Avatar f tn ve been paranoid ever since I learned that Ranitidine had been recalled due to a link to cancer. Is a 2 month dose of Ranitidine something to worry about?
Avatar m tn I never shared a needle, alway bought fresh needles but may have shared the vial. The oil is in a glass vial and the needle is stuck into the vial to draw out the amount of oil to shoot. If I had vial that was drawn on by by another person with HIV is it possible for the virus to survive in the vial until I drew the oil for my use?

Avatar n tn A few years ago my doctor put me on 75 mg Ranitidine to take twice a day before meals. A couple years ago he also put me on 20 mg Omeprazole to take once a day for 14 days, after which he said I could start taking the Ranitidine again if i still had the heartburn.
520191 tn?1355635402 Over a year ago i was given ranitidine for the treatment of GERD. I took my first dose and i started to feel nausea so i went to bed, during the night i started vomiting and not like any vomit i had ever experienced before. i thought nothing of it, until my heart began to race through out the night. the next morning i thought i might be allergic to one of my medication as i was prescribed 2 medication all at once.
Avatar f tn The trick I learned in trying to get most fluid out of the vial was to insert the needle at a 45 degree angle or so, and to tilt the vial as you withdraw -- gets the fluid into a corner instead of spread out over the entire surface of the vial cap. I usually tried not to re-insert the needle, just tap it to make the air bubbles rise, push them out, and draw in the rest of the fluid. Hope that helps, and good luck!
Avatar f tn s a multi dose vial it does need to be refrigerated after opening. Sooo, which is it?? The vial contains 4 weeks worth of medication for me.
Avatar m tn I have seen a dentist to use same syringe for 2nd use xylocaine ijection (local anasthesia) from multi dose via for the same patient though new syringe is used for separate patient for the same vial. Can it make the rest of the vial nfected by HIV. Though no trace of blood seen in the xylocaine solution . what is the posiblity of getting hiv infection solution. how long HIV survive in the xylocaine even if some infected blood is entered in it.
Avatar f tn Some studies have linked EBV with Hashimoto's, but there's nothing conclusive. Some doctors have felt that Fibromyalgia is, basically, un or under-treated hypothyroidism, since Fibro and hypothyroidism share many symptoms and many/most of the symptoms go away if the patient is treated adequately with thyroid hormones.
Avatar f tn New syringes have been used every time but my concern is that the vaccine has been injected from multiple vial ( same bottle has been used for all of us). What if the vaccine vial is contaminated with HIV or other viruses? I'm so worried about this and not able to sleep. 2 years ago my mother has been diagnosed with cervical cancer and I have photodermititis which is chronic since 2 years. I have this constant fear that it is because of HIV.
15695260 tn?1549593113 Choices for a generic over the counter antacid just got smaller as the drug maker of generic ranitidine under the brand name of Zantac has pulled distribution of the medication world wide. Last week the FDA stated they found cancer causing chemicals in some samples taken from batches of generic rantitidine or Zantac. https://www.fda.
Avatar n tn When she reached over, she spilled some of the developing solution out of the vial. She went ahead and put the swab into the vial. Before the saliva began to travel up the device (before it began to turn from white to pink) the nurse took out a new developer vial, removed the swab completely from the vial it was in, and put it in the new vial. After this, the device seemed to operate normally. The pink traveled up the device. The line appeared on the control line.
2006603 tn?1331329327 Anyone use ranitidine while pregnant? I am 33w4d and yesterday my doc prescribed me 150mg tablets to take twice a day for heartburn. Anyone use ranitidine while pregnant? I just want to make sure its safe.
Avatar m tn In order to treat Acid Reflux/GERD I have been taking Ranitidine/Zantac per doctors advice. I started developing various side effects several months ago. To verify the side effects were caused by the ranitidine I would stop for a few weeks and use TUMS instead. I repeated this cycle several times. The symptoms would go away each time I was off the ranitidine for a week or so.
453798 tn?1262633421 I found out yesterday at my first RE appointment for dosage instructions that I need to take 150 iu yesterday, today and tomorrow. THAT IS 1/2 THE VIAL! UGGHH! I had no idea. For those of you that use this medicine, about how many ius do you use each month? I did find that Schraft has the cheapest price if you buy in bigger bulk. If you buy at least 1500 ius, they give you $100 off and their price is $718 for each 900 ius.
264121 tn?1313029456 s addressed this yet but I noticed that procrit, or at least - when I received my 20,000 unit bottles of epogen yesterday this was true - has a new multidose vial. This would have been all kinds of helpful to me when I was treating. I did some kind of dodgey things back then, like using non multi-dose vials more than once and/or storing epogen in an extra needle if I wanted to divide the bottle in half. Short of getting two different strengths of epo at the time, it was my only alternative.
Avatar m tn I have read dirty syringes are a risk for hiv because hiv lives in the air tight space for up to four weeks. I have also read that if a negative person was to use a vial of steroids that an hiv positive person had used (with a dirty needle) that there isn't a risk as long as the negative person uses a clean needle. (the reason being because hiv can't live long outside the body) I'm confused because I was under the impression that vials are air tight like syringes.
Avatar n tn Step 6 Insert the tip of the syringe into the vial and depress the plunger to push air into the vial. Immediately turn the vial upside down with the syringe still inside the vial. The tip should be below the medicine level and the liquid should flow into the syringe to the correct dosage line. Step 7 Pull the syringe from the vial; carefully expel any extra liquid inside the needle, if necessary. Step 8 Wipe the injection area with alcohol to remove any bacteria or other contaminants.
Avatar f tn Yesterday I went for my regular checkup...and got injected with antibiotics... I am sure they used new syringes but it was a multi dose vial.. Can't sleep whole night... Can I get hiv through multi dose vials as I saw Doctor used same syringe to refill it for second time on some other person....please help...
Avatar m tn Hi. I went for my Rabies shot which has a vial that contains the inactivated virus powder and an ampoule that has water. The water from the ampoule is filled in the syringe and injected into the vial first through a rubber part at the top and then the solution is mixed which is again filled in the syringe through the rubber part at the top and injected into the muscle. Anyway, after the nurse injected the water into the vial, she placed her index finger on the rubber part while shaking it.
Avatar f tn Zantac or the generic ranitidine, my Dr gave me the ok on Monday because everything I eat gives me bad heartburn
Avatar m tn So they dont use the whole Blood in the vial to perform a single test? They draw a portion and add the reactors, the accuracy is the same, is that correct?
