Avatar n tn My son was diagnosed with ADHD with impulsivity at 2 years old. I started medication 2 years ago and he has been on 3mL of Quillivant for the past year. I give it at 7:45 and by 2:30 it has worn off. It has been great and so far the only side effect I have seen is a lack of appetite. At 2:30, the impulsivity starts again so the doctor prescribed him methylin 5mL and that doesn't work at all and upsets his stomach. Has anyone had s similar experience?
Avatar n tn How about you try food supplements that have shown to have equal efficacy to Ritalin,Multiple vitimin with B Complex and Vit C . also Fish oil and been tried by many parents,with success, go into your local whole food store,if you have one called "Sprouts "they are very good and will go online for you to find what you need in a Natural Remedy to help you.If the drugs you have been trying dont work its time to find something less invasive that will, Good Luck.

Avatar f tn My 11 year old son has the following symtoms after a streptosyme infection found in his blood in Nov 2008, and after taking methylin for 5 days in Dec 2008. Could this be related to dystonia and why? 1. frequent blinking 2. painful finger cramping 3. stress induced twitches in left side extremities 4. involuntary movements/jerks in left side extremities 5. muscle stiffness and jerks in left arm, hand, fingers, leg, foot, and toes when trying to relax 6.
Avatar f tn I have even been given Methylin to try and help get me reved up. Does not help either! So, I do not know what else they could possibly have in their bag of tricks for folks like us...But, I hope it is something and soon ;0 Please let me know if you come up w/ something that helps and I shall do the same. I am Thankful for all the "Up" time I have and the bit of energy to go with it.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with secondary autoimmune adrenal insufficiency in December. I feel lousy most of the time, have chronic abdominal pain and abnormal stools, and feel best flat on my back...which doesn't work well for someone who works 12 hour shifts in a busy ER while selling one house, building another, and has 2 teens and a disabled husband, lol. Here's my question. If a person has say diabetes, their meds are based on their blood sugars.
Avatar f tn If you are on triple therapy for genotype 1 and undetectable then your doc is following AASLD protocol for anemia management Anemia developed among recipients of both PIs. Hemoglobin decreases below 10 g/dL (grade 2 toxicity) occurred in 49% of patients who received a BOC regimen compared to 29% of those who received the SOC regimen, whereas 9% had a hemoglobin decline of <8.5 g/dL (grade 3 toxicity).

Avatar m tn ve been found to have extremely low cortisol and have been following the dosing chart on *************************. Basically every 3 or 4 days you increase by 2.5mg if you haven't seen it. Initially I was feeling slightly better on one dose of 2.5mg each morning then a day or two after being on two doses of 2.5mg I started to feel very spaced out, dizzy, exhausted and confused. I read somewhere that ideally you should raise your dose every 2 weeks or so. Would you agree with this?
Avatar n tn He takes stimulant medication (Methylin), and this helps quite abit, particularly with his hyperactivity. It also helps him to focus better. One of my friends has a daughter who is about the same age as our son, and she recently completed a five-week program to help her with attention and memory. The program is called Cogmed Working Memory Training. Do you think this might help our son?
Avatar f tn Usual questions concerning dosing down. I was at 50mg - down to 28 this week. Been going down 5 mg a week. From what I read that is fast but our clinic is over $400 a month and I can't afford it any longer. So far I've been fine, no problems at all. Some anxiety here and there, but that's normal for me. I am just looking for some withdraw stories for people who dosed down to 1mg from a clinic.
259041 tn?1206482847 Dr. Lupo, a question about dosing of Tapazole. I've been on meds for a little over a year. Was doing well for 8 months, then I stopped taking it for a couple of weeks( to see if it was causing muscle pain,was only on 2.5 mgs) Doc increased it to 5 mgs. for 3 months. Went into hypo range, he didn't reduce it... my labs were as follows: tsh-4.21(0.35-5.5) free t-4 -0.84 (0.8-1.9) total t-3- 0.9 (1.10-2.00) low, he said we'd reduce it next time. then 3 months later my tsh was 6.
29837 tn?1414534648 s assistant said and had it clarified today. The double dosing will consist of double Pegasys and the standard, torturous Ribavirin. I would like to know if anyone has undergone this double dosing regiment. If so, how was it? Did you eat and sleep normally? Were you prone to lashing out at your friends? Did you have a hard time breathing? Were you extremely depressed? Was the itching unbelievable? Did most of your hair fall out? Did you finally respond to the double-dosing?
Avatar f tn Can someone tell me the dosing for HC cream if using the cream instead of tablets? I remember the gram weight I think but not how often to use. Is it once a day or several times like the tablets?
