While living in the US I was using Benazepril 40 mg, but now I'm living in Ecuador and that med is not available here not as lotensin on benazepril.
What can I sustitute it with?
I was on benazapril for hbp for quite a while, developed a slight dry scratchy cough my doctor described as benazepril cough. He changed me to valsartan last week and thats where the real fun began :-( 3 days on valsartan and I was having horrible side effects of dizziness, rapid heart rate, general feeling of crappiness, even slight shortness of breath with the slightest exertion None of which I experienced with the benazepril.
It really depends on why your vet put her on Benazepril? Is it for diagnosed high blood pressure - or is it to help the kidneys function better through increased blood flow?
Benazepril is a good drug for either, but if it is merely to help the kidneys (in other words, if your dog does not already have high blood pressure), then extreme caution is needed.
tony thanks for your response the benazepril is to treat the hypertension and to reduce protein loss through the kidneys the amlodipine also for hypertension and control her plood pressure which was elevated the plavix is to reduce the chance of blood clots i also give her fish oil and give her chopped green cabbage with meals , i have started to wake up and give her a meal at 2;00 am and seems to have stopped the vomiting of bile . when karly was diagnosed in oct of 2015 she weighed 9.
I am 75. I take 75 mg of atenolol and 40 mg of benazepril hcl every day. I had an echo stress test (speed increases every two minutes) and at 6 minutes my blood pressure starting falling so the test was stopped and the doctor said sometimes with blood pressure medicine that happens. He said my heart was fine. I had a by-pass 12 years ago. So do I have to worry?
I took lantus throughout treatment. However, my doctor pulled me off metformin because it sometimes messes with ALT levels, making it difficult to get an accurate picture of how liver enzymes respond to tx. I ate so little during tx, and a lot of it was ice cream. Nevertheless, for some reason - despite all the sugar in ice cream - my A1c was better during tx than it ever was before or after.
58 year old female with long-standing hypertension (30 mg Benazepril daily). Wt, chol, lipids, glucose, etc. all good.

My readings have been like 156/85 and as high as 167/90. I have been on Benazepril since May. I have felt better ever since taking the medicine no doubt. Not one single headache and I generally feel better. My blood pressure had went down a little on my last vist. It was about 148/84. The doctor still saw the need to put me on another medication, so now im taking Benazepril and Amlodipine. And at times checking my BP myself it has been down to like 127/80.
Im only 24 and thats what worries me.
how much protein do you show in your urine? protein in urine could be a sign of progressive kidney failure. i am going to be taking a 24 hr urine in October 2009, hopefully the news is good. as far as the benazepril 10mg i haven't had any side effects...one of the most common side effects with blood pressure pills is a cough that could appear at anytime. also it is a good idea to keep your blood pressure below 130/80. sorry i took so long to answer.

I have 3 cats a 3 year old and 2 11 week kittens. Not all cats carry toxoplasmosis. they say cats that eat raw meat or mice and other small rodents contract it. You can have your cats tested at vet to see if they are carriers. I rescued my oldest cat back in january i was in my first trimester, BD said he would clean her box, he never does. I got scoopable litter i scoop it out into a bag throw it away and wash hands really good. I got the kittens when they were 8 weeks old.
I dont think so but in my situation i was never allergic to cats and now that im pregnant its horrible my whole body starts to break outs so i had to get rid of them
Yeah my sister has two cats, she has twins and it's fine. Just make sure when baby is napping to close the door so the cat won't go in there. Cats like to sleep by their heads and it can suffocate them.
I have two cats, they were both inside. Pregnant women aren't suppose to change litter boxes and sometimes cats can be dangerous once the baby is born because they can tend to be really cuddly and cause suffocation or take the babies breath away. I gradually got my cats use to outside and they usually stay in our garage now, atleast until the baby's born and older.
I have three cats and not sure if it's safe for the baby. I'm only 12 weeks but people kept telling me that cats will suffocate the baby once it's born. I really don't want to give them up. They're not just animals,they're my babies too.Suggestions?
Well, I'm just venting.. As the days tick down for my baby girls arrival, I can't help but hate my cats more and more! They're disgusting to me..and they are scratching up the walls and NOW peeing on the floor.. my dad yelled and yelled at me to get rid of them a long time ago, but now I'm strongly considering it.. Is the humane society 100% humane? They wouldn't put them down would they?
Yeah, I have two cats and I have heard about how they cuddle the baby for the milk which can lead to accidental smothering. As long as you watch them and don't leave them alone with the child, then the baby will be fine. We are being sure to keep the cats away from our daughter once she is born, only when we sleep at night. Just being extra cautious!
My sister had two cats when she had her twins that were inside cats and it was fine. I heard that out door cats sometimes have toxoplasmosis because they tend to eat dead birds and mice. If your cat is an out door cat then you can take it to the vet to make sure it doesn't have toxoplasmosis. . If it does then get someone to look after her till she is done the meds.
I personally would keep the cat in and get a box. The biggest cause for the bacteria is from cats that go outside. Indoor cats sometimes don't even carry the bacteria. If you do get scratched then wash immediately with soap and water. People can be immune to it and you can get it from lots of other things not just cats.
