1654058 tn?1407159066 Karen, Your platelets are already low, and NSAIDs can increase the risk for bleeding; imho, acetaminophen over the ibuprofen, hands down. With low platelets from tx and a compromised liver and kidney system, any of the NSAIDs are contra-indicated for you (includes Motrin, Advil, Aleve). Tylenol is not to be taken indiscriminately either, though. With cirrhosis, no more than 2000 mg per day max (that means no more than 4 Extra Strength Tylenol in any 24 hour period).
Avatar f tn I have had really bad issues with walking, now requiring a can, for about a year. Diagnosed with Spinal Stenosis. It's gotten so bad that I started doing research. I have been doing 5-day energy shots daily for 6 months now - about 40mg of B6 per day (was doing emergen-c's before that). I'm thinking my walking, tingling may indeed be B6 toxicity and am going for a blood test this afternoon. I've gotten a lot of good information from this group - thank you.

Avatar f tn I had knee surgery a year ago and have been taking approximately 400 mg of ibuprohen daily for pain. Can this be a temporary toxicity to the pain med with a return to higher level of my GFR upon cessation? Praying in Texas!
620923 tn?1452915648 Interestingly, the pop up ad near this was for vitamins for withdrawal from opiates. I couldn't tell what they are. I'm sure some suggestions could be found online or right here at medhelp. I found suggestions for lots of Vit. B & C for toxicity. I did this myself for serotonin toxicity, which took much longer than any source claimed. I'm off everything except ibuprofen (but I am trying a very small dose of mirtazapine at night, to sleep).

Avatar n tn s stomach, and if the dog continues to be dosed with ibuprofen, it leads to kidney failure and, eventually, death. Most of the time, cases of ibuprofen toxicity are those in which the owners thought they were helping their dogs by dosing them to alleviate pain from injuries or arthritis, or those cases where a dog has gotten into the medication on its own and has helped itself to several pills or has eaten most of a bottle at once.

Avatar m tn My B6 test came back 240 which is very high. I am having all of the symptoms related to B6 toxicity. I do not take vitamin supplements and have a healthy diet. What can cause me to have such a high b6 level if I am not taking supplements? My doctor asked me to give him a month to figure it out but I am in pain and want some answers.
Avatar m tn I have taken care of TWO patients in the past; one who had tylenol toxicity and the other one had ibuprofen toxicity. Both patients were going into liver failure in which was caught in time. Both thought is was ok to take more than the RECOMMENDED amount of medication. Please be careful.
Avatar m tn Which pain med has a more negative effect on the liver after long term use, ibuprofen or darvocet?
Avatar n tn I have recently taken a blood test for insurance purpose and the results were the following: AST- 25, ALT- 46, GGT- 90. I take a pretty consistent dosage of 600- 800 mg. of Ibuprophen almost daily. I also enjoy a few glasses of wine throughout the week. After doing some research, I realize that I need to cut out the Ibuprophen, as well as the alcohol intake. Should I be extremely alarmed about these numbers? If so, what can I do to get the numbers where they need to be?
Avatar f tn Studies have demonstrated that at certain dosages, ibuprofen can stress the liver and elevate liver enzymes in people with Hepatitis C. Ibuprofen must be used with extreme caution in the later stages of liver disease and for those on interferon therapy. 3. Aspirin – (Bayer, Anacin, Excedrin and others) reduces fever, relieves pain, and acts as an anti-inflammatory and blood thinner.
801188 tn?1241647626 Does that not mean that quite apart from the same giving up the drug that we all face, these guys have a huge problem with respect to liver toxicity? Or have I missed something completely? Are they either getting pure hydro or extracting it which I presume is possible in similar ways to other opiates - I hope I haven't said too much about that, apologies if I have.
Avatar n tn Enema was given and stool was successfully expelled. However, the pain is worse. Hospital released her with Ibuprofen. She went to go see a Gastroenterology doctor who did not know what to do with her so he sent her to a Gynecologist who examined her and recommended a transvaginal ultrasound. But the Gynecologist says this test will not be conclusive. Does anyone have any suggestions for what my daughter should do next?
Avatar m tn Ibuprofen is TOXIC to dogs.....Even a small dose (For a Human headache) can build up and be too much for a dog.....Causes Bleeding Ulcers, Liver Damage, and can be fatal... It is too late to induce vomiting....Your best bet is to get the dog to your Vet! They can try to flush his system with IV's.....Hopefully, to move the chemicals out quicker....They can also give Charcoal to bind the toxins in the stomach....It probably has been too long for this, though.....
Avatar f tn Hi, I have a question. Sometimes I casually contemplate suicide--not very seriously, but more as a curiosity. Yesterday I decided to experiment with what it would be like to take a lot of pills. All I had on hand was ibuprofen, so I took 10,000 mg. It wasn't a suicide attempt, but more of a way to satisfy my curiosity about suicide by OD. However, after doing a little research online, some people seem to think that 10,000 mg can be dangerous.
Avatar n tn If u had the flu u will run extremely high temp I have it and I have body aches can't talk sore throat fever up to 103.2 and can't keep hardly any food or liquids down. I feel lik I been hit by a train!
Avatar n tn I have not heard of a B-6 toxicity. I have heard of deficiency symptoms, but never the other. How much had you been taking. You see, B-6, along with other B vitamins is water soluble, and your body excretes what it does not need, so, this is very new to me.
Avatar n tn It causes liver toxicity, and serious liver damage. Tylenol is one of the leading causes of liver failure in the United States, accounting for an estimated 450 deaths per year. I quit taking Tylenol years ago, I recommend you do the same. I found that Naproxen or "Aleve" is about the safest. Ibuprofen and asprin are hard on the kidneys. I hope this has been helpful!!!
Avatar f tn Please get a complete hormone panel ESH, LH, estrogen, progesterone and see if there is an imbalance. Hormone replacement therapy will help. With metal toxicity, certain chelating agents are given which bind with the metal and remove them from the body. Normal detox diet will not take care of that. It basically increases the antioxidants in the body. Hope this helps. Take care!
Avatar n tn i have been taking ibuprofen for about 2yrs i want to stop how long will it take for my body to be clear of them
408795 tn?1324935675 As I mentioned in a prior posts I am an ex-IV user and I have a question about toxicity. At the end of my using days I had a wake up call, it was in September 2003, I was using alot of illegal drugs. I had been taking loads of valium unprescribed and I did a dime, yes a dime bag of H. I don't like putting this out there but it's really the only way I can get to my question.
Avatar n tn One of my clients has a level of 3000? The previous test was in the order of 2500? I know about general toxicity issues with B6 but is there any research on levels such as these. She displays most of the known symptoms and so does her daughter. Genetic causes could be a question but I can't find any relevant research. Any ideas or pointers please.
Avatar f tn Has anyone heard of any reactions to ibuprofen while pregnant?
