Dust mite allergy? : Monosodium glutamate (msg) is an additive in some foods, but is not related to "house allergy" in any way.

Question 4

Almost there: There is still some infection or inflammation going on causing the bleeding.  Those areas of bleeding probably need a little more attention.There is laser therapy, localized antibiotic therapy and localized scaling.

Question 5

can taking oral liquid ferrous gluconate cause further damage dangerously in irritated esophagus? it hurts badly just after taking it, but i need iron

Accepted Answer

Possibly: It is important to understand that I am is digested and absorbed after being exposed to significant amount of stomach acid to break it down hence the stomach irritation with ingestion of Ferris sulfate. There are other means of iron supplementationsuch as IV fusions.

Question 6

how much ferrous gluconate equals 325 mg of ferrous sulfate.  reason for question is am a peritoneal dialysis patient and they are saying feg not as g?

Accepted Answer

Elemental iron: Each 5mg of ferrous glauconate has 0.6mg of elemental iron and each 5mg of ferrous sulfate has 1mg of elemental iron.  325 mg of ferrous sulfate has 65mg of elemental iron (I.e. 325 divided by 5), so it is equivalent to 542 mg of ferrous gluconate (I.e. 65 times 5, divided by 0.6). If you are iron deficient you need 2-3 mg of elemental iron per kg of your body weight daily in 2-3 divided doses.

Question 7

can potassium gluconate, magnesium or invokana cause cloudiness and a popcorn like smell in the urine?

Accepted Answer

Likely Invokana: since the popcorn like smell is a result of urine full of glucose.  I have had other patients complain of "sweet tea" and "just baked bread" smell to their urine, though the latter had a yeast infection.  Cloudiness would make it more likely to be infection.  Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.

Question 8

i know antibiotics cause c.diff infection. but does clorhexidine gluconate cause c.diff as it kills bacteria? can clorhexidine gluconate gargle cause c.diff or kill good bacteria in the gut?

Accepted Answer

: Unlike antibiotics, antiseptics (like chlorhexidine) generally do not stimulate resistance or increase risk of C diff. Chlorhexidine gargle alters the oral microbiome (the mix of bacteria in the oral cavity) but probably has no major effect on intestinal bactera, at least not in recommended doses. Follow label directions on frequency of use; and spit it out after gargling -- don't swallow it.

Question 9

can mouth wash containing chlorhexidine gluconate be ototoxic and cause hearing loss?

Accepted Answer

NO: No. The reported ototoxicity from chlorhexidine is for use in the middle ear. See ENT doc if you have hearing loss.
