Avatar n tn Took for 1week 5mg desloratadine after my ivf. transfer. Started the antihistamine day 6 after embryo transfer without thinking or consulting the dr.(i always took it during pregnancy and thought its safe but never at such an early stage of pregnancy). Tested positive BHCG day8 after transfer +hcg22 day11+hcg53 day16 hcg56 day18 dropped hcg36. Can the reason of miscarriage be the use of antihistamine ? can antihistamine stop implantation from continuing ?
Avatar m tn Hi, welcome to the forum, patients with this condition develop the rapid onset of a wheal or hives and flare reaction after firm stroking, scratching, or the application of pressure to the skin. In simple urticaria i.e. in absence of itching no treatment is required. If it is associated with antihistamines like citirizine or loratidine can be used against prescription. This helps to prevent such attacks.
Avatar f tn t buy it regularly as it is more expensive is Aerius which uses desloratadine, a metabolite of loratadine (copied from their site). I got no side effects from either one.
Avatar n tn Loratadine is considered a placebo by many doctors (and many patients that I have talked to). Zyrtec and Allegra are good choices. Since Allegra just came OTC, it will be much more expensive the Zyrtec generic. I take Zyrtec. Take care and feel better. God bless.
Avatar f tn t forget that Synthroid IS Levothyroxine. it just has a special name, like Claritin, which is Loratadine. Products labeled Loratadine in the drug store is a fraction of the cost of Claritin and works the same!!
Avatar m tn I started taking fexofenadine 180mg per day with no results for about a week. Also took benadryl for a week with no results. I then changed to betametasone 0.6mg + desloratadine, 2 per day for three days then 1 per day for 3 days, which made the itching go away about the third day but came back soon after the fifth day while taking it. I went to see my allergist. I have rhinitis and once (8 years ago) I had acute urticaria that solved with an injection of corticosteroids.
Avatar m tn You can find easily an over the counter over-the counter antihistamines (e.g., loratadine, desloratadine, cetirizine, fexofenadine) which can be used to help with symptoms. You may also use over the counter smoothening, antipruritic agents to get relief. Also use mild soaps and calamine lotion which helps in soothing the skin. If the symptoms persist then you may need topical steroids.

Avatar n tn Hi, You could take oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine and see if it helps with your symptoms. Also take steam inhalation and saline nasal drops several times a day. If your symptoms still persist, you should consult your doctor because then you would need to get certain investigations done and would probably need steroid nasal sprays and a course of antibiotics. Let us know about any other doubts that you have and post us on how you are doing. Regards.

The proportion of patients who achieved SVR with 24 weeks of triple therapy following a lead-in phase was 56% (P = .0005 vs standard of care) vs 54% with 28 weeks of triple therapy and no lead-in treatment (P = .013 vs standard of care). Another important finding concerns the incidence and extent of anemia.
1331658 tn?1275341605 How much Zyrtec can I take? I am on 10mg of zyrtec a day and 20mg or Loratadine a day as well.

Avatar m tn The present study compared the efficacy of standard and extended durations of PEG-IFNα-2a monotherapy for treatment of HBeAg-negative Chinese patients with chronic hepatitis B. Patients were randomized to receive standard therapy (n = 38; 48 weeks treatment) or extended therapy (n = 42; 72 weeks treatment).
Avatar f tn Study Confirms Benefits of Vitamin E in Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis Megan Brooks May 4, 2010 — Supplementation with the natural form of vitamin E (800 IU/day) has beneficial effects in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), but pioglitazone's benefits are less clear, according to the latest findings from the Pioglitazone vs Vitamin E vs Placebo for the Treatment of Nondiabetic Patients with Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (PIVENS) trial, reported online April 28 in the New England
Avatar m tn Interestingly, ALT declined significantly in patients with supplementation (66 ±74 U/l vs. 49 ±41 U/L, P=0.01), but also in patients of group 2 (67 ±80 U/l vs. 49 ±49 U/L; P=0.03) but patients without vitamin D deficiency and without supplementation showed no change (P>0.05).
Avatar m tn 52% vs 26%, respectively; SVR: 26% vs 11%, respectively). These findings, which were published in the June issue of Gastroenterology, suggest that heavy coffee consumption is an independent predictor of improved virologic response to peginterferon and ribavirin treatment in patients with HCV infection." http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3264892/ http://www.hivandhepatitis.com/hep_c/news/2011/0621_2011_a.html http://www.natap.org/2010/AASLD/AASLD_26.

148588 tn?1465778809 -5.51 vs -4.83 log10 IU/mL). All 5 patients who received telaprevir/peginterferon/ribavirin triple therapy attained SVR compared with 8 of 9 patients assigned to peginterferon/ribavirin control (100% vs 89%). One must recognize, however, that infection with HCV genotype 2 has the highest cure rate of all HCV genotypes when treated with peginterferon/ribavirin.
148588 tn?1465778809 Overall, sustained virological response (SVR) was significantly higher in patients treated with peginterferon plus Chinese herbs than in patients treated with peginterferon alone (81 % vs. 64 %, respectively; odds ratio, 2.60; 95 % confidence interval: 1.32-5.14; p < 0.05). A combined therapy of peginterferon plus Chinese herbs was also superior to peginterferon therapy in achieving an early viral response (EVR, 80 % vs. 70 %, respectively), a viral response at week 24 of treatment (82 % vs.
Avatar m tn Here is the article I was referring to. I hadn't remembered that it addresses nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and not simple fatty liver so it may not be as applicable as I thought. Nevertheless I will post it.

1815939 tn?1377991799 Relapse was significantly higher in the 12-week group than in the 24-week group (5.9% vs 0.6%). Of the 12 patients in 12-week group who relapsed, 7 were genotype 1a null responders, he noted. High SVR12 rates were even achieved in patients with low platelet counts and low albumin levels. Of 17 patients who had virologic failure after 12 weeks of treatment, 15 were found to have at least 1 resistance-associated variant at the time of failure.
Avatar f tn Allegra, Zyrtec or loratadine. I was on 12.5 zoloft for 2 weeks and tapering up to 25 mg (split another 12.5 in half so 3/4 a pill then one whole 25 mg. I have to do this slowly as I am super sensitive to meds. Thanks for any help. Plus I eventually need to taper down my ativan when I level on the zoloft.
Avatar m tn According to results, treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 76.5% of patients in the Dialive group and 80% of patients in the standard of care group, with no significant differences between groups (95% CI, 0.35-0.29). At least one serious adverse event occurred in 64.7% and 53.3% (95% CI, 0.29-0.51), respectively. Of the serious adverse events in the Dialive group, researchers considered 41.2% related to treatment.
Avatar f tn [51] Rates of anemia were 45% with boceprevir (n = 323) vs 20% with pegIFN/RBV (n = 80) in the RESPOND-2 trial of treatment-experienced patients. In total, 10% of individuals in the treatment-experienced study and 6% of individuals in the treatment-naive study reported hemoglobin levels < 8.5 g/dL vs 1% and 3%, respectively, of those receiving pegIFN/RBV. Rates of dysgeusia in this trial were 44% with boceprevir vs 11% with pegIFN/RBV. Dysgeusia was not a major dose-limiting adverse effect.
Avatar m tn At the end of the 24-week follow-up, there were significant differences between the 48-week treatment group and the 72-week treatment group in patients with HBV DNA negativity (62.3% vs. 97.0%, x2 = 13.273, P = 0.000), HBeAg seroconversion (39.6% vs. 57.6%, x2 = 6.765, P = 0.009), HBsAg clearance (15.1% vs. 36.4%, x2 = 5.155, P = 0.023), and relapse (58.5% vs. 33.3%, x2 = 6.713, P = 0.010). Logistic regression analysis indicated that therapy duration was correlated to HBeAg clearance (OR = 3.
