New FDA Approved Treatment for Hyperhidrosis – SLUCare Health Watch
More than 15 million Americans suffer from excessive sweating, called hyperhidrosis and have no idea they have options. Although excessive sweating is not considered to be a life-threatening condition, it can have a profound impact on daily life, making even simple tasks and interactions difficult.

High-blood pressure medication voluntarily recalled
A New Jersey drug maker has voluntarily recalled thousands of bottles of a combination high blood pressure medication over concerns the product could be cross-contaminated with another drug, the Federal Drug Administration said.
The recall covers more than 11,100 bottles of bisoprolol fumarate and hydrochlorothiazide tablets under the brand name Ziac. Testing of reserve samples showed presence of ezetimibe, a drug used for high cholesterol, FDA officials said in a report published online.
The recall level for the drug is Class III, meaning the use or exposure to the product is “not likely to cause adverse health consequences.”
Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Inc., located in Elmwood Park, is recalling the pills, which are in 2.5 mg and 6.25 mg doses.
Experimental vaccine prevents dangerous allergic attack for a year
Mice can be protected from the life-threatening allergic reaction anaphylaxis for at least a year using an experimental vaccine. The hope is that it will work in humans too.
The threat of anaphylaxis constantly hangs over hundreds of millions of people globally, with allergies to foods like peanuts or shellfish one common risk factor. In the UK, for example, around 6 per cent of adults – or 2.4 million people – are estimated to have a clinically confirmed food allergy.
Eating contaminated food, or even kissing someone who has recently eaten a food that makes you react, can cause a spike in molecules produced by the immune system called immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies, leading to swelling of the tongue or throat, difficulty breathing and a drop in blood pressure. This can result in a hospital visit – even if you have an adrenaline auto-injector like an EpiPen on hand to reverse the symptoms. In severe cases, anaphylaxis can be fatal.
