Clinical responses may include

Depending on the situation, the clinician may review meal size, hydration, constipation strategy, dose timing, titration, interacting medicines, laboratory testing or whether treatment should be held or changed. This page cannot provide an individualized protocol.

Urgent warning signs: severe or persistent abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, inability to keep fluids down, fainting, marked dehydration, jaundice, allergic symptoms or symptoms of another emergency.

How W8MD can help

W8MD reviews medical history, medication list, treatment response, adverse effects, nutrition, sleep, insurance, cost and patient preference. Recommendations may include continuing the current plan, changing titration, comparing another medication, strengthening nutrition or activity support, pursuing coverage review, or focusing on maintenance. No particular result or prescription is guaranteed.
