APRACLONIDINE HYDROCHLORIDE OPHTHALMIC SOLUTION vs GUANFACINE

Like eye drops. Latanaprost is “approximately 80 drops of solution per 2.5ml”. Our system calculates DOS based on that. Makes sense. If you account for 0% human error. I understand days of supply calculations/why they’re there/why they matter blah blah blah. But sometimes it’s just too strict. Examp

New grad here. I have been staff at a retail chain for 2 months now and have a few questions that seem to keep re-appearing and wanted to get some opinions from y’all. 1. The pharmacist that used to be staff at my store has trained all the technicians that every ophthalmic solution/suspension must

I've always used 20 drops per mL, but when I was on rotation, I remember seeing a chart that was created by an insurance company with all different medications and the number of drops per mL. Just trying to avoid audits, and apparently 20 drops per mL doesn't always fly. Thanks!

I found some nasal spray at Walmart and since I got it I've used it 2-4 times a day depending how bad my nose got. I didn't realize until after a week or so that it said not to use more than 3 days in a row and only twice a day max every 10-12 hours. I'm just wondering if there's any serious side

Having ADHD fucking sucks. It’s not quirky, fun, or something that needs to become an entire personality. I’ve seen so many TikTok accounts that are all just “here’s 5 reasons you have ADHD” and then they base everything they discuss as mundane nonsense that doesn’t even pertain to ADHD. “You migh

Let me tell you a story. I’m a dad with ADHD, my oldest son has ADHD inattentive type, the middle son has ADHD hyperactive type, the baby is a baby, but we already have a sense she’s got something going on already. In the mornings, I serve up morning meds for everyone. A vyvanse for dad, fluoxetine

My son is profoundly autistic and very minimally speaking with a host of comorbidities, including ADHD combined type. We tried several stimulant formulations. He couldn't sleep. He became aggressive. He has used clonidine + guanfacine before bed to sleep. Today he started his second dose of clonidi

Decided three years ago to pursue a PhD in a discipline I love after finally took my ADHD seriously. Pursuing a doctorate was something I just didn't think I could do because of how my brain handles unstructured tasks (like writing a dissertation). Turns out with the right drugs (guanfacine + wellbu

I haven’t been able to sit down and read literally just a CHAPTER of a book in like 6 years. I crave just…. Sitting down and focusing on one task. Reading a book. Doing a puzzle. Cleaning my room. For reference I am diagnosed with adhd-c and on Sertraline and Guanfacine. I been on both for like?

I can’t believe nobody has ever recommended this drug to me before. I always struggled with stimulants as there would be days where I would have breakdowns or hyper focus on the wrong thing, couldn’t sleep.. etc. I’ve been taking guanfacine and bupropion for about a month and I REALLY NOTICE a diffe

Maybe it’s just me but I’ve gone through a gauntlet of medications (Adderall, Focalin XR, Ritalin, Metadate, Vyvanse, Dexedrine, Concerta, Wellbutrin, Strattera, Guanfacine) and each time I’ve ended up disappointed in them. At best, they give me a bit of energy/wakefulness and make it slightly easie

This is really long. I’m tired and frustrated, sorry. So I just got off my 11p-7a in the emergency department. We have this one doc, LC, who I’m pretty sure is out to get me. Does this sound dramatic? Yes. Do I actually think it’s true? I’ve been trying to convince myself I’m crazy, but I actually
