I've been on Butalb-caff-acetaminophen-codeine for four years. I take them maybe twice or three times a month, depends. Then I take diazepam 10mg, then norco 10-325. I try not to take 3 a day as I don't want to get dependent on them. Then I take amitiza 24 mcg, and Xanax 0.5mg. I try not to take them, maybe one a day. I don't want to get hooked on them either. And lastly, I take phentermine once in the morning. What will this show up as on a drug test? Lately I've been sick throwing up because of the headaches and I sweat bad if I'm outside in the heat trying to do small things. Will these come out from the sweat and can I re-take them after I do get sick and throw up?

my baby 6years old ,suffering sever stomachache can iuse dollopar please suggest me ## Given the age of your child, it would be best to not give them any medication, without their doctor's approval. As explained by the NIH, it is far too easy to overdose a child, or to give them a medication that may potentially be toxic. Additionally, this medication contains Acetaminophen, which is a mild analgesic, but it will not likely do much to help with such stomach pain. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness and headache. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello my name is Shanna. I have some really serious concerns about a failed drug test. Maybe someone can help me. I take quite a few over the counter meds. But here it goes, sinus congestion and pain, nasal decongestant p.e., acid controller, acetaminophen, allergy relief loratadine, and also prescription stool softener and ranitidine 150mg. So can any of these show a false positive for benzos or methamphetamine? Thank u so much for your time.

URGENT: I'm scared and desperate. Please help me. I've been addicted to hydrocodone for 1 year now. My tolerance has simply built almost every day since. I have Major Depressive Disorder and Anxiety. These pills MADE me happy, energetic, and motivated which I hadn't felt in along time. They simply made me feel like a normal person and I was just relieved to be happy again. They have now ruined my entire life. I've lost almost everything dear to me and I'm in debt beyond belief. I've tried quitting multiple times and I have miserably failed each time. I've researched suboxone the past couple hours and I am going to call a doctor tomorrow and try to start that ASAP bc I can't do this anymore, I'm going to kill myself if I already haven't. I'm go...

If the date on the bottle is 2007 are they still good? I found these in a medicine cabinet. My boyfriend had a tooth pulled and not sure if they are ok to use. ## This medication doesn't become toxic, once expired, but it does start to lose efficacy, so it will not work as well as it did, when new and, due to the Acetaminophen in it, it is not safe to double up, thus it would be best to dispose of them and have him obtain a new prescription from his doctor or dentist. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

How much of the red liquid hyrdrocodone 325\5 mg would equal to three 1,000s norcos? ## Each teaspoons equals hydrocodone 5 mg /acetaminaphen 325 mg. ## Hello, Ashley! How are you? What BL has stated is correct, unless the label specifies otherwise. As to the Norco you mentioned, there is no Norco available that contains 1,000mgs of anything. The maximum dosage currently available on the market contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. Norco was actually the name brand for a lower dose of this analgesic combination, so if you were taking it, then you were most likely taking 5/325mgs. The FDA classifies this medication as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth an...

My endodontist prescribed this for pain after doing a root canal. Will this be of help under these circumstances? ## Hello, Ronnie! How are you? This medication is most commonly used to treat migraines and tension headaches. The Acetaminophen in it may help with some pain relief from the root canal, but I doubt it will do much. Have you tried it, yet? The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, nervousness, insomnia, sedation and stomach irritation. ## Hi! I ended up not using the medication. I had very little discomfort after the root canal and just took a couple of Advil. All the possible side affects kinda worried me also. Thanks for answering. Take care! ## Very welcome! I'm glad you're doing well! ## My pharmacist says this will not bothe...

I whent to the hospital last night and they gave me a L 371 pill I don't no much about pills ## The pill was white, oblong L371 Imprinted on it ## Hi Jessica, Generally this type of imprint denotes an over the counter drug, with the letter L followed by three random digits. However I haven't been able to locate any matches on my end. The closest relevant pill imprint has a marking of L374 and this is also a white oblong pill - Containing a combination of Acetaminophen 250mg + Aspirin 250mg + Caffeine 65mg. If it's of any help, the manufacturer who makes these "L xxx" pills is Perrigo Company. You could try contacting them directly for more specific details as to what your pill might be. Does anyone else here recognize this?

Round white pill with a 3 in the middle tabloid at the top and brand at the bottom ## Hi Roya, What exactly do you mean by a "tabloid at the top and brand at the bottom"? The definition of "tabloid" refers to journalism, which makes this even more confusing... Based on your description, the only remote match I've seen is an Acetaminophen (300mg) + Codeine phosphate (30mg) tablet. It's a white round pill with a large (centered) 3 on one side and the back has a score line with "2064" on top and "V" on the bottom. The V is indicative of a product by Vintage (Qualitest) pharmaceuticals. Is that what you mean by "brand at the bottom"? Please post back if have any more details to add.

There is no ip190500. Only P500 on one side only. One side is blank. ## Is this a pink, oblong tablet? If so, it was manufactured by Pliva and they list it as having contained 500mgs of Acetaminophen and 100mgs of Propoxyphene. This medication has been removed from the market, because of the risk it caused of cardiac injury and a high number of overdose deaths, as reported by the FDA. It also carried the risk of being habit forming.

plese send me a picture of this pill Ineed to varify that I have the right pill. ## I don't have a picture to post for you, due to copyright reasons. However, it should be a pale yellow, elliptical/oval shaped with a score line on one side and the imprint of WATSON over 853 on the other side. It contains 325mgs of Acetaminophen and 10mgs of Hydrocodone, the active ingredients in Vicodin, which is a narcotic pain reliever. Learn more: Does that match the pill in question? ## Is there a Watson 853. But white color ## Yes there is,watson removed the yellow dye.

white pill with the letter M in a box on one side and the number 3 on the other side ## Located a match it's Acetaminophen 300 mg and Codeine 30 mg, which is used for the relief of mild to severe pain. To learn more click on the link below... Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do. ## I found a white bill with a 3 on one side and a large M on the other side....no box around the M like with McNeil ## What about a white oval shape with a capital E on one side and 03 on the other side? Help ## It might be a morphine or heroin tablet. But M is written in Morphine Tablets. But I think the lowest strength of morphine is 4mg. 4 is written on a small white tablet. Which comes in silver cover like modalert.

i found an oblong shaped pill on my entertainment center it has IP 500 on 1 side and nothing on the other.anyone have any idea what it is,i am hoping to identify it. ## No, I'm not finding a listing for a tablet with just IP 500 on it in our U.S. prescription drug resources. The IP logo is used by IntraPharm, but on their U.S. tablets there are usually other numbers, with the 500, or 250 and etc. to designate the dosage. Does anyone recognize this tablet? I'm wondering if its an over the counter product that just contains 500mgs of Acetaminophen and is a generic, or store brand of Tylenol. ## Naproxen 500 mg I take this all the time. That's why I knew what they were

hi I been prescribe from my doctor 3202 watson pill for back pain a year ago and just went again to the pharmacy and they give me a 3604 pill they said it was the same dose but I feel like the 3202 pills was helping me more is there a difference between the 3202 and the 3604 ?? ## Hello, Greg! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you're having. They are both the same medication in the same dosage, they've just been manufactured by different companies, Watson and Qualitest respectively. However, there can be differences between one generic to another, the Hatch-Waxman Act of 1984 does permit an allowable difference in the amount of the active ingredients, by as much as plus or minus 20%. This is done with generics to create market competition to help keep prices down. Thu...
