Whether it's metformin inducing ovulation in women with PCOS, or cimetidine being used for plantar parts, what's a bizarre off-label use for medications that you know?

I've read some studies of Cimetidine curing Molluscum Contagiosum, at 30-40 mg/kg/day, and usually they cap the dosage at 1200 mg.

33, woman in good health. I've had a plantar warts on the bottom of my feet since I was in high school. One in particular has been so painful and large that it's altered my gait. 20 years of burning, acid, freezing, tea tree oil, duct tape, praying to a variety of patron saints of skin maladies,

I've seen my primary care's PA and she thinks the sore throat is probably from dehydration (thanks cimetidine), but referred me to an ENT doc

I saw my primary care doctor two weeks ago (primarily for something else, follow up after lymphadenitis from a pneu

Static is the bane of my life recently. In my country and town, humidity sits at a steady 0% for ~300 days a year. The end result is that every powder - especially cellulose, progesterone, cimetidine and others - likes to stick to EVERYTHING, making it hard to pour, mix and measure. I'm wondering if

... And that famotidine and nizatidine are both on very short supply. I checked the FDA recall site and didn't see any updates besides the one yesterday about two manufacturer's recalls.

While proton pump inhibitors are generally the main line of treatment for gerd these days, I'm curious about how the h2 antagonists like ranitidine, nizatidine, etc. compare to one another in terms of side effects and the prevalence of those effects. I would appreciate any of your thoughts on this a
