The patient is a 75-year-old female with a history of 2. Diabetes , on insulin, congestive heart failure, bilateral occipital CVAs, hypertension, chronic renal insufficiency, coronary artery disease, visual impair with tunnel vision, monoclonal gammopathy, and left upper extremity thrombophlebitis. She was found at home with altered mental status and a fingerstick of 37, which increased to 42 with orange juice and normalized her mental status. She was given 1. Lasix 80 mg p.o q.d. in the morning , 40 mg p.o. q.d. in the evening, 2. Atenolol 75 mg p.o. q.d., 3. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d., 4. Amitriptyline 25 to 50 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n., 5. Multivitamins., 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d., 8. Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., 9. Iron gluconate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., 10. Novolin 34 to 40 units subcu. q.d., 11. Epogen 5000 units subcu. q. week., 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Colace 100 mg p.o. b.i.d., and 2. Metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d. Her NPH dose was cut to 20 units subcu. q.d. with lispro sliding scale q.a.c. and q.h.s., and Metoprolol was changed to Toprol as her blood pressure tolerates. Lisinopril was switched to captopril, then discontinued given her bumping which might suggest thalassemia. She is on iron and Epogen with Prophylaxis: Heparin and H2 blocker. Her minimally needed insulin was 5 units a day and her sugars were well controlled otherwise low. Lasix was decreased to 80 mg p.o. b.i.d. and the x-ray on the day of her discharge showed it was unlikely consolidated lobar pneumonia because of the improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was admitted with hypoglycemic diabetes possibly secondary to infection or logistical and social barriers, and was treated initially with levofloxacin for her right lower lobe pneumonia versus CHF, pleural effusion which decreased only minimally with diuresis of 1 to 2 liters overnight and for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes she underwent a thoracentesis on 2/11/05. Her chronic renal insufficiency was noted with creatinine at baseline of 2.6 and it decreased significantly on this admission possibly because of improved forward flow from discontinuation of her ACE inhibitor. She was on iron and Epogen with an improved hematocrit from the prior admission but no change in her MCV which suggests that she has more than renal disease causing her microcytosis. Her diabetc diet was low sodium, low fat, low cholesterol and prophylaxis included Heparin and H2 blocker. Her discharge medications included 1. Lasix 80 mg p.o. b.i.d., 2. Metoprolol 12.5 mg p.o. b.i.d., 3. Lipitor 10 mg p.o. q.d., 4. Amitriptyline 25 to 50 mg p.o. q.h.s. p.r.n., 5. Multivitamins, 6. Aspirin 325 mg p.o. q.d., 7. Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d., 8. Lisinopril 20 mg p.o. q.d., 9. Iron gluconate 325 mg p.o. t.i.d., and 10. Epogen 5000 units subcu. q. week. She was screened for admission to Jack Nor Medical Center Of where she will go today with intense physical therapy and learning greater independence in her daily functioning. Her pelvic films were negative for fracture. She should be ambulated t.i.d. with follow up with Dr. Rufener when she is able, Lasix dose can be increased as needed for better diuresis, and studies pending include cytology and culture of pleural fluid and follow-up chest x-ray on the day of her discharge.
Is there a mention of of folate usage/prescription in the record
Folate 100 mg p.o. q.d.,
