exelon

Avatar n tn Exelon patch is on back order from the manufacturer until October 24. What alternatives are there?
Avatar n tn My husband has been prescibed the the 9.5 exelon patch but we still have a supply of the 4.6 patches. With them being so expensive can I use two of the 4.6 patches at the same time until we run out?
Avatar n tn She has since tested negative for H Pylori, and has been taken off Razadyne(24 mg ) for memory problems, put on Exelon (6mg patch), then taken off it after two weeks and more nausea. She has been off the Exelon patch for 72 hours, and still experiences nausea when she moves about. Still puzzling and frustrating. doctors are stumped (still) and I am feeling worthless because I cannot help her kick the nausea or find the cause. Really looking for help here. Any will be gratefully accepted.

She has been off the Exelon patch for 72 hours, and still experiences nausea when she moves about. Recently, she started back on the lower dose of Razadyne. Her neurologist doesn't think the medicine is the cause of the nausea, though it could be aggrivating whatever is causing it.
Avatar f tn Mother had been experiencing dreams, nightmares really centering on the things she fears the most - abandoment, loss of control of her money, being pushed down the stairs, etc. These dreams were very real to her and she would then argue with her husband about why he said he wanted to do these things to her. He, of course, knew nothing of these "conversations and situations" she thought were so real.

Avatar f tn Then whatever they say something is going on and you need to seek more answers for him, ask for another opinion, ,as he has had a diagnosis of early Alzheimers maybe this is part of it, there is a new med coming up called Rember', it should help a lot of people Google it to get the latest information, it is on the 3rd year of Trials , hopefully be on the market in a couple and passed by the FDA ..
Avatar f tn For what it's worth, my doc had said she has a paraplegic patient who is in constant pain and he couldn't handle the oxycontin but the suboxone did work for his pain. There is a major opiate in the suboxone which I can't spell but starts with a B. There is also subutex which is the suboxone without the additive in it. I hope it goes well for you tomorrow and that you can get relief.

Avatar f tn That is wonderful news that the patch is working so well for you! Hope it stays that way!
Avatar f tn I used the birthcontrol patch orthero evera now iam having these symptoms, which have reduced since i have stopped using it.. Numbness in left upper arm, lumps that comes and go, confusion,dizziness, burning sensation on top of foot, cold sweats at night... I have not yet went to the doctor because i have no insurence and it's too expensive for me to go.
Avatar f tn Enough of the old patch was not removed and because of continued leaks I had to have a forth surgery for my head and he made sure to get out all of the synthetic patch and then used my tissue and sealed it really really well. My head only healed right once I had my own tissue. I did not know I had EDS or POTS before all of this and it was a 3+ year process with a lot of surgeries ( I also had shunt surgery to try and reduce spinal fluid pressure so that my patch could heal).
Avatar f tn this is known as off labeling...where a drug is intended for one purpose but used for another....in this case insomnia......
Avatar f tn I feel at such a loss in trying to help my Mother. I've gone back to Neurologist and am awaiting his advise, but he doesn't appear to be emphathetic to this issue. Her GP defers to the neurologist. My 81 yr old Mother in middle to late stage Alzheimer's. She is not on any anti-anxiety med except for Paxil which was prescribed about a month ago. She gets aggitated during the day at times and especially sundowners time.
Avatar f tn 24 hours later it was a red ring. I went out and bought OTC ringworm cream. I used it for two weeks. Within those two weeks the red ring got bigger and darker in color. I made an appointment, my doctor said it was ringworm and I was given ketoconazole cream. I was told to use it for 4 weeks and follow up. Within those 4 weeks I developed a red, scaly leasions on the R side of my neck.(it looks like a hickey, but it's not.).
Avatar m tn jpg/ The second picture, with the smaller patch is on my tummy and the first picture which is the biggest patch i have is just above my left gluteus and is the first patch i had.
1312494 tn?1273749561 I am unable to take morphine or morphine derivitives and I was not comfortable taking methadone as I know it is used for Heroin addicts. After some research which included talking to my visiting nurse and Walgreens Pharmacy (along with Google) I discovered that methadone was often prescribed for chronic pain. I went back to my doctor and explained that I was willing to try the methadone. She told me it was only used for drug addicts.
135222 tn?1210432488 I have a question about the patch for anyone out there who has used it. Is it possible to OD with the patch on while taking methadone? Let me re-phrase. With the depressive qualities of methadone combined with clonidine is it possible that your respiration and blood pressure could get dangerously low? I am starting to taper down but dont want to use the patch until I am feeling withdrawal symptoms. I am on 50mg a day and going down by 2.5mgs every two weeks.
Avatar f tn The problem is that every woman who has hormonally triggered headaches is different and what works for one may or may not work for another. So it is a matter of trial and error to find what works best. I also had a hysterectomy and oophorectomy. I haven't had headaches but have had a whole list of other problems. The patch was horrible for me, I believe because of the fluctuations / drop in estrogen on patch change days which was 2x per week.
Avatar f tn It first showed up when I was pregnant wother my second child I've had pityriasis rosea when I was a teen and that's what this looked like it started on my right brest as a big patch so I went to the doctor and asked to have a recommendation to see a dermatologist but she told me no I didn't need to see one and that it was a bacterial thing.
906738 tn?1251010478 I am having such a time keeping my patches on, I am on 50mg or whatever its considered...and breakthrough I take Norco 7.5. up to 3 pills a day. What can I replace the patch with? I go to the doctors Wednesday to go over this problem and want to be prepared knowing what I should ask for. Thanks for any help.
