Capoten--high blood pressure and congestive heart failure. Metformin--increasing insulin sensitivity. Pizotifen--an antihistamine used by BBers to increase appetite. T-4/T-3--for thyroid hormone deficiency; used by BBewrs to increase metabolism. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

TRUTH, The Capoten is used at night for its (alleged) GH increase. In the real world your response is 100% correct. Metformin: This drug is not really dealing with insulin sensitiviy, its a very strong glucose disposal agent that doesnt cause hypoglycemia. BB'ers and dieting athletes use this as a little trick when they become "carbo whores" and go berzerk on a pot of rice or pasta.It will help drive the glucose into the muscle cells. NOW drugs like the late REZULIN and new generation drugs for NIDDM ( Non insulin dependent dibetes mellitus) like Actos (Takeda pharmaceuticals) and Avandia are drugs that increase the SENSITIVITY OF INSULIN. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
