1654058 tn?1407159066 Karen, Your platelets are already low, and NSAIDs can increase the risk for bleeding; imho, acetaminophen over the ibuprofen, hands down. With low platelets from tx and a compromised liver and kidney system, any of the NSAIDs are contra-indicated for you (includes Motrin, Advil, Aleve). Tylenol is not to be taken indiscriminately either, though. With cirrhosis, no more than 2000 mg per day max (that means no more than 4 Extra Strength Tylenol in any 24 hour period).
Avatar f tn I had knee surgery a year ago and have been taking approximately 400 mg of ibuprohen daily for pain. Can this be a temporary toxicity to the pain med with a return to higher level of my GFR upon cessation? Praying in Texas!
620923 tn?1452915648 Interestingly, the pop up ad near this was for vitamins for withdrawal from opiates. I couldn't tell what they are. I'm sure some suggestions could be found online or right here at medhelp. I found suggestions for lots of Vit. B & C for toxicity. I did this myself for serotonin toxicity, which took much longer than any source claimed. I'm off everything except ibuprofen (but I am trying a very small dose of mirtazapine at night, to sleep).
Avatar f tn I have had really bad issues with walking, now requiring a can, for about a year. Diagnosed with Spinal Stenosis. It's gotten so bad that I started doing research. I have been doing 5-day energy shots daily for 6 months now - about 40mg of B6 per day (was doing emergen-c's before that). I'm thinking my walking, tingling may indeed be B6 toxicity and am going for a blood test this afternoon. I've gotten a lot of good information from this group - thank you.
Avatar n tn I apologize if this is not the best suited forum for this question but it was difficult to find a more appropriate topic. I am a hypothyroid patient but my treatment levels are optimal (low TSH and FT-4 & FT-3 both at between mid-range and high-normal). With my hypothyroid treatment staying optimized, I still began to develop worsening symptoms of muscle weakness, headach and neurological types symptoms.

Avatar n tn s stomach, and if the dog continues to be dosed with ibuprofen, it leads to kidney failure and, eventually, death. Most of the time, cases of ibuprofen toxicity are those in which the owners thought they were helping their dogs by dosing them to alleviate pain from injuries or arthritis, or those cases where a dog has gotten into the medication on its own and has helped itself to several pills or has eaten most of a bottle at once.
Avatar m tn Can Kidney pain be a side effect of taking Ibuprofen? I was taking ibuprofen last week consecutively for 3 days (400mg t.i.d) after laser eye surgery. A day or so after starting it I experienced mild pain/discomfort in my left flank that came in waves. When I stopped taking the ibuprofen the flank pain also stopped. The next day I took one more dose - the flank pain started again within an hour, but was gone the next day.
Avatar f tn Check the web address below!! http://www.healthgrades.com/medical-toxicology-directory/al-alabama Ask the doctor about starting very gradually on magnesium as it affects how B6 is utilized in the body - which could help with detoxing.
Avatar m tn Headaches, mood changes, severe fatigue, nerve damage are few common side effects reported. There is no prescribed treatment for vitamin b6 toxicity. You may limit the intake of foods and supplements rich in this vitamin to overcome the condition. The span varies person to person and may be as long as 6 months. Do write to me with more queries. Best luck and regards!
Avatar f tn Studies have demonstrated that at certain dosages, ibuprofen can stress the liver and elevate liver enzymes in people with Hepatitis C. Ibuprofen must be used with extreme caution in the later stages of liver disease and for those on interferon therapy. 3. Aspirin – (Bayer, Anacin, Excedrin and others) reduces fever, relieves pain, and acts as an anti-inflammatory and blood thinner.
Avatar f tn I would stay away from any type of herbal remedies. There is no regulating, or monitoring of herbs, and when mixed with some medications, can be very dangerous. People hear Herb or Natural and assume they're safe, and they're not.

Avatar m tn Also wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove.

Avatar m tn I have taken care of TWO patients in the past; one who had tylenol toxicity and the other one had ibuprofen toxicity. Both patients were going into liver failure in which was caught in time. Both thought is was ok to take more than the RECOMMENDED amount of medication. Please be careful.
Avatar m tn Which pain med has a more negative effect on the liver after long term use, ibuprofen or darvocet?
Avatar f tn The animals were sacrificed 1 week after receiving the last treatment of MTX. The germ cell toxicity was evaluated using testes weight (wt), sperm count, sperm head morphology, sperm comet assay, histology, TUNEL and halo assay in testis. MTX treatment significantly reduced the sperm count and increased the occurrence of sperm head abnormalities in a dose dependent manner. It induced the testicular toxicity as evident from the histology of testis.
801188 tn?1241647626 Does that not mean that quite apart from the same giving up the drug that we all face, these guys have a huge problem with respect to liver toxicity? Or have I missed something completely? Are they either getting pure hydro or extracting it which I presume is possible in similar ways to other opiates - I hope I haven't said too much about that, apologies if I have.
Avatar m tn The concern is that your liver cannot sustain this level of toxicity. You are NOT immune to the side effects, you just think you are because you do not experience any symptoms yet... Please check yourself in the hospital asap! Here's a short story that appeared in the Toronto Star a few years ago, which relates to all this. In 2006, a couple from Vancouver Island, Chuck and Tammie Campbell, received a phone call from their daughter’s roommate: something was wrong with Ashley.
Avatar m tn Ibuprofen is TOXIC to dogs.....Even a small dose (For a Human headache) can build up and be too much for a dog.....Causes Bleeding Ulcers, Liver Damage, and can be fatal... It is too late to induce vomiting....Your best bet is to get the dog to your Vet! They can try to flush his system with IV's.....Hopefully, to move the chemicals out quicker....They can also give Charcoal to bind the toxins in the stomach....It probably has been too long for this, though.....

Avatar m tn less than 50 IU/ml by Amplicore method) was performed. The EVR rate was 65.9% in the group receiving ezetimibe, which was significantly higher (p=0.002) compared to 45.2% in the group not receiving ezetimibe. In multivariate analysis, concomitant administration of ezetimibe was selected as a factor contributing to EVR (odds ratio: 2.993, p=0.004). The cumulative HCV RNA negativity rate was also significantly higher in the group receiving ezetimibe (p=0.0035).
Avatar m tn Also wear cotton undergarments.Application of mild corticosteroid cream and oral antiinflammatories like ibuprofen/acetaminophen are also helpful.If the symptoms are severe then it will be best to consult a dermatologist.
