Hi guys, sorry if I've posted in the wrong part of the forum boards, and even more so sorry for posting on bluelight when other forums are no doubt more suitable for this question. But in my experience, it's the recreational drug users that have more of an idea about drugs than some doctors lol, I really do mean that and it has been my experience.
Anyways to my real question. How long can an oral solution stay good for? I know it depends on the drug and the storage conditions but a rough idea would be great.
It is an epilepsy medication called lacosomide and I have just had it increased from 100mg twice a day to 150mg twice a day (the info of a med increase has not gone through to my GP yet so I am still using 100mg tabs). The epilepsy nurse said to do 150mg at night and 100mg in morning, then the week after go to 150mg twice a day. I don't feel comfortable doing these 50mg jumps though tbh. Can make you dizzy and have headaches. So I would rather do it on my own accord and use an oral solution. To do 125mg twice a day instead and then go to 150 mg twice a day after a week of that. I am getting the same amount of meds overall, and at least it is not fluctuating and possibly making me feel crap to go with it.
Don't worry I will be making sure I get the amount I need. Maths is a strong point for me lol.
Cheers guys
