Re: Tics: PANDAS or Diflucan/

[Guest guest]

Hey, ,

One more question --

If a kid is reacting to a dye in the medication, would the behaviors

die down somewhat after a few hours, or would they be pretty much

ongoing? I don't see any particular " spike " in tics and twitches

after taking meds, nor do I see them subsiding as the hours go by.

Hmmmm...well, thanks for your insight anyway, ! LOL...

The throat culture came back today. Negative. I honestly don't think

there's any infection going on; I'm beginning to think he's reacting

to something in those new generic Tenex pills. The tics started right

around the same time he started taking those. Ironic, since I'm the

one who posted so blithely earlier about how it wasn't *that* much

coloring in those new pills and probably " most " kids wouldn't have a

problem with it! :-) Maybe it's a filler or something other than the

coloring, because the Diflucan has never bothered him.

I was able to track down some of the white " football " Guanfacine

tablets from our regular pharmacy's warehouse. Where did you find the

colorless generic Diflucan? I contacted a local compounding pharmacy,

but they said they are not able to compound Diflucan because they are

not able to get it in chemical form.

Donna....if you go to this link you should see a list of all of the

generics available in Tenex, and click on one to see the picture of

it. If you call around you can also verify the manufacturer. We

get the 1mg tablet made by Mylan at Walgreens..its white.
