Is it recommended to take NORVASC and Prinival Both ## What has your doctor advised? When it comes to treating hypertension and/or cardiac conditions, the severity of the condition(s) plays a large factor in what medication is used, or if a combination of several medications is needed. Norvasc contains the active ingredient Amlodipine, which is a calcium channel blocker and Prinivil contains the active ingredient Lisinopril, which is an ACE inhibitor, so while they treat the same conditions, they do work in different ways.

stress medication ## Have you checked out any natural alternatives to relieve stress? I personally found Bergamot and Lavander essential oils to relieve even the worst cases of stress conditions. There are other options out there, but I would just suggest essential oils to anyone because they don't have negative side effects. The side effects they do have are to only aid your body. Feel free to post back if you need help finding any information on certain ones.

Just heard of new medication now available in R.S.A. to treat COLS. The name contains the word "bez" ## Do you know what "COLS" stands for? I was going to take the approach of looking up the type of medications that help that specific condition in order to at least narrow down what type of medication "bez" could be. If you or anyone else has more information on COLS please do post back. Thanks! ## COLS stands for Chronic Obstructive Lung Sickness, also known as Emphysemia

"Purdue Pharma recently announced it is conducting clinical trials on OxyContin in children. Immediately some have criticized, suggesting that the exposure to opioids at an early age will inevitably lead to addiction later in life. The larger issue that was missed is that there are times opioids are necessary for children. Children in intensive care units, emergency rooms, post operatively or in rehab often require strong analgesics. These are children with cancer, with severe burns, with sickle cell anemia or other conditions. It would be cruel and inhumane to leave children untreated who experience extraordinary amounts of pain. Of course opioids should not be the first line of therapy if an alternative is available, but they may be the only way to provide relief. So the question ...

5 years ago my father had a double bypass and was prescribed Felodipine, Atenolol, and Clopidogrel. He is still taking them and now has signs of low blood pressure and orthostatic hypotension. He has confusion, dizzy spells, shakes, and has fallen several times now. is the 3 prescribed medications a common combination and/or can it be the cause of his recent episodes? ## Yes, prescribing several to get better control of blood pressure and to stabilize cardiac conditions is completely normal. However, our bodies do change with time, so what worked well for years may suddenly start causing problems. The Clopidogrel is used to prevent clotting, not to control blood pressure. Learn more Clopidogrel details here. So that means that if his BP is going too low, the likely cuplrits would be the...

Very interested if others out there have had problems with KVK Tech Inc. manufactured pain medications. I and several others I know, suffer with various chronic pain conditions. The pain medications prescribed by my doctor were effective and made my life tolerable and some days I was able to actually "function". Last year I started having a problem with my pain medication not relieving the pain. Then I started having other side effects. I asked the other chronic pain friends, and they were also having problems with their medication being effective. It took a little while and a lot of very slow logic on our parts, to put it together that the months that we were suffering and having side effects were the months that we were being sold KVK Tech Inc. products. I discussed this with ...
