Hello Doctors and aspiring Doctors! I need help, and I apologize because this will probably be all over the place and include some irrelevant information since I don’t know what’s relevant or not, so I’ll just be spewing everything out. My daughter is 2 years and 3 months old and she weigh 23lb-24l
We have a patient who we've compounded clobazam 1mg/mL suspension for for years and years. It's just crushed clobazam tablets in 1:1 Ora-Plus and Ora-Sweet. We compound 1 month's worth at a time. On file, it says "Expiry: 30 days" but I'm questioning where this comes from. Does anyone have any refer

I’m a tech at cvs. I’m familiar with processing regular TARs, for adults. I’m off today and no other tech on the team understands how to do TARs. Now, SARs for kids, on the other hand, if it’s anything close to TARs, I think I can manage. The SAR in question is for clobazam. My question is, is ther
I have epilepsy, and take Lamotrigine / Sertraline and Clobazam (Clobazam as required). The rash appears to have grown by 75% in the last 24 hours. The rash on the front seems to be directly in front of the area of most pain on my back - which feels like it’s focussed around my shoulder blade. Ca

I would be on google nearly every day asking questions and just thought I had bad anxiety along with my PTSD and ADHD. My head has been off since I was a

I just wanted somewhere to celebrate how good I'm FINALLY doing. I've been in and out of the hospital for three years now for reckless behaviour and all of the mania, and I knew that you guys would appreciate this. After 6 months of not being employed because my doctor said I just couldn't work, I'v
I hope you can understand me, since English is not my first language. So a few days ago I restarted my medication after like years of The Misery™, you know folks, being in a shitty state all day, drinking heavily and doing clonazepam to get away from the pain, losing all interest in things I used to
For context, I’m bipolar one, and had a gnarly manic and psychotic episode when I was 19 which got me hospitalized for two weeks. That’s when I got my diagnosis, and I’m now 23. I’ve now been through boatloads of therapy, have a very comfy and stable home situation, a therapist and psychiatrist I tr
