Okay, a rare Friday post for me, but I think it might be worth it.
Little Man is doing fine. We are on Orapred, yet again. Our Allergist is not happy about having to place Little Man on this steroid again in such a short time frame, but it is definitely what is necessary. We expect Little Man to be bouncing off the walls in 2 days time. Oh goody. If we have anymore crazy shots of him they will most definitely be posted. I do not want people to think I have anything personally against Orapred. To the contrary, actually. I have nothing but the highest regard for this medicine. It has definitely kept my little boy alive. It does its job, I just wish we didn’t need to employ its services too often.
As a public service (lofty sounding, I know) I have perma-linked the Drugs.com page on Orapred as well as the Drug Digest, and BioMarin pages. These were the most comprehensive and still authoritative sites I could find on this medicine. I will also be linking this page and my other Orapred posts for all to view at their leisure. It turns out that about 2 to 3 times a week I get a hit on this site from someone searching for Orapred side effects. I do not want to do them a disservice by solely having this site be a cache of anecdotal information about Orapred’s interaction with my little boy.
Here is the Drugs.com information
Here is the Drug Digest information
Here is the BioMarin information
Here are my previous posts about Orapred
Sleep Perchance to Dream
Hospital, Hospital, Jiggity Jig
Orapred
Disharmonic Convergence
Update on Wheezy McAsthma
Little Man vs. Insane Little Man
To recap:
Orapred is a very effective drug for my little boy
I wish we did not have to use it as much as we do
