skelaxin

Avatar f tn recurrence of PDR, diabetic macular edema, localized bleeding, localize leakage of cholesterol, large areas of ischemic retina. There is a classification system for PDR based on how many quadrants have PDR.
Avatar n tn Consult the "Blueblook" or PDR (Physician's Desk Reference) for information on the manufacturer of any drug. It's available in most libraries. But don't be surprised if they have no conversation with you. There is little other information than that which is in the PDR that they could provide you with.
Avatar f tn I was told that "more spots (laser spots/burns) may be necessary in inactive PDR due to macular edema or lipid leakage.
1672951 tn?1303944089 You have to check the PDR (Physician's Desk Reference) which every drug store has. Bring your prescription. This contains every prescription medication legally produced in the United States. The druggest should not have blown you off. Locate the manufacturer from the PDR and request the druggest to order the medication.
Avatar m tn X-ray revealed nothing, and I have been through chiropractic and physical therapy with marginal relief at best ( ~ 24 hours.) medications used include metaxalone, valium and ibuprofen. stiffness has remained constant, w/ a reduced ROM when flexing my neck laterally. I also occasionally experience shooting pain up the left side of my neck when i rotate my head in that direction. Neck remains inflamed and "cracks" often.
Avatar f tn I am type 2 and have been diagnosed with PDR in both eyes. I've been getting Lucentis injections and they have improved my vision. The retina specialist said there is a new drug about to get FDA approval and he thinks it will work better for me than Lucentis. Can anybody tell me anything about this drug? And what will it cost?
Avatar f tn Your story is very common almost normal for treatment of proliferative diabetic retinopathy PDR . First of all your FA, OCT and eye exam will not be normal. You have diabetic retinopathy almost assuredly background DR and your PDR is inactive. Laser doesn't "cure" you it can just for a time stop progression. Laser works by killing tissue and creating scars so you have laser marks and scars inside your eye.
Avatar n tn t know too much about international pharmaceuticals... but india has something called tranax. Is there any way to ID this pill? Perhaps an india PDR or something?
142841 tn?1201975052 I believe it is. You can always check the PDR for the package insert. I have not heard of any insurance issues with Infergen. Side effects are pretty rough, but if you are strong and motivated, you can do it. Good luck!
Avatar f tn My PDR states that 3 of the medications I take can cause elevated blood sugars.
Avatar n tn I have taken up to 120mg of Cymbalta and never had hallucinations and I have never heard of anyone having hallucinations caused by Cymbalta. I looked it up in a PDR and hallucinations are not mentioned, not even one case. You will probably need an antipsychotic for the hallucinations if you continue to have them even when off Cymbalta.
Avatar m tn The PDR says that after 2 weeks the dose needs to be titrated down - so YES you need to wean off
484603 tn?1209506478 is a ssri for sure I'm on it and I'm reading on my pdr right now.
Avatar m tn I was lazy and just chose the simple PDR answer! Yours was much better!
Avatar f tn You could check the book "Physicians Desk Reference" (or "PDR") for dosing guidelines, but be sure to check with a licensed physician. Also check ilads (dot) com for Dr Burrascano's treatment guidelines. There may be useful information there. Also did you try searching something like "lyme disease iv rocephin dose"? Checking with an MD is important before proceeding with any such treatment. No one here is medically trained to my knowledge.
Avatar f tn that is a very informative news site....i like when you click on the PDR viewer...words are clear and precise....
Avatar f tn No. The red and white inhaler is associated with a brand name albuterol sulfate solution. They come in many colors. The color has no relationship to the severitu of the problem. I am concerned your physician provided you with this medication without explaining what it is and when it should be used. When you pick up a medicine at the pharmacy ask them for the "PDR package insert". This provides you with all the information you need about the medicine.
Avatar f tn Four-hundred mg is generally as high as most doctors will go (as per the PDR, I believe), but I've known people who were prescribed on as much as 450 mg. Going higher than this recommended limit increases risk of seizures. Your doctor also needs to assess your general medical condition, any other meds that you may be on, etc. My personal experience is there's no difference between generic and brand-name, aside from cost (and co-pay).
3145974 tn?1343086198 Hello, I suffer from treatment-resistant PD/GAD/PTSD. At long last, I found a *wonderful* psychiatrist who is sympathetic to my sufferings. She has me taking a total daily dose of 4 mg of alprazolam SR (the generic, NOT THE BRAND XANAX XR). My Medicare Part D insurance is as cheap as can be expected and they will NOT pay for the brand-name Xanax XR, and in my experience, brand-name psychotropics almost always are far superior to generics.
2063887 tn?1337829746 I was told the deep hip pain is caused by a deep spasm so close to the bone that you cannot see, but it is a spasm. Forget the technical name. Metaxalone was prescribed for me and it helps about 80% of the pain. I hope I answered your question, feel free to ping me if you have any more. I'm also in the MS community forum, and you can search Tysabri in the search field in that forum. We've had a ton of discussions on the drug. :) Hope you feel better soon!
Avatar m tn Neither Skelaxin (metaxalone) nor Celebrex (celecoxib) cause dependence. Your body will not crave either medication. You will not develop tolerance to either medication, nor will you suffer withdrawal symptoms in their absence. The usual dose of Skelaxin is 800mg every 6 to 8 hours (three or four times a day). Do not exceed the maximum daily dose, and don't mix Skelaxin with alcohol, barbiturates, or other CNS depressants.
Avatar f tn This happened to my niece on Concerta...she ended up having to change meds.
Avatar f tn Thank you. I was told that "more spots (laser spots/burns) may be necessary in inactive PDR due to macular edema or lipid leakage.
