Re: Computer problems fixed!----CARNITOR

[Guest guest]

The carnitor also comes in liquid--a wierd cherry flavored. It is not all

that bad. 2 teaspoons is equal to 1000 mg.

I take that now instead of the tablets. It also comes in injectable form

but my gp said that I would be very sore for the amount that would have to

be injected.

Janet, why do you now take the liquid form of Carnitor and not the

tablets? Is there a benefit in taking the liquid or does it really

matter. Just wondering, as I take the tablets. Thanks.

If you take the liquid Carnitor, it tastes better if you mix it in a

juice or other bevarage. I liked it in my apple juice, but it didn't

taste so good in orange juice.

Never thought of putting it in apple or orange juice. I supposed the apple

juice would be apple cherry juice. Not a bad idea as my son does like apple

juice. Because he has mild sumptoms he is doing ok now though on the 250 mg

that comes in each of his 3 carniqgel capsules. He does not like orange

juice though.

Clara,

Like Janet (and others), I also take liquid Carnitor. I need 3000-

6000mg/day, which is an awful lot of tablets. I have gastric

dysmotility, so liquid is much easier for me to assimilate.

The taste is a bit odd, but it's a heck of a lot better than the

original formlation (pre-1990), when it was much more concentrated.

It tasted like a combination of castor oil, sea water and koolaid.

My only problem with the liquid is the sealed childproof caps. I

often need help getting those open.

Theresa, where do you did the liquid Carnitor? Do you need a doctor’s

prescription for it? Thanks.

You do need a prescription and then the pharmacist usually has to order it

from a supplier that does business with Sigma Tau. The pharmacy then usually

keeps it on hand.

Clara,

My Walgreens orders it for me. I generally have to give them about a two

day notice. They figured out for me to take 1000 mg 4 times a day I need 12

of the little bottles. I think they are 4 oz (they are downstairs).

Anyway, it should be on there list of what is available.

The second time I got the prescription filled at Walgreens the on pharmacist

poured all the little bottles into big dark brown bottles. These were a

real pain to deal with. Except as someone else said the child proof caps on

the little bottles are a real pain. So, now they have instructions to just

give me the little bottles. A couple fit in the door compartment of my

refrigerator so one bottle is always cold.

I also got the carnitor from the military mail order pharmacy.
