Beginning GHT

[Guest guest]

Hi! It's been a very long time since I've written. So, it's likely

most of you will not even know our family, but we are in the

database. I stopped writing much when my daughter's PDD/ASD issues

began to supersede her RSS issues, and also pregnancy and birth of

#3. So, here we are she's 6 years old and Dr. H. says we're at the

time when a should begin GHT. I have the medication and am

awaiting instruction on how to administer the GHT from a homecare

nurse. My question is ... how do you know the correct dosage? Is

it on the vials? Or, do I need more specific info from Dr. H?

Thank you,

Diane

Diane,

At your last visit with Dr. H she should have given you a yellow

sheet that tells you exactly how much medication to administer. I'm

not sure what kind of GH you are using but mine comes in a powder

form, it is then mixed with a specific amount of water (also

provided) and then mixed in an exact method. THis mixed solution

lasts us about 2 weeks depending on the doseage. Dr H is very

specific about her amounts so you might want to check your paper

work from your last appointment. I also think the dosing

information is on the individual boxes we receive from Caremark.

Hope this helps,

Pattie
