Anyone here know anything about zetia and its affect on the thyroid and or levo absorption? I have read it may affect absorption and the rx monograph says talk tp your doctor if you have thyroid disorders. He knows I am on synthroid, but I am curious how this drug affects it.

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.

"Other factors contributing to the neutrophilia induced by filgrastim include a substantial (e.g., ninefold) increase in neutrophil production rate, with several extra amplification divisions during neutrophil development, and a shortening (e.g., from the usual 4 or 5 days to 1 day) of the time required for neutrophil precursors to mature and appear in circulation." http://www.medscape.com/druginfo/monograph?

This is why they always ask you when you pick up a Rx at the Pharmacy if you have any questions, and why they provide you with an education monograph for each and every medication that is prescribed to you. You really ARE supposed to read those things! (LOL...not many do, I know) I know that isn't what you want to hear, but really...everyone must be responsible for their own health and safety...and must work WITH the docs in forming decisions on what meds to take, what they are for, etc.

When the Institute of Medicine brought forth its monograph on the development of trustworthy practice guidelines, it pointed to the IDSA Lyme Disease guidelines as an example of a guideline development process ‘gone awry’.

We also have younger dogs who play with the Akita and keep her active and less likely to get stiffness from arthritis. Also, I asked for a product monograph about the new meds just to be familiar with it. Like I said, I just love this dog and want to do the right things for her. She seems to be happy, eats and drinks well, plays, etc. Guess I just don't want to imagine being without her.

//www.clevelandclinicmeded.com/online/monograph/hepc/cirrhosis.htm Here is a link to a 39 minute video presentation given by one of my doctors, Norah Terrault, to other doctors at UCSF on March 6, 2008. (Dr. Terrault directs the Hep C treatment programs at University of California San Francisco). This presentation gives the lastest info on HCV and cirrhosis. “Management of Hepatitis C in the Pre-Transplant Patient with cirrhosis (compensated and decompensated)” http://www.uctv.

Looked at the drug interactions monograph, thought it was a reaction to the generic Zyrtec and called my doc. He told me to stop taking the zyrtec and ordered liver function tests. Well, tests came back with high enzymes and bilirubin and he told me to stop taking ALL medications. Ordered an ultrasound which he said was negative, and ordered the blood work again. He seems to think it's liver damage due to drug toxicity.

I have been doing lots of reading on the internet, and also, of the monograph provided with the medicine. I am reading about side effects such as dizziness, shortness of breath, all kinds of awful things. I have dizziness due to vertigo (believed by my Dr. to be due to fluid in ears / virus), and wonder how I'll be able to tell whether any diziness is a side effect or the vertigo. It's all very new and confusing to me.

I know many folks who have started @ 300mgs/day - especially those using it as stand-alone therapy. It's one of the better drugs out there, very little sexual side effects and food cravings. You could always call your dr. and ask if this is the correct dose, or you could ask your pharmacist to confirm with the dr., you might get a faster answer if s/he did that. I wouldn't always take the monograph as the gospel for the drug, but it's good to ask and question dosing.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_sclerosing_cholangitis Most patients with PSC (80%) also have ulcerative colitis. I have to question the appropriateness of a liver biopsy if PSC is the suspected disease. From what I know and according to the sources I have a biopsy isn't usually determinative of PSC. Imaging studies are usually done first.

Ultimately, the onus is always on the patient to educate themselves. The pharmacy is required to provide an educational monograph with each and every Rx filled, and I think most people just throw them away (I'm guilty myself of this at times, lol). Also, in this age of computers and the internet, it's SO easy to find information from a reputable source about medications. And if ever you're unsure of something, or have questions, speak up and talk to your doctor.
