Discontinuing Unicontin-e Tablet
UpdatedMy wife aged 63 is type 2 diabetic. 20 days ago she was admitted to the hospital with pneumonia and her blood sugar quite high e.g. 348. On further investigations it was found that she has H1N1 too. She was sent to ICU in isolation and treatment for pneumonia and swine flu along with diabetic treatment started. She was on oxygen. She was quite critical. Fortunately she didn't go on a ventilator. After 10 days in ICU she was shifted to ward. After three days she was discharged. Her sugar was in control and her lungs were clear. Medicines prescribed were Tredjenta, Livoflox and Unicontin e 400 (1/2 tablet in the morning and half at night) for 5 days. She is very weak and unable to eat much and whatever she eats she practically vomits. Should I discontinue Tredjenta and Unicontin or continue with these two?Livoflox is antibiotic and is to be discontinued after five days are over. If I discontinue Unicontin will it cause any problem?
