Gattex (teduglutide) "Change my life . Went from IV fluids every other night to completely getting off rid of central line and it’s worrisome side effects to still emptying a lot every 2 hours average but beats every 5 mins for 4 years approx until this drug was introduced to me. Answered prayer. Way too expensive unless you find help unless you are very well off."
