Avatar m tn Lens implants are only "FDA-approved" for cataract patients; however doctors are not legally restricted to using them only for cataract patients. It is the doctor's perogative to use them strictly for refractive purposes as they see fit, so it would be totally between you and the doctor. Be aware of all the risks, however. They are significantly greater than cornea-based refractive surgery.
1052851 tn?1307741160 I recently switched over from Quetiapine to Zeldox, as I had gained 30lbs in 2 mths with the Quetiapine, and this was affecting my self confidence, as well as not being able to fit into my jeans. I studied up on Zeldox, and it was promoted to give you the benefits of Quetiapine, but with minimal weight gain, so after discussing it with my Dr., I thought I would give it a try. The first month, I could not sleep.
Avatar f tn It is often activating though so if you have that problem you could ask your psychiatrist if you could take it in the morning. Along with Abilify and Geodon, Fanapt and Saphris are two new FDA approved antipsychotics (approved for bipolar as well) that have less of a potential for weight gain. See what happens and keep informed and discuss available options with your psychiatrist.
1052851 tn?1307741160 My GP switched me over to Zeldox, as I was gaining weight rapidly on Quetiapine, however the side effects from Zeldox, such as not being able to sleep, vomitting, feeling like my throat was closing, shakes, dizziness, severe heart palpatations, I got off the Zeldox and went back on the Quetiapine. What is the ingrediant in Zeldox that would cause these hyper side effects?
Avatar m tn There is Abilify of course and a new antipsychotic Saphris was just FDA approved (note it works like all current antipsychotics, the next generation ones I've posted about are years off): http://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/Newsroom/PressAnnouncements/ucm177401.
Avatar f tn It said it detects the antibodies in the blood and that it is FDA Approved. So will the results to this test be accurate? The risk of unprotected sex was about two years ago. Also when I got mono last year my doctor did an oral swab test... But i'm not sure if she was just doing it to detect mono or if she was seeing if there were any indications of HIV but she came to me and said she was going to do a blood culture and then she confirmed it was mono.
Avatar f tn Hi! I'm just trying to do some research for my friend ... She's been on Quetiapine (an atypical antipsychotic) for about 2yrs, but previous to this she was diagnosed with borderline hypothyroidism. Suddenly, she has fallen really ill and blood tests have confirmed minor hypothyroidism (T3 levels around 9)... but the symptoms look like hyper!
Avatar m tn That is a very complicated question. If you visit the FDA site they have information on what are called "elective replacement indications", as well as full discussions on the various reasons for ,pacemaker failure. They also have detailed physician's manuals on various models of Pacemaker.
Avatar f tn I am a GP ( family doctor) in the Uk been advised by my oncologist to start either one of these drugs. I saw a paper from canada9 funded by novartis suggesting the femara have shown better survival figures than tamoxifen. Is femara better than arimedex? have you seen this paper.
1052851 tn?1307741160 I am currently on 200mg Quetiapine and 30mg Cipralex in the morning. 100mg Quetiapine at noon, and 300mg Quetiapine at night, along with 50mg Clonazapam. I tried taking Zeldox, as I gained a lot of weight from the Quetiapine, but the Dr. made it an add on and kept me on the Quetiapine as well. I had very bad side effects, and got off the Zeldox immediately. I told my doctor about it, and she changed the Zeldox, which was 80mg daily to Abilify, which I take 10mg in the morning and 10mg at noon.
233488 tn?1310693103 http://jetrea.com/ This is a BIG deal in ophthalmology. This medication (I have no commercial financial interest in it) is injected into the eye and often releases traction of the vitreous on the retina. While the FDA approved in for very limited indications (as is their want 'slow and years behind the rest of the world") it appears to help a variety of conditions such as macular holes, macular membranes.
Avatar n tn I was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia during my hospital stay with no indications of any bleeding causing the anemia. Could the daily use of Prilosec be my problem?
5028514 tn?1366828456 Benadryl is in the FDA pregnancy category B. This means that it is not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby. Do not take Benadryl without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant. Infants are especially sensitive to the effects of antihistamines, and side effects could occur in a breast-feeding baby.

534105 tn?1226157177 I was taking 25mg of quetiapine (Seroquel) at night for one month. My doctor told me to stop taking it without reductions because of severe fatigue and somnolence during the day. I am not sure if I am going to have withdrawal problems. Any suggestions?
Avatar m tn Hi there. I have had tachycardia for a long time which is normally around 120 bpm but last night I took my pulse just before I went to bed and it was at 150 bpm. This was at resting. I had an ECG a while ago which was normal. Also I have lost a bit of weight recently and can now feel my pulse in my abdomen just below the ribcage. I am 29, am taking quetiapine as without I don't sleep at all and weigh around 90kg. Just wondering if I should do anything about this?
Avatar f tn I am seeing the Dr this coming week, and am going to give either Abilify, Saphris, Glycine or Fanapt a try, which one, I dont know, whatever would give me the same results as Quetiapine without the weight gain. My weight gain like hazyworld is getting me more depressed, and considering I eat one meal a day, and a couple of snacks, I realize it is the medication that is causing the weight gain...
644988 tn?1236364548 Citalopram 40mgs (3yrs), Quetiapine 50-100mgs (2.5 yrs), Reboxetine 12mgs (18months), Lamotrigine 150mgs (6months) and Lithium 400 at night (one week...so unlikely to be relevant). Anyone got any useful thoughts??
Avatar f tn Has any one reduced and successfully stopped taking quetiapine? were there any horrible withdrawal symptoms or return of symptoms? I am feeling scared I must say.
