Instructions for Getting Tylenol Compounded

[Guest guest]

I will be having two wisdom teeth extracted and desperately need advice on

getting Tylenol compounded. What fillers are okay? What should I ask my Dentist

to specify.

Many thanks,

,If you haven't already, phone the compounding pharmacy that you have chosen to use and ask them what kind of capsule they use (gelatin are good and should be SCD legal) and if you can have the tylenol compounded without the use of fillers. Sometimes fillers are needed to help with absorption rates, or other things, and sometimes they aren't necessary at all. The pharmacy would know this though. Also, I recommend you ask them how they need to see the prescription written. This should help eliminate problems before hand. Oh, and maybe Marilyn can chime in, but bromelain and arnica really help with inflammation. She has had lots of surgery and such, and she would be a good person to ask for advice on foods and recovery/pain

management.AmeliaHusband UC 9 years, SCD 19 monthsLDN 3 mg To: BTVC-SCD Sent: Wed, February 3, 2010 1:18:18 AMSubject: Instructions for Getting Tylenol Compounded

My dentist wrote the prescription for acetaminophen, 500 mg. The

compounding pharmacy was able to do it with gelatin capsules, and just

acetaminophen, no fillers.

Find a legal bromelain supplement (I'm currently looking for a

replacement for my VItamin Shoppe brand because they started putting

maltodextrin in it, and I didn't notice... grrr....). Bromelain is really

good for inflammation. (Interestingly, if taken on an empty stomach, it

works on inflammation. If taken with food, it acts as a digestive

enzyme.

Homeopathic arnica is also helpful for pain. The pellets do contain a

small amount of lactose, though. One homeopath of my acquaintance said to

dissolve 7-8 pellets (the usual dose) in a half cup of water, and take

1-2 tablespoons of that. She says it makes it stronger to dilute it (I

don't pretend to understand homeopathy!) and that way, you also get less

lactose. All I can say is that it appears to work!

What I do know is that between the bromelain and the arnica, I shocked

the socks off my surgeon by the minimal amount of morphine I needed after

major abdominal surgery for uterine cancer. (Ran into trouble later

because I forgot to ask about oral pain meds and their composition, and

the sugars in them gave me vicious gut cramps that were worse than the

surgical pain! Kudoes to you for thinking of this in advance!)

I just want to reiterate that homeopathic remedies do not work the same way

conventional meds work. (w)Holistic medicine relies on looking at the whole

body, not just pain in one place. I really recommend people take a look at the

Materia Medica before taking any homeopathic remedies. The remedies can be

adversely affected by certain foods, other remedies and stuff like that. So

it's good to know that, for example, if you drink coffee the remedy might not

work or might make you feel worse. The text will also tell you what symptoms

you should watch out for so you know if you need to stop taking it or take a

different remedy that will counteract it. Just keep in mind that it's not like

taking Tylenol, it's *w*holistic medicine.

Thanks for all your great suggestions. I have a stock of legal Tylenol,

bromelain

and arnica. Surgery is tomorrow. Honestly, I am not nervous about the surgery

but about the havoc that taking antibiotics is going to wreak on my gut.

I am in such a great place right now with virtually no symptoms and I would

hate to have to start from scratch.

Thanks again, guys. your support and advice has meant so much.
