177275 tn?1511755244 “My choice is moxifloxacin with dexamethasone (Ocular Science), which I inject directly into the anterior chamber after cataract surgery. The combination consists of 0.5% moxifloxacin and 0.1% dexamethasone, giving 0.15 cg of this mix. What gets into the eye would be approximately 750 micrograms of the moxifloxacin and 150 micrograms of the dexamethasone. After I’ve taken the cataract out, I check my incisions like I normally would to make sure the incisions are water-tight.
Avatar m tn hey there, badgerMR. to be honest, i took metronidazol just one day after i took my azythromicine (i know, shouldn't self-diagnose), but I took them anyway. and it did not help. I know there's an alternative which is tinidazol but I'm just saying I did take antibiotics against MG myself and it did not help the symptom...
Avatar m tn doxycycline, azithromycin and moxifloxacin. The first two failed to clear my infection and now I have two days that I finished the moxifloxacin 400 mg( 10 days treatment) clearing my symptoms. My question is, Is it possible for the bacteria to reoccur after the moxifloxacin treatment? And if yes what other option are there?
Avatar n tn A recent study was done to show that Myco was only erradicated by 85% of those on the Azithro regiment described, however Avelox ( Moxifloxacin) killed Myco in all cases. Routine is to try described Azithro regimen first and if symtoms still exist Moxifloxacin. Why? I guess so that Myco doesn't become Moxifloxacin resistant. Save the bugs, kill the patient kind of thing. I say take the 400mg a day X 10 day regiment of Moxifloxacin and help yourself.
Avatar n tn has anyone being asked to take dexamethasone due to high 17 OHP result? My 17 OHP was 64.0 and was told that it was too high ( the test was done 5 days after my first day of menstrual period). Now I am in 1st trimester of pregnancy (6 and half weeks). Would like to get some advise urgently!
Avatar f tn Cure rates with moxifloxacin are 100% According to some info I’ve found, and is used after Doxy and az. So id press to get moxifloxacin. moxifloxacin 400 mg daily for 7 to 14 days is the preferred antibiotic regimen.
Avatar m tn But the doctor mentioned that my white blood cell count is slightly higher than normal ( WBC count taken from the swabs, not from my blood work) and mentioned that there might be an infection so she prescribed Avelox (Moxifloxacin), 4 x 400mg once daily. The background is, I am Chinese male, been with my girlfriend for about a year and both of us have been loyal and we were both asymptomatic before this event.
Avatar n tn now only left moxifloxacin hasnt try, seems to be last resort. this bacteria already bothered me for 6 months, really want to get rid of it.
Avatar m tn Decadron® (dexamethasone) 4 mg is not the therapeutic equivalent of Kenalog® (triamcinolone acetonide) 80 mg. Using the Lexi-Calc corticosteroid conversion formula, the ratio of the 2 would be close to 5:1. So it would take Decadron® (dexamethasone) 16 mg to be approximately the equivalent of Kenalog® (triamcinolone acetonide) 80 mg.
Avatar n tn Dexamethasone may increase her IOP so she needs her IOP to be monitored closely.
Avatar n tn does dexamethasone cause a cycle change in my period? im taking dexamethasone now for NCAH. I am currently going thru alot of symptoms such as super bloated, frequent urination, larger and darker nipple and areola, queasy in the morning, more tired than usual, hungry all the time and some heart burn. Am i pregnant or is this the dexamethasone ?????
Avatar f tn Hi, we are not doctors on these sites but I am a microbiologist and can give you some advice. It is rare to have Moxifloxacin resistance but it does happen. Since you both still have symptoms. Have you re-tested after treatment? If so I would wait about a week before re-testing to get the antibiotic out of your system. Yes usually after treatment of up to 14 days you should be symptom free unless it is a resistant strain or you have something else causing the problem.
Avatar m tn t offer at the time and this test confirmed i have mycoplasma gen. He also took a swab to develop in the lab and he said moxifloxacin 400mg was fast effective to the bacteria but there was a part of the bacteria that was resistant. He still gave me a 20 day course and its been a week since i've finished it and yes the infection is still there. My symptoms is not as bad as some other sufferers, slight discharge in the mornings and tingles around the tip but not as much as before.
Avatar n tn I am 34 and was referred by endocrine doctor to take Dexamethasone Oral (1000mg) for a test. i'm suppose to take the pill at night and have a blood test in the morning. I have chronic gastritis and suffered before several horrible attacks (I fainted and almost couldn't breath). I had serious anemia (low ferritin & iron levels )for almost 3 years because of this infection and it took me long time to fix it.
Avatar m tn There are a couple other antibiotics that can be prescribed if NGU is persistent, Erythromycine or Moxifloxacin. However, I would only use Moxifloxacin as a last resort, as it can have some very harsh and lasting side effects. In addition, if it's fungal related (Trich) they can also treat you with an alternative regimen of metronizadole. Return to your doctor and discuss persistent NGU with him and CDC guidelines for testing and treating: http://www.cdc.
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with pneumonia 6 weeks ago. I was on oral antibiotics for 2 days, then admitted with an IV drip for 3 days (levifloxacin, as I'm allergic to penicillin-based drugs) then given a 5 day course of oral clarithromyacin. I rested for 2 more weeks after finishing the antibiotics but was still coughing yellow mucus and feeling tired with moderate/mild activity.
Avatar f tn Azithromycin has a high resistance, I know Moxifloxacin is also getting high resistance. Have you tried any of these drugs?
Avatar f tn Doctor prescribed azithromycin 2x500mg first day and next four days 500mg... isn’t that too much? I read that one day treatment includes 2x500mg. So he could have got it orally also?
Avatar m tn Are Tobramycin and /or Dexamethasone drops effective against corneal ulcers?
Avatar m tn Dexamethasone, serum, cortisol AM, ACTH Plasma tested. My doctor had me do the dexamethasone suppression test. I had my levels tested when she said at 8am and my cortisol came back below range at 0.8. The range was 4.0-22.0. Could this very low level explain the weight gain? What does this low level mean?
Avatar m tn Because the cipro gave mild relief he put me on a 7 day course of Moxifloxacin. It seems to erradicate the stuff in most studies where doxy failed. I just started the mox today about 3 hours ago. Not sure what else could cause persistent urethritis for over a month. Any other ideas if this doesn't work?
Avatar n tn Different bacteria can respond to different medication
Avatar f tn Can someone help? Had 10mg dexamethasone to suppress my cortisol level! Blood taken at 9 am the following morning and the result is 28?? Can anyone interpret?? Is this normal? Low? Or still high for being supressed?? I'm going insane.....
Avatar m tn After returning to the US, I had tests done again which all came negative, including standard broad spectrum STD testing and even mycoplasma (blood test, not swab) yet symptoms still exist. I have gone through two courses of levofloxacin (30 days) and one course of moxifloxacin (10 days) yet it still persists. The moxifloxacin seemed to have more effectiveness. I've seen several similar posts in this community and hope someone can help or share their experience. Many thanks!
Avatar f tn I want to hear stories of people suffering from infertility..cuz I'm on clomid 100mg 3-7 with dexamethasone 3-12..my third round..I'm scared it won't work for me!
Avatar m tn Be that as it may, with repeated treatments with both doxycycline and azithromycin, you may wish to talk to your doctor about a course of moxifloxacin. Your situation is a difficult one and moxifloxacin has proven to be effective against chlamydia, mycoplasma genitalium and gets into the prostate well. Hope this helps.
