Pregnancy should not be considered a contraindication to oseltamivir or zanamivir use. Pregnant women might be at higher risk for severe complications from swine influenza, and the benefits of treatment or chemoprophylaxis with zanamivir or oseltamivir likely outweigh the theoretical risks of antiviral use.
566175 tn?1278430472 Treatment and chemoprophylaxis The currently circulating swine influenza A (H1N1) virus is sensitive to the neuraminidase inhibitor antiviral medications zanamivir and oseltamivir, but is resistant to the adamantane antiviral medications, amantadine and rimantadine. Pregnant women who meet current case-definitions for confirmed, probable or suspected swine influenza A (H1N1) infection should receive empiric antiviral treatment.

11062655 tn?1414987783 htm Hepatotoxicity Despite widespread use, there is little evidence that oseltamivir when given orally causes liver injury, either in the form of serum enzyme elevations or clinically apparent liver disease. A proportion of patients with acute influenza A may have minor serum enzyme elevations during the acute illness, but these appear to be independent of therapy and are not exacerbated by osteltamivir.

How Buprenorphine Works Buprenorphine (Subutex) is an FDA approved drug that is used to treat opiate (narcotic) dependence and prevent its relapse, to decrease the withdrawal symptoms when getting off opiates and in some specific circumstances to treat chronic pain.
Avatar f tn Honestly, how do YOU react to HER when she's bad? Do you react loudly, wave your arms around, yell, get mad? They learn their reactions from us, and I am NOT saying that you're a bad parent (so please don't think so..we've all been there!) but if you want her to listen calmly, respond calmly, and learn discipline, you need to evaluate how you approach her. Most kids have the odd tantrum. This is OK and natural.
Avatar f tn s sudden appearance might have been a side effect of TAMIFLU which is now known to rich (oseltamivir substance) the blood-brain barrier and cause irreversible dammages to brain. As a conclusion, TAMIFLU appeared to be responsable of a "medecinal intoxication" causing the narcolepsy-cataplexy I suddenly suffer since then. Several Years after, we hear about narcolepsy cases caused by the massive H1N1 vaccinations...
Avatar m tn Welcome to the forum. Responding to the title, before reading your actual question: This probably is a good example of reading lists of HIV/AIDS manifestations without understanding of context. Sure, some people with HIV have low lymphocyte counts, especially in advance AIDS (but not generally with recently acquired infection).
Avatar f tn I think it actually works we just did the deed and wow I hope it keeps up wish me luck ladies
Avatar n tn suboxone is a lifesaver, there is too much negative mis-information out there, how can ANYTHING be as dangerous as addiction itself...? i do believe in working the treatment with therapy, i feel it is a must!!! but feeling well enough, not high, not sick just normal so we are able to tend to these underlying issues that we have ignored for so long is just such a good feeling...suboxone DOES work!! CONGRATULATIONS TO] YOU!!! and keep up the good work... i am also on sub...
Avatar f tn Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn Is there nothing in this world that excites you - that makes you glad to be alive? Do you know how short life is and how precious each moment is? The drama and emotion of detox or finally coming to grips that your addiction is destroying your life can distort reality. You suggest that you've given up after only two years. I say that you've just started. You have too many days and too much joy ahead of you.
Avatar n tn Although I don't disagree with the alternative options, I would say that we must be very careful if using anything herbal. We are not sure of the full make up of some products and it could interact with your normal medication. So just stay safe along those lines. We all hate benzos. But at times we have to submit to the fact that they are the only form of medication that do the trick. I have been hooked on xanax in the past and it was a nightmare tablet.
1102528 tn?1257811511 Keep going back to your doctor until they find something that works. Hang in there, it will get better for you after the next surgery is done. I am curious as to why the docs are waiting so long to reconnect you? It's usually only 3 months.
