不是不能,而是clinical study不是建立在 Lopressor 上的,而是 Toprol。 实际上
用lopressor的病人多去了。上课考试记住要用toprol就是了。嘿嘿

water bill, HCTZ is often the first line drug. I do not know why ACEI are
not the first line. Lisinopril is cheap, too.
Anyone knows the reason, please let me know, thanks.
Lopressor is a beta blocker, it is a first line drug, too. But beta blockers
can make people feel tired.

plendil comes in 2.5, 5, and 10 mg
metoprolol(or lopressor) comes with 25, 50, or 100mg, and the tablets might
be scored and you can cut it to smaller doses, like 12.5mg,
but extended release form of metoprolo, or the toprol xl, comes in 25 and 50
and 100mgs,

my mom:
59 y/o female, history of high blood pressure (170/80 w/o medication), CT
found arteriosclerotic lesions w/ a unilateral 50% carotid artery stenosis
on the right side. currently taking aspirin & lopressor. should she
consider lacipil as her first line agent for hypertension instead?
also, what are the early signs of ischemic stroke? any home emergency
treatment to minimize the damage once symptoms occur?

when
most
just looked up, lacipil is a calcium channel blocker that is not available
in the states, if you are concerned of the lopressor's effect or side
effects, you can add another blood pressure meds, either a diuretic like
HCTZ, or the currently popular drug of choice an ACE inhibitor,
HCTZ reduce BP well but might also lower potassium and sodium levels and
makes youpee quite often; ace inhibitor could have a bothersome cough and
might cause angioedema, but is good for people with heart fa

这个就是中国人不了解美国的医疗体系吃的亏了。如果你老爸是癫痫(epilepsy),其
实不是非的去医院,你可以到URGENT CARE。 你可以到
Los Angeles Urgent Care Center
Address: 929 S. Georgia St.
Los Angeles, CA 90015
Phone: (213) 861-5950
一般来说URGENT CARE的账单只有急诊室的25%,而且等待时间更短,也可以给你照X光
,CT,还有MRI,抽血什么的。你就是缝个10多针也就是400来刀就搞定了,你要是去急
诊室,那不的4000刀啊。URGENT CARE抽血才100多刀。医生的收费也才100多。 URGENT
CARE有OBSERVATION,就是那种单独的病床,有心电监护仪器MONITOR,也不贵,反正
收不了你多少钱。人家有人CHEST PAIN到了URGENT CARE也不用等,马上就放到
OBSERVATION 病床,上心电监护,12 lead EKG, CBC, BMP, TROPONIN, 给了静脉注射
LOPRESSOR,还给了一些口服的药,也是SE... 阅读全帖

我的经验可能不是很有用。
当时申请的神内,不知道PRE和CATE的区别,也没毕业,没有CS成绩/STEP3,拿着EAD到
处唬人,最后只有一个ADVANCED的给了位置(ROL中唯一一个ADVANCED),当时马上和
PD联系请求帮忙。PD找到了一个地方同意我去面试,然而CHIEF问的问题没一个回答得
上来,自然被拒。
当时伤心是伤心,想想也就算了,准备来年卷土重来。但是听说POST-SCRAMBLE的机会
也挺多,所以每两个星期群发一次邮件,联系了2个地方的OB,开始准备考STEP3.正做
着OB的时候,收到EMAIL有空缺,没有被拒。
经验和教训:
1. 永远不要放弃。听说有人8月份,9月份进去了。我们这连1月份开始的都有。
2. OB是王道。申请失败没有临床经验占70%的因素,没有MATCH上马上行动找OB。马上
,马上找OB,否则POST-SCRAMBLE的机会没了,来年的机会也没了(4月到8月,时间紧张
得哏)。我把我做OB的ID给PD一看,PD任何临床问题都没有问,说了大概是我绝对相信
你的水平。什么水平? lopressor或者ATIVAN听都没听过。
3. 一定要准备。

下周一skill test oral medication。这周一有几个人已经考了,有个中年女的考完后
黑着脸“don't talk to me right now”,过后没敢再多问。
这次skill test有三个药,Laxis,Digoxin,Lopressor,都是很常见的药,考试时会
问关于药的问题,从drug book上摘了些主要消息,大家说应该重点看哪些?有个学生
被问道:digoxin toxicity时病人看上去是什么情况?Drug book上没找到这个。前辈
们帮我看看,在记这三个药时,重点在哪里?不想retake呀,这个skill test的retake
是一个月以后,如果不过的话,意味着这一个月里我不能给病人药。多谢先

Just learnt digoxin in pharm class.
side effects include: n/v,weakness, altered mental status, visual change
like green halos.
For lasix, make sure pt's bp is ok. Also low potassium level.
For lopressor, it's a beta-blocker, make sure the pt is not hypotension or
bradycardia.

来自主题: Nursing版 - ARDS是不是很难救活?
我看到后面讲到病人有房颤、心率125,这种时候可以试试用lopressor来控制心率。因
为快速房颤,心脏不能有效泵血,加上高PEEP影响回心血量,血压肯定是上不去。

What is the medication you suggest to substitute bystolic?
Toprol XL, lopressor, atenolol, or a CCB like norvasc?
Why?

向大家介绍一下URGENT CARE
URGENT CARE就是介于家庭医生和医院的急诊室之间的一个看病的地方,它一般不需要
预约,是WALK IN,可以处理一些不是那么生命攸关的但却又让你觉得需要马上解决的
一些身体状况。比如哮喘,食物过敏,感冒,发烧,脚崴了, 呕吐,肚子痛,腹泻,
头疼,需要找家庭医生但是正好是周末或者晚上了,家庭医生不开门,头晕,小伤口需
要缝合,腰扭了,需要输液,吊盐水。父母来探亲没有保险,糖尿病,高血压。和急诊
室一样,
URGENT CARE可以马上当天就能看到医生,但是URGENT CARE的收费比急诊室便宜的多。
比如都是抽血,急诊室的收费标准和URGENT CARE的收费标准是不一样的,同样的服务,
URGENT CARE收费大概只有急诊室的25%。
那你就会问,为什么URGENT CARE会存在,因为现在急诊室的等待时间太长,很多病人
根本不需要去急诊室,
但是他们不知道URGENT CARE的存在,还是跑去了急诊室,结果就导致了急诊室的等待
时间越来越长,
URGENT CARE的出现就是为了减轻急诊室的负担,另外也是为了给医疗保险公司和病人
