is gelmicin brtametasona clotrimazol used for any vaginal iritation or swollen in that area ## Hello, Nancy! How are you? It would be best not to use anything for vaginal use that hasn't been specifically formulated for such use. Doing so could cause more issues, according to the FDA, such as infections, skin redness, irritation, spotting, and allergic reactions. Did your doctor tell you to take this? ## I used Gelmicin for my vaginal itching.. I had no odor or yeast or discharge just itching. and it has helped a 100 %, A friend of mine who is a Dr. in Mexico told me it was good to use it as vaginal cream..

MOUTH ULCERS ## Klacks mouthwash, also referred to as Klax or Clacks Solution is reportedly a prescribed mixture that you must obtain from a pharmacy. Interestingly enough, when I search for these names (noted above) I primarily get results for what's called "Magic mouthwash", so I'm under the impression that this is what it's most commonly known as. Magic mouthwash is indicated for use in treating mouth sores. The following PDF lists all the commonly used Magic mouthwash formulas: mercypharmacy.wikispaces.com/file/view/MAGIC+MOUTHWASH.pdf Most formulas are said to contain at least 3 ingredients but are not limited to: An antibiotic, antihistamine, antifungal, steroid, local anesthetic/pain reliever, or an antacid. Dosing reportedly depends upon the type of formula b...

It is 500 mg of Cephalexin. It is an antibiotic, but it is not Amoxicillin. Cephalexin is a bit stronger. ## This identification is correct, it is manufactured by Karalex Pharma. NDC code: 42043-141 The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash. Inactive ingredients may include: croscarmellose sodium D&C Yellow No. 10 FD&C Blue No. 1 FD&C Yellow No. 6 gelatin magnesium stearate microcrystalline cellulose titanium dioxide But they can vary depending on manufacturing facility. Is there anything else I can help with?

I need to know how long Stugeron is good after the expiration date on the front has passed. I have a pack here that says "exp 2 2013". I'm traveling soon so I would like to know if these pills will still work for me or not. Thanks! ## @Allyouneedtoknow, Not all expired medications are bad, but I think it's good that you took the time out to check first since some can be dangerous (i.e. tetracycline). According to a drug monograph I read, Stugeron has an estimated shelf life of 3 years. I also found out that it does not require any special storage conditions like most other meds do. So you should be fine to take it until 2016 based on that info alone. I don't know if at what point it can begin to diminish potency, however other drug studies by Harvard University sugge...

I have had a pink/red eye for 3 weeks now. My doctor prescribed erythromycin ophth ointment, tobramycin drops and it does not help. Should I try Terramycin? I am allergic to Bactrim which contains sulfate. Does Terramycin contain sulfate? ## Hello, Christy! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. How long have you been using the ointment and drops? They will take time to clear it up and won't work immediately. No, Terramycin is not a sulfa drug, but you shouldn't use it, unless your doctor approves as it may not be appropriate to treat the type of infection you have. Typical side effects to these topical products may include eye redness, irritation and skin rash. ## I have an inflamed red eyelid. May I use Terramycin ointment? If so, where can I find...

I can't stop the diarrhea....please advise how to it... ## Because diarrhea is a common side effect of Amoxicillin, to me it makes sense to stop taking what's causing the issue in the first place, and then opt for another alternative or natural remedy to kill the infection. Eating plenty of bananas may help with the diarrhea temporarily if you're veering towards the end of your Amoxicillin treatment; otherwise I'd suggest looking into the use of Oregano Essential Oil (as it is heavily regarded as being a more potent antibiotic than this drug, minus the side effects). Just something to consider down the road. I hope this bit of info helps! ## Doctor RX'd AMOX TR-K CLV 500-125 mg, 14 pills 2x a day for a reoccuring bladder infection.

I am taking clindamycin for nrsa staph infection of my leg, will this treatment cure me of staph infection ? ## Hi, Barry! Sorry about the infection, I hope it clears up fast. And yes, many strains of MRSA are still susceptible to Clindamycin, but it is becoming increasingly resistant. Thus, there's really no way to say if it's going to work for the infection you have. The only thing you can do is try it and see. Learn more Clindamcyin details here. It may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. To know if it's working, you shouldn't see any worsening of the infection after the first 24 hours of taking it and you should start to see improvement after 3 days, if not you'll need to contact your doctor. Are there any other que...

I had a tooth absence and the dentist gave me Betamox 500g and Metzol 200mg after some few day the absence bust and I stopped using all those tablets .my problem is I've been experience pains on my private parts and itching bad at my vagina with lots of thick discharge inside. I thought it will get better but it is getting serious or more confusing symptoms everyday.I think it is caused by the medication ## Yes, Betamox which contains Amoxicillin, and Metzole, which contains Metronidazole, are antibiotics and they can cause yeast infections as side effects as listed by the NIH, and the symptoms you've described likely mean that's what you've developed. It will not go away on it's own, you will need to see your doctor, because it will require an antifungal infection t...

I was using the petogen for preventing to fall pragnant. Ciprofloxacin can clean the petogen in the blood ## I need to remove petogen to my body i have 10 day have this petogen ## does the ciprofloxacine really cleans out the petogen in the body? ## Hello Nozipho, According to the National Institute of Health there is no listed interraction between Ciprofloxacin and Petogen. Ciprofloxacin is used to treat a number of bacterial infections and as such should not interfere with your petogen contraceptive. I hope this helps.

I took Norflox TZ twice daily for 3 days for loose motion; now observing blood in my stool. Can this be related to Norflox? ## Are you seeing bright red fresh blood, or is old and black? Because if it's red and fresh, then there's a good chance that is just from your outer anal area and due to irritation from the diarrhea. Learn more Norfloxacin details here.

My doctor (OBG) gave me nitrofurantoin monohydrate macrocrystals (100 caps) for a UTI. 3 days after completing my dose I got an allergic reaction with hives, etc. I went to my MP Dr. and she said I may be allergic to sulfur, but my OBG just told me there is no sulfur in this antibiotic. I am a little confused. So what am I allergic to? ## Hello Shadow, Sorry to hear that you are having an allergic reaction to something in your medication. One thing I would like to point out is that people often confuse sulfa, sulfate, sulfur and sulfite. Sulfur is most commonly found in fertilizers and is unlikely in any medication that you are taking, however sulfa and sulfates are found in medication frequently. It is important when talking with medical professionals to know which of these they are ta...

I have cellulitis in the folded overlap on my stomach. It was diagnosed. Can I use gelmicin on it when it starts itching or gets red? ## Hello, Reed! How are you? It would best to consult your doctor, before using it, just to be safe. It contains an antibiotic, antifungal and steroid that is used topically. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including skin redness, irritation, dryness, rash and headache. Are you on an oral antibiotic, as well? ## I cut myself on my toe with my bathtub can I use this cream I ran out of triple antibiotic

cigmadil clindamicina is what is written on the box of medicine we are wondering the type of medicine and the how to take it. Thank you ## I believe Clindamicina would translate to Clindamycin, which is an antibiotic - treatment can range from malaria to bacterial infection to acne. More details are available at: Do you have any other questions or information to add? Please post back if you do... ## Is heartburn a common a side effect after taking Cigmadil? ## I had an infection in the U.S. and my doctor prescribed two types of antibiotics.

I had dental work done in Mexico, and the dentist prescribed Cigmadil but didn...

I took sulfamethoxazole trimethoprim 800/160 mg which expired 2 years ago; but i only took half and I have had a headache all day. Can I now take ibuprofen for the headache? My last dose was 4 and a half hours ago. ## Hello, Renee! How are you feeling? I didn't find any problems or interactions listed, but it is always best to double check to be sure. Since the Sulfamethoxazole/Trimethoprim is an antibiotic, why did you only take half of it? Given that it was also expired, that would likely not be an appropriate dose to treat an infection. The FDA also lists headaches as being one of its possible side effects, along with nausea, dizziness, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash. ## How long does it take to start feeling better after taking smz tmp ds 800-160.
