Allergies, Cough & Cold Forums (Page 22)

Can I take Duro-tuss Cough Liquid with Staphylex (flucloxacillin) 500mg that I'm using for a skin infection? ## Hello Wally, I hope you are having a wonderful day. According to DailyMed neither Staphylex or Flucloxacillin list each other or their active ingredients as having negative interactions, however, they do state that you should consult your doctor if you plan to take any additional medication. As a general rule of thumb it's better to be safe than sorry. I hope this information helps.

I was on Subutex for over a year and a half then I lost my doctor. When I found out I was pregnant he put me back on subutex. After I had my daughter he took me off subutex and put me on suboxone. Within a couple hours of the first dose my skin became red and blotchy. I couldn't stop scratching at myself so he prescribed Benadryl for an allergic reaction... I continued to take them for a month and a half.. I started getting horrible migraines and nausea, and now within an hour hour and a half of taking the pill I'll throw up.... Every time. I have spoken with my doctor about these symptoms..He tells me its not physically possible to be allergic to Suboxone and that if I'm allergic to it then I must be allergic to Subutex as well. But I never had these issues with the Subutex...

Just recently I complain to my doctor about my allergies, he put me on loratadine 10 mg once a day. It has been brought to my attention by my son, that I am eating way more than usual. We were just recently at an all-you-can-eat buffet and he looked at my plate and said man mom you sure are eating a lot, not that it's a bad thing I'm just saying normally you be done in like 10 maybe 15 and you're almost done with that whole plate. And it made me really take a step back and analyze how much I've been eating lately. In doing so I realized that my appetite has increased double if not probably triple, because not only do I this medication, but I also take three or four medications that suppress my appetite so I know he is right. In researching I thought the corporate was my ...

As a long time sufferer of GERD with Barrett’s Esophagus, I have been taking Tussionex since 2008 as the medicine of last resort to control severe bouts of heartburn based on a study reported in the World Gastroenterology Journal (ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PMC2689423). My gastroenterologist has provided me with a prescription for the medication for some time; however, after the recent passage of a new law in New Jersey to help control the abuse of opioid prescriptions for the treatment of pain he has become reluctant to continue the providing me with a prescription for Tussionex. I would like to find out if the primary ingredient of Tussionex (hydrocodone) is considered a Schedule II drug under the definition provided in the New Jersey Controlled Substances Law (njconsumeraffairs.gov/Statu...

Are any of the meds with same formula as Drixoral available anywhere? (Desihist SA, Dexaphen SA, Dexophed, Disobrom, Disophrol, Dixaphedrine, Drexophed SR, Drixomed, Drixoral, Duomine) Is the effect of Brompheniramine Maleate the same as Dexbrompheniramine Maleate? If so perhaps, Lodrane D-24 will work. Has anyone tried it yet? I'm fighting nausea, popping ears & wheezing while waiting for my pharmacy to get some. I'm so relieved to find I am not alone in only finding relief with Drixoral. Over the years, especially recently, I have tried others, but none do the job. Anyone having success with a substitute? ## I have not found a subsitute for Drixoral that works either. I was glad to know that I too was not the only person suffering from allergies that only Drixoral seemed t...

I always found Actifed to be the only cold medicine that worked for me. Now I cant find it at any of my local drug stores even behind the counter. Is it still available?

Does this pill make you high? Found this on the floor of my home and I have teenagers. I'm concerned. ## Hello, Dee! How are you? No, this is an over the counter product that is listed as containing 25mgs of Diphenhydramine, it is a generic or store brand of Benadryl that's used to treat allergies and insomnia. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including dizziness, drowsiness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Haha. It's allergy medicine. Take a chill pill. Literally. ## If the pill is 25 mags how much would I give to a dog that weighs 9 lb ## The LD50 of diphenhydramine in mice is 164 mg/kg. If a dog weighs around 4kg it should be safe giving it a quarter of a 25mg tablet.

I am an American living in Belgium and suffering from Fibromyalgia. I have both pain and sleeplessness. In the states I used a more generic Family Dollar Ibuprophen PM from time to time and it worked great. I cannot find anything like that here in Belgium as we don't really have drugstores as in the US where one can just scan all that is available. I have to go through a pharmacist here and there is a lot of difficulty in explaining what I am looking for. I am hoping someone can tell me if there is a way to order this kind of pill and it be delivered to Belgium I looked on AMazon and they are not allowed to be shipped here. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you ## Tylenol PM contains Acetaminophen and Diphenhydramine, so you might just want to ask specifically for a gene...

Small white round anti-allergy pill with imprint 'YS' and '5604' on the same side, and no imprint on the other side. Apparently this pill is also called 'BT 30'. Can anyone advise what exactly is this medicine? ## It is betamethasone. Betamethasone is in a class of drugs called steroids. Betamethasone prevents the release of substances in the body that cause inflammation.

I have got hey fever and started these tablets today. how long will it take for them to work. ## I hope you look up Zyrtec withdrawal Quitting Zyrtec and itching before you decide to take this. ## Yes, it contains Cetirizine, and it is most commonly used to treat allergies. The NIH warns that it may cause, side effects, such as nausea, headache, dry mouth, and drowsiness. You should start to experience some relief within 15 to 20 minutes of taking it, but it may take about 4 to 6 weeks for it to reach its full level of efficacy in your body. Itchy Scratchy, I am sorry about the problem you had from stopping. It is usually best to taper off of most medications to prevent these rebound effects. Have you tried any other allergy medications?

I lost a weeks pay and put my family through alot. I am now going to see a phychiarist to deal with this. It affected me so much that they put me on Zoloft.

When I'm in the sun for least than 30 minutes to an hour, I tends to get rashes on my neck, arms, & back if exposed. I've been to demotologist tests came back negative for Lupus,etc. But I do have allergies to certain trees, & grasses. ## Is it possible that you are experiencing a reaction to the sun itself, such as sun poisoning? Have you ever had a severe sunburn in the past? The FDA does warn that such an issue could cause bad reactions in the future. Do you use sun block? It might be in your best interest to pick up a really good sun block and use it, in the future, to prevent such issues. Are you on any medications? Do you have any diagnosed medical conditions?
