Avatar n tn My 6 year old grandaughter often has to take Xopenex HFA for asthma related issues. It makes her extremely irritable, she has a bad temper and in general is very mooddy? Is this a side affect?

1763947 tn?1334055319 When I went to refill my inhalers the pharmacist said I was taking two inhalers that have steroids in them and that most all people take only 1 of those. I am taking Symbacort,, Asmanex twisthaler and xopenex HFA as a rescue. I am moving soon to FL and have only been in Texas for 10 months. I will see a pulmanary doc when I get to FL but meanwhile has anyone been told this about steroids and or have any suggestions? I see my PCP tomorrow hopefully for the last time before I leave.
Avatar n tn I take it you are talking about the xopenex ampules and not the xopenex spray? If its the spray then there might be something that can be given to him that is not as strong. Hope this helps.
Avatar m tn A couple of weeks later, I was contacted by the county health department and offered to begin a 6-month regimen of INH antibiotic. I began my INH course on 12/29/2010 and completed it on 06/02/2011 -- 6 months in total with a little card from the health department certifying my compliance. My concern is that yesterday, I was coming home from vacation when a homeless-looking man (a smoker) coughed right in the direction of my friend and I. It was pretty disgusting, to say the least.
Avatar m tn Because of the higher affinity of the autoantibody for native C1-INH, the 95-kd antibody/C1-INH complex dissociates, and the freed antibody can bind to another native C1-INH molecule, allowing for the further depletion of C1-INH." Can HIV sero conversion effect this? Or is that only after an HIV+ person has reached AIDS status?
Avatar n tn Talk to your doctor. It might just be from your clothing, but hard to say.
Avatar n tn ve lived in the same town my whole life and no change in living conditions. My doctor prescribed me Pro Air HFA. Immediately I was using it more than the recommended amounts. It makes me very jittery and makes my hands shake. When I came in I was told to keep using it and then prescribed Qvar. The Qvar gave me debilitating headaches. I've since stopped taking both but the headaches and shaking still continue.
Avatar n tn Yours was a violent reaction to isoniazid (INH). Indeed you should not take INH again, but there are alternatives. Glad you survived this severe drug reaction. Before you and your doctor resort to an alternative, you must be sure that there is no evidence of active tuberculosis, as that would determine the optimum therapeutic regimen.
378225 tn?1201730140 Someone I know has been taking INH meds for 9 months. How long after taking INH medication can they begin drinking alcohol?
429700 tn?1308007823 Have you had any trouble with your liver enzymes being elevated while on Gilenya? It's looking more and more like I'll be starting this medicine. My doctor put me on INH as a prophylaxis to prevent TB due to history of past infection (latent TB). I noticed that a potential side effect of INH is liver problems. My GP will be monitoring me on this medicine (INH). I have to go back in three months to get tested for liver problems.
Avatar n tn There is no direct connection between pulmonary emboli and tuberculosis (TB), including skin test conversion. Yes, the prophylactic administration of isoniazid (INH) for a TB chest conversion may cause inflammation of the liver, but does so in a minority of individuals taking the medicine. However, there is also the risk of liver inflammation due to the medicine Crestor® (rosuvastatin) and it is conceivable that there could be an additive effect of Crestor® (rosuvastatin) and INH.
Avatar f tn It was discovered I was exposed to the TB germ when I was a kid. I was given INH treatment for 6 months. I am 36 years old now and have had no problems. I still test postive and scar tissue is noted on my chest x ray but so far so good. I think the best person to answer your questions would be your sons pediatrician.
Avatar n tn Hi, fast heart rate is due to Xopenex. Initially, use of this drug is associated with this side effect but over a period of time, tolerance usually develops. In case if you have a pre exisiting heart disease, please avoid this drug. Consult you treating doctor to lower the dose or frequency, other alternative is sustained release deriphylline tablets.
Avatar f tn Either way though, with your reactions after exercise, it sounds like a fast acting broncho dilater (some form of albuterol - Proventil, Porair, Maxair, Xopenex, Ventolin) might be a good idea. These medications can be used as a pretreatment for exercise eliminating the reaction and allowing for a better workout. I hope that helps you. Good luck obtaining an accurate diagnosis and the medication that is best for you.
920032 tn?1550680156 I don very well with the HFA versions. If you were on a dry powder, you might have been having problems with the milk by products in them keeping your peak flow down. My guess would be that your current phlegm problem is from the inflammation and asthma even though your peak flows are improving. If you aren't working with your dr to reduce your steroid use, you should really see your asthma doctor to make sure that your asthma is not flaring.
Avatar n tn The only problem is that I am also on antibiotics- isoniazid, or INH, which is supposed to decrease the effectiveness of a birth control pill. I am not sure about its effects on Plan B, however. My period started on January 25th and ended around February 1st. What are the chances that I could be pregnant? Please help.
Avatar n tn You are correct in wanting to wait until you have achieved optimum benefit from the Advair® HFA (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) Inhalation Aerosol, before any consideration of oxygen use. The Advair® HFA (fluticasone propionate and salmeterol) Inhalation Aerosol may raise your saturation, to a degree that will make oxygen use unnecessary.

Avatar f tn I saw this article today about the HIV drugs causing a heart risk. Does the same thing apply to the HCV drug combo's, i.e. Ribavirin + a Protease Inh....., or Ribavirin + a Polymerase Inh. ?? I'd be interested to know. The reason being that if you were to know that you have more of a heart risk factor than the average person, because of these drugs, wouldn't your doctor be more watchful and prepared for it in the event of a heart arrythmia problem?
Avatar f tn Vosevi contains sofosbuvir (which I had in the Sovaldi/Peg/Riba treatment on my last TX about 2-3 yrs ago), a Prot. Inh and a Poly Inh I will actually had the meds in hand next week, but am waiting until after Thanksgiving to start it. I have to meet with my GI (who is following me local) and sign a form, before I actually start the regimen.
