Journal ArticleDOI
Gabapentin for refractory chronic cough: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
Nicole M. Ryan,Nicole M. Ryan,Surinder S. Birring,Peter G. Gibson,Peter G. Gibson,Peter G. Gibson +5 more
TL;DR: The treatment of refractory chronic cough with gabapentin is both effective and well tolerated, and positive effects suggest that central reflex sensitisation is a relevant mechanism in refractor chronic cough.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pregabalin and Speech Pathology Combination Therapy for Refractory Chronic Cough: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Anne E. Vertigan,Anne E. Vertigan,Sarah L. Kapela,Sarah L. Kapela,Nicole M. Ryan,Surinder S. Birring,Patrick McElduff,Peter G. Gibson +7 more
TL;DR: Combined SPT and pregabalin reduces symptoms and improves QOL compared with SPT alone in patients with CRC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adverse reactions to snake antivenom, and their prevention and treatment.
TL;DR: Doctors will have to depend on pharmacological prophylaxis, where the search for the bestProphylactic agent is still on-going, as well as careful observation of patients receiving antivenom in preparation for prompt management of acute and delayed reactions when they occur.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cough reflex sensitivity improves with speech language pathology management of refractory chronic cough
Nicole M. Ryan,Nicole M. Ryan,Anne E. Vertigan,Anne E. Vertigan,Sarah L. Bone,Peter G. Gibson,Peter G. Gibson +6 more
TL;DR: This is the first study to show that speech language pathology management is an effective intervention for refractory chronic cough and that the mechanism behind the improvement is due to reduced laryngeal irritation which results in decreased cough sensitivity, decreased urge to cough and an increased cough threshold.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tramadol overdose causes seizures and respiratory depression but serotonin toxicity appears unlikely
TL;DR: Tamadol overdose was associated with a significant risk of seizures and respiratory depression in more severe cases, both which appear to be related to the ingested dose.
