dental or surgical drug not good for HD
July 30, 2017 09:52AM
There was a post years ago that told of a medication that should not be used for HD patients. It was something that may be used at the dentist office to numb or in surgery. I can't remember the name of this. Does anyone remember? Thank you

Yes I think Eric R is right it's isoflorine (sp?). I think it's an older anesthesia, but good to know that it's not a good one for HD patients. I have it listed as my husband's "allergies" along with ritalin and reglan. Not sure if these are spelled correctly!
