I take 5 daily medications now (if you count calcium and magnesium-oxide that are both prescribed at higher-than-normal dosages). It kinda scares me that I'm taking that in my 30's. What will it be like in my 60's??
Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Singular isn't a steroid; it inhibits the release of leukotrienes, which are released in response to allergens and then cause airway swelling and smooth-muscle contractions.
Basically, it's like an antihistamine, with a very specific target.
Teppy, is it one of those that has to be taken for several days before effetive? Because Doc was making noises like I'd see immediate results.
Now I know why my doctor sighed with relief when she asked me what medications I was taking and I said "nothing". I know it won't last.
ahh allergy season - unfortunatly singular is only being taken by a friend of mine that has an allergy cocktail - singular, a dailly inhaler and clarinex. durring the bad season - add an emergency inhlaer (abuteral) , benadryl, sudefed ,and allegra.
Connie, I suspect it needs to be taken for a few days to get the drug to a steady-state level in your blood. The first few days it might help somewhat, but after a few days is probably when the maximum effect would kick in.

Not Teppy, but my doc told me it would take a few days to a week to see results. And, that has been my experience.
Stupid doctor. He practically told me it was a "take when you need it" drug.
My doc told me it is a "take every day" drug. I've gone off it a couple of times because my prescription ran out. It would take about 4 days for enough of it to leave my system, then I'd start coughing again. I'd get the prescription refilled and it would take about 4 days for the coughing to stop.
I wish my UPS delivery would come. I haven't showered yet, 'cause I've been waiting for it. Just my luck, it'll come at 5pm.
