Allergies, Cough & Cold Forums (Page 101)

My rx exp, my dr want vrenew, sill have prsistent interrupting when imgiving talks. Tried other recommnded. Meds,nohing works as efficient. Can i get it somehow without rx, im willing. Topay independntly ## Can i purchaase online without a rx ## Not legally. But I am not sure I understand what type of problem you are having. What is persistently interrupting when you're giving talks? Learn more Tussionex details here. And what type of doctor are you seeing for the problem? Your doctor may not want to keep prescribing it, because in many cases long-term reliance on such a medication makes your body get accustomed to having it and it basically forgets how to handle such issues on its own.

my 3 year old daughter suffers from skin allergies,when she s on montecope ,the allergy subsides but as soon as i stop the drug ,the allergy comes back .she gets eruptions on the back of her knees.i want to be doubly sure if the benefit of the drug outweighs the side effects or is it the other way round in the long term?

blue and white capsule with white beads inside has CPM PSE on it ## This is an over the counter medication. I tried to look it up extensively but the website is currently down. Until it comes back up I can tell you that it is an antihistamine called chloraphrenimate (I never spell it corrcectly), and a decongestant called pseudenephride (again my spelling is probably off.) ## LOL! Gotta love some of the technical drug names, aren't they interesting to try to remember and spell? I always leave the page open in another window so I can refer back to get it right. The dosage is Chlorpheniramine Maleate 8mgs and Pseudophedrine 120mgs. (our favorite reference site is back up! They were probably updating the database last night, it goes down like that periodically when they do!) This is ba...

I was given this by my dermatologist for poison ivy. So far it is not working. OTC anti-itch is helping. ## How long have you been using it? It is a steroid based cream, so it won't work instantly like some of the other topical ointments do. It will require a few days to start having an effect. Learn more Triamcinolone details here. However, many times, poison ivy will just clear up on its own, as long as you are careful not to scratch and dig at, so it spreads.

as a matter of fact when taken with benadryl one can get a euphoria. most doc will make a pain patient wait 30 between meds knowing that Promethazine will magnify the pain meds. ## It doesn't have the same effect on everyone that takes it, even if they combine it with other medications. These are just side effects that are experienced by a small percentage of the people that take it. Learn more Promethazine details here. Are there any questions or comments?

Does hydrocodone and chlorpheniram have the same chemical in them ## The answer to your question is no. Hydrocodone and Chlorpheniramine have completely different chemical structures and are prescribed for different purposes as individual medications. There is however a liquid combination of Chlorpheniramine + Hydrocodone that is marketed as a narcotic antitussive (cough suppressant) and antihistamine combination. The antitussive (codeine) works by suppressing the cough center in the brain. The antihistamine (promethazine) works by blocking the action of histamine, which reduces the symptoms of an allergic reaction such as itch, watery eyes and runny nose.

I wrote the company that makes Drixoral several months ago and they recommended Claritin D. It doesn't work nearly as well as Drixoral. I can't stand the sick feeling or bad allergy symptoms I have without Drixoral. ## I have had success with ClaratinD 12 hour(it has pseudophedrine sulfate) and Wal mart's Equate children's cough & cold DM elixer (it has Brompheniramine maleate) I could not find any product with dexbrompheniramine maleate in it but the brompheniramine maleate seams to work. I have been taking Drixorl Cold & Allergy for over 20 years. When I could no longer get it I was so sick I could not get out of bed most days. Do you think we are addicted to Drixoral? These symptoms sound like what drug addicts go through when they can't get a fix. My husb...

Does Texa 10 trigger weight gain? If so, what other alternative is there that can be used as I have gained nearly 4 kg's in the past 5 months since I have been on it. Thanks. ## These contain the active ingredient Cetirizine, which is an antihistamine that's used to treat allergies and no, it hasn't been known to cause weight gain. Learn more Cetirizine details here. Has anything else changed over the past few months? Have you been eating differently, or not exercising as much? ## Hi, I have also been taking Texa for the past 4 months and I have also put on about 5 kilo's, so I think it must have something to do with the ingredients in the pill itself as I have not been eating any more than usual. ## I've stopped taking Texa a about 2 months ago. I started taking Lor...

I am just wondering what this type of medication is, as far as I can remember it is for gas but I am not sure after this long of a time period, the only markings on the pill is a capital L and a line separator on it and then a 10 and then completely blank on the other side. I tried matching Loratadine with it but it does not match as the numbers on any of those don't match. ## I find it odd that someone else here in the forums also mentioned this pill to be Loratadine, yet I can't seem to locate any specific details on it. Could there perhaps be a different brand of this drug with those markings?

blood tests false positive for methamohetamine ## To help address your concern, Sudafed is known to cause false positives for Amphetamines, Meth and Ecstasy. Referenced from: askdocweb.com/falsepositives.html If you're able to I would ask your doctor if additional testing may be done on the original sample so that a second sample may be taken. Odds are that a different result will pop up if they are using a more sophisticated test. I hope this helps!

hi, I bought a generic version of benadryl and when I was taking a couple today I noticed that a couple of the pills where slightly darker than the rest and when I looked at the numbers they didnt match, c 22 with a blank back is on most of them (which is the benadryl I assume) but then there was also s4 or 54 (hard to tell) with blank back on a couple of them. I dont know if they are the same thing and just different markings or if they are different pills altogether, help? ## From what I could gather, a pink pill imprinted with "C22" is identified as Diphenhydramine hydrochloride (25 mg); whereas I haven't found any specific details whatsoever on a pink pill marked with S4 or 54. The manufacturer of "C22" is said to be: UltraTab Laboratories Learn More: Diphenhydra...

I found a small round pinkish orange pill scored with T 2 3 4 written on it in red on one side and blank on the other side. The writing goes around the pill in a circle counter clockwise. The inside of the pill is white. I want to know what the pill is. ## Hi Lena, Based on the description provided, I found your pill to be Phenylephrine hcl (10 mg); which is used to relieve nasal discomfort caused by colds, allergies, and hay fever. It is also used to relieve sinus congestion and pressure. Phenylephrine will relieve symptoms but will not treat the cause of the symptoms or speed recovery.

Wondering if anyone has any idea what type of medication this is? ## Hello, The closest match I could find has the imprint 013 on a white oval shaped pill; which has been identified as Loratadine-D 12 hour (5mg/120 mg). This is an antihistamine drug primarily used in the treatment of hay fever. NOTE: I could not find a photo of the pill, so at this time there's nothing to determine whether or not the lettering was black on this oval pill. Manufacturer: Perrigo (formerly Clay-Park Laboratories Inc) Do you ever recall using an antihistamine-type medication?

20 and 20 cross imprint on one side and nothing on the other side, tablet type pill ## Actually, I believe the imprint you're looking at is ZC 02, but the tablets are so tiny that it is very hard to make out the markings with the naked eye. The white, round tablet with the crossed score mark and the imprint of ZC 02 contains 25mgs of Promethazine, the active ingredient in Phenergan, it is an antihistamine that's most commonly used to help treat or prevent nausea and vomiting. Learn more Promethazine details here. Can you double check the imprint and let me know?
