Been diagnosed with Globus and prescribed Levbid. Can I take it if I have a history if Wolff Parkinson White disease? ## Hi tammy, From what I've researched, Parkinson's does not appear to be listed as a contraindication in patients taking Levbid (Hyoscyamine). However for your own reference, I'd recommend taking a look at the contraindications mentioned in the .gov link below just in case there are any other possible discrepancies that need to be pointed out: dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=9899c4b5-e520-41f3-9dbf-e7da12924dd8 On the other hand, I don't think a doctor would even prescribe something to you that you shouldn't be taking due to another type of medical condition or risk factor.

If I'm allergic to sulfa can I take lomotil? I had a reaction to the sulfa salt in Levbid. My sulfa allergy is bad enough that I have to watch what vegetables I eat. I'm also allergic to latex, eggs, cleocin, flagyl. I'm not sure which sulfate I'm allergic to. Also am hypersensitive to sulfides and can't drink wine. I don't attempt beer because I have celiacs. Just thought if I provided all my allergies, you might see a common thread. My allergies are bad enough I have an epi pen ## Hi Angela, Based on my research, Lomotil does contain a sulfa-based active ingredient (atropine sulfate)... So I'd say it is something to stay away from if you have a sulfa allergy. I also wasn't aware that there were so many types of sulfa/sulfur/sulfate allergies? But an art...

My mother's nursing home says they can no longer give my mother this drug because it is no longer being made. Is this true? Two days without the drug and she starts throwing up from too much saliva in her stomach. She is 89 and will die without it. Is there another equivalant drug avaliable?? Please tell me where to turn.
