8101930 tn?1420001456 My son is 2 months and just received his first shots yesterday including the rotavirus vaccine. I noticed that after his shots and today he has been pooping yellow colored like normal but it is very chunky. He is exclusively breast fed and always has a little bit of a seedy stool but this is very chunky. I'm Just curious if anyone knows if this is normal or not. Could it be from the rotavirus vaccine because they do ingest it. Thanks.

But ever since she has been in daycare she always get sick, now she has given her cold to me and LaDell, we both started taking vitamin c to hopefully prevent us from getting sick.
Avatar f tn I will know then if that is EOT or I go for 6 more weeks. The Merck trial presented wonderful results at the ASSLD conference. 97 out of 98 reached SVR. That was a 12 week study but did not include hard to treat such as null responders, cirrhotics and HIV. These new drugs are changing the way Hep C is treated---rapidly. The future looks bright for all of us. Still have a way to go, but I am optimistic about my trial and others.
Avatar m tn Thu Apr 10, 2014 1:17am EDT (Reuters) - A two-drug combination being tested by Merck & Co to treat hepatitis C cured 98 percent of previously untreated patients without cirrhosis in a midstage clinical trial, providing the latest evidence that the U.S. drugmaker will be highly competitive in the fast evolving field. Results of the study called C-Worthy were presented on Thursday at the annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) in London.

572651 tn?1530999357 I was researching something and came across the Merck Manual online again.... this comprehensive medical manual for professionals have explanations for just about everything you can think of. The best part is the online version is free to access - the section on neurological patients begins here - take the spaces out of the address: www. merck. c o m/mmpe/sec16/ch206/ch206a.html Don't stay up too late reading!
29837 tn?1414534648 Just got off the phone with Merck. There is a program that will allow you to get free medicine. The yearly income dollar cap amount for individuals is $43,320. There are other caps for family income amounts. You may qualify. Hopefully this will help some of you that are strapped for cash. The number I have is 800-727-5400. this is the Merck Patient Services...
Avatar f tn Will Merck drug and interferon and ribo be ok without fat?
1961140 tn?1450738712 Hello All, I completed a 12 week clinical trial of two meds in one pill from Merck. Grazoprevir is an improved pan genotypic protease inhibitor, and Elbasvir is a NS5A inhibitor. These Merck drugs should hit the market this Summer, I would think. The director of the clinical trial wrote me, and said the relapse rate of those in the clinical trials who achieved a SVR is 1%. It is worth noting that figure may change, as these meds are still so new.
Avatar m tn I was paying $135 or so for Nasonex, which I thought was ridiculously expensive at the time. When Flonase became an OTC product, I thought Nasonex would become cheaper. That's what competition is supposed to do. But noooooo... I went to CVS today and the price was $218 for Nasonex. That is a total ripoff... Why did the price go up? So what's the difference between Merck, the manufacturer, and a robber with a gun on the street? Answer: The gun. Merck robs you without using a gun.
Avatar f tn At 12 months, she began to fall of her growth curve. Shortly after her first birthday, she got rotavirus and became severely dehydrated. After 4 trips to the ER (they thought I only wanted a cure for the stomach flu), she was admitted for 5 days and closely monitored. She was 17.5 lbs at her 1 year check up, she lost 1 1/2 lbs from rotavirus at admittance and upon discharge she weighed 18 lbs. A pediatrician who is a specialist thought she had celiac disease but testing came back negative.
Avatar n tn ve been through these with my 2 1/2 year old and some of them can take a very long time to clear. One that pops into mind is rotavirus. Fevers do not necessarily always accompany a virus. He should see a Dr. Also, make sure he is staying well hydrated. Food is less important then fluids. Juices, pedialight, even milk. Dehydration is always the biggest concern. Is he energetic or listless? That too can tell you alot. If he is listless and weak, then he should be seen right away.
Avatar m tn 7 million to be paid by Merck. Before anyone feels bad for Merck, he or she should also know that some researchers estimate that Merck “earned” about $3 billion (with a “b”) in 2007 from Fosamax. There are still many unsettled suits. While alendronate sodium does have some appropriate indications, there are serious side effects which can occur. Most of the lawsuits focus on one of two harms – femur fractures or osteonecrosis of the jaw.
Avatar f tn The organization soon required that Merck updated the safety labeling to include this important risk information. Several other European health authorities also required Merck to make these safety label updates, including the United Kingdom’s Medical and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency. However, Merck did not make the same safety label updates in the United States until the summer of 2011.
Avatar f tn s one poke on the foot then they usually do a hepatitis B shot then roughly ever 2 months the baby gets Dtap,Hib ,Polio,Pneumococcal, Rotavirus (hope i spelled them all right)but they can mix some together usually 2 pokes with the needle the babies get over it so fast
Avatar f tn So if you have a type that is viral such as one caused by norovirus or rotavirus you could have a contagious type or a bacterial one like Clostridium difficile, Salmonella or Shigella pr Ecoli that has a toxin (not all strains have it). So you need to find out which one by having the doctor do some lab tests or telling you which one you have. The main thing is washing your hands well after using the toilet.
1961140 tn?1450738712 Still TND, as it has been since my third week on the Merck 5172-068 clinical trial. The consumer med will most likely be the two combined in one pill as mine was, 100 mg. of Grazoprevir, and 50 mg. of Elbasvir. Last tablet was 10-31-14, so I guess I can finally let myself believe it is a wrap. Merck wanted to pronounce me SVR @ 12 weeks post tx, but I wanted to wait. It is still a bit difficult to come to grips with the fact those little !@#$%^&* are finally gone.
