Avatar m tn The VA [ Veterans Administration ] has looked into using fluvastatin as a treatment for HSV with some impressive results. One patient had a 1/50th load count after 4 weeks of treatment. Some others showed dramatic reductions in load counts also. Has anyone out there tried this treatment ? It does have FDA approval as a treatment for high blood pressure.

1579934 tn?1431268911 I just read a recent article (March 31) about Fluvastatin enhancing HCV response in combo with SOC. www.esciencenews.com Search Fluvastatin Has anyone on the forum had first hand experience with it? I'm just searching for all options.

They found fluvastatin to be the most effective at killing the virus, and lovastatin to be the least effective, but all had some negative impact on the virus. I just thought that this was an interesting find and since it was in the AMA journal, thought I would pass it along for what it's worth.
Avatar n tn Accordingly, Plavix may interfere with the metabolism of phenytoin, tamoxifen, tolbutamide, warfarin, torsemide, fluvastatin, and many non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, but there are no data with which to predict the magnitude of these interactions. Caution should be used when any of these drugs is co administered with Plavix.
Avatar f tn as they are not wanting to use that term for say, but the government says that they are tired of the rising cost to which they are having to pay as I never knew that gov. paid for the tx to begin. Anyone else in the future what are they going to have to look at as this seems to be a growing disease.
Avatar m tn If you are going on a statin - which are safe for people with Hep C, by the way - you might consider asking for fluvastatin, which has been shown to inhibit HCV replication in vitro, and has the same efficacy and heart protection as lipitor or crestor. Congrats on svr and Good luck!
Avatar m tn There is currently a Phase II study going on with Fluvastatin along with regular SOC treatment and because Fluvastatin, like Alinia, is already an approved drug, it would be available sooner and more easily than the PI drugs, for example, currently in trial. http://www.hepatitis-central.com/mt/archives/2008/04/fluvastatin_low.html These links really made me sit up and take notice.
Avatar m tn I want to become a mother again. I have a 19 y/o. I am a newly wed. My husband has no children we are considering IVF but it is so costly. Not sure if I am able d/t high FSH. didn't get result for AMH as of yet. But if its not possible for me to have one biologically we are considering using DE. My question. Is it cheaper using a family or friend as a donor in comparison using an anonymous donor. Where I am living, it cost $16,500 for DE...IVF cost almost $20,000.
Avatar f tn Oh my goodness! That is so expensive. Here in new zealand all medical care is absolutely free. It seems unethical to charge someone to give birth!
Avatar f tn Can anyone give me a ballpark of the cost for the suppressant drugs after a transplant. Just want to get an idea, know no one can give me exacts but any info would help. Thanks.
Avatar n tn umm in the usa without insurance, n im chronic.
Avatar m tn hello again, thanks to all the people that responded. was wondering about the cost of meds. interferon and ribavirin, im checking with my ins. to see what they will cover. i may have misspoke about this thing on hepititusccure.net i dont think it is herbal? it deals with fatty liver tissue. but its only 50 bucks to read about it so i dont really have anything to lose. going back to doc in 3 mo. not sure why till i decide on tx. if tx takes care of virus, do people go back to normal lifestyle?
Avatar m tn What is the cost of 4th generation hiv elisa test for antibodies in srl diagnostics..
Avatar n tn The difference between the full cost of a treatment (which the uninsured often are charged), and the amount the insurance company tells them they will pay is often quite a bit. If you have cash and offer to pay up front (for a discount) you may get charged less than what they can get out of the insurance company, because it's less hassle and instant money for them. Just a thought, even if you had to borrow the money. Will your Endo accept results from another facility?
Avatar f tn In what country are you? In the USA, it is anywhere from $18,000 to $30,000.
Avatar f tn Anyways, the rep told me that ribavarin only comes in 200mg and a 3 months supply would cost me $10.00 co-pay. The peg/interferon would be a 30.00 co-pay for a month. This was the pharmacy and member service that said that. Does this seem right? I always thought tx was expensive like in the thousand of dollars. I have Kaiser but I don't have the deluxe plan or anything just the basic.
Avatar n tn A year ago, my doctor gave me Lescol/Fluvastatin to take because I am a high risk for heart disease due to genetics and diabetes. At that time my Lipids were within normal range. After a month, ALT/AST results were very elevated. and medication was discontinued. Since then, I've gone through ultrasound, HiDa Scan and finally diagnose of fatty liver. The Gastroenterologist recommended Liver Biopsy to check for liver damage.
