Sinequin came to mind. I have heard this pronounced sin-a-quin. It is an

antidepressant, and I see that he is on ProSom, a sedative, so perhaps he

also is on an antidepressant even though it is not listed in his history.

Might you be hearing Accupril?

Per MDR 4.4:

Drug Name: Accupril 10 mg Tablet

Generic Name: Quinapril HCl/Mag Carb

Information Title: QUINAPRIL - ORAL

Uses:Quinapril prevents certain enzymes in the body from constricting blood

vessels. This helps to lower blood pressure and makes the heart beat stronger.

This medication is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure), heart

failure or help diabetics prevent kidney problems.

Thanks, everyone. Doc probably does intend Accupril. I *knew* Accutel

sounded familiar, but I kept coming up empty. That was reason enough to

sneak into the kitchen for a snack, right?! And once again, you guys came

through. Happy New Year Everybody!

Could this be it? 5-hydroxytryptamine Don't have a bunch of time to

really see if it fits though, so make sure you research :o)

It may be a stretch but could it be Diflucan (fluconazole)? This is

commonly used for Candida infections.

Terry, That would be Iberet, MG

>>> 01/29/01 09:57PM >>>

The patient has acute renal failure, hypoglycemia, diabetes mellitus,

hypertension, metabolic acidosis, and nephrotic syndrome.

In the list of current medications he says

s/l **Abert** with folate one tablet p.o. q.d.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I can't find a drug that sounds like this ... it is a partial guess on my

part as the pronounciation is unclear. Maybe with the background someone

will recognize the drug. TIA. Bev

She comes in for check-up on her hypertension, lung cancer status

post-partial pneumonectomy. She is doing very well, not smoking, she has

only gained 3 lbs. She is a little lonely by herself, but able to deal with

that.

O: Lungs are clear with good air movement. Heart regular rate and rhythm.

No edema in her extremities except for her left ankle which is chronic per

her stroke. Much less disability in her left hand. In general she is doing

very well although she seems a little down today, but she is still on her

Zoloft and we will see her back in three months.

P: I refilled her s/l TEN-OR-ILL, it was the only thing she was low on.

Jan, I'm not positive about the first, but it could be Noroxin, which is a

broad-spectrum antibiotic. The second is probably Zyprexa and the next Demadex.

Sorry, I don't recognize the eye drop, but it may be Xalatan, which is

pronounced many different ways as most docs have no idea how to pronounce it.

Okay, here goes!!! :-)

The meds:

Lor-vox may be Luvox, which is an antidepressant.

Vah-prexa may be Zyprexa, which is an anti-psychotic.

Demonex is Demadex, which is a diuretic.

Zal-temp is Xalatan eyedrops.

Hope this helps!!!

I found levalbuterol which is an bronchodilator. I couldn't find anything

else similar in the Quick Look drug book.

The patient is an 80-year-old white man admitted to this

hospital because of hemoptysis. The patient underwent AFBs

which were negative times three and underwent cytologies

which were negative times two, the third is pending at

the time of this dictation. The patient also had AFBs that

were sent in from the state that were done six weeks ago

that were negative without any acid-fast bacillus. The

patient had a chest x-ray with no acute processes and had

C-reactive protein that was negative. The patient was

initially treated with IV s/l **maxithinin** for four and

one-half days prior to discharge because the patient had

grown out negative bacillus in the Gram stain which proved

to be Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Bev, That would be salsalate, an anti-inflammatory. Margaret

Any ideas what this drug is? Thanks. Bev

DJD. We will restart s/l " Southalate " 750 mg 2 tablets b.i.d. that she has

been using only infrequently and see if that might help with some of the

neuropathic-type pain she is having in her legs as well.
