Diarrhea dehydrating

Magnesium-containing antacids—severe diarrhea, dehydration, and hypermagnesemia (nausea, vomiting, hypotension, decreased respirations)... 

Signs and Symptoms Characterized by sudden onset of high fever, lethargy, anorexia, stiffness, and incoordination (ataxia). Pulse and respiratory rates are increased. Coughing, diarrhea, dehydration, with frequent urination (pollakiuria) may develop. Prostration and death may occur in a few hours or days. Subclinical cases may be common. 

Gastrointestinal effects in six pregnant cows that were administered 67 mg/kg/day of FireMaster BP-6 in capsules for up to 60 days included diarrhea, dehydration (possibly a result of the diarrhea), and... 

Lasix is very strong and was reported to cause diarrhea, dehydration, dizziness, muscle cramps, circulatory disorders, vomiting, circulatory collapse, fainting, and cardiac arrest. It was considered far more safe to start with 20-mg and repeat every 4 hours than to use higher dosages for a shorter period of tome. Over 40-mg per dosage increased side effects dramatically ...

A 68-year-old man developed diarrhea, dehydration, and atrial fibrillation 4 months after liver transplantation. He was taking tacrolimus (blood concentration 13 ng/ml) and was given a continuous infusion of diltiazem for 1 day followed by oral therapy. Three days later he became delirious, confused, and agitated, and the blood concentration of tacrolimus was 55 ng/ml. His mental statns gradnally improved after withdrawal of both dmgs. 

The clinical effects after overdose include anorexia, diarrhea, dehydration, hyperexcitment, tachycardia, tremor, weakness, seizures, and death. 

NSCLC patient with a 40% reduction in undefined measurable disease. A weekly schedule has also been evaluated and an MTD of 245 mg/m2 defined (167). Thirty patients were treated for a median of 6 weeks, and grade 3 DLTs included vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, and transient elevations in creatinine and transaminases. As with the previous schedule, 80% FT inhibition in PBMCs was noted at the higher dose levels (168). In addition, FT inhibition by a mean of 80% was observed in 14 posttreatment tumor samples at 2 h and persisted at 30% inhibition at 24 h. In some tumor samples, assessment of apoptosis by a DNA break labeling assay revealed induction of apoptosis after dmg exposure, for example, a refractory breast cancer patient with a 5-month minor response. Two other schedules (169, 170), weekly for 4 weeks followed by a 2-week rest and oral twice a day for 14 days every 21 days, have been evaluated with no objective responses reported. 

An understanding of osmosis and the intestinal absorption of salt and glucose forms the basis for a simple therapy that saves millions of lives each year, particularly in less-developed countries. In these countries, cholera and other intestinal pathogens are major causes of death of young children. A toxin released by the bacteria activates chloride secretion by the intestinal epithelial cells into the lumen water follows osmotlcally, and the resultant massive loss of water causes diarrhea, dehydration, and ultimately death. A cure demands not only killing the bacteria with antibiotics, but also rehydration— replacement of the water that is lost from the blood and other tissues. 

C. Diarrhea, dehydration, hypermagnesemia, and hypernatremia resulting from co-administered cathartics, especially with repeated doses of charcoal and cathartics, or even after a single large dose of a premixed, sorbitol-containing charcoal product.

Underlying conditions such as PEM and other nutritional disorders, diarrhea, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalance, infections and parasitic infestations, and other conditions must be treated appropriately. 

Supportive teeatment may be needed to correct the effects of diarrhea, dehydration, coagulopathy, arxl oral or dermal necrosis. 

Tube feeding—When concentrated liquid formulas are fed too rapidly to sick people by stomach tube, there may be diarrhea, dehydration, and losses of both the minerals which are present in the formulas and those which are secreted in the digestive juices. The causes of these undesirable effects are (1) reduction in the secretion of the digestive juices which would normally dilute the formula, due to the illness and the unnatural means of feeding and (2) the drawing of water from the intestinal wall by the formula, so that a strong laxative effect is produced. 

Gastrointestinal (Gl) syndrome can result after acute exposure to 10 Gy or less. The radiation exposure causes destruction of the epithelial lining of the GI tract, and Gl syndrome is characterized by lethargy, diarrhea, dehydration, degeneration of bowel epithelium, and death in 10-14 days (NCRP, 1989). The other syndrome associated with acute exposure is hematopoietic syndrome, which may present days to weeks after total body radiation exposure ranging from 2.5 to 5 Gy. The hematopoietic syndrome is characterized by granulocytopenia, thrombocytopenia, hemorrhage, infection, and electrolyte imbalance. Even lower doses (1-5 Gy) can cause hematopoietic syndrome, which results in what...
