Pilocarpine + Epinephrine

Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a hormone and medication[7][8] which is involved in regulating visceral functions (e.g., respiration).[7][9] Adrenaline is normally produced both by the adrenal glands and by a small number of neurons in the medulla oblongata. It plays an important role in the fight-or-flight response by increasing blood flow to muscles, output of the heart by acting on the SA node,[10] pu...

Pilocarpine

Pilocarpine is a medication used to reduce pressure inside the eye and treat dry mouth.[1][4] As eye drops it is used to manage angle closure glaucoma until surgery can be performed, ocular hypertension, primary open angle glaucoma, and to bring about constriction of the pupil following its dilation.[1][5][6] However, due to its side effects it is no longer typically used in the long term management.[7&...

how do you treat it? I know it's treatable with antibiotics and antacids like omeprazole, but it didn't work for me. ## Hello, Glenn! How are you? How do you know it didn't work? Have you actually been tested for it, again, or are you just still feeling symptoms? It is highly possible that the bacteria was eradicated and you just need a longer course of an antacid to let things heal. And do you watch what you eat, so you stay away from anything spicy or acidic? Do you avoid alcohol?

I've started the HP Pack but I took the first sachet over 3 days instead of taking it all the first day and then moved to the next sachet. After 3 days I realized the mistake. Now I am having abdominal pain & not sure what to do & the impact. Should I continue with the existing pack & buy a new one to complete the 7 days or should I start a new pack? ## Abdominal and stomach pain can be normal side effects of the medications included in these packs. As reported by the FDA, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache and diarrhea. As to whether or not you need to add more days, or start over, it would be best to check with your doctor to see what they feel you should do. You may not have gotten enough of a dose to fully eradicate the bacteria. Are you on any other...

I think I'm getting a pilonidal cyst ,does this work on this > ## Hello, Laney! How are you? Have you consulted your doctor? In many cases, such cysts require an antibiotic, because they may abscess and using the wrong product on it could just make it worse. Terrasil Max is an activated mineral ointment, so there's no guarantee that it will help and there's some risk, as I said, that it may make it worse by causing clogs of the pores in that area.

Since getting turned onto ambien I find short layovers now enjoyable since we can now actually sleep. But the debate we have is when to take the pill so it's effective as soon as we slam the hotel door. I find taking my pill on final approach (wheels down) the best time because that gives me about 30 minutes to the hotel when I will be at peak. Others say taxi to gate, or in the hotel van. When are you taking yours?

I have sjogrens and have extremely dry mouth. For the past 2years my doctor has had me drink pilocarpine opthalmic eye drops mixed with water. I has not worked at all. My teeth are starting to decay. I searched the net and found salagen. I went to another dr and got my 1st script of salagen today. Directions are 5mg 4 x day. I looked at some user reviews and some had terrible side effects. I also use biotene. I have to do something, I chock on my food and sometimes can't talk because my mouth is so dry. I know there is a newer drug but I don't have insurance. Any info would be extremely helpful. ## If I were to suggest anything that may be of help to you in the long run, it would be to detox your body and boost your immune system, by eating primarily fresh fruits and vegetables ...

I am trying to find out if Evoxac is available up here in canada. If not what other drugs can be taken for sjorgens besides pilocarpine. It is expensive and i am trying to find a cheaper drug for my mom to take as she has to pay for pilocarpine and it will be over 500 for one month. ## dry mouth causes (dehydration, diabetes, Sjogren's syndrome, medications for allergies and anxiety), symptoms ## Write the company that makes the prescription. Most have a plan that will ship you the meds for free. Or go to vocational rehab usually at the unemployment office and they should have all the forms and be able to help you with any and all medication.

I have been taking 2 mg daily of Teva clonazepam for a few years. I have been noticing that my memory (both short and long term) is increasingly more affected by the drug. Over the past year I have found myself being on "auto pilot" alot. My pharmacy just switched my prescription to the blue accord clonazepam arbitrarily. Is there any evidence supporting the accord brand being easier on "cognitive fog"? Also, due to this fog, I would like to taper off of benzos for good. Could you recommend a safe taper schedule for clonazepam? Thank you in advance. ## Hello, John! How are you? I'm sorry about the problems you're having. Long-term use of this medication can cause such memory issues, as reported by the FDA. It also carries the risk of being habit forming and could...

I have a pimple near my rectum that's painful. Will Betamox treat it? ## Hello, Talent! How are you? The U.S. FDA classifies this medication as an antibiotic, so it is only effective at treating or preventing bacterial infections.
