I think I'm having a bad side effect. Like hitters and really bad anxiety. Need help. Please. I'm on 50mg of seroquel and 280 mg methadone daily. ## Hello, Peter! How are you doing? Some caution does need to be taken, when taking these medications together, because they can increase the toxicity of each other, so that could be what's causing your problem. Have you consulted your doctor? You may need them to make a dosage adjustment. ## I am on 101mg of methadone (9yrs) and just got prescribed elival for sleep. Will the elival put me in methadone withdrawal ??? ## You need to get off of seroquel right now, and educate yourself. Combining a tranquilizer strong enough to kill a lion, with methadone? A medication that takes 6 hours to kick it, so you cant gauge how much to dose ...

The doctor prescribed Flupen 250 after circumcision. I take 2 pills every 2 hours. My question is, is that the right dosage? My brother cant remember what was said but the package says 2 pills every 2 hours. ## Hello Thenji, According to the NIH Flupen contains the active ingredient Flucloxacillin, which is typically used to treat infections caused by susceptible bacteria. The NIH goes on to say that the common adult dosage is 250mg 4 times daily which would come out to taking it every 6 hours, however, it is important to follow the instructions that your doctor gave you as they are most informed of your medical needs. I suggest that you call your doctor and check to see what his administration instructions were. I hope this helps.

I need to know if this is a Seroquel or not? It's oblong, kind of orange and brown with AB1 on it. ## Yes, it is a generic 50mg Quetiapine tablet manufactured by Accord Healthcare. NDC code: 16729-0132 The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, mood changes, and weight changes. It can be normal to receive different tablets from your pharmacy, from time to time, depending on who was offering the cheapest price, at the time they had to restock their supply. Are there any other questions?

Took prozac, cymbalta, and others a they ran their course. Depression better, but not happy with weight gain and tiredness. any other options available now??

I have a bi-polar condition and was on seroquel for about 10 years with success. It started giving out this past summer & now my doctor put me on 80mg of geodon, 4 lithobid.

Hi, Recently my mother was prescribed Livpride -25 by doctor for treatment of acidity. When we purchased the drug from chemist, we got Sulpride-25 containint Levosulpride salt. As the name was different, I checked over net and found that a drug with very similar name of salt(Levosulpiride) was an anti psychotic drug. So i went back to the chemist, checking whats wrong, and was given Livpride-25 which has Levosulpiride and was told that it was the actual prescription. Now I want to know which one of them if any is actually related to the treatment of acidity?? ## The one you mentioned Levosulpride is actually just a misspelling, the correct drug name is Levosulpiride and it has several medical uses, as well as being an antipsychotic. It also acts as a prokinetic agent, so it enhances gas...

I had been on a lot of opioid medication for several years and Seroquel at night for sleep. Two years ago I got off the pain meds but continued the Seroquel. Over the course of a couple of of months I developed worsening involuntary twitching and jerking of my legs at night. One afternoon I sat down to pay some bills and couldn’t even see right or sit still. I went to ER and they gave me some Ativan which put me back to normal for a few hours. The same symptoms continued. I looked back thru my daily journal and figured out the twitching and jerking started about 30 min after I took the Seroquel at night. I stopped the Seroquel for 6 nights and the movements went away. I took it on the 7th nite and it all came back with a vengeance. I stopped the Seroquel and have not had the probl...

They are small white R on one side the other side has a small line not a normal score like a dash line please tell me what they are frustrated over finding these ## Hi Julie, Based on the description provided, the closest match I'm finding is identified as Quetiapine (25mg); an antipsychotic used primarily to treat symptoms of schizophrenia. This medication is a white, round, film-coated tablet imprinted with "R" on one side and "1" on the other. However, the "1" also resembles what could be a partial score line in the center of the pill. For verification, you may be able to view a photo of it on google images under the following keywords: "round white pill R 1" I hope this helps! ## Thanks ## I have found White pills with R on one side and AO57 the o...

NO Seroquel does NOT show up on a drug test. Seroquel is usually not tested for unless specifically asked for which is highly unlikely and if you are getting a positive result on a drug test you might want to make sure that its actually seroquel and not something else. ## How long (days) stopping seroquil until it doesn't register if tested for? ## Yes Seroquel or as stated on my bottle Quetiapine will show as a false positive for tricyclic antidepressants. I take 50 mg twice a day, a low dose, today I took my normal morning meds and popped positive for tricyclic antidepressants this afternoon. This is not something that is normally tested for on a drug screening such as work or your P.O. My test was urine tested by a lab and was run twice with the same result, my test was more in d...

I found a pill in my sons room and would like to know what it is. It is small and round with a pinkish peach colour. On one side there is ON underlined and the other side is 20. I live in Canada so it makes it harder to identify what it is. I'm assuming the 20 is mg and the ON stands for Ontario but can find no information. Help please? ## Sorry to hear about what you found. I still haven't figured out what this is either - My guess is that the "ON" stands for the medication name or the manufacturer. I agree with you that the 20 is most likely the dosage in mg. Have you gathered any other details yet? My search continues as well. It might also be an over the counter product (not usually catalogued the way prescription meds are), or there is even a chance that it is an ov...
