Avatar n tn And yes, I found out from the MIMS that Lanoxin is best taken on an empty stomach, My Dr, can not gv Lanoxin for me as a Maintenance Drug, since my BP is 90/60. And she can not see anything with my heart as showed in my 2D Echo with Doppler. Now she is considering hormonal imbalance, since I am entering a peri menopausal stage. But she advised me too to take a Stress Test to chck on my physio electrical activity. I will keep u posted. I work with animals too and that keeps me active.
Avatar n tn Also, I researched Lanoxin and that sounds like it may be a drug suitable for him. Any advice you may have would be great thanks.
Avatar n tn Is amiodarone as safe a drug as digoxin or linoxin for A-fib as far as long term side affects are concerned?
Avatar n tn Is your uncle taking Lanoxin (heart medication)? Lanoxin has shown to increase the pumping strength. My father had a weak heart beat and after being on Lanoxin for about 10 years now, he's heart beat is strong (very strong per taking his pulse). Ask your uncle's doctor about Lanoxin.
329165 tn?1515471990 Went to Cardio for 6 weeks check-up and he prescribed LANOXIN 0,25mg with high starting dosage (had to take 4 tabs the 1st day). It is now 7 days later and still no improvement. My HR is still fast and BP low and I now have extra systoles/irregular HR. Should I stop using LANOXIN and switch to SOTACOR (I used it pre-op). I had Ablation done in Nov. 2007 to treat PSVT. Thank you!
Avatar m tn hi guys today my hiv positive friend cut him self on a card i dont know what the card was made of, possible paper and plasitc or cardboard box, i immediately cut my self on the same card trying to take it of him.
Avatar f tn My mother is on coreg .325 and docs just took her off of lanoxin hoping that is causing platelet drop, they aren't sure yet. today heart rate at 142 bpm at rest. All this started happening feb 21. before that heart rate around 100. The problem with more coreg or other beta blockers is the fact her bp too low 96 over 50 the majority of the time. I am soo scared for her, lanoxin prevents heart attack yet it could be the cause of very low platelets and she could bleed to death. catch 22.
Avatar f tn You should have an ID card on you at all times explaining what and how much you are taking. If it's trauma situation, Fentanyl will work. If it's a planned surgery, the usually switch you to a fast acting opiate in advance. The important thing is to be open and honest from now on, then people know how to adjust to your situation. Be careful, no unnecessary risks, and keep working your program, you will be fine. Are you in a sub program now, they should have told you this stuff?
Avatar f tn The medications really helps and are best. My dad was taking Lanoxin to strength his heart pump and I took his pulse the other day and was it strong. There was quite a change that I felt from before he started taking it. I am glad to hear that you are improving and feeling better. Take care.
Avatar f tn To reduce the risk of an error, prescribers should print all orders for Lanoxin and levothyroxine and include the purpose for each drug on all prescriptions. Both the mg dose and the mcg conversion should be listed in all levothyroxine orders and on product labels, such as "levothyroxine 100 mcg (0.1 mg)" or "Synthroid 0.1 mg (100 mcg).
Avatar n tn My baby girl is 2 months and 2 weeks old her doctor told me se suffers from VSD muscular 4mm, ASD2 4mm,PHT and he gave her medicine lasix and lanoxin but she became lazy, less active and always sleepy without appetite.
Avatar n tn He was then discharged and is now recovering at home. He was taking Lanoxin and diuretics and did not have any swelling or breathlessness. So after 3 months the doctor stopped these medications (without checking the EF). He went for his checkup this month (9 months after surgery) and his echo shows an EF of 40%. The doctor also mentions "Mild LV Dysfunction". So now the doctor has put him back on Lanoxin and diuretics. Is this heart failure where the prognosis is poor?
Avatar f tn Okay, I know this sounds super horrible but I'm just wondering if anyone knows if they do routine drugs tests on newborns. I smoked weed a month ago now because I was stressed out beyond belief and I'm just really paranoid they're going to test my baby for it. I'm 31 weeks now. I live in Colorado and have a medical marijuana card. Although it expired a few months ago. I'm worried they might test me or my baby for that reason exactly.
162069 tn?1224677411 ___________________________________________________________ If you took Digitek, Cardoxin, Lanoxin or Lanoxicaps and suffered from overdose, it could be due to taking defective tablets containing twice the active ingredient as approved.
Avatar f tn My blood pressure is high 160/94 and doc prescribed an ACE inhib for me. How will this effect my PVC/PAC's? Help or hurt? Right now I take lanoxin .25 for PVCs. HBP runs in the family so I was doomed anyway.
Avatar f tn There was this card with an open staple on it on my door step and I cut my finger on it. If the person who sent this card had HIV and pricked their finger on it, is it possible for me to get HIV.
Avatar n tn Yeah I know they do that one before they let you leave because if either of you fail they get child protective services involved.. I was just concerned about my doctors office not telling me everything they test and check for I feel that we should be told everything they are doing to keep us well informed because my friend failed a drug test and I didn't even know they were drug testing people.
572651 tn?1530999357 There are so many drug assistance programs out there for us in the US who are not on medicare/medicaid or live in Massachussetts. I'm thinking it might be helpful to start a thread of some of these so everyone is taking full advantage of the drug companies' generosity. Ok, you know I'm being facetious with that comment - they want us to take their drug and are bribing us to do so by helping with the copay.
Avatar m tn If you never shared IV drug works or never had unprotected penetrative sex with an HIV+ person then you had no HIV risk and you are safe.You can shake hands with an HIV+ person a thousand times a day and you won't get infected.Social contact is zero risk.
Avatar f tn I know in kansas even if you are on a medical card they do not unless they suspect drug abuse. Even more if they are using their findings for criminal procedure i.e. cps or criminal charges they have you sign documents stating that is what you are doing. You have to sign these documents because of doctor-patient confidentility and if you dont sign them tgen they probably wont let you leave the hospital.
572651 tn?1530999357 What amazes me is Teva makes more off the US market than all the rest of the countries of the world combined. It can't be research and development which makes it more expensive for the US market since that happens in Israel. I do not think it is because they sell us more. I think it more likely they charge us more. Especially since countries like Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom buy all the drugs and have more bargaining power.
4703993 tn?1379768388 I haven't tried this, but Lanoxin (same thing) was offered to me by one doctor and I mentioned it to Heiferly who explained how it could be a possible fit in my situation (I have P.O.T.S. and I.S.T. and have had high catecholamine/inactive metabolites of same numbers here and there in the past with testing. But I was concerned when I read about possible toxicity so I didn't do it.
