But it may be also working on the infective cause of your dog's illness in the first place, so don't stop it without speaking to your vet. Meanwhile keep your dog hydrated. If you can find an unflavoured electrolyte drink like Pedialyte that would be great.
Plain water would do for a short time but Pedialyte would be better. I took metronidazole gel at about 20 weeks for bv and baby is fine now at about 28 weeks. I am 30 weeks and I took it and it caused me to have seizures and stop breathing. Have any of you taken it before and had any issues? I know my doctor wouldnt give me anything harmful to the baby, but it still just scares me. Any tips would help! I was prescribed it last week for a bacterial infection. Took it 4 times and my face started to break out in a rash.
Called the pharmacist and then the doctor. Both said i was having an allergic reaction to the medicine. Both said to stop taking it. I go to the doctor next week to ddiscuss other options. So just watch out for that Has anyone ever used oral metronidazole for a vaginal bacterial infection? I'm on my 5th of 7th day and have developed a very thick clear to cloudy mucousy discharge.
Is this normal. I know the gel form will pull everything out in a thick white chunky discharge but does the oral pill. My heart beat is erratic most of the time anyway but when I tried taking flagyl for campylobacter, it didn't affect my heart at all.
I just got extremely sick and intestinal issues worsened. They had to switch me. For the past ten days I have been taking Metronidazole Two mg oral tablets, twice daily.
I took my last pills lastnight around pm. My question is, would it be okay for me to consume alcohol on Saturday night? I know my pharmacist told me to absolutely stay away from alcohol while I was taking the pills because I would vomit alot, and he said most people wait a couple of days after they've finished before they drink.
Im just wondering if two days is enough time? Hi my name is jennifer I been taking antibiotics for the past 2 weeks, Omeprazole 20 mg, Metronidazole mg and Clarithromycin mg and also I been taking my birth control pills for the past 3 weeks Jolivette. I jus found out today I am pregnant. I'm concer with the health of the unborn baby. I am worry if the any possibility of births defects and any other problem related to the medications. When my symptoms first started they were accompanied with sensory neuropathy which is burning of the skin on the front and sides of my thighs.
I also had a high wbc of 19k, and my armpits hurt. The neuropathy has gotten a lot better. Armpits still hurt. Wbc has come down to 11k. I've been tested for so many things and everything is negative. Except I'm vitamin D deficient and my sugar level gets low sometimes. I don't know if all these symptoms are linked.

Benfotiamine is like vitamin B-1, which is also known as thiamine. It's thought to reduce pain and inflammation levels and prevent cellular damage. Is vitamin b6 toxicity reversible?
Symptoms of toxicity include hyperaesthesia, paraesthesia, muscle weakness, numbness and loss of proprioception and vibration sense. In most instances, the clinical signs of toxicity were reversible once ingestion of high doses of vitamin B6 had ceased.
Can I take vitamin b6 and magnesium together? The Magnesium — Vitamin B6 Connection. Used together , this mineral and vitamin combination can relieve a lot of common health issues. Magnesium is a mineral that, despite having literally hundreds of roles in the human body, can actually be relatively difficult to obtain decent amounts of in the diet.
Do bananas have b12? It also contains some fiber and protein. What foods are high in vitamin b12 and b6? What foods have vitamin B6 and vitamin B12? Vitamin B6 comes in protein-rich foods like turkey and beans, as well as potatoes, spinach, and enriched cereal grains. Meats, milk, and fish also contain vitamin B12, a powerful immune booster. Do almonds have b12? While soy, almond and rice milks are not naturally high in vitamin B12 , they are usually fortified, making them an excellent source of this vitamin.
What is the difference between vitamin b6 and vitamin b12? B vitamins are an important class of vitamins that help support your red blood cells and your nervous system. Among other things, vitamin B6 helps keep blood sugar within a normal range, vitamin B12 protects against anemia, and folate folic acid helps prevent changes to your DNA that could lead to cancer.
How can I raise my b12 levels fast? To increase the amount of vitamin B12 in your diet, eat more of foods that contain it, such as:. Beef, liver, and chicken. The pattern of elevation of liver enzymes is consistent with a hepatocellular injury with marked alanine aminotransferase ALT elevations greater than 10 times the upper limit of normal and minimal alkaline phosphatase ALP elevations. These can be present during the acute hepatic injury phase but usually in very low titers.
As ANA can also be positive in autoimmune hepatitis, the absence of arthralgia and hyperglobulinemia can help differentiate it from INH induced hepatotoxicity. Recently, antibodies to INH have also been detected in INH recipients, but their presence has not been linked to liver injury yet.
Acute toxicity is approached by strict airway management, activated charcoal if the patient presents early, seizure management with the use of benzodiazepines, and pyridoxine administration. This helps with the rapid restoration of GABA stores. Elevated serum aminotransferase levels develop during the first few weeks of therapy and are termed as mild INH hepatotoxicity.
In most cases, such toxicity is self-limiting, and the adaptive response allows the continuation of the agent as long as patients remain asymptomatic without a progressive elevation in aminotransferase levels. However, it is very important to know that INH should be immediately discontinued if there are hepatitis-related symptoms or progressive elevation in aminotransferase levels.
The onset of any symptoms of hepatitis such as anorexia, nausea, jaundice, and fatigue in a patient with abnormal liver biochemical tests should prompt cessation of INH forthwith. The exact level of aminotransferases at which INH should be discontinued is unclear.
If liver enzymes continue to worsen or patients develop symptoms of hepatitis, therapy should be discontinued; otherwise, close monitoring is recommended.
Once the liver enzymes return to baseline or less than twice normal , the potential hepatotoxic drugs can be restarted one at a time with careful monitoring between resuming each agent. Rechallenge with INH may be done cautiously with serial monitoring of liver biochemical tests in patients with a strong indication for therapy and who have not had a severe hepatoxicity with INH. Many public health programs that require INH prevention for a positive tuberculin skin test or a blood test for diagnosing Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection include monthly liver enzyme monitoring; although, there is limited evidence of benefit for such practice.
Monitoring of liver biochemical tests while on therapy is generally recommended in patients with chronic liver disease or age above 50 years as these individuals are at a higher risk for developing hepatotoxicity. Though there are no specific therapies for INH induced liver damage, some studies have shown a mortality benefit in using corticosteroids and N-acetylcysteine early in the course of liver injury. In rare instances, the hepatotoxicity from INH can be very severe prompting the need for an emergency liver transplant.
Peripheral neuropathy is avoided and treated with daily pyridoxine administration along with INH. The main differential diagnoses of INH toxicity include the differentials for jaundice and peripheral neuropathy. The prognosis depends on how acute the toxicity is, the dose of drug taken, and the overall health of the individual.
The patient should be instructed properly on consumption of adequate dose of the drug at the appropriate time. If the patient is not able to remember properly, the task can be assigned to a family member to dispense the medicine. With rising rates of tuberculosis, the prescription of isoniazid has also increased. And sometimes, isoniazid toxicity occurs because of multiple or inadvertent dosing. Isoniazid toxicity is usually managed by an interprofessional team that consists of an emergency department physician, nurse practitioner, toxicologist, poison control, neurologist, and an internist.
In all cases of isoniazid toxicity, the offending agent must first be discontinued. The treatment is generally supportive with hydration and monitoring. If there is evidence of liver damage, small case studies suggest the use of N-acetyl cysteine and corticosteroids. In rare cases, a liver transplant may be required. Today, peripheral neuropathy is rarely seen because most patients are prescribed pyridoxine at the initiation of isoniazid therapy.

Introduction Isoniazid INH is a potent bactericidal antibiotic used in the treatment of tuberculosis. There are 2 known syndromes of hepatotoxicity: Mild type manifesting as transient and asymptomatic elevation in serum aminotransferase levels. Severe acute hepatitis which can sometimes be fatal [1]. Etiology INH is a potent antimycobacterial agent that inhibits cell wall synthesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is used in both therapeutic and prophylactic regimens.
