Hello,
Thanks for your query on HCM
"As"per your clinical history is concerned if your [CIWA-Ar score]is greater than 8 then you need treatment like this -
1)Discuss with your treating Doctor about [lorazepam, Clonidine, Vitamin B and Magnesium sulfate]
2)Make a schedule to visit to your treating doctor for physical examinations to ruled out any complications like [Metabolic, Cardiac, Gastrointestinal, Infectious, and Neurological]and medications will be added as per clinical history only.
Hope that helps
