I am 8 weeks pregnant and suffering from flu since last 6 days. I took combination of paracetamol-500mg and aceclofenac-100 mg tablets almost everyday for this past week. Is it going to harm my baby? I also took nimuselide 100mg and paracetamol 400mg a couple of times. Please let me know. I am very much worried. ## The Aceclofenac hasn't actually beens studied in pregnant women, but there has been evidence to show some risk to the baby, especially when used during late pregnant.

I found these pills in my boyfriends Truck? What are they for? He orders medication from Mexico and I don't trust Mexican pharmacists sometimes.

Can you tell me the Amer. equivalent for celestamine and/or celestamine NS. Got it in Mexico. ## Can you tell me an american equivalent to celestamine ns.

With the antihistamine Loratadine added, it's usually used to treat allergic reactions. Are there any questions or comments? You can learn more Betamethasone details here and there are more Loratadine details available here. ## Can you tell me the equivalent of celestamine ns

Found a white pill, approx 8mm long. Oval shaped. It is blank on one side and the other is scored and has a symbol imprinted on it that resembles a bell or a witches hat. It also has 10 imprinted on this same side. Thanks ## I found the same pill while cleaning out my apartment a few months ago and couldn’t find anything about it online at all. Then, finally, I found a picture of it on Google, clicked on the pic, was redirected to an Australian pharmacy, and after scrolling through the site for a little while, I found the pill! The pill you have is a Claratyne 10mg. They’re only available in Australia so how it ended up in my apartment, I have not a single clue. Very strange… Anyway, I hope this helped! Best of luck to you and happy new year!! You can see an image unde...

My mom is on Prednisone and is having severe anxiety and insomnia. She is a totally different person. The docs have lowered her dose and tell us she will improve 4-6 weeks after it is lowered. Anyone else go through this and did it get better after that time? I need advice. ## I, too, had insomnia after taking the Prednisone. Anxiety has increased tenfold. My husband is a love and he takes good care of me. He understands and sometimes when I get carried away he just smiles and says, Prednisone and I know the medication is causing the problem. I hope that things get better for your mom. Just try to remind her in a nice way that the Prednisone is causing her feelings and that she really is OK. Being patient with her will help more than anything I think and if she is receptive to the idea ...

I also received a cream for a torn labrum, and back spasms as a result of the torn labrum. The insurance is making me jump through Hoops! (Now 2 yrs.)

Could you please let us know how and where we can obtain a couple of tubes of Betametasona Clotrimazol Gentamicina ASAP!!! I don't know where it is available to buy, but we would greatly appreciate any details. Thank you sooooo much, Cindy ## Hi Cindy, The medication which you are referring to contains Betamethasone + Clotrimazole + Gentamicin. This specific combination of active ingredients is not sold as-is in the United States, which is probably why the label is in Spanish. I think you have a couple of options. (1) See if you can get a doctor's prescription and have a local pharmacy compound it for you (2) If you travel to Mexico you should be able to bring the product back through customs provided it is for personal use You might also find a related discussion thread to be h...

I am 3 weeks pregnant. the gestation sac is 0.9 cm small, the doc prescribed 200mg of mifepristone and around 4-72 hrs later asked me to come in for an appointment for vaginall insertion of misoprostol. She is charging me a very heavy bill and hence I asked her if I could administer the second dose myself. She is not providing any support till I pay for another consultation. Can you give me specific instructions as to how many pills I should insert at a time and intervals between the pills. ## That is a little odd, because these are commonly used by women, at home, without a doctors intervention, but I supposed a doctor can also set their own policies. Is there some reason she wants to supervise your use of it? That is always possible if there is some type of health problem involved and...

What kind of pill is this? Thanks. ## Lot numbers are internal numbers that are used by manufacturers to identify specific production runs of their products. In light of that, they do not actually identify any product or medication, because the some number could be used by several other companies. Thus, to identify one of their products, packaging, lot number, expiration and sometimes other details are required. Are there any markings on the tablets? That is what would enable us to identify them for you. ## Found light blue oval pill has the number L 368 on it what u think it might be ## L 368 is a naproxen 220mg (Nsaids) prescription pill ## What is an oval blue pill with 8987 on it, other side blank?
