Help with medication name-I am stumped - Colleen


Posted: Mar 26, 2010

S/l "des-bella" or "des-billa" or something close to this.  Pt is being seen after twisting her ankle.  Only thing mentioned on PMH is depression, and venlafexine (which I am guessing is supposed to be venlafaxine (generic Effexor).  Any thoughts as to what this could be?  I am stumped!

Are you sure it's a medication? Could they be saying "disability" ? nm - deb

Could it be Savella? - Cathy

Savella is an antidepressant.

Urinalysis has been obtained today suggesting 50 to 100 WBCs, RBCs, many bacteria, with a WBC of 6.9, hemoglobin 14.3, positive nitrites and moderate leukoesterase in his urine.

Name Of A Medication
Oct 01, 2010

Doctor says the patient has heavy bleeding and cramping.  She was prescribed "Listerra" or Listetta?  The doctor has a pretty heavy accent.  which did not help.  The Listerra will not prevent unwanted pregnancy like the Mirena will. So apparently this is not a birth control pill but something to help with the heavy periods and cramping?   Thanks. ...
