Exelon patch is on back order from the manufacturer until October 24. What alternatives are there?
t calming her down any, and she did not refil the prescription. 2 months later she had another bad dream and the doctor was notified. He then prescribed exelon.
My question: If she does not have Alzheimer's disease, why would he prescribe either of these medicines for her? If this is dimentia, aren't there other drugs out there for that or even drugs that have a claming effect? From what I have read about excelon, I am not sure if it is compatible with her heart medication.
My husband has been prescibed the the 9.5 exelon patch but we still have a supply of the 4.6 patches. With them being so expensive can I use two of the 4.6 patches at the same time until we run out?
can i combine 225mg. of effexor xr with exelon or dexamphetamine to help my sedated or lethargic condition?
She has since tested negative for H Pylori, and has been taken off Razadyne(24 mg ) for memory problems, put on Exelon (6mg patch), then taken off it after two weeks and more nausea. She has been off the Exelon patch for 72 hours, and still experiences nausea when she moves about.
Still puzzling and frustrating. doctors are stumped (still) and I am feeling worthless because I cannot help her kick the nausea or find the cause.
Really looking for help here. Any will be gratefully accepted.
In a world where everything has to be ruled out - before MS can be ruled in . . . is it any wonder we question our own symptoms and diagnosis? I've been running this through my mind for two years now; in fact, my own self-doubt allowed me to spend a year with a neuro who was a self-confessed conservative when it came to treatment. I took my labs and MRIs to a new neuro this past Monday, and within the hour was discussing DMD options.
Never had a problem until now. He started with temp memory loss and the doctor put him on 2 Exelon Patches per day to help him with the memory loss and also he now on Oxcarbazepine 300 mg. My question is with him taking these two type of medications he is still having seizure and cant sleep. Me as a mother do know what to think and do to help him. Can someone help me with this.

She has been off the Exelon patch for 72 hours, and still experiences nausea when she moves about. Recently, she started back on the lower dose of Razadyne. Her neurologist doesn't think the medicine is the cause of the nausea, though it could be aggrivating whatever is causing it.

Thanks Ess, I look forward to hearing all about it. If they post anything from the sessions online, let us know!
On that note as promised, I need to post the info from the MS Symposium in L.A. from this past May. Stay tuned...
THAT IS HILARIOUS MY DEAR! I Laughed so hard I almost died...hubby loved it too!
Good to hear from you Ess. I've wondered how you were doing often and hoped you were putting all your efforts into healing. We'll be here when you have the time, energy and equipment to join us. Until then, we are with you in thought.
Mary
P.S. Do you think Best Buy takes trade-ins of used durable medical equipment for computers?
On behalf of Dr. Awesome, thanks for the plug Ess :-)
This is a good time of year to to think about gifts other than those that go under the tree. We here have a ready made cause and the organizations Ess mentioned are truly worthy.
