Question

Is it safe to take celexa (citalopram) and baclofen both 2gether for ongoing txs?Any reason 2 fear a bad reaction?, or not 2 take em both?

Answer 1

Can't oblige you: Celexa (citalopram) & Baclofen used together can cause excessive or prolonged central nervous system and respiratory depression. Also, recently reports on higher doses of Celexa (citalopram) noted possible irregular heart rhythms. If you are taking any other meds, there may other significant interactions. Sorry we can't provide you with the info you'd like to hear.

Answer 2

Monitor: Since both the medicines have effects on the brain, caution needs to be applied for breathing and central nervous system depressant effect. Becomes an issue especially in elderly and debilitated.

Answer 3

18-20 hours: Most newborns are only awake for feedings, diaper changes and, on average, a few hours of crying time per day. Remember that this is an average. Some babies, just like some adults, need less sleep. If your baby is happy, healthy and growing properly, she is probably getting enough sleep. Also, most newborns are more awake at night, so try to nap when she is napping.

Answer 4

16-22 hours: Newborns sleep a lot, but not for long stretches at a time. Newborns need to eat every 3 hours or so (and sometimes more frequently) so between eating, changing their diapers and putting them down it doesn't allow for a long continuous stretch of sleep. By 3 months most babies can go 6 hours (at night) and some may even sleep through the night by 4 months!

Answer 5

1 or 2: Well, there is a small discrepancy right now. The cdc, the people who recommend how to get shots, recommends that kids 11-18 need two doses. One at 11yo and one aft 16yo. But, the fda has not approved either brand, Menveo or menactra, to be given that way. Both are only approved as a one dose vaccine. This will clear up soon and every kid will get 2 doses, and you can do that now off fda label.

Answer 6

How old are you?: One usually given in childhood; then second end of high school / @ college entry. Lasts 10-15 years, so if working with high risk populations (kids/teens/young adults), could get booster in 35-ish age.

Answer 7

Family History: Your family history (colon cancer, colon polyps and even breast/ovarian cancers) are more important than your ethnic background.

Answer 8

No: Im not aware of any increased risk of colon cancer in native americans. If you have a family history that is different. Be sure to be referred for colon screening at age 50 or sooner if you have a family history.

Answer 9

5: There are 5 stages of chronic kidney disease. Stage1 means minimal disease while stage 5 means you are close to dialysis.

Answer 10

5: Stage 1 is normal and stage 5 is generally dialysis dependent. The stages are defined by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (egfr) with cut points as follows: stage 1 >90ml/min stage 2 > 60 ml/min stage 3 > 30 ml/min stage 4 > 15 ml/min stage 5 < 15 ml/min the egfr is obtained by either the cockroft gault or the mdrd method.

Answer 11

Work With Your Doc: Your question is right on target, but because there are so many kinds, and the diagnosis is made based on a careful medical history and certain lab tests, it's almost impossible to self-diagnose kidney problems. Even the basic test to diagnose it is a blood test that a doctor must order. Give your doc a call if you think you might have an issue.

Answer 12

Nephrologists can: Theses are kidney specialists who should be able to tell you what your kidneys are suffering from. Would start with primary care doc however.
