I am suffering from typhoid. Is ZIFI-200 beneficial for me? ## I am suffering from fever, should I take zifi200mg medicine or not ## I am suffering from stomach pain and mild loose motion as well as a throat infection. Would zifi 200 be beneficial for me? My Doctor has advised this to me for diarrhea. ## I've been suffering from a cough for the last 15 to 20 days. Can I take zifi-cv 200 for it or not?

Where can you get turpin hydrate elixer for mucous relief? ## From what I've read, the FDA banned terpin hydrate back in the mid-1980's. Apparently the reasoning behind this ban was that they were never able to prove it's effectiveness. However, contrary to their opinion on the medication's efficacy, I think many people would still agree that it works better than a lot of the stuff on today's shelf. Have you tried any other approaches for mucous relief in the meantime? They say ginger root is also good for breaking up phlegm and mucus from the respiratory tract...but mixing it with lemon juice and raw honey can be beneficial as well; at least from my own experience. I hope this helps! ## Wonderful news! Turpin hydrate is NOT banned, although it's no longer carrie...

I was given three 500mg tablets of azitromicina cinfa written on box is comprimidos recubiertos con pelicula EFG by a dr in Spain 3-4 weeks ago i took them as i was on holiday and had cold cough phlegm etc for two and half weeks and couldn’t get rid of it so went to the dr in spain who perscribed the above tablets. I have just noticed that i only took two of the tablets there is still one in the box. I believe these are anti biotics so does this mean next time I need to take anti biotics they won’t work because i didn’t finish the course? Should I take this single tablet now three to four weeks later? i became quite well after taking the two tablets and I don’t take anti biotics often (if the these are anti biotics) hope you can advise thanks. ## Yes, they are an...

I failed a drug test and the only thing I had taken was over the counter sleep-aids ## This also happened to me TWICE. I go the a clinic where I take methadone and I'm required to take a UA once a month and the past 2 drug test have come back positive for benzos which I haven't taken in years. The only thing that I could actually think of are the sleeping pills I take every night(4 tablets) which are UNISOM and the main ingredient is Diphenhydramine. This is the only medication I actually take other than methadone so it has to be the culprit.

Will co-aleva treat an itchy throat and cough? ## In short, it can, depending on the underlying cause of the itchy throat and cough. Co-Aleva contains Ebastine + Betamethasone. -Ebastine is an antihistamine used for allergies. -Betamethasone is a steroid. If your cough/itchy throat is bacterial or viral, then Co-Aleva may not be a viable option. However, if it's due to allergies or other related immune conditions then I can see why this might be prescribed. Were you able to get any feedback from your doctor?

I attend a methadone clinic in the state of pa. I've been on methadone at the same clinic for over 2 & 1/2 yrs. I've been clean since joining in may of 2011. Last Monday I had my first false/positive drug screen which came up benzos. My counsler said it's from the benadryl most likely not the Advil cold n sinus I took the night before my drug screen . Muy supervisor at the clinic was told the original lab that fulfills our drug screens at the clinic told her it wouldn't be from the benadryl. They took away my take homes while it is being sent out to be tested again. Will further testing break it down more to show that I have only took my methadone vitamins benadryl and Advil cold & sinus. I am very stressed out because I now have to wake up myself and 2yr old son...

little round white pill 93 848 ## Yep, this is a store brand or generic version of Actifed, manufactured by Lemmon and listed as a cold remedy, so the name you will find it under in various stores will differ.
