5520965 tn?1506009040 Hi there, Non-urgent question - sent to my cardiologist but he's out of town for a few days. I'm on Isosorbide mononitrate ( generic Imdur ) 30mg once a day, and I have an active scrip for Nitrostat as well, to treat my angina. If ever needed, can a Nitrostat SL be taken when I'm already on Isosorbide Mononitrate without harmful effect?
Avatar f tn There is no benefit to taking this sublingually that I know of. Generally the reason you take anything that way is to get it into your system as quickly as possible or because saliva is beneficial to absorption. With 5-HTP, it takes some time for your system to react to it assuming your body finds it necessary to have more coming in -- if it doesn't, it just evacuates it. The same thing is true when you take medication targeted at serotonin, though they work quit differently.
1500525 tn?1458529998 I was dx w/CHF in 2014. I've had 3 heart attacks & my ef was about 15 about 6 months ago. I don't take any cardiac med w/the exception nitrostat when needed bcuz I also have ALS. The 2 illnesses r completely unrelated according to the Drs I saw at Mayo, Hopkins & NIH.But for that reason I dont take any medications for the heart failure.as of lately during my last echo I was told that I now also have Afib.
Avatar m tn Where do you people come up with all of this? If you have symptoms and you're ill go to the doctor. As for salivary gland disease. I've never seen anyone with it.
Avatar f tn So when i read this I thought maybe I would get more out of it with sublingual absorption. I take 2.5 grain. They have one pill which is the 2 grain and then the .5. I took the 2 under the tongue this morning and after lunch will take the .5. So far I haven't noticed much difference at all. Thanks for your input. I wonder what Stella has to say on about this i don't think I read that one or maybe that is where I got the idea not sure.

Avatar n tn I get home an hour later they call me saying they say a shadow on/around the heart..probably blockage. They immediately phone in Nitrostat, and 25 mg of Metorpolol. This has me on high alert. I went 9 minutes on the stress test with no pain what so ever. I am 40lbs overweight, fairly active, and female, I eat pretty healthy, but my family history has a lot of heart failure. I see the doctor next week. Before I go I am to fitted with a heart monitor halter for 24 hours.
577700 tn?1217892127 I final got on Armour and trying to figure out how to take it with the other meds that I take. I take estrogen and iron as well as a wellbutrin. I have been taking Armour sublingual, my question is can I take the other meds at the same time since they are being swallowed?
Avatar f tn She told me to get a bottle of 1,000 mcg and take it every day for a couple of months and see if it goes away. I went to walmart and all they had was the 2500 or 5000 sublingual. Is this too much or is it water soluble? She didn't say to get the sublingual but I know from the past that I had been told many years ago that I didn't absorb it through the GI tract.
Avatar f tn I use Bioceuticals as it's the only B12 sublingual spray in Australia. O_o lol I take 2000 mcg daily (4 sprays under the tongue). Sublingual method bypasses the gut and goes directly into the blood stream very quickly. Bioceuticals uses cyanocobalamin form of B12 and this works well for me although this type of B12 doesn't last long in the tissues hence why symptoms show up quickly if I don't take enough. Cyanocobalamin shouldn't be used if you smoke or have liver issues.
Avatar f tn For decades intramuscular injections of B-12 were the only suitable treatment, but sublingual B-12 (disolving under the tongue - a very vascular area) has been demonstrated as an effective alternative. Generally the initial treatment is one or two intramuscular injections, followed by a daily dose of B-12 sublingually with folic acid.
Avatar m tn I have autoimmune pernicious anaemia and take sublingual B12 spray daily. I've been on B12 sublingual spray for 3 years with excellent results. I have had to up to dosage twice. Started my maintenance dose at 1000mcg, then need to up it to 1500mcg and now i'm currently on 2000mcg daily. On the odd ocassion i've run out of sublingual B12. The first time i did this i started to show up with symptoms, in particular unpleasant body odor and fatigue, in around 2 weeks.
232967 tn?1257740086 Well yes they explain to me that I do have Heart failure but not active right now it was a couple of weeks ago when I had water on me and he increase my Lasix. I do have the Dypnea everyday and the chest pain which I'm on imdur and Nitrostat. Well I'm going to get the hang of it one day @ a time.
1500525 tn?1458529998 t take any cardiac med w/the exception of isosorbide and nitrostat when needed bcuz of a separate unrelated illness but as of lately the isosorbide isn't working well. My question is, recently I have been getting angina below my left rib cage & pretty severe dizzy spells that stop my train of thought(nothing else has changed except I have been getting pain behind my left shoulder.
Avatar f tn What to do next? Go and find sublingual (under the tongue) B12 and increase your B12 levels. I use 2000 mcg of sublingual B12 spray daily for my autoimmune pernicious anaemia. Brillant! :) Delivery System/Rate of Absorption* Pill or tablet - 10% Capsule - 20% Gel Cap - 30% Transdermal Patch - 45% Sublingual Liquid - 50% Intramuscular Injection - 90% Intraoral or Sublingual Spray - 95% Intravenous Injection - 100% * Physicians' Desk Reference, NPPDR No.
Avatar f tn I was on injections to start with than changed to sublingual B12 tablets then to sublingual B12 spray (2000mcg daily currently). I have been treating for 3 years with no further changes however i have only used sublingual cyanocobalmin. I am thinking of trying methylcobalimin out however to see if anything happens. Can't hurt.
Avatar f tn Hey Bama, If they are snorting, it is likely Buprenorphine (Subutex) which is meant for sublingual use but can be snorted or injected. Suboxone is not absorbed well into the body via any method other than sublingual. Suboxne is Subutex with Naloxone added. Naloxone is a drug that precipitates withdrawl. If you are addicted to another opiate and you use Suboxone, you are subject to be in instant withdrawl instead of getting high. Regardless, it is evil stuff.
Avatar f tn Not taking sub lingual ! Just 1000mcg per day.....
Avatar n tn Had oral sex with a woman I met on adult website now have swollen sublingual area and swollen lymph node could this be sti also was on 100 Doxycycline hylate a day for acne for awhile would this prevent any thing?

1687979 tn?1312888645 I found that my hcg source has sublingual pellets. Has anyone tried those? I'm very tempted since I'm always questioning my self if I gotten the right amount of drops or not.
Avatar m tn I take sublingual B12 spray daily for autoimmune pernicious anaemia (cannot absorb vitamin B12). Look for sublingual forms of vitamins and minerals to bypass your gut. Check out Vitamist which have a lot of sublingual products. Dr Mercola also sells vitamin D and vitamin B12 and melatonin in sublingual spray.
Avatar n tn With intrinsic factor, 56% of a 1 mcg dose of vitamin B12 is absorbed. However, if you exceed the capacity of intrinsic factor (between 1 and 2 mcg) the percentage of B12 absorbed is reduced. Approximately 10 mcg of B12 is absorbed from a 500 mcg supplement. A small percentage (1 to 3%) of vitamin B12 intake is absorbed through passive diffusion without intrinsic factor.
