Avatar f tn I suppose addicts give most of the drugs their 'street names.'When we're in the throws of addiction our brains are in such a fog it's no wonder there are some CRAZY labels being assigned.I can remember being at a picnic once and a friend of mines brother telling some guy how he had some really good 'fish gills' and the guy asked him how much?I'm thinking to myself WTF why would someone want to buy fish gills?
Avatar n tn Hello, Sun spots or lentigines, are harmless, flat, brown discolorations of the skin which usually occur on the back of the hands, neck and face of people older than 40 years of age. They are caused by the skin being exposed to the sun over many years and are a sigh of sun damage. The only way to prevent age spots is to use liberal amounts of sunscreen before the age of forty, avoid the sun, and wear protective clothing.
Avatar m tn I’m aware of the very extensive number of drugs that exist and that are continuing to be created. So I’m after some general rules with regard to weaning someone off of drugs. Some guidelines to go off of, if possible.
1004216 tn?1275109053 Well, there are all types of pan and all type of pain killers and procedures to to reduce pain. A pain specialist is the gate keeper. She makes sure that you are not over medicated or under medicated. She decides which procedures would be of benefit and which would not. She decides which drugs and how much. And someone must prescribe them. I hope you're not considering using street drugs! Very illegal and very dangerous.
Avatar m tn If all brain related causes (transient ischemic attack, disorders of hypothalamus, dementia and multiple sclerosis, head injury etc) are ruled out then Vit B12 deficiency, chronic fatigue syndrome, sleep disorders (by sleep studies), depression, use of certain drugs, and certain types of seizures (where memory loss is the predominant symptom) should be investigated for as the cause of memory loss.
16785591 tn?1451596681 Tuckamore has provided excellent advice. That being said, the protocols for prescribing so-called "schedule one" drugs have become a nightmare on Elm street. This is because of an irrational populist politically motivated campaign to "reduce drug deaths". This includes the fact that starting this year prescriptions on these drugs have to be reported electronically. Filling out the "authorization" takes time on the part of the physician.
Avatar m tn No one can do it on their own and i have a lot of other worries on top of my addiction, as Avis said i also have a husband struggling with addiction. We will always be addicts but keeping our clean time is most important to us all. I will get in touch with these places asap to see if they do na ( i pray they do). But i will let you know how i get on as James has his counselor too. Thank you to you all and Avis you are a Gem.
Avatar f tn No wonder we will not see the end of the war on drugs, if we did, the prison population would quickly be vastly reduced and it would have a big impact on wall street.
Avatar f tn I recently took a poll asking what type of MS I had. I expected it to show the four typical types of MS, RRMS, PPMS, SPMS and PRMS, instead it showed this: What type of multiple sclerosis do you have? Benign MS Relapsing-Remitting MS (RRMS) Primary-Progressive MS (PPMS) Secondary-Progressive MS (SPMS) Progressive-Relapsing MS (PRMS) Optic-spinal MS Devic's disease Balo concentric sclerosis, Marburg or acute multiple sclerosis Other please state: Don't know: Holy moly!
Avatar m tn 5 and tenofovir 300 marketed by Zydus Cadilla in the names of Entehep 0.5 and Tenohep 300.My question is that are these generics equally potent as their branded counterparts i.e. Baraclude and Viread.?I heard that the colour of Viread is blue whereas the generic version Tenohep which i use is white....are they same or something is different?Due to monetary constraints most of us can't afford to go for the branded versions.....
Avatar f tn Hey Suzy. Welcome to the forum. Oxycodone @ 10mg injected will produce the SAME results as morphine for most people. I'm mentioning this to point out that these types of drugs are opioid drugs, potentially habit forming narcotic drugs. The fact that they are prescribed legally, does not make them any less dangerous than street drugs, other than the fact that their "quality" and strength are consistent with what they claim.
Avatar n tn Thank you for responding. At this moment, this is the only thing keeping me from pacing around my apartment or looking out the window. He is addicted to all types of drugs, both prescription and street, don't have the strength to say the actual street names for these drugs... the worst drugs you can be addicted to, he is. As far as I know he was just in his program Friday. So, I just didn't see this coming , at all.
Avatar n tn I've taken the same types of meds, just under different names. I have my pharmacy (Walgreens) alert me if there is ever any evidence of drug interactions. Then they can discuss this with me and/or with my doctor.
29837 tn?1414534648 Likewise, to keep its balance, your body needs proper amounts and types of nutrition, rest, movement, fresh air, and warmth. Too much of anything (including food, exercise, and heat) and the wrong types of things (such as polluted air, junk food, and dangerous drugs) also cause stress. If a physical stress is short term, like missing some sleep on exam night or having an occasional ice cream, the body can usually recover.

Avatar f tn I did some checking for you and uncovered this: (quote) "Risperidone can help some people with dementia who have symptoms such as aggression and agitation (getting upset easily). But elderly people who take this drug for dementia have an increased risk of having a stroke. Risperidone is no longer considered a safe treatment for elderly people. What is it? Risperidone is an antipsychotic drug. It is normally used to treat people with serious mental health problems like schizophrenia.
Avatar m tn t realize there were 5 types of Bipolar in the DSM-V now and you mention 3 different names of episodes between the depression and mania polar. Could you be more specific? You seem very knowledgeable.
Avatar n tn If they do a serum testing, they can differentiate between Lortab and Vicoden because of the amount of hydrocodone and the filler ingredients by the levels in your blood, but in a urine test, they can not, unless they do a gas chromotography. The GC breaks it down by the metabolites left in your body and the amounts of each chemical. If you don't have a valid prescription for either drug, and you are taking both, you will get caught if they use GC testing.
Avatar m tn your dose is small you could taper off in a few months and get out of the mess your in now....I know it was one of the best decisions I ever made...mixing methadone with other narcotics is dangerous and is no way to go thew life..I hope this give you some insight that it dosent have to be this way...good luck on whatever you decide .
Avatar f tn I understand your concern but you have to look pass your friend at this point and think of the well being of the baby. If she wasnt able to control it while pregnant then theres no saying what will happen aftee. And if the hospital and DCF feel like that environment isnt safe for the baby they will do something about it or at least i hope they will.
1679320 tn?1306382914 Some people are genetically predisposed to anxiety and suffer for most of their lives, sometimes a traumatic experience can cause anxiety, sometimes life stresses become overwhelming and an anxiety disorder results. In your case, the feeling you experienced when you did a drug triggered anxiety, and you ended up stuck in the anxiety cycle, which, btw...is pretty common.
494976 tn?1302710701 I know there are sometimes first symptoms you can have which may indicate what type of MS you are going to have. Like for example sensory symptoms being a sign of a less severe form of MS and weakness being an indicator of maybe a worse form. Though obviously there are always exceptions.
Avatar m tn My simplistic way of thinking of some of these types of TX is that these various types of treatments are like nets that let some by and catch others. Basically, one net by itself lets a lot by but when they are all combined they may catch about everything. That is what is happening now. We geno 1's are going from a 45% SVR rate to a 75-80% cure rate when they add TVR or Boceprevir. OK, say that means that 20% may sneak by......
