Avatar m tn I am being successfully treated for a rare autoimmune condition with 15 mg prednisone and 1 gr mycophenolate daily. Although mycophenolate use involves a risk of opportunistic HSV infections, I was not warned about this. I recently had sex WITH A CONDOM with a partner whose status for HSV infection is unknown. Within about a day, I had developed numerous lesions. These spread rapidly and my doctor said they had an appearance consistent with HSV.
778275 tn?1326913623 I can sort of answer your first question. Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) or Cellcept has been extensively researched for its use in myasthenia gravis. Also, it carries a FDA black box warning that it may increase your chances of infection, lymphoma and congenital malformations (for pregnant women). Also, its optimal dose is yet undecided. Pyridostigmine (Mestinon) is the usual first line treatment for MG.
Avatar m tn Full and abbreviated ribavirin area under the concentration time curve from 0 to 4 and 0 to 12 hours (AUC(0-4h), AUC(0-12h)) were derived from plasma concentration profiles at day 0, week 12, week 12 + 1 day, and week 24. Virological response was assessed at day 0 (0, 12, and 24 hours), at weeks 2, 4, and 6, and then monthly through week 72, using a TaqMan polymerase chain reaction assay with an HCV viral load threshold of 15 IU/mL.

Avatar m tn Maximal serum concentrations (Cmax) occur between 15 and 44 hours post dose, and are sustained for up to 48 to 72 hours. The Cmax and AUC measurements of PegIntron increase in a dose-related manner. After multiple dosing, there is an increase in bioavailability of PegIntron. Week 48mean trough concentrations (320 pg/mL; range: 0, 2960) are approximately 3-fold higher than Week 4 mean trough concentrations (94 pg/mL; range: 0, 416).
Avatar m tn Effects of Food on Oral Absorption The systemic exposure (AUC) to telaprevir was increased by 237% when telaprevir was administered with a standard fat meal (containing 533 kcal and 21 g fat) compared to when telaprevir was administered under fasting conditions. In addition, the type of meal significantly affects exposure to telaprevir. Relative to fasting, when telaprevir was administered with a low-fat meal (249 kcal, 3.
Avatar f tn Increased incidences of fetal structural abnormalities and other manifestations of developmental toxicity, including lethality, growth retardation, and nervous and reproductive system functional impairment, were observed in the offspring of rats and rabbits given pregabalin during pregnancy, at doses that produced plasma pregabalin exposures (AUC) ≥5 times human exposure at the maximum recommended dose (MRD) of 600 mg/day.
Avatar f tn However, more variability was observed in some of the pharmacokinetic parameters for bupropion (AUC, Cmax, and Tmax) and its active metabolites (t½) in patients with mild to moderate hepatic cirrhosis.
1054753 tn?1339968724 i do not think that the loose bowel movements are directly related to the transplant itself. they could be from the medications such as mycophenolate or ursodiol. sometimes certain infections can also contribute. If the liver tests are OK, then the loose bowel movements are not from the liver.
Avatar m tn additional agents such as mycophenolate (cellcept) may be necessary or in cases of severe rejection a medication such as thymoglobulin may be needed.
Avatar m tn My doc is trying to reduce the dose. Since I was on tacrolimus only(as Mycophenolate causes TLC to go down in two occasion), sirolimus 1mg is started along with reduced tacrolimus(2mg BD, Tac level ~4.5). But the creatinine is still high(1.8). It seems some side effect of Sirolimus is also coming as the TLC is 3400 and platelet is 80,000. What do you suggest to bring creatinine under control? What is the way to determine the exact required dose of tacrolimus?
Avatar m tn The standard therapy options include intravenous immunoglobulin and plasmapharesis, corticosteroids, azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, etanercept, mycophenolate mofetil, interferon alpha 2a and tacrolimus. Current ones are interferon beta 1a, rituximab, and high dose cyclophosphamide. Your neurologist needs to apprise you of the long-term side effects since prolonged therapy are required. Botox shots are not known to be used in therapy.
Avatar n tn Hepatic Impairment In a pharmacokinetic study of sixteen subjects with hepatic impairment (15 mild, 1 moderate per Child-Pugh score), both AUC and Cmax were approximately double the values seen in the healthy control group. Based on the findings, Cyclobenzaprine HCl should be used with caution in subjects with mild hepatic impairment starting with the 5 mg dose and titrating slowly upward.
1253246 tn?1332073310 Both AUC and C-MAX increased by seventy percent when Rebetol Capsules were administered with a high fat meal: (841 kcal, 53.8 g fat, 31.6 g protein, and 57.4 g carbohydrate) in a single-dose pharmacokinetic study.
2114467 tn?1358210256 In 18 healthy subjects, administration of fluticasone propionate nasal spray (200 mcg once daily) in combination with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ritonavir (100 mg twice daily) for 7 days resulted in an approximately 25-fold increase in fluticasone peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and 350-fold increase in systemic exposure (AUC) compared to administration alone. These changes were accompanied by an 86% decrease in mean plasma cortisol AUC.". http://www.drugs.com/interactions-check.
