Allergies, Cough & Cold Forums (Page 51)

very large round white pill with the letters RP101 on it ## I cannot find this listed in any of our databases. Can you provide anymore information, such as what country you are in? ## Is it possible that you have confused the letter R with the letter A ? They could look very similar, especially on pill markings. The reason I ask is because there's a white oblong tablet out there with the marking AP 101. This is known as Extendryl SR which contains Chlorpheniramine Maleate 8 mg + Methscopolamine Nitrate 2.5 mg + Phenylephrine Hydrochloride 20 mg. It is a combination of Antihistamine, Decongestant, and Anticholinergic medications which is used to treat the nasal congestion and runny nose caused by allergies or the common cold. ## Its generic walgreens rolaids, taste it seriously ## Th...

I am taking Flovent Hfa 120 Inh 110mcg. Is there a good substitute that is not as expensive? ## There is no generic for any formulation of Flovent currently available, from what I've found the soonest that one may reach market would be around December 2012. Have you discussed this issue with your doctor? There are several other corticosteroid inhalers available, but I am not sure what would be cheaper, compared to what you are paying now, since you didn't state how much it costs in your area. ## You might find one in your insurance listed in the alternative list but I DID NOT. re: Discuss/Flovent-alternative-284510.htm

I need a cheaper inhaler. Flovent is way too expensive on my new insurance - $299. Any suggestions? ## Hello, Lynne! How are you? Unfortunately, I have no idea what would be a cheaper alternative. Have you tried asking your pharmacist? They should be able to let you know what would be equivalent for a cheaper price, then you could speak to your doctor about trying it. Some people have good luck with Symbicort, which is very similar. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including headache, dry mouth, dry throat, diarrhea and nausea. Does anyone else have any suggestions? ## Hello, I inherited allergies from both sides, Mom's Mom & Dad's Dad, been through allergy shots (HA!) twice only to get sicker from such dribble.

Mu period was regular since last month..date to date..i am a 42 years old female.due to some skin allergy my doctor gave me defcort 24 mg dor 3 days single tablet daily,i am not getting my period this month now,its above 12 days now... ## Hello, Dimple! How are you? Yes, as ladies, we pretty much have to accept that any medication we take may throw off our periods, it's just something that happens and you'll find it listed under the full side effects that the U.S. FDA issues for almost all medications. Additionally, your age could be a factor, we ladies can also start experiencing the symptoms of perimenopause anytime after age 35, and it can cause our periods to become irregular. Is there any risk of pregnancy?

I have been waking up with sore throats since the past two days. It's really painfully and creates a lump in my throat which causes problems for me to swallow. But after sometime, it's perfectly fine. Taking alerid d before going to sleep will help it cure? ## Hello, Lisa! How are you? It really depends on what is causing the problem. This is an antihistamine that is used to treat allergic reactions, so it is only going to help, if it is an allergy that is causing the problem. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including dizziness, headache, drowsiness and dry mouth. Have you consulted your doctor? This can also occur due to acid reflux, and if that is what's causing it, you'll need a different medication to help.

I got my syrup from cvs and it is not thick at all. It's very runny. Is that the correct consistency? Didn't stop cough nor did i get any sleep like my doctor stated. Called pharmacy to make sure i got correct medicine and the rude pharmacist said yes. ## Hi Jane, Sorry to hear about the Cheratussin AC not working as well as it should. Unfortunately any medication can be a hit or miss in that regard. However, as far as Cheratussin's consistency is concerned I believe it should have a thicker liquid viscosity than say fruit juice for example, and not necessarily as thick as maple syrup either... It's honestly been a while since I've taken Cheratussin - but now that you mention how runny yours was, I do recall my last experience with it also being more runny than what ...

Thus, it would be best to dispose of them and purchase a new supply. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, nervousness and insomnia.
