Avatar n tn If I go back to the cytomel along with some sustained release T3, it will actually be slightly less T3 than I am on now, but it will be mostly immediate release rather than sustained release, if that makes sense. I seem to need way more of the sustained type than I did with the cytomel. I'm not sure why... Do you think combining a sustained release med with an immediate release med is a bad thing? Or does it matter?

Avatar m tn Would it be OK if you took a sustained-release medicine (that is supposed to stay in your blood for 24 hours) twice a day? Would there be a cumulative effect that could be dangerous perhaps? I don't think any retard-release drug can actually maintain a good therapeutic level for 24 hours, so taking them every 12 hours seems to be alright, but I don't know the mechanism with which it releases gradually, thus wondering if taking Metoprolol 25 mg slow-release every 12 hours would be safe.

Avatar m tn Also consumed 3 grams/day of omega 3 supplements and was on a relatively low carb diet during this period. Pretty sure the sustained release Niacin may be culprit but anyone familiar with anything else that would raise these three enzymes as noted above. I have stopped the Slo Niacin. What's a reasonable time to recheck blood after getting off the Niacin....a month? Also, note that BUN/Creatine just slightly high and ALP, Bilirubin, A/G,Albumin, etc liver markers were all normal.

Avatar n tn Hi... I see that you are getting that four times a day. My doc prescribes that med for every 6 to 8 hours, not every 4 hours. I wonder if that is why you are having so much trouble. Xopenex isn't supposed to make your heart race as much..I am on Xopenex after my doc switched me from albuterol due to my heart arrhythmias (albuterol made them much worse) and it has been much better for me as long as I dont take it more than 3 times a day.

Avatar f tn With all 3 of those meds, and especially Oxcarbazepine, you can find discussions online about amenorrhea, which means your periods stop. You might want to discuss this with your doctor, as websites suggest, if you're taking these medications and your menstrual period changes. Best wishes.

Avatar f tn From a compounding pharmacy: "Cytomel is immediate release T3, and compounded T3 is a 12 hour sustained release T3, therefore you are getting a continuous dose of T3 over a 12 hour period, and not just a burst of T3 with the immediate release cytomel." Your SR T3 is releasing over a 12 hr period, so you have 12 hrs that you have none in your system. This has been found to be a problem with other members...
Avatar f tn Hi, I have many symptoms of hypothyroid but my thyroid levels are normal, so my physician prescribed low-dose (5mg) Cytomel in the hopes of alleviating my symptoms. Has anyone taken Cytomel (not the sustained-release form, just the regular instant-release form) for Wilson's Syndrome? If so, could you please share your story? Did Cytomel work? Did you try the sustained-released form of T3?
Avatar n tn In general, uncoated tablets are absorbed extensively in the proximal ( beginning )portion of the GI tract; therefore, delayed-release tablets are used to achieve a local effect in the colon. Following oral administration, 20—30% of a dose is absorbed, with peak plasma concentrations achieved in 3—12 hours. It is specially formulated to release the medicine after it has passed through your stomach into your intestines. If you are finding only the shell that is very common.
Avatar f tn UMM I am in shock I have never heard of using morphine for ultram withdrawl. How long and how much does he have you on it for . I am hoping a very short time. here is alittle info on it MORPHINE (MS Contin®, Oramorph®, Kadian®) relieves moderate to severe pain. Morphine may also be used to treat pain associated with cancer, heart attacks, sickle cell disease and other medical conditions. This type of morphine is for people who need pain medicine for more than a few days.
