Avatar f tn I am in need of finding a better treatment for all this nausea (side effect of the triple treatment for my Hep C) and was wondering if any of you have tried the Transderm-Scop patches that you wear for 72 hours. Have tried Zofran and all it gave me was enormous headaches, now using the Phenegran but needed it every 4 hours like clockwork.....ANY opinions and information will be greatly appreciated.
Avatar n tn I have tried antivert, valium, and the Transderm Scop patch to treat it. The patch helped for a while, but in the past few days seems to have stopped working. Also in the last few days I have had upset stomach, gas, and mild diarrhea. I have been drinking pedialite and gatorade to treat dehydration if that's what it is/prevent dehydration. I am completely at my wits end - I can't work or drive or function or do anything but lie down and not move my head or focus on anything.
617846 tn?1231553233 I suffer from profound episodes of vertigo, so the doctor has prescribed me a 1.5 mg transderm patch. I only use it when the vertigo is extremely severe. My problem is this: When I apply the patch, (behind the ear, either right or left) I immmediately experience extreme anisocoria in whichever eye is nearer the patch. While I am curious about this, mostly because it is not listed under side/adverse effects,it is not my priority concern.

Avatar n tn My wife has had the same symptoms as you after using the Transderm-Scop patch on a 7 day cruise that ended Jan. 20. The symptoms started just over 24 hours after she took the patch off. The first week was Hell; she couldn't even stand up straight because of the dizziness, the nausea was terrible, her vision was so blurred she couldn't see plus she had the worst headache of her life.
Avatar n tn long-term used has caused medical problems (tachycardia, gastroparesis, blurred vision, SOB,pupil dialation, really bad memory,etc. Two attempts to withdraw landed me in a er. I am now going into the hospital to withdraw as a medical admit. I contacted a professor who did long-term scop use and he said no one has ever been on it as along as me. he anticipates a very long road.
Avatar f tn He sent me for a hearing test, which was normal. Then he took me off Antivert and had me try transderm-scop patches but I had an allergic reaction to it. So now I'm on Valium and Compazine. I would say those medications help about 50% of the way. I don't feel as dizzy, but if I'm up and about too long I eventually need to lay down. The nausea is mostly gone as long as I keep with the compazine.
Avatar f tn Has anyone that has gastricparesis tried Zelnorm? It was working for me and than they took it off the market. My doctor just suggested a drug from Canada named domperidone. Does anyone have any experience with this drug. I tried Reglan and couldn't handle the side affects. Erithamyacin made me break out in a rash. Right now I depend on Zofran for the throwing up and sometimes it doesn't help.
Avatar f tn I've actually been wondering for quite a while if thyroid meds could be delivered via "transderm patch", like they do with motion sickness meds, birth control hormones, etc. Yes, they would be especially great for delivering a continuous dose of T3, but they would have their uses for T4 also. For one, they would bypass the gut and all the interections with food and problems with absorbtion. I actually emailed the question to Abbott a while back.
1903798 tn?1333905288 I was really sick to my stomach the morning I was to fly home so I asked for NS to call in a sticker and I have been fine since (3 days now). I am just wondering if those with nausea problems have tried transderm scopolamine 1.5 mg dis. I think I am going to talk to my PCP about it tomorrow it says it is a anticholinergic agent used for preventing nausea and vomiting associted with motion sickness and recovery from anesthesia and surgery.
Avatar n tn 25mg pills they will have to step you down slowly or risk seizure a good phyic doctor can do this for you this will take some time even if its just 1 bar mabe a mo but longer if it is muti bars a day leve this one to the professionals this is beyond the scop of a home detox good luck and God bless......
Avatar m tn 7 mm is a huge pupil and very few people have that big of pupil even in pitch dark, this is especially true as we age. Biggest pupils are found in teenagers. pupils are very small in infants and in the very old. Pupil size is more imporant in lasik than cataract surgery. Worse case is that alphagan P can be used at night to keep the pupil from getting fully dilated.
20923866 tn?1668021361 Since it has now been over 3 weeks since I stopped the Atropine with no visible sign of any pupil contraction (operated eye pupil always stuck at 5 mm diameter while good pupil is typically at 2.5 mm), I called my doctor. His nurse responded, telling me that he said that it can take 3-6 months for the pupil to return to normal. Is this even feasible and would not such a time frame typically signify permanent damage to the pupil? Kindly advise. Thank you doctor.
Avatar f tn So Symbicort can cause pupillary abnormalities? Is it specifically known to cause tadpole pupil, tonic pupil or pupil movement? Or all of what I am experiencing? Do you know any more about this or the mechanism by which Symbicort causes that side effect? Thanks so much!
Avatar m tn The fact that the difference is greater in dim light suggests that one pupil might have difficulty dilating normal so it is possible that the smaller pupil is the abnormal one. Of course this is not definite - just a suggestion. Look for associated ptosis (droopy eyelid) and or a crossed or misaligned eye which could suggest a cranial nerve palsy. A third nerve palsy could cause a dilated pupil, ptosis and an eye that has difficulty looking up, in or down.
Avatar f tn There is confusion over why my FULL blown pupil Mydriasis will not quiver or move/constrict. We know it is a Sphincter muscle rupture from a blunt force orbital hit to one eye! IiF MY PUPIL WAS NOT FULLY DILATED COULD IT THEN QUIVER OR CONSTRICT SOME?
Avatar n tn was wondering does any one no why 7months after my concussion why i feel as though my right eye (pupil) is not closing enough i feel like the light is stopping my from seeing and is giving me headaches? does anyone no what could be happining?
Avatar m tn Atropine, Cyclogyl, cyclopentalate, mydriacyl, etc block the action of one muscle group, causing mid pupil dilation. Neosynephrine acts on another muscle group to dilate the pupil past mid dilation. Dr. O.
Avatar n tn It's a little unusual to have the pupil smaller since the pupil is widely dilated for surgery. It's still early and the normal inflammation after surgery could be irritating the iris making the pupil small. Ask your surgeon.
Avatar m tn I was diagnosed with Adie's pupil 5 years ago (at age 17) and since then the pupil seemed to have resolved until just recently. My pupil has started to dilate again and this is usually accompanied by piercing headaches. Wondering if this is normal and if the pupil will continue to resolve? Are there any special contacts to make your pupils look normal? Someone mentioned "blockers" to me...? I'm afraid that people will think I do drugs if I continue to have a dilated pupil.
Avatar f tn He is 9 yrs old and is autistic. He has excessive drooling, we have tried ot, his diet. reminders to swallow, transderm patches, ect....... I am now looking into surgery to cauterize the glands and I was also informed there are botox shots that nay help, It does not bother me, but its starting to effect him, and his teachers are pushing me to have something done, becuuae i think it just annoys them, that they have to change his Bandanna he wears around his neck to catch the drool.
Avatar f tn My husband had laser surgery for a partially detached retina about 10 weeks ago. His pupil has remained dilated since then. He is following up closely with a retina specialist but I am frustrated because the doctor just says "I don't know" in response to our questions about whether the pupil will heal. Last week my husband had a sneezing fit and his pupil slowly constricted right after the sneezing fit.
Avatar m tn 1. Damage to the pupil with RD surgery is most always unavoidable. 2. If the pupil is made smaller with a pursestring type suture then it will not dilates and is always small making the retina hard to check the retina. 3. Sometimes a drop (pilocarpine) can be used to make the pupil small.
6774380 tn?1384673029 Down the line when all signs of inflammation have cleared and no further treatment is needed you can discuss a contact lens that has a iris and small pupil on it to cover the bigger pupil. Surgery to make the pupil smaller is generally not indicated until the pupil is huge and the debility from light (photophobia) severe. Even then it make the pupil smaller but it does not move, get bigger and smaller like a normal pupil.
Avatar n tn By the way the scientific term for difference in pupil size is anisocoria - and one last thing - sometimes the smaller pupil is the abnormal one.
Avatar n tn The dilation drops even if used for weeks to months will not permanently damage a pupil. The pupil is not infrequently damaged unavoidably during RD surgery due to diathermy, cryopexy, buckle placment and stitches to hold the buckle in place. The pupil usually has to be dilated for weeks on end after RD surgery to control inflammation in the eye. Because of this it cannot be checked. Use the search feature this has been discussed before.
496495 tn?1224609863 The hook did not penitrate but the force of the hit caused major pain and a small bleed with swelling. My pupil instantly became dilated and my vision was blurred and the pupil did not resume normal size. I went to the eye doctor and he checked everything out. He said that there was a small bleed that can only be seen through his scope and significant bruising and he put me on atropine and dilating drops.
Avatar n tn I'm sorry but I don't have a lot to add. It is possible she could have an Adie's pupil in the eye with the larger pupil or perhaps horner's syndrome in the eye with the smaller pupil. Very rarely, other neurologic problems are to blame and sometimes is just a natural or physiologic difference that is not harmful. Sometimes it is not always initially evident which pupil is the abnormal one - the larger or smaller. The neuro-ophthalmologist should be a big help.
