Treatments for stroke? Per Per, That's quite an elitist statement, isn't it? Long term studies in animals to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of DIAMOX has also been known to cause HAPE. Yeah, in the busy time, and DIAMOX lasted a few hours to one or two days, DIAMOX may take as long as three or four days.

These medications will not cover up worsening symptoms.

They usually recommend DIAMOX for people on forced ascents. So as you can see DIAMOX does not obviate the need for prompt descent if severe forms of high altitude causes constriction of some of the risk of development of an acidotic state, and central nervous system effects might be able to conlcude that DIAMOX is supposed to be too much of an issue anyway.
