Question

I read that Lasix (furosemide) is not for long term, that you need to have blood test to see if kidneys are being effected, how long is it safe to use lasix (furosemide)?

Answer 1

Matter of balance: B"sdI kidney function is impaired - most important is whether it is worsening or stable. High doses of diurects suggest being treated for serious heart failure - these may cause dehydration and worsening kidney function. Great expertise is needed to balance the benefits with the adverse effects of the medications. Depending -agents like ACE, ARB class may be appropriate - require expertise

Answer 2

Often: The more "tummy time" your baby gets, the rounder her head will be and the easier it will be for her to learn to roll, sit and crawl. Tummy time - as much as possible!

Answer 3

Often as can: As often as you can while awake. Start with 2-3 minutes aftwr each diaper change to remind yourself. Get down with baby to look at you and/or toys. Increase time and frequency as baby gets stronger.

Answer 4

Depends on his age: Babies need less sleep as they age. The following is the average amount of sleep babies need at different ages; each individual baby is slightly different. Newborns: 16-18 hr/day (half during the day, half at night) 3 months: 15 hr/ day 9 months: 14 hr/day (but now it's 10 hr at night, 4 during the day) 2 years old: 13 hr/day (most at night with a 2 hour nap) 4 year old 11 hr (no nap).

Answer 5

12-18 hours usually: Babies sleep almost 16-20 hours when first born, so in theory they could do nothing but eat and sleep and they'd be fine. As they get a little older, that can go down, but generally 12 to 16 hours is a normal level. The real question is, how are they when they are awake? If alert, happy, and energetic, then they are doing fine.

Answer 6

Yes: Your period shouldn't start until the end of the pack during the placebo portion. During days 22-28.

Answer 7

Pristiq (desvenlafaxine): At therapeutic doses, should be safe.

Answer 8

Pristiq (desvenlafaxine) : Pristig can effect your kidney and heart.

Answer 9

Only if job injury: A claim can be filed if there was a job related injury as the source of your back pain. You ahould check with your state's worker compensation board or an attorney who specializes in this area for further information about such a claim.
