i am 17 yrs old my right ovary exhibits a single well defined cystic lesion 2.2×1.9cm with reticular echoes wihin it favours haemorrhagic cyst my doctor suggested me to take TRAPIC MF is it right to take it ## Hi Ragini, Sorry to hear about your situation. That sounds like it's probably pretty painful. From what I've researched, Tranexamic Acid (Trapic MF) is marketed for its use in treating and preventing 'bleeding problems'. So if your cyst is haemorrhagic (one that is bleeding) then it would make sense to me why your doctor prescribed this medication. You should be able to trust your doctor, that what he/she prescribed is appropriate for the said condition. That's what their job is as a doctor, to suggest and/or provide you with proper treatment after a diagn...

anxiety. round pill small ## Sorry, nothing is listed under that name, could you please double check the spelling? Is is possibly Ativan? ## Pharmacology of Drug ATIPAM GENERIC-Lorazepam Mechanism of Action Lorazepam mainly acts on Limbic system and ascending reticular formation in the CNS and it binds to the BZD receptor. The binding will facilitates GABA mediated chloride channel opening and produce hyperpolarisation. This will produce an increase in the concentration of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA and chloride ions and decreases firing rate of neurons. These alter normal excitatory functions of the body. Lorazepam is used as adjuncts in anaesthesia for anxiolysis, amnesia and sedation prior to induction of anaesthesia Pharmaco Kinetics Absorption: It is well absorbed after o...

I am a 63 year old woman. COPD [51% lung capacity] I have recently increased my intake of Amloc from 5mg's to 10mg's. Since then I my feet and ankles have started to swell to such an extent that it feels as though my skin is going to burst. Should I be taking duiretics? ## I have been taking Amloc 20mg for 8 months, now my feet and ankles are swollen. Can I use ADCO RETIC together with Amloc 20mg to help with the water retention in my feet?

I have a terrible problem of retaining fluid during the day where to the point I can gain 5 kg as I only urinate once or twice after consuming at least 2 1/2 litre of water per day. My doctor prescribed me spiractin and frusemide at different times, he didnt tell me to take them concurrently, so I was wondering if it I could take these both during the day for the duiretic needs to stop from gaining so much fluid weight during the day without causing any side effects. My potassium levels are fine but my kidneys have slowed a bit owing to age. As I have lost a total weight of 80kg over the past two years and have worked hard to maintain it, I am a bit reticent to stop taking these tablets as I do not want to gain any of the weight I have lost. I attended a vascular surgeon to see if an op...

Need a DR in the Dunn, North Carolina area to prescribe QSYMIA. BCBS insured, meet all BMI requirements. My family physician will not prescribe diet meds. ## The only thing you can really do is set up an appointment with a new doctor and see if they will prescribe it for you. Usually if you call them and ask over the phone, they are reticent to say whether they will, or will not prescribe anything, because they are afraid they might be dealing with a drug seeker. I know that's not what you're doing, I am just letting you know about the reaction you might get, if you ask for a specific medication, and aren't a current patient. You can, however, ask if they accept your insurance. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, loss of appetite, ...

what is it? - cytochrome pathway cp-450; etc ## Hello, David! How are you? They are a superfamily of proteins which contain a heme cofactor, so they are hemoproteins. They use various large and small molecules in substrates of enzymatic reactions. Human CYPs are primarily membrane associated proteins that are located in the inner membrane of mitochondria or in the endoplasmic reticulum. They are the major enzymes involved in drug metabolism, they actually account for about 75% of it. Most drugs undergo deactivation from CYPs, either directly or through excretion from the body. Some drugs can increase or decrease their activity. This could cause you not to absorb enough of any given medication or to absorb too much of it. A good example to use is the antiseizure medication Phenytoin, sin...

I used to have medical aid and was prescribed Co-Diovan 80 plus Twynsta 40mg. But then I got retrenched and had to receive other medication since the State does not keep these kind of medication. The State gives medication free of charge. I was prescribed a list of medication back since none were effective - my BP remained high. Most recently I got Atenolol 50mg plus Perindopril 4 plus Adco-Retic 2.5mg for water retention. My blood pressure remained non-consistent so I decided to rather go back to the Co-Diovan/Twynsta combination again. I must say that these medications are really expensive but since it is my health, I purchased them out of my own pocket. I have been using the Co-Diovan combination for the past 3 days but have noticed that my blood pressure ranges between 167/93 to 149...

I am a chronic pain patient who suffers from many ailments and symptoms. I require a dr. in the Honolulu area who will prescribe 30 mg Oxycodone to manage my pain and allow me to go back to work. Please, please help me find a physician willing to help. Pain Management is not prescribing effective medication here. ## There is no way to guarantee that any given doctor will prescribe any specific medication. If you go in asking for a specific medication, in a specific dosage, they may assume that you are drug seeking, and that could make them reticent to prescribe anything. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.
