I was recently hospitalized and given Milrinone 1mg/ml Inj, 50ml through an IV to help my heart pump blood more effectively. It was a tough time, but I'm glad this medication exists. I want to share my experience and discuss the potential side effects with others who might have used it. The medication is typically used for a short duration when the heart is very weak. I also want to talk about the urgent side effects that require immediate medical attention. I understand that some of them are quite severe, like signs of an allergic reaction, severe dizziness, or an abnormal heart beat. Anyone else had a similar experience or family members needing this med? What should we keep an eye on?

I was recently admitted to the hospital for severe acid reflux and ulcers. The doctors prescribed me Famotidine 10mg/ml Inj, 2ml, which is an injection form of the medication. I've heard it can help reduce stomach acid but not much about its injection form. Has anyone else received this injection? Did you experience any side effects? I noticed a slight headache after the first dose, so I'm curious about others' experiences. If you have any insights or advice, please share!
