Common Questions and Answers about Antihistamine and prostate

antihistamine

Avatar m tn 2nd question is after stopping the intake of antihistamine that effect the prostate, woiuld these be a short term effect and the prostate goes back to how it was? or does it remain in the worser condition? here's what i found about the Seldane: "Seldane was approved by the FDA in 1985 as the first prescription antihistamine" "After Seldane was approved, the FDA began receiving reports of fatal and serious instances of cardiac arrhythmias.
666921 tn?1254990618 I personally don't take antihistamine but just some advice I read that - antihistamine suppresses the immune system - never thought about it before - they work like steroids - some very good advice on another forum was - do not take antihistamine if you have lyme I am sure some of you already knew this but just thought I would mention it
Avatar n tn If yours do not have this effect - no problem. Google anticholinergic and antihistamine and you will find lots of sources. lancastrian.
Avatar n tn What kind were you taking?
Avatar f tn I went to a urologist...checked my psa.. 0.50, physical examination of my prostate normal..urine tests, culture and yeast urine test..normal..the urologist said to me you do not have a prostate problem but i am going to give you this drug called proscar anyway..this will cure any problem that you do have..Well it didn't....same problem after ejaulation only. This only happens 12 hours after ejaculation..otherwise i'm fine..no problems urinating, no pain.
Avatar f tn My allergist told me to try Claritin tabs instead of gel caps but I took one after having my allergy shot and I broke out in hives again. Now all the pollen is out and my eyes are really itchy and red and I have a hard time seeing at work. I tried taking Atarax last night to see if that would help more than Benadryl. Big mistake since I woke up broke out in bad hives. I had to wait to get home to take benadryl since I am not 100% certain that Benadryl does not give me hives.
Avatar f tn I personally take a claritin everyday. I have seasonal allergies and pet dander makes my eyes and face really itchy. My Dr OKed it and said its totally safe. Hope this helps.
612551 tn?1450022175 I had prior to the vet visit above been given Wilson one half Benedryl 25 mg Antihistamine morning and evening, in the hope it would clear up the paw problem. A couple weeks of this did not produce any improvement. I then checked and saw recommendations to use 1 - 2 mg per pound. As Wilson is j20+ pounds my does level was low. I have decided to continue giving him Benadryl but now one 25 mg capsule morning and night. Hope it keeps his paws and general itch problems under control.
351404 tn?1299489130 Had an eczema with itching outbreak on forehead area and took a Benadryl antihistamine pill. Fine for 24 hours, then took another and that night had a three hour AFib episode. I remember about 20 years ago, I last took an antihistamine and got flutters. Is there a connection between AFib and antihistamine, ie have others an opinion or experience of this?
Avatar n tn I had a Henia last year 2007 this pinched my bladder but gave the symptoms of a Urine Infection, I saw another Urologist who gave me the finger in the rectum examination, between the exam and blood tests the Urologist told me I had the prostate of a 35 year old and had just a 5% chance of ever getting prostate cancer. So there you have it, I can see no problem in frequent masturbation and yes it may help your problem. Good Luck.
Avatar f tn It's not Swiss oaks, it's Swiss oats. The main ingredient is green oats, which is well known for increasing testosterone and for relaxing and regulating the nervous system. It also contains nettles, though I don't really know why. This is usually used, again, to help the male organs, particularly the prostate, and as an antihistamine. It's high in minerals, but hard to see how it would do anything for depression, but it couldn't hurt.
Avatar m tn There is a book that came out last year discussing prostate surgery pros and cons...written by a doctor and a patient. very informative...sorry I forgot the title.
Avatar f tn  Could my prostate be calcified and producing a hard prostate and continued rising PSA for the last 6 years with no signs or symptoms? I have masturbated at least 3 to five times a week for the last 11 years because my wife can no longer have intercourse due to an operation and also discovered that masturbation could prevent prostate cancer. How true it is I am not sure but why not just in case it is true.
Avatar n tn You should try steam inhalation, warm saline gargles, saline nasal drops and oral antihistamine medications and see if it helps with your symptoms. If you have symptoms of reflux, you should try some antireflux, antinausea medications. The cough could be if you are a chronic smoker. If the cough still persists, it would be best to consult your doctor and also get a chest xray done to rule out a chest infection.
Avatar f tn My 30 yr old daughter has this now. I had been on a Selenium/Vitamin E prostate study for 6 yrs and looking into link to Selenium.
Avatar n tn If your dog is neutered, it will stop the levels of testosterone, which could cause prostate swelling and prostate cancer too. It would take a while to max. effect because he'd still have SOME testosterone in his system for a bit. But it would be a quicker option than medication. But it would be a good option only if he's generally in good fitness and condition for his age. The anaesthetic might stress him if he has heart or lung problems, or some other health problem.
Avatar f tn Have you had your prostate checked? There is a connection between testosterone and prostate cancer, BUT please know that it is very rare in men under 40. That would be unlikely. But you should have your prostate checked. There are also a lot of information linking low testosterone to prostatitis and prostate pain. So, yes, it could be involved. But pain is an odd thing where it is felt in one place but coming from somewhere else.
Avatar n tn I also had no prostate problems prior nor did I have a family history of Prostate cancer.Towards the end of last year I was diagnosed with stage 3 prostate cancer, gleason 10. My psa was 18.1. I have since had the DiVinci surgery (which I fully recommend) and I am not undergoing radiation. None of the existed before Spiriva!!!! I found out that if you are on Spiriva 2 years - 5 years your chances of getting prostate cancer is 50%. If you are over 60 (I am 62) the chances are 90%.
Avatar f tn Well, management protocol of prostate cancer is not as well defined as other cancers and largely depends on the stage of the cancer. For localized lesions, gamma knife may be a suitable option with results as good as surgery and better results for maintenance of urinary continence. It would be best to discuss the pros and cons and the expected prognosis in detail with your treating oncologist. Hope this is helpful. Take care!
Avatar m tn I am just concerning would it be hiding in prostate and not killed by antibiotics (as antibiotics could not go into the think layer of tissue of prostate and that prostate has a complex structure)
Avatar m tn The primary symptom was extreme discomfort in the actual prostate, and a constant desire to urinate to alleviate the pain. I was given antibiotics and the symptoms disappeared fairly rapidly. Now I am experiencing symptoms that are similar, but slightly different. The tension in my prostate is noticeable, but not as persistent as the first occurrence (assuming that this is also a prostate infection).
Avatar n tn Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is an antihistamine and is used to treat sneezing, runny nose, itching and other allergies. So, as mentioned above it dries out the secretions and hence is not recommended in lung disorders. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar n tn In general it is believed that asymptomatic men (which would mean without any symptoms referable to the prostate, and indirectly probably have a smaller prostate size) would also harbor prostate cancer as they age. About a third of such men would, but majority may remain without symptoms and die of other things such as old age.
