I take ixprim for plantarfaiotis and carpel tunnel. Lately I've been experiencing pain down my upper abs to my bellybutton and extremely itchy all over my body. I had pancreatisis before I had my gallbladder removed 13 yrs ago and the pain is quiet the same. I'm wondering if that pain is my pancreas and if I'm doing it more damage ## Hello, Gillian! How are you? This antibiotic has been known to cause pancreatitis, as reported by the U.S. FDA, so yes, it could be causing it, but only your doctor can say for sure. Additionally, an antibiotic will do nothing to treat Carpal Tunnel. Its other typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Ixprim is a pain killer, not an antib...

Else take curd. Curd has good bacteria. ORNOF would cure loose motions that is due to stomach infection. ## Ornof is listed as containing Ornofloxaci...

I have some Ed-a-hist 4-10mg tablets that expired on 5/29/15, are they still safe for me to take and will they still be helpful to me? ## Hi Perky, I can't speak for this drug specifically, but when it comes to expiration dates in general, one rule of thumb is that the listed expiration date is more of a ball-park figure rather than a precise date by which it essentially renders unsafe/ineffective (aside from tetracycline). Studies from Harvard Medical School as well as The LA Times point out that many medications are actually still good for up to 10-40 years after the listed expiration date. So I will say that if it were me in this position, I personally wouldn't mind taking something that's only been "expired" for less than a year. I'd just encourage you to res...

It doesn't bother my skin except it's causing a drying feeling; but if I'm not allergic to that and I'm allergic to sulfa related drugs would it be safe to use this soap anyways? I have a minor skin infection on my face. Can someone please help? ## They are different substances, sulfur is present in eggs, some soaps, and various other substances naturally. However, sulpha/sulfa is a different chemical, so being allergic to one does not necessarily equate being allergic to the other. It doesn't rule out your experiencing another, unrelated, allergy, though. For example, after taking an antibiotic containing Sulfamethoxazole, I discovered I have a sulpha allergy, but I don't react to sulfur in eggs, soaps, and other substances. Basically, one is natural, and one is...
