OTC Flu Medications with Namenda

[Guest guest]

DS(alomst 6 years old) is down with a flu. Has very high fever and a horrible

sore throat. I was wondering whether I could give him some theraflu but the

label said it is not safe to give it with a Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitor (MAOI).

He gets Namenda and Lamictal and I don't know whether they contain MAOI. Can

anyone tell me which OTC flu medications and cough syrups are ok to administer

along with Namenda and Lamictal?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Arpita.

I'm so sorry your son has the flu. I wish I knew the answer to your question.

Perhaps you could call the doctor? In the mean time, I recommend high doses of

Vitamin D3 (I would do more than 10,000 IU's and give it to him with fat like

avocado or fish oil because it is fat soluble and better absorbed with a fat

source). I would also suggest Vitamin C, Zinc and Oil of Oregano. I hope he

feels better soon. Also, if he has a very high fever, this may be an emergency

situation. Please call the doctor.

Arpita, -- if you don't know, call. I wish I knew, I would tell you - sickness

is awful...positive thoughts your way...

in the meantime...

My Jimmy had a high fever last week, and I put a 2 X 2 Patch of 2% iodine in

between his shoulder blades, and that seemed to work on the fever(and I also put

him in a bath)...lots of fluids. Coconut water is great for electrolytes (I

think it tastes like crap, so I do 1/2 pineapple juice and 1/2 coconut water

plain O.N.E, brand)

Sore throat use colloidal silver (spray) in throat, and this will sound weird

and odd, real salty potato chips. The salt helps with the sore throat. (and

it's an anti-bacterial) -- if you are low ox, I am not sure what to substitute.

Does he like chicken soup? Things like garlic, onions, chicken, carrots and

celery (and little fun rice pastas) with a lot of salt helped my little guy. He

couldn't taste how strong it was...

Today he's got a little cough, but he was out and playing...

If you juice, carrot/celery/fennel/apple is a good one. Hang in there...

Arpita,Namenda balances GABA and glutamate. I don't think it qualifies as an MAOI. But please ask the doc. If you haven't called yet and it's out of hours, just call his answering service. That's why they have them :-)

PS How is your son doing on Namenda?

DS did show some benefit from Namenda but not a whole lot. Nothing's been a WOW

for us.
