Maybe Sildenafil (Viagra)...RxList shows...

that this can also be used for PAH, which makes sense for the text you posted. Re-listen and see if you hear that. Otherwise, I would leave it blank. 


I'm not sure if you're a new MT or not (and I don't want to seem condescending if you're not) but just in case you are, I found this by:


1) Googled 'pulmonary hypertension treatment'
2) 'Sildenafil' grabbed my eye as having the essential sounds that the mushmouth used (LOL)
3) I looked up Sildenafil on the RxList.com medication site to be sure it was used
4) Again, I highly suggest you re-listen to the dictation and be sure that you hear 'Sildenafil'. .


(PLUS, I also learned something new today...that Viagra has other uses -- I absolutely love learning something new).

For your first one, since your other post mentions it is probably for BP, you therefore know the letters are probably HCTZ, right? So at RxList, in the search box, type in *hctz and check out all the combo BP drugs to find the one that starts with a C that is fairly close to your s/l.

For the second one, type in roce* and see what comes up.

problem with rxlist.com

Is anyone else having problems finding drugs on rxlist.com now that they have updated their site?  I can type in *utin and get 116 results none of which are anywhere close to *utin.  Is there a way to fix this or any other sites to try for drug lookups?
