Avatar n tn However, it is common practice to increase medication dose to help control blood sugar (the maximum dose of metformin is about 2500 mg/day, in split doses). Some people do take their medication before eating. Please discuss changes in medication dosing with your md. You may also find that restricting carbs (eat more fat, non-starchy vegetables instead to replace the calories) may help in reducing your blood sugar.
Avatar f tn If you stop use of the Tylenol PM, it may take up to 2-4 weeks for you to adjust to falling asleep without the medication, but there should be no other problems. The current recommended maximum daily dosage of acetaminophen, commonly known as Tylenol, is 4000mg (4 grams) in a 24 hour period and one tablet of Tylenol PM contains 500mg of Acetaminophen and 25mg of Diphenhydramine. Therefore, if you take 2 tablets (1000mg or 1 gram) each night you are not exceeding the maximum daily dosage.
Avatar f tn In general, the initial dosage is a 15 mg capsule per day, and your doctor can increase the dosage based on your tolerance to the drug and your weight loss , but the maximum dosage is 30 mg per day.
Avatar f tn Tylenol is unveiling new maximum dosage instructions for paracetamol or acetaminophen in the US. The new instructions state a maximum total daily of 3,000 mg versus the old maximum of 4,000 mg. Additionally, it states to take the over the counter dosage every 6 hours instead of every 4 to 6 hours. These new instructions seem to be specific to their over the counter products not prescription medications.
780647 tn?1304020942 I also see that a physician prescribed Arthrotec for you. Arthrotec is used to treat osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in people at high risk for developing stomach or intestinal ulcers. Both conditions can be extremely painful which explains the symptoms you are experiencing. Have you began the medication yet? It may take some time before you see the benefits. Some times NSAID's need to "build up" in your system before they are truly effective.
Avatar f tn I am going to see a specialist. My family doctor put me on arthrotec 75 mg. which does help with the pain. I can now move my arms without horrible pain. I am supposed to take it twice a day but it is unbelievable the cost of this stuff. Is that something they use for Fibro ? Any of this type medication has bad side effects.
Avatar f tn Do you mean, what is the maximum effective dosage or what is the maximum dose at which toxic levels become a danger?
1305522 tn?1273170802 Hi Scotty: I'm sorry to hear of your pain. As far as other meds, I use a drug called Arthrotec. Info for this drug : http://www.drugs.com/pdr/arthrotec.html. I have no idea if this will help you. I use it for neck and hand pain. Works very well for me. If helps my sister with the same issues. It's basically an NSAID for those of us with ulcers. I have no way of knowing if it would help you. But it doesn't affect you in the same way that Vicodin does.
Avatar m tn Is it 50mg? I am about to switch and wanted to make sure. I also know that 20mg is usually the maximum allowed for Lexapro, is 50mg the maximum for Pristiq? Thank you for the help!
Avatar n tn I am having trouble finding out what is a safe maximum dosage of Diamox for psuedotumor cerebri. When I had asked my daughters neurologist this question, she said there is no maximum dosage which I found hard to believe that there wouldn't be a max dose on any medication. My daughter is 15 yrs old and had been prescribed a total of 2500 mg per day divided into 3 doses. Does anyone know the max dose for diamox? Thanks!
526311 tn?1229286330 t know how much I can help but my hubby takes Lyrica 600mg a day which is the maximum dosage. He is also on oxycontin, both for severe back pain. The oxycontin he craves and is addicted to (currently tapering down from) but the Lyrica he does not crave at all and sometimes doesn't take any at all during the day.
Avatar f tn This drug helps stimulate the egg follicles resulting in improved egg production and ovulation. If there is no ovulation on initial dosage the dosage may be increased to a maximum of 200mg per day. It is usually prescribed for a maximum of six cycles. While on clomiphene you may need frequent trips to the doctor to monitor the progress of ovulation. Do contact your doctor for more queries. Keep me posted. Best wishes and regards!
Avatar n tn If each acetaminophen tablet is an extra strength tablet of 500 mgs and my math is correct that means you are taking eight tablets to reach four grams and SIXTEEN tablets to reach eight grams or 8,000 milligrams and Eighteen tablets to reach nine grams? Recommended maximum dosage is 4,000mgs in a 24 hour period and they were recently discussing the possibility of lowering that to 2,000 mgs per day. All at once? Why? It cannot be an effective pain reducer at that level.
Avatar n tn Cough is not a side effect of this medication but you are way over the maximum dosage and need to address "why". Good luck.
Avatar n tn Usually when Psychiatrist refer to "maximum dose" they are refering to the maximum effective dose at which any more of the drug is simply never going to produce further theriputic results. I know it sound as if it means "max dose" as in "that's the most you can take before the danger level" but that's not usually the case. For example if the maximum effective dose of Effexor is shown to be 350Mgs a day.
Avatar f tn Yes take it every day....
