What is the medical term meaning liver failure?

Renal failure (although I'm pretty sure kidney failure would suffice). To be honest, as a medical term Kidney Failure is "medical" enough. If you want to be a bit more medical then you would want to say Renal Failure. And then depending on whether it's acute or chronic then you would want to say Acute Renal Failure or Chronic Renal Failure. End stage renal disease (ESRD) is another term. And just in case you're interested, it used to called Renal Insufficiency but that term is not really used anymore.


What urine tests are done to check for renal failure when gentamycin is given?

Any of them a Mid stream urinalysis would probably be the most common one used, where only the middle of the urine is tested, in other words when you urinate the first lot of urine will contain microorganisms therefore will be inaccurate, and also a normal urinalysis would show for renal failure such as high protein, but to be completely sure would to have a blood test and if you creatine levels are high, then you will be on your way to renal failure, although urea being high even when the creatinine is normal will be a indicator to your kidneys starting not to filter as well as it used to be. Drink plenty of water whilst on gentamycin because it is a strong antibiotic and could cause renal failure in patients already with renal dysfunction, also the Dr may give you bio-carbonate for your kidneys, hope that was helpful.

The medically accepted maximum dosage for bisoprolol is 20 mg per day. Typically dosing should begin at 5 mg/day and be titrated (slowly increased) for desired effect. Patients with renal (kidney) failure or insufficiency as well as liver disease often will start at 2.5 mg/day then titrate to desired effect. This medication is an antihypertensive or antianginal medication and care should be used when discontinuing.


Why did the doctor give you the anti-depresssant dextron when you went for skin itching problems and is it safe to take it or not?

What do you mean? There is no antidepressant called Dextron and as far as I know skin itching is a fairly common side effect of taking many anti-depressants. You may have mis-spelled the medication. Prefix DEX tells me it is probably a cortisteroid of some sort, commonly used for skin conditions such as itching. Ask your pharmacist for a printout of your medication that should answer all your questions.
