Avatar f tn These dosing interval recommendations are based on modeling of single-dose pharmacokinetic data in non-HIV and non-HBV infected subjects with varying degrees of renal impairment, including end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis.
Avatar f tn New Onset or Worsening Renal Impairment Tenofovir is principally eliminated by the kidney. Renal impairment, including cases of acute renal failure and Fanconi syndrome (renal tubular injury with severe hypophosphatemia), has been reported with the use of VIREAD [See ADVERSE REACTIONS]. It is recommended that creatinine clearance be calculated in all patients prior to initiating therapy and as clinically appropriate during therapy with VIREAD.
Avatar f tn My cardiologist put me on ramipril a few wks back and after 10 days ran blood tests whic came back normal. this morning I woke up with diarriah and some serious kidney pain on the right side.It doesn't hurt when I urinate or have a bowel movement although certain body movements cause it to occur. My question is can this be caused by ramipril along with my lasix and potassium with a delayed reaction or buildup?

Avatar m tn I dont really understand the ultrasound results but it said at the bottom of the report that findings were consistent with advanced chroinc renal impairment. If anyone has heard of results like this I would really like some help.
Avatar m tn It is likely the patient had acute colchicine toxicity brought on by the addition of erythromycin and superimposed on chronic colchicine intoxication secondary to renal and hepatic impairment. The patient improved with supportive therapy and intensive hemodialysis and was discharged on day 70 of hospitalization. Another report describes two fatal cases of agranulocytosis due to presumed interaction between colchicine and clarithromycin, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor.
Avatar m tn these tablets are not for bp any way there for water balance, she must take ace inhibtors in kidney disease, ramipril is a good one, renal diet is essential, low salt low spice low potassium low fat, LOW PROTEIN, less oil, currys must be watery not spicy, i would limit protein to 40 grm a day or less, go and see a nephrologist, search the net for a good one,
Avatar m tn Is this renal impairment reversible once I finish treatment? Any help would be most appreciated.
1128488 tn?1265053382 AMPYRA is contraindicated in patients with moderate to severe renal impairment (CrCl≤50 mL/min); the risk of seizures in patients with mild renal impairment (CrCl 51–80 mL/min) is unknown, but AMPYRA plasma levels in these patients may approach those seen at a dose of 15 mg twice daily, a dose that may be associated with an increased risk of seizures; estimated CrCl should be known before initiating treatment with AMPYRA."

Avatar m tn 96 and now at 1.43. He has no renal impairment and his kidney ultrasound and detailed urine report is perfectly normal. He is cirrhotic (Hep-c) at stage 2 according to doc (hep-c) which stopped the sovaldi + ribavirin treatment to save his kidneys. However during the period he was also on diuretics (furosemide) occasionally. His nephrologist says that it is safe to continue sovaldi treatment but the other doc gave a red flag (I have yet to have a dicussion with the nephrologist).
Avatar m tn Stopped taking plavix after one year, now taking 81 aspirin every other day. Stopped taking beta blocker at one year. Still taking 2.5 Ramipril twice a day. My BP can run 95/65 & Heart rate 60 when resting. I have had two Nucular stress test and performed outstanding. Not currantly seeing any cardiologist as all previous only want to do is test and interventions and or Pacemakers. I exercise three times a week in health club where I do HIT training and get my heart rate up to 175.
Avatar f tn There was some mild left ventricular hyperkinesias and an ejection fraction of 41%. I have been on ramipril since. My wife wont stop crying because she says that means I dont have long to live. I am so terrified. Does anyone know what the diagnosis means . I am due another MRI scan in sept 2011..
Avatar n tn Seven patients, of whom five were hepatitis C positive, developed renal function impairment long after transplantation, as well as de novo nephrotic syndrome (n = 5), severe hypertension (n = 5), nephritic syndrome (n = 1), and increased serum creatinine (n = 1). This type III cryoglobulinemia was associated with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and with thrombi within the glomeruli in one case.
Avatar f tn 5mg everyday, for to treat the diabetic nephropathy, i can get ramipril in my town but its 5mg ramipril capsule in the chemists, and his medications are over, so should i let him take the 5mg ramipril? my big concern is would the dose cause hypoglycaemia or any other effects as the dosage will be double the dose hid doctor prescribed? please help me on that, i will be grateful...thank you.
Avatar f tn I am confused by the drug RAMIPRIL. The leaflet in box and details in British Formulary list WEIGHT LOSS as a side effect (I have lost 6 kilos). On the Internet there are many letters regarding weight gain but nothing about weeight loss. Why is this?
Avatar m tn Persistent increased level of serum creatinine or decreased level of urine creatinine usually reflects impairment of renal functions. Here are some natural ways for lowering high creatinine. http://www.kidney-cares.org/creatinine/100.html http://www.kidneyfailureweb.com/creatinine/233.
1471082 tn?1286757000 Swelling of legs could be due to osteoarthritis, hypertension, renal impairment. So please consult your treating neurologist to have a look and refer you or suggest you to consult an orthopaedician if required. If he is already not taking, he may require treatment for agitation or aggressive behavior. Hearing aids, glasses or cataract surgery if appropriate. Behavior therapy might help by ignoring inappropriate and rewarding good behavior. Reality orientation may help reduce disorientation.
Avatar f tn While elevated ammonia levels are seen in cirrhotic patients there can be encephalopathy with normal ammonia levels and there can also be no mental impairment in some patients with elevated ammonia levels. Basically, ammonia levels are of limited use for diagnosing cirrhosis or hepatic impairment. I would also think some other results of your blood work would have been out of range if you are cirrhotic or are suffering significant liver impairment.
Avatar m tn An elevated BUN [blood urea nitrogen] is concern for liver and/or renal impairment, not diabetes. Although I have empathy for your father, you are seeking help in the wrong place. Ask your father's doctor to refer you to a nutritionist or some who specializes in that degree in your country.
Avatar f tn I was put on Ramipril 5mg as my BP was high. Wondering how long it takes to work. My pulse is low a 59 but my BP is still high. Is this normal? Im worried if they put the dose up my pulse will go even lower.
544430 tn?1283712658 I am not familiar with Ramipril, so, unfortunately, can't speak to that. I've read posts here where people take a specific type of levothyroxine and have side effects from the dyes in the pill, so that's a possibility. However, I think further work up is probably warranted.
Avatar n tn Hi, Fluid retention can be due to various reasons like heart failure, low serum protein, renal failure, liver failure etc. Your father needs to get evaluated for the above mentioned causes to find out the cause for fluid build up in your father. Depending upon the cause treatment varies. Dobutamine is a inotrope, as a support in the short-term treatment of cardiac decompensation due to depressed contractility resulting either from organic heart disease or from cardiac surgical procedures.
1020296 tn?1251475359 doctor prescribed some medicines which includes baclofen, ramipril, clopidogrel,amolodipine , atenolol, atorvastatin and escitolopram. after taking medicines her pulse rate has gone to 45-50 range and blood pressure is still 160/120. I'd like to ask why pulse rate is going low..is it due to side effect of medicines..
Avatar n tn If these levels are unavailable (because the patient has been well and has had no blood tests) it is occasionally necessary to treat a patient briefly as having ARF until it has been established that the renal impairment is irreversible.
Avatar m tn The amount of mannitol in Copaxone is small and absorption Gabapentin (Neurontin) should be used carefully in patients with renal impairment due to possible accumulation and toxicity. It has been linked with liver toxicity. Provigil is metabolized by the liver and excreted in the urine. Have they looked for an independent cause? Some simple blood and urine tests can provide a lot of information about kidney function and possible causes.
