Flomax 0.4 mg oral capsule. Tamsulosin is primarily used for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and to help with the passage of kidney stones. [13] [14] Tamsulosin, however, appears to be effective only for stones over 4 mm and less than 10 mm in size. [8] Tamsulosin is also used as an add-on treatment for acute urinary retention. People may ...
It is a combination of two previously existing medications: dutasteride, brand name Avodart, and tamsulosin, brand name Flomax. It contains 0.5 mg of dutasteride and 0.4 mg of tamsulosin hydrochloride. [2] Jalyn was the result of the CombAT (Combination of Avodart and Tamsulosin) trial of 2008.
Supersaturation of the urine with respect to a calculogenic compound is pH-dependent. For example, at a pH of 7.0, the solubility of uric acid in urine is 158 mg/100 mL. Reducing the pH to 5.0 decreases the solubility of uric acid to less than 8 mg/100 mL.
Capsule endoscopy is considered to be a very safe method for gastrointestinal tract examination. The capsule is usually excreted with a patient's feces within 24–48 hours after ingestion. There has been a single report of retention of the capsule lasting almost four and a half years although the patient was asymptomatic.
If one removes 1440 mg in 24 h, this is equivalent to removing 1 mg/min. If the blood concentration is 0.01 mg/mL (1 mg/dL), then one can say that 100 mL/min of blood is being "cleared" of creatinine, since, to get 1 mg of creatinine, 100 mL of blood containing 0.01 mg/mL would need to have been cleared.
Oral hydrocodone has a mean equivalent daily dosage (MEDD) factor of 0.4, meaning that 1 mg of hydrocodone is equivalent to 0.4 mg of intravenous morphine. However, because of morphine's low oral bioavailability , there is a 1:1 correspondence between orally administered morphine and orally administered hydrocodone.
Omeprazole may be quantified in plasma or serum to monitor therapy or to confirm a diagnosis of poisoning in hospitalized patients. Plasma omeprazole concentrations are usually in a range of 0.2–1.2 mg/L in persons receiving the drug therapeutically by the oral route and 1–6 mg/L in people with acute overdose.
Duloxetine is acid labile, and is formulated with an enteric coating to prevent degradation in the stomach. Duloxetine has good oral bioavailability, averaging 50% after one 60 mg dose. [9] There is an average 2-hour lag until absorption begins with maximum plasma concentrations occurring about 6 hours post-dose.
