Common Questions and Answers about Actonel monthly dose
actonel
I take once monthly Actonel. While I was pushing the pill through the foil blister, it broke. I did not take that pill for fear that it could cause stomach problems. My question is would it have been safe to take? Also, if I contact Proctor & Gamble, do you think they might replace the pill. If it was a daily pill, I wouldn't worry about, but I just lost a whole month of medicine due to a faulty package design.

None of the medications really work except the prednisone, albuterol and singular. I have stopped taking everything else.
I am also going to stop taking Nexium because I have been taking it since last May and I don't think it is good to keep taking it.
I started out with half dose and have worked up to a full dose. The full dose 2 days in a row was disabling. My doctor suggested every other day. So I let the previous trial work its way out of my system for 5 days and tried another full dose. This is three days after the dose and I am weaker each day. I move in slow motion. My doctor is puzzled. Anyone had a similar experience?

The she went back to the hospital for an morning drop off, a dose of heartworm preventative like heartguard (more then the regular monthly dose) or interceptor ( 1dose) and she was observed and then released that p.m. After 2 weeks you test for microfilaria which is the baby worms if positive it doesn't always mean their are still adults reproducing so a second dose of preventative should be given and then retest in 2 more weeks.
The way I understand it, lithium requires blood testing because the therapeutic dose is close to the toxic dose. Is it monthly testing? Maybe at first while the optimum dose is being found. I think some blood tests may be needed with Depakote because it's hard on the liver. It's been a long time since I've taken it. If I remember right, my doctor tested my liver enzymes before putting me on it to make sure I was in good order before starting it.
liver enzymes shoot up, her doctor increases dosage, this is followed by decrease in enzyme levels in next monthly blood test, then doctor slowly decreases dosage, this is always followed by increase in liver enzyme level, and so on. This has been going on for an year now
I am thinking if increased dose reduces enzyme level, then why decrease the dosage at all. Is it only fear of side-effect?
New Results from Phase II ARB-1467 Multi-Dosing Study In September 2016, Arbutus reported single dose ARB-1467 results for Cohorts 1 (0.2mg/kg) and 2 (0.4 mg/kg) and multiple dose results from Cohort 1 (Cohorts 1 and 2 enrolled HBeAg- patients). Today Arbutus is reporting multiple dose results from Cohort 2, which show a significant reduction in HBsAg. In both Cohort 1 and Cohort 2, an additive, step-wise reduction in HBsAg was observed with each dose.

406 days clean from a debilitating oxy contin addiction. Stated with my husband. We both were taking anywhere between 12-18 oxy 80's a day. I lost my husband to an over dose and continued my addiction. I spent every last dollar I had and almost ruined my life completely. I am proud to say I am clean and with the help of the people here and sheer will, I will remain clean. Been here at MH going on two years and have met so many wonderdul people. This site is a god send....
I was diagnosed with mild hypothyroidism and tested positive for anti-thyroid antibodies in December after my 2nd miscarriage. My doctor wanted my TSH below 2 (it was 5) and it took 2 dosage increases to get it down.
I suspected my mother had the same problem (she has had symptoms for years) and she ended up in the emergency room in February with severe swelling and rash.
I had to change up my timing during triple therapy. They had me taking pills at 3 in the morning. I just went back by half hour increments until I got to where I wanted to be.
Overkill? Possibly....but it made me feel better to do it that way.
Your change isn't that drastic.....just do it in one day. You've been on the meds for 6 months...so you are past the crucial 12 week point. But you won't be able to avoid doing the 2 oclock dose at work.
To increase the dose does bring on more unpleasant side effects. The ones that are monitored and increased in dose monthly are the ones that Clomid at the lower doses is not working for them. The only way to ensure it is working is to be monitored by your doctor.
Many OB doctors unfortunately do not monitor u on Clomid. I would at least insist on a cd21 progesterone test that will also let u know if you in fact ovulated.
