Avatar f tn There are many philosophies, but one protocol suggests albuterol should be used first and ipratropium five minutes later. Try the foradil (formoterol fumarate inhalation power). It too is expensive, but the company provides free samples.
Avatar n tn You and he/she will have to resort to other preparations, to include a different inhaled steroid, such as Flovent® HFA Inhalation Aerosol (fluticasone propionate), either alone or in combination with a long-acting bronchodilator, like Serevent® Inhalation Aerosol (salmeterol xinafoate) or Foradil® Aerolizer™ (formoterol fumarate inhalation powder), such a combination being either Advair® HFA (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) Inhalation Aerosol or Symbicort® (budesonide/formoterol fumarat
Avatar n tn Does Symbicort 80/4.5 (budesonide 80 mcg and formoterol fumarate dihydrate 4.5 mcg) Inhalation Aerosol effect the eyes? Does it raise the interocular pressure if used with known glaucoma? This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/371195'>Borderline Glaucoma and Steroids</a>.
Avatar n tn This would include a long-acting bronchodilator, such as Serevent® Inhalation Aerosol (salmeterol xinafoate), Foradil® Aerolizer™ (formoterol fumarate inhalation powder) or Spiriva® HandiHaler® (tiotropium bromide inhalation powder) along with an inhaled steroid. Another potentially helpful, oral medicine is called theophylline. Your doctor may also want to prescribe this. You should have your blood oxygen level checked, in case it is low and you would need supplemental oxygen.
Avatar m tn I was also taking anti-fungals having developed thrush from probably formoterol fumarate inhalers. I am also dealing with ringworm. Nothing grew from the cultures taken from blood, sputum, or a specimen from endoscopy. The pneumonia abated and while at home I felt remarkably better. Then my girlfriend noticed my hair was falling out at an alarming rate. While looking at the hair in my hand I noticed my fingernails had no cuticles! Feet are also affected.
Avatar n tn The cough cleared up for the most part, as did the wheeze, but the meds had serious side effects – I stopped the Levaquin after 8 doses, because it was making me depressed and exhausted, which I still am. I am also still coughing a bit (producing a little mucus), and feel short of breath, but my lung function is at 92% and I have optimal peak flow (475). I’ve cut back my meds to 220mg flovent twice a day, and albuterol when necessary. 1.
Avatar n tn You should have another follow-up x-ray, now. The prescription of Symbicort® (budesonide/formoterol fumarate dehydrate) Inhalation Aerosol does not mean you have asthma. It only means that your doctor suspects that you might have it. Given that it is now nearly 4 months since the bout of pneumonia, you deserve further diagnostic evaluation by a lung specialist.
Avatar f tn They generally heal and there is nothing to worry about. You are right about the lingering effects. Sometimes it takes weeks for things to "settle down". Meanwhile your life revolves around walking one block to the next leaning on mailboxes. Use an expectorant, even if you don't seem to need it. Guanifesin, slow release. A thin film of mucus will cause lots of oxygen transfer problems.
Avatar m tn 25mg because my heart beats go up every so often, the last time was 19th March when they went to 160bpm. The side effects are terrible I have felt really depressed, hardly any energy, sick and my eyes have been very sore. Is there a Beta Blocker without all these side effects.
746512 tn?1388807580 Symbicort for example includes both Pulmicort, as well as an LABA called Formoterol. Another example is Advair (Flovent/Salmeterol). I would definitely recommend seeing your Pulmonary Specialist.
Avatar f tn Some medications have both a steroid plus formoterol. My feeling is to try the formoterol fumarate alone, and see if that solves the problem before going to the dual-medication formulas.
Avatar m tn or the tested new drug tenofovir alafenamide fumarate? this is of obvious interest with regard to any side effects experienced, since the bodywide systemic drug exposure with TAF is over 90% less compared with viread.
15432957 tn?1440518782 Below is the description of my symptoms: DYSPNEA (symptoms of the last 10 days) -Hard to breathe all day. -Shallow breathing only. Deep breathing has no effect and tires me. -Gets worse after eating. -Tired of breathing. Every day all day is a roller coaster of a hard time breathing and a very hard time breathing. -There's a constant squeezing in the left side of my chest. -Weak physically to walk. Going up stairs isn't easy anymore.
Avatar f tn Hi Rox68, I am on Tecfidera, and have been on it since I was dx'd - over 4 years ago. For the first 4-6 weeks I dealt with intermittent nausea and no other gastro symptoms. It was an odd sort of nausea because it came on randomly. I would take a pill and then 4 hours later, out of the blue, nausea. But get this, I could still be hungry and think of food and be OK.
Avatar f tn ContraVir reports data shows CMX157 more potent against HBV than Gilead Viread ContraVir Pharmaceuticals (CTRV) announced preliminary data dramatizing the unique properties of CMX157, the company's highly potent lipid prodrug of the successful antiviral drug tenofovir, or TFV. CMX157 was shown to be 60-fold more active than tenofovir against the hepatitis B virus, or HBV, based on in vitro studies.
488198 tn?1493875092 Since Fumaderm’s primary component, like Tecfidera, is dimethyl fumarate, its side effect profile is similar to Tecfidera’s. Through 20 years of use, the most prevalent Fumaderm side effects have been gastric disturbances (stomach ache, vomiting, and diarrhea) and flushing of the skin, which, according to a paper prepared by Britain’s NHS (click here), can lead to discontinuance and/or noncompliance in 30% to 40% of patients.
Avatar n tn A similar drug, Formoterol (Combined with the inhaled steroid, Budesonide, in the drug Symbicort) while in the same class, might not have the same properties and perhaps might not exhibit the same cardiac stimulatory effect as Serevent. You might want to discuss this with your doctor. Another approach might be to avoid these two combination drugs, Advair and Symbicort, and substitute individual inhalert for each of the two drugs (the inhaled steroid and the beta-agonist).
7444579 tn?1392527229 It is most effective if used less than 5 days after intercourse. Yes, it is safe to take three iron tablets per day--it may have GI side effects such as constipation. Hope this helps!
Avatar m tn One of the newer medications I like is Foradil, in an aerosolizer (formoterol fumerate inhalation powder). The down side is, it is pretty expensive. It comes in little 12 mcg packets in the U.S., and is very long lasting. It has a number of downsides, and I suggest you read the PDR carefully to review those side effects, including elevation of blood pressure. The other issue is that asthma is often connected with long-standing encapsulated bacterial infections.
1356964 tn?1302087435 Vet is suggesting epogen but I have read Epogen can have side effects and can quit working for an animal anywhere from 1-4 months of treatment. I am enquiring about an iron supplement to try first instead of injections, b/c her HCT has not follow under 20 as of yet . Vet said it was not at crucial stage as of yet so would an iron supplement be ok to try right now , of course with the ok of her vet ?
