re: how to stress dose w/ Dex Jan. 19th, 2007 4:29pm
Hi Natalie, sorry you're not feeling well. I really have no experience with dex, but I'll tell you what my understanding is. Normally, I don't think you need to stress dose unless you have a fever or vomiting. However, if you start to feel worse, with nausea, shakiness, just feeling like you are going down hill, then I would stress dose. I would double the dose, still taking it once a day, and continue until starting to feel better, usually 3-4 days. If you need to stress dose for longer, then you would need to wean back down; other wise, just return to your normal dose after 3-4 days. Hope this helps!
