exelon

Avatar n tn Exelon patch is on back order from the manufacturer until October 24. What alternatives are there?
Avatar n tn 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?
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar f tn t tried that patch buy I did find a site offering comparisons of different anti-nausea drugs at http://www.drugs.com/condition/nausea-vomiting.html. I hope that helps!
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn 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. 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.

Avatar m tn can i combine 225mg. of effexor xr with exelon or dexamphetamine to help my sedated or lethargic condition?
Avatar n tn It would be helpful if the Exelon Patch advertisers didn't feel it was necessary to have their information on continual scroll. There is a reason why I don't read rolling credits at the end of a movie, too. They usually roll too fast to read and simply hurt my head and can trigger migraines. Most of the time I don't see rolling adds, but when I do, I'm put off. Uh...I did not search for anything that would have had anything to do with this particular advertiser.
591470 tn?1218975186 Ask your Psychiatrist about the new MAOI Patch that is now avalible. It's an MAOI in a transdermal patch form. With this new method of delivery, much of the food interaction risk is removed because the drug is delivered thru the skin rather than by tablet thru the digestive system. This new patch is sometimes a good alternative for people that can not tolerate SSRI and SNRI medications.
Avatar f tn or is it remaining symptoms of the effexor discontinuation??? At what point can a person determine that it is NO LONGER discontinuation symptoms and that you need an antidepressant to stabilize mood? 3 months, 6 months, 1 year?????? Any replies and or information will be greatly appreciated!!!!!
Avatar f tn I feel at such a loss in trying to help my Mother. I've gone back to Neurologist and am awaiting his advise, but he doesn't appear to be emphathetic to this issue. Her GP defers to the neurologist. My 81 yr old Mother in middle to late stage Alzheimer's. She is not on any anti-anxiety med except for Paxil which was prescribed about a month ago. She gets aggitated during the day at times and especially sundowners time.
Avatar m tn Butin your case if we suspect a liver failure it might be necessary. Note that some drug are available in patch you can stick on your body, this way you avoid liver damage and you could get the benefit of a drug to reduce the withdrawal symptoms. Since you do want to stop it cold turkey since in some case in can lead to suicide and some effects are really bad. Here's what wikipedia had to say on the Mirtazapine withdrawal.
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar n tn The medications I am sensitive to are the ones which effect dopamine and noreprinepine. I also have had discontinuation syndrome (electric zings) when I have tried to come off of SSRI's. At one point I was unable to function for a month because of the constant zinging in my head, eyes, and body. Does anyone have any suggestions? My Psychiatrist talked to me about an MAOI inhibitor. I'm not sure about that.
