Generic Name: dimethyl sulfoxide (dye METH il sul FOX ide)

Brand names: Rimso-50, Cryoserv


What is dimethyl sulfoxide?

Dimethyl sulfoxide is used to treat pain and swelling associated with bladder or urinary conditions including cystitis (bladder inflammation or irritation).


This medication will not treat a bacterial or fungal infection of the bladder.

Dimethyl sulfoxide may also be used for other purposes not listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about dimethyl sulfoxide?


You should not receive this medication if you are allergic to dimethyl sulfoxide.

Before you receive dimethyl sulfoxide, tell your doctor if you have cancer of your bladder or kidneys. You may not be able to use this medication, or you may need a dose adjustment or special tests during treatment.


Dimethyl sulfoxide will not treat a bacterial or fungal infection of the bladder. This medication should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment.

You may notice a garlic- or onion-like taste in your mouth while you are receiving dimethyl sulfoxide. This effect may last for several hours after you receive the medication, and you may also sense these odors on your breath or skin. This is a normal side effect of dimethyl sulfoxide and is not cause for alarm.


What should I discuss with my health care provider before I receive dimethyl sulfoxide?


You should not receive this medication if you are allergic to dimethyl sulfoxide.

FDA pregnancy category C. This medication should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. It is not known whether dimethyl sulfoxide passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Before you receive this medication, tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

How is dimethyl sulfoxide given?


Dimethyl sulfoxide is injected directly into the bladder using a catheter or syringe inserted into the urethra (the tube for passing urine out of your bladder). You will receive this medication in a clinic or hospital setting.


After dimethyl sulfoxide is placed into the bladder, you will need to hold the medication in for 15 minutes before emptying your bladder.


If you have severe cystitis, you may be given an anesthesia to numb your pelvic area before you are treated with dimethyl sulfoxide.

Dimethyl sulfate is usually given once every 2 weeks until your symptoms are relieved. Follow your doctor's instructions about your specific dosing schedule.


Your doctor may also recommend other medications to treat pain or bladder spasm. Be sure to read the medication guide or patient instructions provided with each of your medications.


To be sure this medication is helping your condition and not causing harmful effects, your blood will need to be tested on a regular basis. You may also need to have eye exams before and during treatment. Do not miss any scheduled appointments.


What happens if I miss a dose?


Call your doctor for instructions if you miss an appointment for your dimethyl sulfoxide treatment.


What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have received too much of this medicine.

An overdose of dimethyl sulfoxide is not expected to produce life-threatening symptoms.


What should I avoid while receiving dimethyl sulfoxide?


Follow your doctor's instructions about any restrictions on food, beverages, or activity while you are being treated with dimethyl sulfoxide.


Dimethyl sulfoxide side effects


Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.

Tell your caregivers if you feel severe discomfort or irritation when the medication is inserted or while you are holding it in your bladder. This discomfort may become less noticeable over time with repeat treatments.


You may notice a garlic- or onion-like taste in your mouth while you are receiving dimethyl sulfoxide. This effect may last for several hours after you receive the medication, and you may also sense these odors on your breath or skin. This is a normal side effect of dimethyl sulfoxide and is not cause for concern.


This is not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Tell your doctor about any unusual or bothersome side effect. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.


What other drugs will affect dimethyl sulfoxide?


There may be other drugs that can interact with dimethyl sulfoxide. Tell your doctor about all your prescription and over-the-counter medications, vitamins, minerals, herbal products, and drugs prescribed by other doctors. Do not start a new medication without telling your doctor.

Dymelor


Generic Name: acetohexamide (a SEET oh HEX a mide)

Brand Names: Dymelor


What is Dymelor (acetohexamide)?

Acetohexamide is an oral diabetes medicine that helps control blood sugar levels. This medication helps your body respond better to insulin produced by your pancreas.


Acetohexamide is used together with diet and exercise to treat type 2 (non-insulin dependent) diabetes.


Acetohexamide may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.


What is the most important information I should know about Dymelor (acetohexamide)?


Do not use this medication if you are allergic to acetohexamide, or if you are in a state of diabetic ketoacidosis. Call your doctor for treatment with insulin.

Before taking acetohexamide, tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver disease, a thyroid disorder, or a history of heart disease.


Take care to keep your blood sugar from getting too low, causing hypoglycemia. Symptoms of low blood sugar may include headache, nausea, hunger, confusion, drowsiness, weakness, dizziness, blurred vision, fast heartbeat, sweating, tremor, or trouble concentrating. Carry a piece of non-dietetic hard candy or glucose tablets with you in case you have low blood sugar. Also be sure your family and close friends know how to help you in an emergency.


Also watch for signs of blood sugar that is too high (hyperglycemia). These symptoms include increased thirst, loss of appetite, increased urination, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, dry skin, and dry mouth. Check your blood sugar levels and ask your doctor how to adjust your medication doses if needed.


Acetohexamide is only part of a complete program of treatment that may also include diet, exercise, weight control, and testing your blood sugar. Follow your diet, medication, and exercise routines very closely. Changing any of these factors can affect your blood sugar levels.


What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Dymelor (acetohexamide)?


Do not use this medication if you are allergic to acetohexamide, or if you are in a state of diabetic ketoacidosis. Call your doctor for treatment with insulin.

If you have certain conditions, you may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely use this medication. Before you take acetohexamide, tell your doctor if you have:


  • liver disease;

  • kidney disease;


  • a thyroid disorder; or




  • a history of heart disease.




FDA pregnancy category C. It is not known whether acetohexamide is harmful to an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. It is not known whether acetohexamide passes into breast milk or if it could be harmful to a nursing baby. Do not take acetohexamide without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

How should I take Dymelor (acetohexamide)?


Take acetohexamide exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not take the medication in larger or smaller amounts, or take it for longer than recommended by your doctor. Follow the directions on your prescription label.


Your dose needs may change if you are ill, if you have a fever or infection, or if you have surgery or a medical emergency.


Do not change your dose of acetohexamide without first talking to your doctor. Take this medicine with a full glass of water.

Acetohexamide is usually taken once a day, with breakfast or the first main meal of the day. Follow your doctor's instructions.


Take care not to let your blood sugar get too low, causing hypoglycemia. You may have hypoglycemia if you skip a meal, exercise too long, drink alcohol, or are under stress.


Know the signs of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) and how to recognize them. Always keep a source of sugar available in case you have symptoms of low blood sugar. Sugar sources include orange juice, glucose gel, candy, or milk. Severe hypoglycemia may cause loss of consciousness, seizures, or death. If you have severe hypoglycemia and cannot eat or drink, use an injection of glucagon. Your doctor can give you a prescription for a glucagon emergency injection kit and tell you how to give the injection.

Watch for signs of blood sugar that is too high (hyperglycemia). These symptoms include increased thirst, loss of appetite, increased urination, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, dry skin, and dry mouth. Check your blood sugar levels and ask your doctor how to adjust your medication doses if needed.


Check your blood sugar carefully during a time of stress or illness, if you travel, exercise more than usual, or skip meals. These things can affect your glucose levels and your dose needs may also change.


Acetohexamide is only part of a complete program of treatment that may also include diet, exercise, weight control, and testing your blood sugar. Follow your diet, medication, and exercise routines very closely. Changing any of these factors can affect your blood sugar levels.


Your doctor will need to check your progress on a regular basis. Do not miss any scheduled appointments.


It is important to take acetohexamide regularly to get the most benefit. Get your prescription refilled before you run out of medicine completely.


Store acetohexamide at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?


Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, wait until then to take the medicine and skip the missed dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.


What happens if I overdose?


Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine. An overdose of acetohexamide can cause severe hypoglycemia.

Symptoms of severe hypoglycemia include extreme weakness, blurred vision, sweating, trouble speaking, tremors, stomach pain, confusion, seizure (convulsions), or coma.


What should I avoid while taking Dymelor (acetohexamide)?


Avoid drinking alcohol. It lowers blood sugar and may interfere with your diabetes treatment. Avoid exposure to sunlight, sunlamps, or tanning beds. Acetohexamide can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight, and a sunburn may result. Wear protective clothing and use sunscreen (SPF 15 or higher) when you are outdoors.
