Question 3

To follow up on dr. heip le question. my wife takes the following pills. keppra (for epilepsy), loratadine(for allergies), baclofen,turmeric, meloxicam, cyclobenzaprine, and magnesium pills to try to help stop the muscle spasms i be having?

Accepted Answer

Your wife is not taking any medication which I mentioned in the previous comment. 
Does she take Baclofen, Cyclobenzaprine, Turmeric, Meloxicam and Magnesium just for the cramping? That means she was already evaluated by a doctor. What's his (her) thought about the cause?
Except Keppra, I would advise to stop the above med one by one, especially Meloxicam which can can cause gastroduodenal ulcer.

Question 4

If i'm taking lioresal, (baclofen) can i start taking motival too?

Accepted Answer

Motival is a combination of a major tranquilizer and a tricyclic antidepressant.  This combination alone can cause drowsiness.  The muscle relaxant Liorisal will almost always cause drowsiness.  I think you know where I'm heading here.  If the same doctor did not prescribe both drugs, be sure each doctor is aware.and approves. Don't drive until you see how you are affected by the combo. NO ALCOHOL

Relatively contraindicated secondary to additive central nervous system depression.

Question 8

May i take "nicotinell 21mg/24h "patch with "lioresal 100 mg/ day?

Accepted Answer

Lioresal=injectable baclofen, a muscle relaxant for (among others) spasticity from  spine disease & multiple sclerosis (MS). Nicotinell=nicotine patch for smoking cessation. I can find no interaction between the two. Although important under any circumstance, smoking cessation is particularly important for people with MS as there is some evidence that smoking may be a risk factor for progression.

Question 9

Can a parents allergies be passed on to their children?

Accepted Answer

What is passed genetically from parent to child is the propensity to develop atopy (such as eczema, asthma, allergic rhinitis, food allergies) but usually not sensitization to specific allergens which the parent is allergic to.  The exception, which is a controversial topic, is drug allergies, but this is usually dependent on metabolism of the drug which is inherited rather than the allergy.

Question 10

Does a cough come with allergies in children?

Accepted Answer

But not all the time. Nasal allergies are not a frequent cause of a really bad persistent cough. In a child with allergies and a really bad cough (assuming no fever) I would be concerned about a reactive airway/asthma type condition. If the child also had eczema I would be even more concerned.
