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.

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 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 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.
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.

1929539 tn?1327250432 I developed pseudo after my first surgery about 2 months afterwards. I dealt with it for almost a year before i had another decompression & it was said to be corrected They go back in if I got this right with a new patch to try & close it. I started having issues again & i had another pseudo that is 5cm which is 1cm bigger than the first,. I dont think pseduo wants to leave me. Zygy has battled with pseudo as well.
Avatar n tn Thank you. I notice you are in Cleveland and have a question regarding Mom. She has been treated for the last few years for Alzheimer's with an Exelon patch. I am not sure why she isn't on any other therapy but this is what her family doc has her on. She has not been "formaly" diagnosed however, the stress of the situation with dad has sent her downward very quickly. Unfortunetly without him, her anchor, her condition has become severe.

1858011 tn?1319837353 They are the makers of the Duragesic (brand name) patch. I was on the 50mg patch that I changed every 72 hours. It has been wonderful. There is also a generic version, too. If you have insurance I would imagine you could go on it right away. Check with your doctor, and see if he will prescribe it. It is a form of Morphine. You may get great relief as I have. I hope this information helps. It is terrible to have that much pain. I understand how debilitating it is.
Avatar n tn How many times can blood patch be done? What kind of doctor is responsible for this treatment? How many days need to pass between the treatment? My sister died in August, 2007 a month after she gave a birth to a beautiful girl. During the labor she was given an epidural anesthesia when the anesthesiologist made a hole in the dura. after that my sister had a terrible headache and the same doctor-anesthesiologist treated her at her home for a month.

So, you will have to consult your doctor at the suboxone clinic for proper guidance. It can be taken as tablets or sublingual film. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.

Avatar n tn I was wondering if there is any treatment to desensitise my feet or failing that a good treatment to help heal and relieve the symptoms. Any help would be much appreciated.
Avatar m tn 12 days ago I had an accident with a high powered pressure washer that removed a patch of skin off my calf down to the fat layer. The rectangular missing patch is roughly 1.25" X .5". I began treating it with Neosporin and covering it at night and when outside. Inside during the day I had uncovered it to let it dry. No infection at all. The rate of closure on the wound seems to be very slow.
6425474 tn?1381182466 From there he will hopefully end up with the proper treatment for detoxing and possibly a treatment center for his addiction also. A treatment center will create a complete change in his normal habitat along with a break from the people he hangs with. It will also create enough clean time before he gets back out into the world for him to get his thinking turned around. If nothing changes nothing changes. It's as simple as that. He needs to change his playground, playmates and playthings.
Avatar n tn My retinal specialist diagoses me a atrophy patch in my right eye. He only told me that because of my myopic streached retina the blood supply in that area was to weak and that the photoreceptors died. I do see a patch blind spot, but i can't define if is in my central vision or peripheral, because i see the wave in the ambler grid, but in the real life i won't recognize the letter or anything sharp in that area anyway.
