Found pill on floor and no idea what it is. Round peach in color one side has a "c" and the other side is blank ## It is a 10mg citalopram ## Just to confirm for others, this is a 10mg Citalopram tablet, manufactured by Caraco. And for additional verification, the National Drug Code is 57664-0507. To help with any discrepancies, the color of the tablet is also depicted as orange in the product description. Although it does look like a pale peach color in all the images I'm seeing. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Citalopram Details Hope this helps!

How are you doing? In a couple of my other responses to you, I've also mentioned the possibility of combining medications… so… The reason that I've suggested it and the most likely reason your doctor thinks Effexor may work for you when combined with something els...

Can I take this while taking celexa ## Hi Jeff, From what I've read, taking either of these two medications together can increase your risk of certain adverse effects. Anything from mental impairment and difficulty staying focused, to experiencing sudden dizziness or drowsiness. I don't know how often these types of interactions occur in the percentage of people that do use them together... or at what dosage it becomes severe, but I wouldn't suggest taking any chances without speaking to your doctor first. Perhaps he can make a more informed decision after going over your medical records. I hope this advice helps!

I used espiride for a year while breastfeeding, not realizing it is a antideppresant. That was in 2011. A few months ago my dr prescribed lexamil to me for chronic tired syndrome? I have gained 7kg in six months? Is espiride and lexamil more or less the same? I would rather use espiride? ## Hello, Es! How are you? Actually, the Espiride contains Sulpiride, which is an atypical antipsychotic, though it is also used to treat major depressive disorder, it is not an actual antidepressant. But the Escitalopram in the Lexamil is an SSRI class antidepressant. As to going back to it, have you discussed the issue with your doctor? What are you taking them to treat?

I am taking daxid from last one year almost .I am pregnant now is it going to affect my baby ## Hello, Somu! How are you? Congratulations on the baby! There are no controlled studies on the use of Daxid/Sertraline during pregnancy, so the possibility of there being some risk can't be ruled out. Have you informed your doctor that you were taking it? That would be the best thing to do, so they can monitor your situation.

I have chronic lower back pain from two surgeries and also arthritis. Over a year ago I was taking opiates and had epidural injections. The doctor suggested Cymbalta. After two weeks at 60 mg my pain was nearly gone and I haven't had any opiates since. I also feel the Cymbalta help my mood because I may have been depressed living with pain day in and out. Here's the dilemma. I've read so many horror stories about Cymbalta withdrawal it scares me and I'm thinking maybe I should get off of it now. I did have a few side effects (dry mouth, sweating) but these have long gone. I went down to 30 mg a day and have a few minor withdrawals (ears ringing, small pupils, no zaps but the head feels congested). The problem is the pain has returned. Every morning its a struggle to get ...

Hi all - new to this forum. I started taking Trazodone and Ativan after back injury and subsequent depression and insomnia. Now months later, I am weaning off the Ativan (down from 2.5 to .5 and running!). Doing it slowly and it's going well. But I am experiencing side effects from the Traz (blurred vision, headaches, etc.) and beginning to bring my dose down as well (was at 100 mg, now down by 12.5!). Any advice/concerns about doing both at same time? ## Hello, Luria! How are you doing? How slowly are you doing it? If you're tapering both, at the same time, then it's hard to say which may be causing these symptoms, it might even be due to both of them, since both are psychoactive and have been known to cause such symptoms upon withdrawal. You need to be extremely careful wi...

My name is josh,I am 33 years old. I have been struggling with weight gain as long as I can remember. Through the years I have done so much research on so many products and tried just about all of them as well. After spending hundreds of dollars and many depressed days I've realized eating right working out and staying active is the best way for weight gain. ## Hello, Josh! How are you? I am so glad that you found something that's working for you. Yes, it does take diligence and dedication, there is no miracle solution. Are there any other questions or concerns?

I have been on Zoloft for years and once in a while I felt it wasn't working well. Now it's gotten worse and I cry a lot, I am shaky and easily hurt so much so that I am ruining my relationship. I have no reason for this since I am in the best place of my life. I feel crazy but I think it's a physical problem, not insanity. ## Hello- I am sorry you are having difficulty. I went through something similar. I had to admit I needed more help so I got an app to help remind me to take it regularly and at the same time. I reorganized the pill container and I felt better after a few weeks. If I hadn't I know I can ask for temporary panic attack med like Ativan or kolonopin if relative died, but if no crisis it meant I had to tell my doctor to up the dose. Please send a message t...

I was taking Cymbalta for depression and anxiety for two years. I also have chronic back problems, and it was helping my pain. Out of the blue, whatever the name of the government prescription plan for people disabled and on Medicare decides to stop paying for it and, therefore, allowing me to take it! I was switched BACK TO Effexor's generic, Venlafaxine XR, which wasn't working nearly as well as the Cymbalta. I know it's not just because I have government based insurance because other people pay for insurances that do that also. I just wish that whoever is benefiting from the profits of this would realize that the maybe 50%+ in income from old medications and dispensing generic medications, is not fair to the sick if they don't work. Mental Illness is a real disease. I...

I have been taking the Bupropion HCL XL 150MG for 5 days but have noticed little effect. It seems to me as if I am in-between how I should feel, I feel a little up, melancholy, calm but at the same time I feel not so motivated, a little placid and could easily sit and do nothing (all though I feel like I should be up doing something, does that make sense?) My question is would it hurt me to take two 150MG? Just to see if this gets me out of this limbo state. ## Hello, Ira! How are you? 5 days is far too soon to expect this medication to reach its full level of effectiveness in your body, it can take about a month for that to happen. And no, you definitely shouldn't adjust your dosage without your doctor's approval. Is there anything else I can help with?

Why this has happened? What is to be done now? Was this due to wrong medication/dosage? Can anybody reply immediately ?. Matter urgent. ## Hello, Shama! How is your wife doing? This medication is a steroid, so when someone is on it, it can lower their immunity, which could make it easier for them to catch infections, so that might be what happened. That's not to say that it was the wrong medication for the d...

I have been taking Effexor XR, 150 Mg.for about 7 years.My pain management doctor suggested that I switch to Cymbalta, 30 Mg.for a week and then 60 Mg.We felt that Cymbalta would be a better choice with Tramadol 150 Mg.that I currently take.Does anyone have experience with Cymbalta helping major depression /anxiety as well as pain relieved?Will 60 Mg.of Cymbalta be comparable to 150 Mg.of Effexor XR? ## Hello, Shar! How are you? I'm curious as to why it was felt that the Cymbalta would be a better choice with the Tramadol? Both Cymbalta and Effexor are in the exact same drug class, they are both SNRI antidepressants, so the same risks and possible interactions are there with both of them and the Tramadol, nothing is lessened by switching from one to the other. I'm sorry, if I...

Hi everyone. I located in Jacksonville Florida and have been unable to find my pain medications for over a month. My quality of life has decreased tremendously over this short time. I've reached the point where I dread a new day arriving because that means I have to do the pharmacy crawl and be treated like a pariah. I'm 38 and have been living in chronic pain for all over 10 years but have only been taking narcotic pain medicine for around 2 yyears. I don't drink or smoke and was extremely hesitant to even try narcotic pain medications so I tried just about everything else out there and wasted a lot of time and money on different creams, oils, devices, etc to relieve my pain with no success. I finally broke down and decided to try narcotic pain medication after my son turne...

Yes, you can take the antibiotics with these medications. It's actually the Trazodone and the Aropax that could be a dangerous combination.
