May 2023 — RX2Go.com archive: practical health and medication guides

Here’s a clear, useful roundup of everything we published in May 2023. If you missed posts that month, this page groups short takeaways so you can find what matters fast — from antibiotics and respiratory care to supplements and simple everyday tips.

Infections, antibiotics and related treatments

Tinidazole for fungal infections: Tinidazole is mainly an antiprotozoal and antibiotic. The post explains why it isn’t a first-choice antifungal and when a doctor might consider off-label use. If you’re exploring options, the practical takeaway is to ask your clinician for evidence and alternatives tailored to your diagnosis.

Levofloxacin and Legionnaire’s disease: Levofloxacin is a strong option for pneumonia caused by Legionella because it works well by stopping bacterial DNA replication and switches easily from IV to oral dosing. The post stresses monitoring side effects and adjusting therapy based on severity and patient factors.

Ipratropium bromide in respiratory care: This piece looks at cost-effectiveness for COPD and asthma. Expect notes on fast relief, dosing forms (nebulizer vs. inhaler), and how it fits into stepwise treatment. Tip: compare device costs and insurance coverage when choosing inhaled meds.

Sucralfate and gastroparesis: Sucralfate forms a protective coating in the stomach. It can ease pain and heartburn but won’t fix delayed gastric emptying. The practical point: use it for symptom relief while working with your doctor on motility-focused therapy.

Tests, cancer care, supplements and everyday health

Chlamydia testing and early detection: The post makes testing simple — who should test, how often, and why catching it early prevents bigger problems like PID. If you’re sexually active and have new partners, set a reminder for screening.

Immunotherapy for rhabdomyosarcoma: A readable look at how immune-based treatments are being tested for this aggressive cancer. The post highlights current strategies like checkpoint inhibitors and adoptive T-cell therapy and notes that trials are ongoing — useful if you’re exploring clinical options.

Perillyl alcohol and Calamint supplements: Two posts on supplements — one on perillyl alcohol’s promising lab results and one on calamint’s traditional uses for digestion and calm. The key advice: use supplements thoughtfully and tell your provider, especially if you’re on meds.

Stroke, balance and coordination: Practical rehab tips are covered: targeted exercises, fall prevention strategies, and when to involve a physiotherapist. Small daily steps often lead to measurable gains in balance.

Baby development, sun safety in pregnancy, enzymes and dental care: Short, actionable posts here. Use music and movement for early motor skills, protect skin with SPF and shade during pregnancy, consider enzyme-rich foods to support detox pathways, and note why aluminium hydroxide appears in some toothpastes.
