white oblong pill 110 on one side other side upside down v with a small p under v ## I'm trying to locate a match for this pill and came across something that might be it. Is there a score line on the same side as 110 by chance? The upside down V you are referring to, looks like a triangle; and at the dead center base/bottom line of this triangle there is a circle that could appear to be a letter. Does this sound right to you? If it does, I located the pill to be Drihist SR; which contains a combination of Chlorpheniramine (8 mg) + Methscopolamine (2.5 mg) + Phenylephrine (20 mg). This medication is used to treat rhinitis and nasal congestion. Please post back if you have any other questions or comments to add about this being your pill.

what is the best medicine for conteniuos snizzing? ## Have you consulted a doctor? The treatment options for sneezing are going to depend on what is causing the problem. It could be from a cold, other virus or from allergies. If it is from allergies, it may require the regular use of some type of allergy medication, such as an antihistamine: Is it happening at a certain time of year? Or when you are around certain plants, or dust?

However, it should only be used with a doctor's approval. If you are underweight, it is very important that you consult a doctor to discover the root cause, however, you also may just naturally be meant to be small, due to genetics and there may be nothing you can do to change it.

I have an extreme case of HAY FEVER can I take double dose OK? ## This contains the active ingredient Fexofenadine, an antihistamine, in a time released formulation. And I wouldn't suggest doubling up on it, unless your doctor specifically tells you to do so. Though it seems like a safe medication, you could still harm yourself by overdosing on it. If your allergy symptoms are that severe, you may need something that isn't time released and should discuss it with your doctor. Are there any other questions?

What are the ingredients? I have allergies to ALL fish oils, soy, and corn. ## In most cases Vitamin D2 is the only ingredient in a Vitamin D2 supplement, since it is synthetic. Typically, soymilk is fortified with vitamin D2 (but not the other way around, if that makes sense). Vitamin D2 is manufactured through the ultraviolet irradiation of a substance called ergosterol that comes from yeast. Vitamin D2 is vegan and according to my research, corn, soy, and fish oils should not be present in Vitamin D2. All in all, It really just comes down to reading the nutrition label on the bottle and checking the list of ingredients of any particular brand. But in this case you don't have to worry about "most" brands. I say "most" because sometimes you will find random ingredie...

WHAT IS IT FOR ## I need a list of OTC meds that are equivalent to R-Tanna. Thanks. ## What is R-Tanna (chlorpheniramine and phenylephrine)?

The removal of the drug has nothing to do with the drug addicts making illegal drugs from it. The drug was made before 1962 and fell under the FDA grandfather clause so it did not need FDA approval. So the drug was actually an unapproved drug being sold in the US. Recently, the FDA has cracked down on the sale of unapproved drugs and ordered it off the market with a list of hundreds of other drugs. As this drug worked perfectly for me also, I wish the maker would go ahead and submit the NDA and get it back on the market. Some of the companies that had unapproved drugs were taking this route. ## Well, I suppose we should all write to the FDA as well as call them. Let's see, there's those pesky "Representatives". So, can it be ordered from Canada? In the past, it was very ...
