Avatar m tn Of the total number of subjects [N=3884] in Phase II and III clinical studies of Sitagliptin, 725 patients were 65 years and over, while 61 patients were 75 years and older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between subjects 65 years and over and younger subjects. While this and other clinical experience have not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients, greater sensitivity of some older individuals cannot be ruled out.

Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with secondary autoimmune adrenal insufficiency in December. I feel lousy most of the time, have chronic abdominal pain and abnormal stools, and feel best flat on my back...which doesn't work well for someone who works 12 hour shifts in a busy ER while selling one house, building another, and has 2 teens and a disabled husband, lol. Here's my question. If a person has say diabetes, their meds are based on their blood sugars.

Avatar m tn ve been found to have extremely low cortisol and have been following the dosing chart on *************************. Basically every 3 or 4 days you increase by 2.5mg if you haven't seen it. Initially I was feeling slightly better on one dose of 2.5mg each morning then a day or two after being on two doses of 2.5mg I started to feel very spaced out, dizzy, exhausted and confused. I read somewhere that ideally you should raise your dose every 2 weeks or so. Would you agree with this?
Avatar f tn Usual questions concerning dosing down. I was at 50mg - down to 28 this week. Been going down 5 mg a week. From what I read that is fast but our clinic is over $400 a month and I can't afford it any longer. So far I've been fine, no problems at all. Some anxiety here and there, but that's normal for me. I am just looking for some withdraw stories for people who dosed down to 1mg from a clinic.
259041 tn?1206482847 Dr. Lupo, a question about dosing of Tapazole. I've been on meds for a little over a year. Was doing well for 8 months, then I stopped taking it for a couple of weeks( to see if it was causing muscle pain,was only on 2.5 mgs) Doc increased it to 5 mgs. for 3 months. Went into hypo range, he didn't reduce it... my labs were as follows: tsh-4.21(0.35-5.5) free t-4 -0.84 (0.8-1.9) total t-3- 0.9 (1.10-2.00) low, he said we'd reduce it next time. then 3 months later my tsh was 6.
29837 tn?1414534648 s assistant said and had it clarified today. The double dosing will consist of double Pegasys and the standard, torturous Ribavirin. I would like to know if anyone has undergone this double dosing regiment. If so, how was it? Did you eat and sleep normally? Were you prone to lashing out at your friends? Did you have a hard time breathing? Were you extremely depressed? Was the itching unbelievable? Did most of your hair fall out? Did you finally respond to the double-dosing?
Avatar f tn Can someone tell me the dosing for HC cream if using the cream instead of tablets? I remember the gram weight I think but not how often to use. Is it once a day or several times like the tablets?
9648 tn?1290091207 Weight-adapted ribavirin dosing in combination with peg-IFN alfa-2a to avoid giving low doses of ribavirin should be evaluated. This will minimize relapse, especially in HCV GT 1 patients.
