Pls provide the actual use of the Sulperazone ## I'm overseas & my husband came down with pneumonia after long term intubation (he had a stroke) they were giving him Sulperazone for 14 days & then stopped. He still has bloody lung secretions. They believe that Sulperazone causes kidney damage. They will start it again if he develops a fever. Is there a better medicine & do you think he is getting the right care??

Can these pink pills with print k | 56 be taken via injection? ## The effectiveness of any medication can vary from person to person whether their an addict or not. It is really not safe to try to break down any medication and inject it, which isn't intended to be used that way. Tablets contain fillers and not all of them are meant to be broken down by the human body, normally they are just expelled in your waste. When you break down the tablet and inject it, you are putting these fillers into your body in a manner in which it cannot process them out. This creates the risk of blockages, which could result in stroke or embolism. If you haven't done so already, I definitely would consider seeking help so you can get off of these dangerous drugs. I know this may not be what you wan...

I have been on aggrenox for about eight months. I have a lot of muscle and joint pain and suffer from chronic fatigue. (thigh/ hip/ pelvic) I am wondering if anyone else has experienced these symtoms? ## I have severe neck and back/sholder pain with the 50 mg pill and the dr.s act like i am stupid as if they have never heard of this. I do have fibromyalgia and thought that might have some to do with it. Can you get anyone to listen? ## I was put on aggrenox following a TIA and shortly afterward suffered a severe headache that radiated down my neck and across my shoulders. I stopped taking it and am now on plavix which is much better. However, even 2 days after last taking aggrenox, I still suffer from neck and shoulder pain, particularly when under even minor stress. ## My Dad starting ...

Hellllloooo, my legs and my hands become stiff when I hang or do not position them well. And I learnt that, this can lead to stroke. How can mecobalamin help me. ## Hello, Extrovert! How are you? No, such a thing will not lead to a stroke. Everyone gets stiffness and cramping, now and then and, while it can be uncomfortable, it isn't dangerous. Methylcobalamin is classified by the FDA as a B vitamin supplement, so while it is good for you and your body needs some of it each day, it doesn't actually treat or prevent muscle cramping, stiffness or stroke. Have you consulted a doctor?

Will somazina eventually stop the hallucinations? ## Somazina contains Citicoline, a substance believed to help with energy and cognitive problems.

I've been on Aggrenox for 10 months and I'm severely anemic and getting iron infusions! I believe the aspirin in it causes bleeding. I cant take Plavix, so I don't know what they're going to put me on. I have muscle and joint problems too. ## What do you take it for? Specifically to prevent stroke, or just as a blood thinner? If it is just as a blood thinner, there may be other options, such as Warfarin. ## I take it to prevent a stroke, had one in Jan 2010, and while on plavix had a tia in July 2011, then Dec 2011 had a stroke to my optic nerve in my right eye! I do not want to be on a blood thinner, had my 4th infusion yesterday and got 5 more to go! Aggrenox makes my muscles weak, there has to be something else that doesn't make you anemic? scared to go off of cau...

Just wanted to give others a "heads up" in case you see major changes in your loved ones. I just got back from a scare with my mother. About two weeks ago, I started receiving phone calls from relatives regarding my mother's health. They were concerned because she seemed frail, disoriented and just "not herself". I had noticed when we spoke on the phone, that she seemed to be slurring her words, being confused and forgetful and complained of being constantly tired. My brother had visited her on Labor Day and had not noticed anything unusual, so in just a few short weeks, she had really taken a turn for the worse. On Tuesday, I received a call, and my mother was in the Emergency Room, as her doctor feared that she had had a small stroke. I quickly drove 4 hours to be ...

does the tablet and capsule have the same release? how about its comparison with zynapse or somazine? how about its effect? just making sure with the drugs lately who compromises the quality just to make it cheaper. ## They all the same, all the medications you mentioned contain Citicoline as the active ingredient.

Where can I find this medication Zynapse? It is for my dad who had a stroke. Philippines have it but he is here with me in Carson, Ca USA. ## Hello, Marie! How are you?
