Question 1

can mucaine antaacid gel prevent an ulcer?

Accepted Answer

No: Ulcers are usually caused by bacteria in the stomach and/or medications. If you are having a problem with reflux or burping up acid, antacids can give you temporary relief. I would avoid spicy foods and any foods which make your symptoms worse. If you continue to have problems despite the antacids, then you should see your doctor.

Question 2

extreme nausea, bloating and fullness on and off since many months. triggers suddenly. is relieved by 2 tsp of mucaine gel.doctor said it is gastritis?

Accepted Answer

Gastritis is Likely: This grouping of symptoms can also represent pancreatic trouble or gallbladder disease. Try to follow your foods in a diary to be sure that you aren't reacting to a particular food. You may benefit from taking an antacid more regularly.

Question 3

i m having ulcer in stomach. from few days i was having vomits and diarrhea. which are cured by injection. now im taking k-band , gramocef, tarb-40, neeri, liv-52, aspirin,mucaine gell . my stomach from centre pains ,why? what to eat to carb weakness?

Accepted Answer

: It's difficult to give you a good advice because your statement is not clear.
You have history of stomach ulcer, is it completely cured and how long was that?
Mucaine gel may be not enough to take care your stomach ulcer if the problem is recent. You need stronger med such as a proton pump inhibitor or at least a histamine 2 antagonist.
What is K-band?

Question 4

i am having ulcer. from few days i was having vomits and diarrhea. which were cured by injection. now im taking k-band , gramocef, tarb-40, neeri, liv-52, aspirin,mucaine gell . my stomach from centre pains ,why? what to drink to maintain water level?

Accepted Answer

: Avoid aspirin with an ulcer of the stomach.  But you did not say where it is.  Need more information.  I encourage everyone to use all the spices you have when asking a question.  You can almost never give us too much detail.

Question 5

lorinase syrup dosage for 34 mos at 19 kg?

Accepted Answer

Generally not used: Generally decongestants are not recommended in children younger than age 4-6 because of the potential for side effects. If your child is having allergic congestion you should check with your doctor about meds, but a tsp of benadryl, (diphenhydramine) or 1 tsp of loratidine, the anti histamine in lorinase would be ok. But check with your doctor
saline nose sprays can also aid in combating nasal congestion

Question 6

can a seven year old child take tablets with the same dosage (not halved) as its syrup medication?

Accepted Answer

Liquid vs tablet: If the dose is the same for liquid or tablet, yes
if you still have questions, speak to the pharmacist at the store they can help you decide, you can always call his pediatrician as well.

Question 7

what is the dosage for o2 syrup for kids of 7 years old?

Accepted Answer

Why are you giving: o2 syrup to a child? Check with your pediatrician before giving any product like this to a child.

Question 8

is it safe to give my 2 year old prohist syrup. if it is what would the reccomended dosage be?

Accepted Answer

Consider "none": These used to be given out routinely as prescription meds before they became over the counter. Now we don't recommend them at all under 6 if at all. So many kids ended up in ER's with overdoses that they took a look at the benefit/risk analysis.If you just want to be doing something, it can be done, but studies show no true benefit under 6.

Question 9

if you can get high off of cough syrup does that mean that even the normal dosage is dangerous?

Accepted Answer

No: When used as directed, cough meds are safe. Abusers will either drink large amounts of cough meds or concentrate the liquid.

Question 10

can i know the dosage for terbutaline sulphate 1.5mg syrup for children ?

Accepted Answer

Rarely used in US: The recommended dose is .05mg/kg every 8 hours to start and yo to .15 mg/kg every 8 hours. This is rarely used in the us where standard asthma therapy includes inhaled steroids as maintenance with beta agonist inhalers for acute events. Some physicians would use this as a cough med for kids with mild infectious bronchospasm.
