namenda

Avatar n tn my husband just started on Namenda, starter doses, however, while I was at work today, he took 3 of the pills(5mg), should I be concerned? do I just have him continue tomorrow with the correct one pill in the morning? doesn''t seem to have any side effects.
20003388 tn?1515166040 I'm just curious if anyone has been on Namenda and could tell me how long the initial brain fog lasted for you? I just started Namenda yesterday, 5 mg a day for 1 week then 10 mg a day in divided doses. I have memory issues and severe cognitive impairment. I was put on Namenda by a neurologist after a thorough examination. I expect the brain fog from starting Namenda up but am just trying to get a time frame for when I could expect the initial brain fog to wear off. Thanks everyone.
1030383 tn?1338460785 As for treating tardive, standard options include Bachofen, Aricept, Requip and Mirapex. More experimental options include Namenda, Tetrabenzene and Zofran. Vimpat has been helpful in me and will be written up in a case study but that's a clinical first literally. One natural remedy that if supervised by a neurologist can be markedly helpful is rhodiola. Botox shots for focal dystonia are helpful if it is limited to one area.
Avatar f tn My neighbors doctor prescribed fluoxetine and namenda before MRI being done.test came back no signs of alzheimers disease. Should she continue to take ? She is 80 years old somewhat forgetful nothing to make you say you can't function she is 80.
Avatar n tn He is on Namenda and Plavix, is it possible that Adderall could help with his short term memory loss. Before the accident he lived on his own.
Avatar n tn What could be causing me to have all of them. I am under pretty good control as I take neurontin and namenda. Before I was put on namenda i was having rhizotomies almost every three months due to the excruciating pain.
Avatar n tn I read your post to me about how you don't like block/replace therapy, and that you like MMI titration, what is that? HOw do you keep your patients from going hypo thyroid on only ATD's? and if they do go hypo, how do you help them if you don't use replacement? Also, does using ATD's burn out your thyroid? and does replacement burn out your thyroid? Do you consider 5mg of MMI to be a high dose of ATD?
437079 tn?1222438840 Can anyone tell me what is a Oxygen Titration test is about I will be having this tes on 4/9/08. It kinda scare me a little bit. What will they be doing for me doing this Titration.
Avatar f tn I, like many of you, take handfuls of drugs just to live thru the day and suffer side effects from the drugs is just as debilitating as the pain. My doctor allowed me to try Namenda, which is a alzheimer drug that works by calming overactive neurons in the brain. There has been studies to see if it helped chronic pain and most of them showed it did not. I wanted to try it for myself and she allowed me too. My shrink also thought it was a good idea to try.
Avatar m tn Hi everyone, 4 days ago I started treatment with Viekirax pak without Ribavirin, till now no side effects noticed, in truth I feeling even better than before treatment.

Avatar n tn 00 noon approximately 23 hrs after I took the 1g of z-pak ?
585414 tn?1288941302 Yes I am somewhat familiar with that. For example Namenda which is used to treat dementia is in clinical study as a mood stabilizer and to treat tardive dyskinesia. However as those medications specifically effect those receptors by mitigating their activity they work in an opposite manner to glycine and the NMDA receptor modulates.

458072 tn?1291415186 my concern is that they are wanting me to take a pred pak afterward to help keep the swelling down. I told the dr about the elevated cortisol levels and my concern with taking prednisone, but he said it would be no problem. Now, this is a ENT doc so I am doubting he even knows about elevated cortisol. Do any of you have any info you could pass along or websites that I could check into this? I have googled high cortisol+prednisone and came up with nothing, really. Thanks!
18227105 tn?1463522012 t require you to take Ribavirin at least not usually. Qurevo (aka Viekira Pak in the US) will require you to take ribavirin. Also Viekira Pak is multiple pills a day while harvoni is just one. At least as best as I can tell Qurevo is Viekira Pak made my Abbvie Pharmaceuticals while Harvoni is manufactured by Gilead Pharmaceuticals. But I would go with what your doctor recommends and you can get.
408795 tn?1324935675 I'm wondering if anyone went through tx with Viekira Pak and if you did, what were your side effects. I know I could simply google side effects for Viekira Pak but I want to know what members here felt. Were you able to continue working while on Viekira Pak? Sorry if my question sounds a bit off kilter but I've been out of the HepC loop for a while now. much appreciation!
Avatar m tn So I'm an idiot. Got drunk the night after being prescribed Z-Pak (1 gram at once) because the clinic prefers to overtreat and said it looked like I "might" have something. The condom broke. Wondering A) if the Z-pak would prevent me from getting any new infection from this partner, even though I took it 36 hours before and B) what are the chances I infected the partner with anything? When we turned on the lights, it turned out she was bleeding so that freaked me out too.
Avatar m tn Hello all, I am on last week of Viekira Pak treatment, after 4 weeks UNDETECTED, through all treatment didn’t had any side effects and every day looks like that I have more energy. The question I have, after treatment I need to go to the dentist but I am bit afraid because he will use painkillers and it could react with Viekira pak drugs which it will be still in my blood.
Avatar f tn i still believe it is from the z pak,does anyone know if permanent damage can be from a z pak?
Avatar f tn yes people are curing with this combo however Ribavirin is not always needed with viekira pak it depends on genotype of hep c and if you have cirrhosis
1673169 tn?1316541930 From what my psychiatrist told me when I was transfering from Tegretol (and other mood stabilizers that are anti-convulsants) to another medication that if the titration schedule is followed seizures are generally not a concern but you could speak to your psychiatrist more about this.
Avatar f tn well,where do i start,i was put on azithrymicin,z pak, got bacteria vaginosis,was given a round of flagyl after 10 days after being on the z pak,developed thrush and only took 2 flagyl so i never cleared the bv. took nyastin for a week did not work,then fluconzole for a week ,1 pill 100 mg for 7 days,worked ut i think i got lichen planus in my mouth. tongue hurts and burning,now i still have o take flagyl to clear up the bv.
Avatar n tn Hi Margypops, Axona is a brand-new prescription therapy launched in March 2009 for the treatment of mild-moderate Alzheimer's disease. As Alzheimer's is marked by a decrease in glucose in the brain (the primary source of food for the brain), Axona acts by providing/metabolizing glucose in the body to act as an alternate source of food for the brain.
276146 tn?1453921024 Hey guys, thought I'd ask you knowledgeable folks here your thoughts...I'm treatment naive, gt 1b, low viral load, fibroscan 4.5, had hep c for 40 years, yet "not sick enough" for my plan to pay for Harvoni for 8 weeks. My Dr. suggested Abbvie's Viekira Pak. He said very high success rate for 1b's...12 weeks, no riba, more pill burden than the one pill Harvoni, but I'm tired of waiting, nor do I have the energy to battle the insurance company...
