Question:
Singulair is known to curb/assist in eczema and uticaria.
Would you provide me a source for this comment. I have eczema on my hands and used Singulair until recently. I’ll have to go back and check the dates but the flare of eczema may coincide with my discontinuing the Singulair.
Response:
Singulair is effective in patients who have an atopic component to their asthma. This atopy is more in align with the upper airways (rhinitis etc.) than a skin allergy, however, Singulair is known to curb/assist in eczema and uticaria. When comparing the two different anti-leukotreiens, as noted on the package inserts of Accolate, it is twice a day dosage, has limited safety profile of between 12 and 65yrs, there exists food and drug interactions, may not be taken one hour before food or before two hours after food as food affects the bioavailabilty of the drug, interacts with warfarin, aspirin, theophylline, terfinadine and erethomicine. Singulair on the other hand is a once a day dosage, no food or drug interactions and a safety profile from 2yrs of age. The drug is currently being trialed in 6month old babies to two year old kids. Singulair has addressed my post-nasal drip, used to take Flixonase. You might find that your allergy is caused by something that your currentmeds do not address, but if I was you, I would try the Singulair, drop the Accolate. My opinion remains my own from personal experience. Good luck. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – I have some Singulair at the house and have been thinking of taking that instead of Accolate but I doubt that would work. You don’t know until you try it, but has this been prescribed by your doctor? You would be wise to do things in concert with him/her. I’m also assuming your doctor is an allergist. If not, get an allergist fast. You are also taking a lot of asthma medicine and you have a lot of "rhinitis" type symptoms (post-nasal drip, etc.). Sounds like you want to address those, too (the asthma meds won’t do that, although Singulair might, but that’s another topic). You might want to consider allergy shots, if your allergist determines that indeed you have allergy problems. They take a long time to build up, but if they work, they are great because you become "immune" to some degree to your allergens. Very nice. I speak from experience (took shots for over 10 years then stopped when symptoms were abated for several years). — — Lou Pecora – My views are my own.
Response:
I suspect the Flovent, especially if you get worse as the dose goes up. Some of Flovent’s side effects are serioius and permanent. Read the warning paper that comes with it. Wheezing is a side effect of Flovent, ( big help). And I never had hives before Flovent, (another side effect), I only used it for 3 weeks and I still get hives 20 months later.

Hi Dana, Some things that might help. Are your windows in the house closed. Do you keep your windows closed when traveling in the car? This will keep the pollen out of the house and car.
For the house it might be a better idea to use a window fan with a pollen filter. I mean, what if she’s allergic to indoor things as well like mold spores and dust mite junk? — web: http://www.insecurities.org/jenwolf I keep my air conditioner on with the windows closed. Of course it’s over 90 here. If there is a dust mite problem or mold problem then those issues need to be addressed. I live in a low humidity area so mold and dust mites aren’t that big of a deal here, but I do have my mattresses encased, etc. Also our house is 2 years old, and we are getting rid of the carpets and going to install laminate flooring to elimate other thousands of things that carpets hold. Anything I think will help with my ashtma and allergys I try to do. Also I live on a farm and no kittys are allowed inside, along with the rest of the animals. So no pet dander either. Kathy
Response:
Thanks everyone for the input. For the record, I always have the windows closed and the a/c on. Use a top of the line filter as well just for allergies. I have a air purifer in my bedroom. There are no pets in the house. I am extremely allergic to mold and grass pollen both of which have been at high levels in my area for the past 2 wks. I have not had any probs with my allergies or asthma since I developed sinusitus this past winter. I have developed a sinus infection as of this morning and have started on antibiotics. This mess in my nose is starting to flare up my asthma more and more and hope I don’t have to get back on prednisone. Just can’t handle how moody I get on it. I have to take a test this coming Sat. in order to apply to grad school so I am a bit freaked out to say the least. I really hope I start feeling better in the next few weeks. Dana
Response:
For the last couple of weeks my alllergies have really flared up.
Claritin has helped me. There’s no interaction with my other meds but check with your dr *and* pharmicist. Ted
Response:
Talk to your doctor about adding pseudophedrine decongestant to help with sinuses (there’s a variation of Zyrtec called Zyrtec-D with a 12 hour dose of pseudophedrine included). There may be reasons against your taking it. Good luck Liam

Check back with your Doctor and let him know of your problems without self medicating yourself.

Hi Dana, Some things that might help. Are your windows in the house closed. Do you keep your windows closed when traveling in the car? This will keep the pollen out of the house and car. Are you rinsing out your nose with salt? Use pickling salt, as it is more pure and warm water with a syringe or water pic. Do several times a day before you use the flonase. I also gargle with the salt water mixture. This helps the sore throat. Also when I am having a bad flare like this, I use the nebulizer instead of the albuterol inhaler. I take hot showers for the steam to open up also. You could ask the doc for a steroid shot, as they last about 3 weeks. Hope this helps Kathy

Question:
Since I started Singulair 10mg 1x tablets 2 weeks ago, I get headaches almost daily. (Didn’t have that with Accolate). I have tried advil and tylenol but neither seems to get rid of the headache completely. Sometimes the headache is on one side only—never had that before. For those with the same sideaffect, what are you taking that seems to work on these headaches? Thanks, Lynn
Response:
If you are getting headaches from the Singulair you need to call your doctor and tell him. He may advice you to quit taking it. Any side effect of a drug should be reported to your doctor at once!!

Response:
Headaches are a known side affect with Singulair. My patient information guide shows that and the Dr. has confirmed that. It is a side affect I am willing to deal with so long as my asthma is controlled. I have cough asthma and I have tried just about every drug combo/type in the past 2.5 years with no real relief. So far, I am getting slowly better on the singuliar with Flovent 110 2puffs 2x and albuterol as needed. At this point I just want to know what works to relieve the headaches and if they will taper off as I adjust to the Singulair over time. From what I have been told, the answer so far seems to be yes.

Lynn, When you have to start taking meds for the side-effects, there is cause to be concerned. What the headaches are from?? I tried Singulair and am considering it again (I still have 1/2 bottle left), but I did have flare-up while I was on it and went back to Accolate. I’m not noticing any side effects, otherwise I’d think twice about continuing. Better report that to the doc too. Since I started Singulair 10mg 1x tablets 2 weeks ago, I get headaches

The Prescribing Information shows that headaches with Singular are not significently greater than with placebo.

Hmmmm. Good question. I thought Ventolin and Proventil (and generic albuterol/salbutamol) MDI’s were equivalent. But you are correct, the site says not only are the MDI’s not equivalent but other forms of albuterol (powder, pills) are not equivalent. However, Ventolin is made by Glaxo of England, and in the US is also supplied as Proventil by Schering under license from Glaxo. I doubt that the differences are significent, and I think if anything that Ventolin is the more reliable product. I think I did see a post that said Schering uses a different pressure in their propellant, but its interesting the other versions of albuterol are also not equivalent; maybe absorbed at a different rate. Ventolin and Proventil both have the same amount of albuterol, 90 mcg/puff at the mouthpiece [100 mcg/puff at nozzle]. My HMO provides generic albuterol MDI’s, Dey. It seems to work as well as Ventolin or Proventil, both of which I have used. http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/albut1.htm albuterol Excerpt: "How Supplied – Rated Therapeutically Equivalent: Aerosol, Metered – Inhalation – 0.09 mg/inh 17 gm, 200 inh $22.20 Ventolin, Refill, Glaxo Wellcome 00173-0321-98 17 gm, 200 inh $24.08 Ventolin, Inhaler, Glaxo Wellcome 00173-0321-88 How Supplied – Not Rated Equivalent: Aerosol, Metered – Inhalation – 0.09 mg/inh 17 gm $22.20 Proventil, Schering 00085-0614-03 17 gm $24.09 Proventil, Schering 00085-0614-02 Capsule, Gelatin – Inhalation – 200 mcg 100’s $24.08 Ventolin, Rotacaps, Refill, Glaxo Wellcome 00173-0389-02 100’s $28.42 Ventolin, Rotacaps, Glaxo Wellcome 00173-0389-01 24’s $19.51 Ventolin Rotacaps, Glaxo Wellcome 00173-0389-03 Powder – - 100 gm $135.00 Albuterol Sulfate, Elge 58298-0509-01 100 gm $187.50 Albuterol, Paddock Labs 00574-0512-01 25 gm $52.50 Albuterol, Paddock Labs 00574-0512-25 Tablet, Coated, Sustained Action – Oral – 4 mg 100’s $63.24 Volmax, Muro Pharm 00451-0398-50 100’s $63.31 Proventil Repetabs, Schering 00085-0431-02 100’s $79.28 Proventil Repetabs, Schering 00085-0431-04 500’s $307.10 Proventil, Schering 00085-0431-03 60’s $35.67 Volmax, Muro Pharm 00451-0398-00 Tablet, Coated, Sustained Action – Oral – 8 mg 100’s $117.42 Volmax, Muro Pharm 00451-0399-50 60’s $63.60 Volmax, Muro Pharm 00451-0399-00" Copyright 1997 – Mosby Inc. – Mosby’s GenRx

boy, I thought I was going crazy expirencing this! like you, nothing seems to work, and my asthma doc is convinced there’s "no side-effects" with singulair…maybe it’s finally time to get a second (and third if necessary ) opinion! Judge me all you want, just keep the verdict to yourself

Question:
I have been taking Serzone for at least 3 months. Before that i took Zoloft very briefly. I had a lot of side effects on Zoloft. Started out on 50mg of Serzone now at 300mg. I havnt noticed any strong reaction one way or another. No real bad side effects and no real help for sp. No weight gain. I think I have been feeling alittle less anxious- like I dont care as much what people think. I do feel alittle tired during the day tho but I cant say for sure its because of that. My therapist recommends I go a higher dose -she thinks I will feel more of an affect then. We shall see. Renee
Response:
From: zkwyed1 zkwyed1NOzkS…@yahoo.co I’ve been taking Serzone for about two months now. Before that I had taken Wellbutrin for about two months. On the Wellbutrin I was having a lot of trouble sleeping and problems with trembling and feeling on edge, not to mention it didn’t help with anxiety much. So I switched to Serzone which helps sleeping a lot, in fact one of the problems I had the first couple of weeks was that I could hardly wake up. I could shut of my alarm after eight hours of sleep and still sleep for hours after that… my bed would just call to me with some sort of siren song thing…
LOL. I know that feeling. I’ve been taking it 2 weeks now and I still have a hard time waking up. I’m hoping that will pass. Today (Saturday) I slept till 10:00 am ! I haven’t done that in a long time. I am feeling very sluggish tho. and I’m really hoping that will go away.
That was the only problem I had with weight gain, I felt like a giant slug and didn’t want to move much. It has gotten a lot better in that regard. In fact, I would say that if you’re someone with anxiety, Serzone doesn’t add the tense jittery feeling that Wellbutrin seemed to for me. That is definitely only my opinion.
I don’t feel the least bit jittery on this med : ) I didn’t understand about the weight gain, did you gain weight on this med?? I’m asking because my doc told me I would gain weight on this one. (that’s what they all say, huh)

Response:
I too went from Remeron to Serzone but for different reasons. The first couple of months on Serzone I couldn’t stand the sight of food. That’s the good part. The bad part was that it made me very nervous and irritable. I stuck it out and by month 3 I was feeling pretty good and the sp was tolerable. Unfortunatly I also got my appetite back (w/o weight gain) Sad to say I developed a serious side effect after 6 months and had to quit taking it. So it’s back to hit and miss with the meds again. I hope you have good luck with it. Gina * Sent from RemarQ http://www.remarq.com The Internet’s Discussion Network * The fastest and easiest way to search and participate in Usenet – Free!

Question:
Hi Tom, I am a wine-maker and get a lot of pleasure from making and drinking my own wine. Most medications (as far as I have seen), tell you to avoid alcohol (there, that’s my disclaimer <G) but I truly do enjoy a good glass of red 3/4 times a week. Several times I have even had (gasp!) 2 glasses of wine, but I draw the line there. What I have found is that I have no tolerance for alcohol -I either feel very sleepy or get quite giddy. I have not felt any after-effects the next day. My doctor is fully aware of my hobby.
I think most doctors automatically tell you not to drink, or very little, whether you’re on medication or not. But, for me too, when I’m on a benzo, alcohol has an increased effect, and a lot less of it goes a lot farther than I want. A lot of us self-medicate with alcohol as it is a CNS depressant sort of like benzo’s with a much shorter half-life and more dangerous side-effects. Listen to your body and you can probably tell is you can handle a little alcohol with the drugs or not. (Unless you are a substance abuser, that is.) Gordon Held
Response:
That seems to be the case. Too bad meds ALL have to say this. I had to take an antibiotic once with the same warning – but there it DID matter. WOW! Talk about am upset stomach! Yikes! So… a beer or two is cool. A good glass of cabernet even better!

I have not felt any after-effects the next day. My doctor is fully aware of my hobby. The times that I do not drink at all are the periods when my anxiety is extremely high and I am either levelling up on a medication or trying a new one or if the depression is very bad. Then I wait for a few months until I feel "balanced" again. BTW, I take a TCA daily and an occasional benzo when needed. If you are concerned about damage to your body, you could have your doctor do a liver function test. Cheers! Charley So… I want to understand… Does taking Buspar or Xanax, etc. forever disallow you from enjoying a beer or two with friends -something that has REALLY lifted my spirits in the past. I’ve battled this question myself several times and usually have the beer or wine, not to excess. But I WOULD like to know if it is TRULY harmful, in this VERY moderate way? Doctors will, of course, say no alcohol. Pharmacy, same thing. I understand. They have to cover their ass and the combination probably is not good (chemically speaking) but alcohol never is good for you anyway. Addictive people should NEVER cross the two! To that I agree. But, once you take some of the "fairly" harmless fun out of your life, your anxiety can go though the roof! I KNOW! Exercise is great. I do it myself regularly when I can. BUT… giving up those few beers with my friends FOREVER seems harsh! I drank twice (half bottle of wine once and a few beers another time) while on Buspar (5 mg/twice day) and Xanax (1 mg 2-3 times a day). All I noticed is I had a good time, might have slept TOO well, and maybe a little more groggy getting up. So what! Took a shower and went back to my daily, fairly healthy grind! Probably a week or two later I may have done the same thing. I have a high tolerance to drugs (Found out the hard way after an appendectomy!). That’s just "my" body chemistry. Just curious if I’m crazy or not? Please no preachy non alcohol speeches. I’d just like to know what the REAL danger here is. Maybe we should all just go to http://www.beer.com and send each other a "virtual" beer! It’s really there! Someone else can start that tradition. Any takers? Tom …do not mix very well. i went a little nuts lastnight and drank a couple quarts of beer, felt fine til i woke up this morning, now i’m wondering if i have done long lasting damage to my body!!!!! uggggh. 15mg 2x a day and 3 quarts of pabst, you think i will live? needless to say i’m not doing that again.

If you react well to it there should be no problem in moderate drinking, although it’s better not to do it on a daily basis. I often drink a few glasses of wine myself and have done so on 375 different meds and I’m still around with the ol’ liver still intact. *Moderation* is the keyword here though. Interaction with benzos: alcohol and benzos both are CNS depressants which means that they may enhance each other’s effects: in other words, you may get drunk sooner or be more sedated than others. Hangovers may consist of PA’s. I’m not familiar with the exact interaction with Buspar but I do know that except with MAOI’s, AD’s can be taken while drinking a few glasses of wine/beer. My pdoc doesn’t mind me drinking as he knows I’m not going to be a alcoholic.

Well, I’ve tried this a couple of times (I am on Xanax and Zoloft), and all that ever seemed to happen is that I had a hangover seemingly no matter what – sometimes even from 1 beer!

I had a REAL BAD experience when I was a drinker and took Buspar. The two do not mix together well at all. I personally don’t approve of drinking while taking meds…end of story. But for those who do I say this…..Buspar and alcohol ARE dangerous. Be careful. You have to stop and ask yourself is drinking more important or is my health more important. Yes….alcohol causes health problems. I only wish the best for you.

nah, i’m a professional drinker…… here’s my record for most alcohol consumed in an evening, it’s true i wrote it all down the next day, amazed myself even: 3 12oz cans of pabst 2 long island teas a martini 2 12 oz bottles of miller 1 screw driver 4 16 oz draft beers (unknown brand) 1 big margarita and a quart of pabst before bed and i didn’t even have a hangover, i was at work at 9 am on the dot. i wouldn’t lie "Remember, when someone annoys you that it takes 42 muscles to frown, but it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and whack them in the head." http://members.aol.com/unfun26/enter.htm

Been doing that lately my self. Watch – that it can truley mess you up. Do you feel it helps – albeit only temporarily? What about depression the next day? Terable? You’re so much better off when you do something physical. Working out helps. I guess that would include narly s-x too. Well i wish i could make that claim lately but i’m crossing a sand doon in the middle of the desert.. I know that soon along will come Ms or Mrs right, food and water! Maybe then i’ll be able to worry about somebody else’s life 1/2 as much as i do mine. Maybe i just need two women! Wo wo wo, i thought you were banned. Don’t know if we should be talking. Well i think the question now is do you think you learned what ever lesson that it was you should have been learning? Make people come to you. Screw them – it’ll happen.! In the mean time hold your head up and by all means just relax. ralph g

i felt great while drinking, it was the next morning i had to pay though. i didn’t have one single bit of anxiety during the festivities. no depression the next day, just horrible shakes and headache, and a thought that i had hurt my brain beyond repair.

working out is a good thing, well, i play soccer, and do a lot of walking, not really "working out" but it is exercise. sex is a bore and does nothing more than make life more complicated. oh well, i’ve sworn it off for now.

huh? the banned thing is because i was banned from a club in memphis for talking shite on them on my web page, it’s just an inside joke in a couple other news groups. In the mean time hold your head up and by all means just relax.

Was only wondering. Don’t mix meds and alcohol! Not good for you and in most cases it’s antagonistic in it’s effects. I RARELY even mix a little g.bud with it. Come down and by all means don’t add to the problem! 
I never have any anxiety while drinking but i never need help with that, med wise. I don’t even like mixing analgisics with my hang over! You bought it you pay for it. PAY AS YOU GO! Leave your chemistry alone And sex is a bore? What? <biting toung to keep from commenting See ya, gotta go now. Sex a bore? It’s always a bore if you’re lucky! Thanks for the explain- on the banned thing. Avoided that as much as possible. Was there something you wanted to add? Talking s–t on yo web page? Not cooo if you ask me.

Hi Tom, I am a wine-maker and get a lot of pleasure from making and drinking my own wine. Most medications (as far as I have seen), tell you to avoid alcohol (there, that’s my disclaimer <G) but I truly do enjoy a good glass of red 3/4 times a week. Several times I have even had (gasp!) 2 glasses of wine, but I draw the line there. What I have found is that I have no tolerance for alcohol -I either feel very sleepy or get quite giddy. I have not felt any after-effects the next day. My doctor is fully aware of my hobby. The times that I do not drink at all are the periods when my anxiety is extremely high and I am either levelling up on a medication or trying a new one or if the depression is very bad. Then I wait for a few months until I feel "balanced" again. BTW, I take a TCA daily and an occasional benzo when needed. If you are concerned about damage to your body, you could have your doctor do a liver function test. Cheers! Charley
