My grandaughter is on singulair benadryl albuterol triaminic,is this too many meds together?

Question

She has pnumonia or close to it. Thanks to this medical insurance!! Has been sick for two weeks now.. She is getting better thank God. Bounces off the walls after breathing machine.So darling and kind hearted..
I wonder if too much meds together is not good for her.

She is 2 1/2 yrs old

Answer 1

my two year old on a daily basis is on
benadryl for nausea with his chemo(bet you did not know it was for that to)

singular for his allergies (also can be used for ashma)

albuterol, xopenex, and pulmacort in his nebulizer( its the steroids in the albuterol that is making her bonce off the walls)

and on to of all that he is he is on interferon alfa 2 a chemo 3 times a week
the only thing that might be concerning is that steroids are immune suppressants so it will be easy er to get sick so keep her home and snuggled up hope that she gets better soon

Answer 2

I personally feel more then one pill is not good for someone. One who takes more then one pill is going to have reactions to all the pills together, then the doctors will give more pills to counter act the side effects from that pill. A big cycle....

I have been on this med or that one for a very long time. I am going the herbal way now, and being careful of what I eat, haven't felt this good in years.

Anyhoo these are my thoughts. Have a great day!

Answer 3

The drs had me on way too many meds

When I was on xopenex even one puff a day was too much

Too much albuterol causes high systolic blood pressure

If it was me I would start 1/2 the dosage of albuterol

You didn't say how old she was??

Answer 4

I'm glad to hear your granddaughter is feeling so much better!

You'll have to ask a doctor about this: It is very possible for certain medications to interact badly. But since she's getting over pnuemonia and does seem to be doing better, I wouldn't worry just yet.

claritin
and when sick
pediacare
