Avatar n tn Hi, I'm a 35 year old woman and I've been suffering from vertigo and dizziness for about 8 months now with tinnitus and hearing loss in my left ear. (I've had these symptoms on and off for about 10 years). Every doctor I've seen has mentioned Menieres but now my ENT consultant has said it's low down on the list and has now referred me to a neurologist and for an MRI. I'm terrified that there is something seriously wrong with me.
655875 tn?1295695107 Maxalt is a a 5-HT1 agonist triptan drug containing rizatriptan benzoate. It is recommended that doses should be separated by at least 2 hours and no more than 30 mg should be taken in any 24-hour period. However, the safety of treating, more than four headaches in a 30-day period has not been established. Analgesics and other over-the-counter pain relievers are often associated with rebound headaches.
Avatar f tn sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate. Yesterday my skin was freaking out again and I hadn't changed any of the products I had been using. But, much of the irritation was around my mouth which brought me to look at foods I had recently been eating. I made the connection that perhaps the preservatives of the smoothie I reacted to were in the ham or cheese or fig newtons I had just recently added to my diet. Fig newtons contained both sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate.
Avatar m tn A friend of mine noticed a tiny lump at the root of his penis and is painful during erection. I have surfed through the internet; the best treatment is to take Potassium Para-Amino Benzoate. Some recommend Vitamin E and little other. option. Where can I buy Potassium Para-Amino Benzoate in Malaysia. What is the best treatment beside surgery?
Avatar m tn I cannot seem to keep the wafers, or barriers as some call them, attached. The stool just pushes up and out and makes the wafer come off. It does not drop in the bag like it is supposed to. I am taking 400 mg of stool softner and miralax per day to try and soften things up as the doctor told me this should help the situation. I have a recessed stoma, it does not poke out. I have used concave and regular wafers, but not used the belt as I do not like it.
Avatar m tn My dermatologist prescribed me to rub in benzyl benzoate 25% for five days. I have been using the benzyl benzoate, but at the very beginning I have noticed that it is kind of "weird", it is really liquid like water, and white-ish. And when every time I have used it, I didnt feel any reaction such as tingling, as the doctor and pharmacist suggested I would.
Avatar f tn Personal experience and objective data tell me that Roche tablets are best, and that there are no inconsistencies between the brand and generic wafers. The wafers have little room for error, as they are very rapidly absorbed. Binders and fillers in tablets are all subject to variation (depending on the manufacturer), which likely affects absorption, and subsequently, onset of action, AUC Max, BA and BE. One day, I intend to write a post with my objective findings on this subject.
Avatar f tn My doctor prescribed me these vitamin d3 wafers that I'm suppose to take weekly since my vitamin d is a little on the low side and he says vit d deficiency can cause several birth defects. So I've been taking Replesta vit d3 for 3 weeks now its one chewable tablet per week & just now I just read on the indications and use sheet "NOT TO BE USED BY PREGNANT WOMEN". Says it can cause heart defects in fetuses amongst other things. I dont know how to feel right now.
Avatar m tn I went to a neurologist and they prescribed me Nortriptyline, Methylprednisolone, and Rizatriptan. Since I have taken these medications I have gained a little relief however, it all just came back after a week. When I was on rizatriptan it constricted the vessels on the temporal regions of my head and I did not feel them throbbing too much, however, there were still headaches.
Avatar f tn They're pretty good because they work a lot faster than the pills, and they don't taste bad to me. They just dissolve in your mouth and go to work! I take them when I can't control my anxiety any other way, but I must say that for some reason the pill form seems stronger even with the same dosage. This could be because of what they mix it with. If you don't like waiting an hour on the pills, then the wafers are a good choice. They are also a bit more expensive (just a bit).
Avatar m tn I HAVE BEEN ON METHODONE PINK LIQUID AT A CLINIC, THIS WEEKEND THEY SWITCHED ME TO THE WAFERS I TAKE 100. 2 AND 1/2 WAFERS. I WAS FINE AT THAT DOES BUT NOW WHEN I TOOK THW WAFERS SAT AND TODAY I AM HAVEING WITHDRAWS WHY? ITS SUPPOSE TO BE THE SAME RIGHT ?
Avatar f tn I am 12 weeks and have terrible morning sickness and nausea. the wafers are all that works. i am having trouble getting a script larger than four wafer or tablets. its really started to drive me mental. i am having to go to the doctor every four days just so i am able to function for work. any suggestions on how to get around this problem??
7510956 tn?1411671417 s Ginger Trips (or the wafers) for my nausea and/or stomach ache. Dizzyness, they are good for all those things, great you discovered them. I'm not finished with my tx.
Avatar n tn I've heard of methodone being referred to as "pink wafers". I'm 27 days off of methodone.I personally refer to it as "pure evil".Stay away from metodone.Just my opinion.
Avatar n tn Wafers are expensive and cannot be cut. You can cut a .5 mg tab into fourths easily. Each fourth will equal .125 mg. I have taken a long slow taper and have had no withdrawal yet. Hope it continues. Hope you can be successful also. good luck. Ryan is definately the guy to listen to. If you can afford the wafers or have coverage I would take his advice.
Avatar n tn The wafers are equal to 1/2 of the .05 mg tab. The wafers instruct you not to break or cut them, but my doctor said it would work and it did. I used a pill cutter. It wasn't always a uniform cut but it worked out in the daily total. I started by taking two wafers=.05 mg per dose. I took away a quarter wafer from my daily total(started w/ am dose). I stayed at that amount for two weeks and then took away another quarter wafer and so on. Your doctor has to prescribe the wafers.
Avatar n tn hi welcome well there are several names for the methadone demon but its all the same stuff ive seen the metadose pills and was on methadone for a long time 6 1/2 yrs If your considering it..my advise is RUN THE OTHER WAY....
Avatar m tn Hi, Maxalt is brand name for Rizatriptan. It belongs to the category of medication known as Triptans. Triptans are very effective in treatment of acute migraine attacks because they are known to reduce the swelling of blood vessels. Dilatation of blood vessels in the brain is known to cause migraines. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rizatriptan It is nice to know that you are finding this site useful. God bless!
Avatar m tn Our 3 year old autistic boy will not eat anything AT ALL. Except vanilla wafers. He does drink a lot of apple juice and some fruit punch. He also drinks about 2 baby bottles of formula daily (keeping him on this for his vitamins and nutriments). We tried force feeding but any feeding is a physical battle of flying arms, hands, clenched teeth, twisting head, etc. Not wanted to tramatize him anymore we have given up and are letting him eat his cookies.
7945295 tn?1397658820 Good question, I just educated myself on aspartame, a sugar sweetner that is sweeter than regular sugar, but lower in calories. I bought sugar free vanilla wafers, only to find out they aren't really sugar free because it contained that ingredient.
Avatar f tn By way of background I have chronic daily headaches as well as migraines with aura, and have had those since I was 14 (I’m 32 now). I take rizatriptan for the migraines and Tylenol and ibuprofen for the daily headache.
Avatar f tn I tried to close my eyes and then open them but it continued for about 15 mins, once it slowed down i took one of my migraine pills (maxalt wafers) and feel back to sleep, once I woke a couple of hours later apart from feeling exhausted my vision had improved and my migraine was back to a dull throb. Has anyone had any simular experiences or do you think it could be caused by the pill. Please help as it was very scary.
Avatar m tn Metafiber wafers, Benefiber, and Psyllum husks capsules as well as Fiber 1 cereal. I have got to the point where I produce good sized stools on a regular basis, however my bowel movements still feel incomplete. I feel as if there is still hard, dry stool matter behind the main stool that is not coming out. As a result, I never feel fully empty. Does anyone have any advice of something further I can try?
