Running Nose Like Water

From vitamins to painkillers, many everyday remedies now come as dissolving tablets – but do they work? Two pharmacists assess some of the latest products to find out By Caroline Jones For The Daily Mail Published: 22:01 GMT, 4 October 2021 | Updated: 15:22 GMT, 5 October 2021 Not long ago, the only effervescent tablet you would find in a medicine cabinet was Alka-Seltzer, first created in the 1930s. But there are now all sorts of treatments that 'fizz' — they generate carbon dioxide gas when mixed with water, helping them to dissolve faster 'so the drug becomes available more quickly when you swallow it than it would if you took a tablet that then had to dissolve in the stomach', as Sultan Dajani, a pharmacist based in Hampshire, explains. The format also allows you to fit in larger doses of active ingredients than in a conventional-sized tablet, adds ...

What Is Qualaquin? Qualaquin ( quinine sulfate ) is an antiparasitic medicine that treats uncomplicated malaria in adults and children over 16 years.

With Kratom's popularity growing day by day, more and more of its users are adopting to certain trends in an attempt to push the boundaries of what it may achieve by mixing it with substances that are perhaps similarly effective. One such trend involves mixing Kratom and Adderall (Amphetamine). If you have experiences with both of these substances, you probably already know that Kratom and Adderall are quite comparable in the sense that they both function as stimulants and have effects on the brain. They are, in fact, some of the most powerful CNS (Central Nervous System) stimulants on the market today. As a result, mixing these substances can lead to outstanding changes in cognitive performance, motor function, and mood. That said, however, it's critical to have a good knowledge of the sorts of interactions that the substances might have before you incorporate them into your regimen. This is because, while some drug interactions may be beneficial, others can be harmful since t...

Just about everyone has experienced a runny nose at some point. This symptom can have many different causes and characteristics. For example, a runny nose may only last a short time in some people and may be constant in others. The color of the nasal discharge can vary as well. In some cases, you may have a runny nose with clear fluid that's constant or persistent. Below, we'll explore some of the causes of a constant runny nose with clear fluid. We'll also address what you can do to ease your symptoms, and signs that it may be time to see your doctor. A runny nose happens due to an increase in the production of nasal mucus. While a runny nose can have many causes, it often occurs due to inflammation of the tissues inside your nose. This is known as rhinitis. The extra fluid that's produced can drain from your nose, down the back of your throat (postnasal drip), or both. While nasal mucus can have a variety of colors, the medical term for a runny nose with thin, clear f...

The CDC recently announced the fifth human infection of influenza A virus subtypes that are commonly spread among pigs, occurring in 4 US states during the 20-21 (October 2020 through September 2021) influenza season. There is no evidence of subsequent person-to-person spread. "These types of infections occur in people rarely, and usually in the context of exposure to pigs, but are concerning because of their pandemic potential," the CDC report indicates. The 5 reported infections of the 20-21 season occurred in Wisconsin (one H3N2v [v designating variant] and one H1N1v), North Carolina (one H1N1v), Ohio (one H1N2v), and Iowa (one H1N2v). As this summer county fair season gets underway, the CDC advises avoiding the close proximity to pigs that can occur in pig barns and livestock exhibits; noting that infected pigs can cough or sneeze droplets with influenza virus. Prevention measures recommended by the CDC include not eating or drinking in proximity to areas with pigs, avoid...

A significant variation in the transition between monotherapy and dual combination therapy for hypertension across countries and by demographic group was observed in a recent cohort study. Investigators noted that since current guidelines do not provide recommendations for the preferred choice of a second agent added to monotherapy as a result of a lack of data from randomized controlled trials, this large variation may be due to a trial-and-error approach. "The heterogeneity of treatment pathways of hypertension across data sources and countries reflects the failure of the field to converge on an effective and consistent treatment-escalation algorithm for hypertension," wrote study author Hua Xu, PhD, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. "It is plausible that not all combination therapies have the same risks and benefits." From 11 electronic health record (EHR) databases, the study consisted of adult patients with prior antihypertensive monotherapy...

When it comes to birth control, there are many different options available. And if you have type 1 diabetes (T1D), you know that everything can impact your blood sugar — and birth control is no different. Some people with T1D notice that hormonal birth control treatments impact their insulin resistance and can often increase their blood sugar. Of course, it's important to work with your healthcare team when choosing the right birth control method for you, but you'll want to start by doing your homework on the various choices. Keep in mind that just because a certain option works for your friend or relative with diabetes doesn't mean it will work for you. Read on to learn more about the various options and things to keep in mind as a person with diabetes. Please note, other than condoms, this article presents birth control options for people with uteruses. A vaginal ring is a dome-shaped flexible device that is inserted into the vagina for 3 weeks before menstruation occurs....
