I found this pill going through a family members house who passed on what is it? It's long oblong shaped and white with 300 on one side nothing else ## There's a 750mg Levetiracetam ER tablet that is white and oblong shaped, but it has "1300" embedded on one side and blank on the other. Any chance that the "1" could've gotten smudged off or is difficult to see? If it's of any help, this particular medication is used for treating epilepsy. Do you know of any family members who might be taking something like this? Unfortunately that's the closest representation of what I could find here. If anyone else has more information to add, please post back!

I have a question. I have 300mg gabapentin. If I'm out of the 300mg can I take 400mg? ## Hello, Denice! How are you? It would be best not to raise your dosage, without your doctor's approval. If you do, you may experience more side effects, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood swings and weight gain. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello, I have been taking Topamax since November 6, 2015, and for the past 3 weeks have been at 200 mg a day. I was getting over 15 "incapacitating" migraines a month, with somewhere between 5-7 of those being so bad I could not get out of bed or even had to go to the ER. My triggers are mainly food and airborne allergies. Right now, I am pretty much housebound and on a very restricted diet. Migraines are not my only reaction. In the past 2 months, I've had 14 "incapacitating" migraines, of which 6 were bad enough to keep me in bed and 2 sent me to the ER. It sounds like a 50% reduction in migraines, but I've been housebound mostly, and use a mask when I go out most of the time. So I'm wondering, is a 50% reduction of migraines while still being housebound go...

this may sound a dumb question but is pre gabapentin the same drug as gabapentin ## Hello, Ema! How are you? I think you may be confusing the name of two medications, Pregabalin and Gabapentin. They are both anticonvulsants that are also used to treat some mood disorders and certain types of nerve pain, but they are two different medications. The FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and weight gain. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hi, I have a similar question. I have had my urine sent to a lab to check for gabapentin. I am wondering will pregabalin turn up the same as gabapentin when sent off?

Hey, So my partner started taking gabapentin 3x300mg 3 times a day for rheumatoid arthritis in his feet he's only 29. He recognized this drug as something his friends use to take recreationally and we all know it effects us all differently. I'm bipolar get a little bored and curious not to mention noticed a change in his mood just in general a happier person so I thought I'd start taking them too just for the effect. I soon became addicted to the feeling of not really caring almost superior, I felt I could talk my way out of any situation and just loved life. Of course there's always a time you run out and with us both taking them he soon did. With the pain of arthritis coming and going there was always plenty for me. I soon realized just how addicted I was and was the f...

Can Lamotrigine extended release tablets change the texture of your hair or have any side effects to your hair? ## That is a side effect that can be caused by virtually all medications. Our hair, skin and nails are very touchy, so adding any chemical, such as Lamotrigine could cause oddities, which may include hair loss, slowed growth, changes in thickness or growth rate and some have even been known to cause color changes, as reported by the FDA. What specific issues are you experiencing?

How much will zonisamide affect oxycontin? I started both meds together. The oxycontin is temporary because of dental work. I just started birth control called enskyce. I queeeze an average of 5 grapefruits a day and drink it all day. I haven't noticed any side effects from zonisamide since I started a week ago on 100 MG for having a grand Mal seizure 6 weeks ago. I did take vitamins really late tonight which is dumb, I know to take then in the am. I took my birth control, zonisamide, centrum silver for women over 50, and some vitamin for hair skin and nails from Walgreens (I'm 26 but my last meds made my hair fail out) and I got super shakey and very alert(3 hrs later I still am) I was very drowsy before the vitamins so I know that was the culprit. It seems like I'm doing a...

Small Round pill that has a C a on it on one side and 123 on the other side ## Hi Stevie, I'm just curious about what color your pill is? I located a small round orange pill with a C on one side and 123 on the other, which turned out to be 50mgs of Topiramate. Topiramate is an anticonvulsant/antiepileptic medication that's also used for migraines and nerve pain. Apparently "Cipla USA" is the manufacturer of this particular tablet. I'm assuming the that's what the letter C stands for in the imprint. However you can always double check by contacting this company directly via their customer service department at: 844-247-5287. They also have a customer service email for added convenience: [email protected] I hope this helps!

What is it? ## Hi Jorge, The closest match I can find is Levetiracetam extended release (750) mg; which is a white pill with the imprint "1300" on the front and nothing on the back.

What pharmacy carries these? I have used the R636 pills for a few years. I have diabetic nerve pain up to my knees, hands to my elbows and take 1200mg every 8 hours. I have tried the white gabapentin pills (G31, 150 coated, 150 un-coated and others) they DO NOT work, it's almost like some of the pills are just filled with binders and have no gabapentin. I have tried all my local pharmacys. They all say that they can no longer get the R636 pills. Does anyone know where the green R636 pills are available? If so, please let me know.
