Subject: What are the combining forms?

I can't find anything even when I separate it out like the OP said.  I would like to learn what this word means if somebody could help me out.  Should it be xanth with an h instead of just xant? Even trying that, I am still stuck.

Subject: I always hyphenate when combining would put two of the same vowels together sm

Like re-enter or re-emphasize.  Or extra-axial.  Or intra-abdominal.


In another other case, if the meaning is clear and it is not confusing, I do not hyphenate.  Most clients seem to prefer minimal hyphenation.

    Hello!  I need some help for a foreign acquaintance of mine.  He's from the Ukraine, or thereabouts, and has been having memory problems.  His doctor discussed some meds with him, but he can't remember what they were, and now he's too embarassed to ask about them again!!??  I told him I'd see if we could get a list together, in the hopes that one (or more) of them would jump off the page at him, and he'd remember what he and his Dr. discussed.  Help me!

    Sympatholytic drugs
    Subject: Sympatholytic drugs

    A sympatholytic is a medication which inhibits the functioning of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). They are used as antihypertensives.

    They mainly comprise antiadrenergic agents, but also anticholinergics in the case of the nicotinic antagonist, since nicotinic receptors relay the signals of the SNS across the ganglia

    doctor lists a whole list of meds and at the end says "simvastatin 20 mg s/l 60 and and spironolactone 25 mg q a.m."  What does the 60 have to do with anything? The only other thing it might sound like is "simvastatin 20 mg 6:00 p.m., spironolactone 25 mg q .m. but I have never heard a doctor say a specific hour to take a drug and it's really sort of a wild guess, so I would like to hear another opinion.  TIA!
