A woman I care for has ibs and glaucoma. The doctor put her on cosopt of drops recently and she feels it is affecting her ibs. Before taking cosopt she had her ibs under control. Is this possibles? ## Hello, Tricia! How are you? Yes, that is possible. When something is used in the eye, as opposed to being used topically on the skin, more of it is absorbed and it can cause problematic side effects. This medication is approved by the FDA to treat intraocular pressure associated with glaucoma and its typical side effects may possibly include burning, stinging, redness, blurred vision and bitter taste in mouth. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have just finished a 2 month course of deltacortril 5 mg for IBS symptoms and have never felt better while taking them. I am off them about 1 week and can already feel the symptoms returning. Is prolonged use of deltacortril recommended and what would the risks and side effects be? ## Deltacortril contains the active ingredient Prednisolone, which is a steroid class medication. So no, prolonged use isn't recommended, because it can cause compromised immunity, as well as fluid retention, both of which may lead to other dangerous health complications. Learn more Deltacortril details here. Your doctor may prescribe it for another period of time, but you should only take it if they instruct you to do so. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## My 6 year old son is using deltacor...

Is anyone taking these two drugs together? My pharmacist is concerned, but both my Gastroenterologist (who prescribed it for IBS) and Psychiatrist are not concerned as I have no history of seizures. I also take Lamictal for bipolar, which was originally an anti-seizure drug. Confusing. ## Taking them together can lower your seizure threshold, and the Buproprion can increase the effect of the Amitriptyline, so the dosage of the Bupropion should be kept as low as possible, and your doctor should be monitoring you regularly in case any problems arise. Ref: Medscape Interactions You can use that interaction checker to read more. Medline Plus Amitriptyline and Bupropion. However, part of a pharmacist's job is to be cautious, and make sure you are aware of any possible risks, and they oft...

I've been suffering from Ulcerative Colitis and IBS for about 4 years now and I have found no relief from changing my diet or othee various meds my GI doctor has prescribed me. I have (or had) flare ups at least 3-4 a week, where I would literally end up going from the fetal position, crying to the toilet for hours on end. I also have a lot of psychological issues, amongst the worst would be my OCD and Anxiety. My doctor had me on Ativan, Kolonopin, and three months ago he put me on Xanax. For the last three months, I have had only one flare up and that was the first week I started the Xanax. I Google'd it and the results were mixed; so I was wondering if anybody here could give me maybe some personal or professional experience with this? I have not changed my diet, taken any ne...

Doctor prescribed trepeline for treatment of IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) about 5 years ago as its supposed to slow down my stomach digestion process. Im not too convinced, are there any natural medicines I can take instead of trepeline? Reduced dosage down to 10mg and only take 1 in a 3 day cycle, I have trouble sleeping if I stay off it for longer than 3 days... Stomach starts running too. ## Hello, Deepguy! How are you? Yes, if you stop it without doing a very slow taper, you will experience some withdrawal effects, such as what you've described. The difference between it and the natural stuff is that this medication is actually proven to work. The natural substances aren't, so of course your doctor is going to want you to take something that has been proven to have the des...

I have been suffering from stomach problems (IBS) for 5 years. My dr prescribed me levosulpiride and rabeprazole tablets. Is levosulpiride or rabepraxole a stomach acid blocker? ## Rabeprazole helps prevent your stomach from producing as much as acid, by shutting some of the proton pumps. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, and flatulence. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks sir Levosupride does do the same by blocking stomach acid ?

I recently was put on chlord clidi to digestive problems relating to pancreas problem in addition to IBS. I also have a history of gastroparesis gerds and precancerous polps. Please explain how chlor clidi slows down food process in digestion which will help my pancreas ## Hi Dobby, In general, benzodiazepines, such as Chlordiazepoxide, act as depressants of the central nervous system (CNS), producing all levels of CNS depression from mild sedation to hypnosis to coma depending on dose. In laymen's terms, the sedation of the CNS allows food to digest without any disturbance from other bodily functions or feelings, per say. Clidinium is an Anticholinergic that works hand in hand with Chlordiazepoxide to inhibit the muscarinic actions of acetylcholine on structures innervated by postg...
