If you search 'ketoconazole' online, the first link that popped up for me is from the NIH (National Institutes of Health in DC) and the second one is from the website 'rxlist', which is pretty good imo at explaining medical/scientific/pharmaceutical stuff at a high level but not completely over my head. Rxlist seems pretty well balanced, and I usually go there when curious about some medication I'm supposed to take.
Besides Clonazepan, Solof, Lorazepan, Divalproex, Citalopran, Donepezil,Divalproex, Enalapril, Carb/Levo tab she started taking Ziprasidone four weeks ago.Please tell me if she should stop taking some of those medications.

Nervous System Disturbances
The NIH states that coma or convulsions could be a sign of Tylenol overdose. According to the RxList, such nervous system involvement is rare, except in the case of a massive overdose or if the person is also taking or has overdosed on other medications that may interfere with the nervous system. Coma can also occur during an overdose if the patient is going into liver failure.
She is not alcoholically person and never drink in her live. She has heart disease and take atorvastatin for 10 years and also donepezil and ladiomil for 4 years. Since her doctor discover problem with GOT and GPT she stopped taking atorvastatin (3mounts before) because they were suspicious that atorvastatin was reason for this problem but again GOP and GPT increase.

It can also cause fever and chills. The steriods do mask the sysptoms of chemo. rxlist has info about it.
Stroke might refer to a blockade in some of the brain arteries (ischemic stroke) or to a bleeding of those arteries (hemorrhagic strokes).
I think that Coumadin, being an anti coagulant, may cause strokes of the second type, in particular if associated with high BP.

09%), 2 X daily for 3 days prior to surgery. After looking on the RXlist medication information site, it says that Xibrom should be used only 24 hours prior to cataract surgery. Any longer could cause corneal adverse events......what kind of events? I'm really nervous about surgery and am beginning to question if I want to go through with it at this time.....What are preferred anesthesias? What do you think about injections, etc......
This is what I scouted out on Rxlist . com , which is a decent site. Do a little research on the web from reputable sites and you'll get a clearer picture considering your own personal health situation.

General: ROXICODONE® is intended for use in patients who require oral pain therapy with an opioid agonist. As with any opi-oid analgesic, it is critical to adjust the dosing regimen individually for each patient (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION).
Benzodiazepines can very well be addicting meds, they are a schedule class III drug, the same category as Vicoden. From rxlist "Use of benzodiazepines, including lorazepam, may lead to physical and psychological dependence." So i would definitely talk with your doctor before stopping these meds, you might have to do a slow taper. Best of luck to you!
You could try doing a search on the internet. rxlist might be a good place to start. They usually disclose what medications are indicated for.
Did you challenge your doctor on the choice of med or mention your concerns?
medicinenet, rxlist, or the NIH drug info page for more details), but best to check with your doctor.
Hello,
Short term memory loss after brain surgery is more common than you might think.
Let me break this into a two part answer, first the basic info about standard approaches, and second, what I have seen happen over the years working with patients that had brain trauma from different sources;
First, Rehabilitation after brain tumor surgery that results in memory loss typically involves psychotherapy and cognitive therapy.
She is taking hydralazine 50mg for high BP, Sertraline 25mg for depression, Nitrofur Mac 50mg for UTI, Donepezil 10mg for memory loss, and Novolin for high blood sugar. We also have a PT that comes to her house but that is not really helping.
I checked FDA and found hallucinations mentioned in relationship to having Serotonin Syndrome but not anywhere else. I checked an online PDR - rxlist and found research with 3779 people with MDD with no mention of hallucinations. Drugs.com also no mention of hallucinations.
I did not say it could not be Cymbalta causing hallucinations, I said the PDR didn't include hallucinations. I said I didn't have hallucinations. I have now done more research. Where is yours?

TORADOL ORAL (ketorolac tromethamine), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is indicated for the short-term (up to 5 days in adults), management of moderately severe acute pain that requires analgesia at the opioid level and only as continuation treatment following IV or IM dosing of ketorolac tromethamine, if necessary. The total combined duration of use of TORADOL ORAL and ketorolac tromethamine should not exceed 5 days.

I have been seeing several doctors (all cross referred) and all are perplexed (thier words). Meanwhile I am confused, frustrated and suffering.
I am a married 53yo tall otherwise avg male. Until 18mo ago I was in good health, very active, and a college professor. I do not drink or do drugs. I am now unable to work or do most of the activities I once enjoyed. My mother died of cancer and my father died ostensibly from alcohol induced cerebral ataxia.
I went to that page but could not find this statement but rxlist will have it somewhere there. Pretty low incidence but possible as it is with many A/D's.
Like you, I had never had a hint of bi polar in my life until, at age 48 I had a 6 week hypomanic episode. I'm sure that was due to mal treatment as the pdoc at that location virtually gave me only one drug, a psychotic for anger.
