byetta and liver next question
i hope you all will be patient with me since i am new to this drug. last
night, i read in my local paper about how tylenol can cause liver failure
due to overdose (mostly accidental) like from taking tylenol for pain and
then taking another drug like a sinus or flu medicine that also contains
tylenol but not in the name (think they cited alka seltzer plus or something
like that).
but i was wondering if byetta slows the rate at which drugs and food leave
the stomach (am i even correct about this) then would one have to watch how
they take drugs like tylenol? or even an antibiotic? would it slow down the
half time (is that the correct term) of drugs?

the byetta people tell you not to take tylenol with in
i think 2 hours of the byetta because it does keep the
tyelnol from from absorbing. they don’t tell you not
to take it though, just be mindful of your timing

well, lovastatin is one that has decreased function if you take it with
Byetta. So I switched to lipitor.

I happen to feel that the degree of a person’s intelligence is directly
reflected by the number of conflicting attitudes she can bring to bear on the
same topic.
