Half life wow

Posted by willyee on August 10, 2005, at 3:31:14

I never paid much attention before,but i just noticed most of your meds have average half lives around say six hours,12 hours and so on etc.

Then you come upon parnate and it mentions its half is approx 4 hours,you also have a site or so claiming 2 .

So averaging it out to 3hrs,or even giving it its 4 hour half life,is this not an EXTREMLY short time period for it to be active in ur system per medication standards?

I imagine such a short half life would make a med much harder to be therputic as it would take multiple periodic dosing to keep a adequate amount in u.

Also id imagine split dosing would be more effective than higher singled dosing since ur keep it alive more.

Am i correct on this? Can its shorter half be a factor in it not working too well.

I am scared to try depakote,took one pill and had a fit tonight.Im gonna try to get stablized on the parnate by adding the xanax XR since xanax is a med i know how i react to.God im in a bad place right now.
