Dr. T's Reviews

Tranexamic acid

For von Willebrand disease

2 weeks ago
Works great to stop acute bleeding. It can be applied directly to an open wound too.

Valtrex

For Varicella

2 weeks ago
Great medication for Shingles, Herpes/Cold Sores, or Chickenpox.

Augmentin

For Strep Throat

2 weeks ago
Great medication for Strep Throat or Ear Infections.

Nitrofurantoin

For Urinary tract infection

2 weeks ago
Good first line antibiotic with low resistance. It was used previously for pregnant women with UTIs, so it's soft on your stomach too.

Phenylephrine Hydrochloride Nasal Spray

For Rhinorrhea

2 weeks ago
Good temporary medication, but don't always use it, or you won't be to stop bc your nose will get used to it.

Fluticasone Propionate

For Rhinorrhea

2 weeks ago
This or Nasacort works great.

Sea urchin spine removal

For Sea Urchin Spine Injury

2 weeks ago
Make sure you have the spine removed, or it can cause a lot of problems later.

Warfarin

For Pulmonary Embolism

2 weeks ago
Not really recommend anymore for this condition, there are better, newer medications.

Ibuprofen

For Pain

2 weeks ago
Good go to medication, that everyone can get at the grocery store or pharmacy.

Acetaminophen and Oxycodone

For Pain

2 weeks ago
Don't get started taking narcotics for pain, or you will often times get stuck taking them longer than you want.

Hydrocortisone 1%

For Poison Ivy Dermatitis

2 weeks ago
This is a good over the counter medication, you can get right away at any pharmacy, and help decrease the itching.

Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole

For Prostatitis

2 weeks ago
It's best to start out with medication first, due to side effects of Cipro and Levaquin, unless your urine culture shows you are resistant to this medication.

Buprenorphine

For Opiod withdrawal

2 weeks ago
This has been shown to really help with withdrawal. If you don't have access to care, go to the ER and ask for a prescription. Giving this prescription is part of the American Board of Emergency Medicine’s care updates for ER physicians.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

For Myocardial Infarction

2 weeks ago
If you had a heart attack, this is where you want to start ASAP.

Caffeine

For Migraine headache

2 weeks ago
Helps along with pain medication to decrease your headache.

MMR Vaccine

For Measles

2 weeks ago
If you are fully vaccinated, you can be pretty confident you will not get measles. If you are uncertain, or want to make sure that your vaccine worked, there is a blood test to confirm you are immune.

RICE Treatment

For Groin Strain

2 weeks ago
You definitely need to rest on this one, if you start too early again, it will just come back, and you will delay your recovery.

Accessing your family member electronic health records

For Family Member in the Hospital

2 weeks ago
This can definitely be helpful, but you just need to make sure that you actually understand what you are reviewing, and not assume that you do. Medical records can be very confusing for patients that are not a provider.

Staying at bedside

For Family Member in the Hospital

2 weeks ago
You want to stay at your family member’s bedside, so you can keep track of what is happening, and advocate for their needs. If your family member is in a hospital bed, they won't be with it, as they normally are.

Debrox

For Ear wax

2 weeks ago
This is a good go to treatment for home ear wax removal. The alternative, is to buy the full box ear cleaning kit at the pharmacy.

Mouth Wash

For Dental cavity

2 weeks ago
Rated 5 stars

Cephalexin

For Cellulitis

2 weeks ago
Depending on where you are in the country, this is always a good first choice antibiotic to use. Some areas due to MRSA, you need to start with Bacrtim or Doxy though.

Cerave

For Eczema

2 weeks ago
Great everyday moisturizing cream for Eczema. It does help with itching a bit, because it makes your skin less dry.

Vaseline

For Eczema

2 weeks ago
This works well to create a barrier if you are getting cracked skin with your eczema.

Benzonatate

For Upper Respiratory Infection

2 weeks ago
This is hit and miss if it works for you. It works best for a dry cough, but if you are coughing up a lot, it doesn't work as well, so people have mixed experiences with it.

Vitamin C

For Upper Respiratory Infection

2 weeks ago
Emergen C tastes good, but it doesn't seem to work as well as Zicam at all for me. I would definitely recommend Zicam over this.

Zicam Cough/Cold

For Upper Respiratory Infection

8 months ago
I like both the Zicam Nasal Spray and tablets. If I have the start of a cold, and it's more nasal symptoms, I use the spray. If it's more of a scratchy/sore throat, I use tablets. The key to Zicam is using it right away when you get symptoms, you can't wait, and you need to repeat every few hours.
