MEDICATIONS

ONE THING I RECOMMEND TRYING FOR SYMPTOMS.

CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR FIRST, I AM NOT A DOCTOR.

BRETHINE (terbutaline sulfate)- 5mg tablets and break them in half. It relaxes the smooth muscle in your gut and reduces the pain from the cramping caused by the reactions in the digestive tract.

FOR THE CONDITION ITSELF:

Xolair-by injection. Click here to see my Xolair page.

Budesonide-A corticosteroid that is not systemic, also now available as ENTOCORT.

Beclomethasone and corn oil for EE.

Flovent for EE- BUT NOT INHALING you take the puff but don't inhale, you swallow it at bedtime

PREDNISONE OR DELTASONE ETC. -CORTICOSTEROID

ACCOLATE-ATHSMA MED. Works for some not for others

ZYFLO-SAME RESULTS AS ACCOLATE -ATHSMA MED.

SINGULAIR-I HAVE HEARD FROM SOME PATIENTS THAT THIS HAS HELPED. IT HAS NOT HELPED ME

GASTROCROM-MAST CELL STABILIZER ETC.

KETOTIFEN-ANTIHISAMINE

BROMFED-ANTIHISTAMINE THAT HAS RECENTLY HELPED TWO CHILDREN

CYPROHEPTADINE-AND ANTIHISTAMINE

FOR SIDE EFFECTS OF PREDNISONE

NEXIUM-ANTI-ACID

PRILOSEC-ANTI ACID OTC AND PRESCRIPTION

ZANTAC-OTC AND PRESCRIPTION
