Sj Me

I am trying to find out if Evoxac is available up here in canada. If not what other drugs can be taken for sjorgens besides pilocarpine. It is expensive and i am trying to find a cheaper drug for my mom to take as she has to pay for pilocarpine and it will be over 500 for one month. ## dry mouth causes (dehydration, diabetes, Sjogren's syndrome, medications for allergies and anxiety), symptoms ## Write the company that makes the prescription. Most have a plan that will ship you the meds for free. Or go to vocational rehab usually at the unemployment office and they should have all the forms and be able to help you with any and all medication.

This is a white pill, oblong shaped. SJ 638 is imprinted into the pill. I believe it's used to treat sinus symptoms. The reason I want to know what it is, is because it works! for me at least. I got about 5 of them from my aunt last year, but she has no clue what they are now. I only have one left so I'm searching.... ## This tablet is called Bidex DM, and contains 30 mg Dextromethorphan + 800 mg Guaifenesin.

I recently found out i have Sjogren's syndrome although I have had symptoms and issues from it for many years. Is there anybody out there that could give me some helpful tips for the so many things they say come with this disease? I've studied up online about the disease but haven't found much on what to do to make life better. ## Have you been on the Sjogren's Foundation website? Sjogren's Foundation They have a lot of information, and resources for those diagnosed. This site specifically covers living with Sjogren's,

Can you take LAMICTAL, AND TOPAMAX FOR SEIZURES, COULD I STILL USE PHENTERMINE ? ## Phentermine is actually contraindicated with any type of brain disorder, or injury. Therefore, if you suffer from a disorder that causes seizures, it is probably not advisable that you take it. Have you discussed it with your doctor? ## If this is a 2-part question ('Can I take Lamictal and Topamax for seizures....), the answer is most certainly YES. I was on the same dual regimen for several years, with excellent seizure control. My Neuro d/c'd the Lamictal, as she was very "rash-hypervigilant". Terrified of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome. I developed a rash (bilateral lower legs, not consistent w SJS) and she took me off the Lamictal. The beginning of the end as far as drug effects are concer...

I found this pill and I'm trying to identify it. My wife and I have both been on several medications for various issues. The older we get, the more meds we get. This pill with SJ on one side and nothing on the other looks familiar, but I can't place it. We are trying to clean out the old stuff from our medicine cabinet. ## Hello DJ, Found a match for the pill. Turns out this is an over the counter 81 mg aspirin pill manufactured by Ilex Consumer Products Group. The drug is sold under the name St. Josephs Safety Coated Aspirin. Below I linked a picture just to be sure I found the right one. NDC: 76000-0180 Hope this helps. Let me know if there is anything else you need help with. Have a pleasant day.

I have sjogrens and have extremely dry mouth. For the past 2years my doctor has had me drink pilocarpine opthalmic eye drops mixed with water. I has not worked at all. My teeth are starting to decay. I searched the net and found salagen. I went to another dr and got my 1st script of salagen today. Directions are 5mg 4 x day. I looked at some user reviews and some had terrible side effects. I also use biotene. I have to do something, I chock on my food and sometimes can't talk because my mouth is so dry. I know there is a newer drug but I don't have insurance. Any info would be extremely helpful. ## If I were to suggest anything that may be of help to you in the long run, it would be to detox your body and boost your immune system, by eating primarily fresh fruits and vegetables ...

Underlying Sjogren's syndrome ## This was just a brand name for a saliva substitute product for people that no longer produce it on there own, or who don't produce enough. There are really no side effects or other information to provide on these types of products, because they are specially designed to just moisten the mouth and throat. Most do not have any flavor, don't cause nausea or etc. Are there any questions about them?
