Mom's neuro earlier today prescribed Ampyra. I'm checking with her urologist but Mom has had one chronic UTI for the past seven years(neurogenic bladder). Mom's 75. I noticed in the scary fine print that Ampyra might cause UTIs, kidney or bladder infections. Anyone out there who is like my mom in that aspect-you're on Ampyra, did your UTI got bigger and nastier?
Also Mom for the past few years has been getting a one day treatment of SoluMedrol (1g) every six weeks. The side effects are temporary (flush face, Chatty Cathy Sydrome) and so he recommended Achtar. Has anyone out there gone from SoluMedrol (as a preventive treatment as opposed during a relapse) to Achtar?
Her neuro was practically giddy writing up the scripts for her. Mom has not had the best of luck with MDs so we are incredibly suspicious of anyone who treats these meds as the latest Must Have Ginzo knife. Thanks in advance for responding.
