Subject: [ferrethealth] Diazoxide and Pred
To: ferrethealth@smartgroups.com
Someone on another board was asking about diazoxide. I don't know much about it's use or side affects. The person has a hob that is Insulinomic. Operation in March, was put on Pred after the surgery. Says the pred isn't working (don't know dosage, sorry). Says the hob was also put on diazoxide in August.
He says latley he's been noticing fluid retention, a lot of scratching and fur loss on the legs, tummy and scruff area. I mentioned the possibility of getting checked for adrenal. Said the adrenals looked good when surgery was done. I advised to have checked again just to be sure.
He's wondering if anyone knows much about the two drugs working together and any side affects of diazoxide. Actually, any help or suggestions for him is appreciated. I offered my two cents, but I dont know a lot about the drug. It sounds to me (in my uneducated) opinion to be insulinoma and adrenal related more than the drugs itself.
But, like I said...any advice for him is appreciated!! THanks!
