Anxiety Forums (Page 220)

I've been taking valium for four years. I have bladder & kidney problems. I have known I wasn't urinating but maybe twice a day. Now that I'm off of the valium I am urinating like crazy. Before I was taken off the valium I was testing positive for meds I hadn't been on for monthes. Is that why I was testing positive? I now look like a drug addict.

What's this medicine used for? ## Trapex is listed as containing the active ingredient Lorazepam, which is a benzodiazepine that's most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. It has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. ## I am a 32 year old male. I've been addicted to opioids for almost 1 year. Now I want to give it up and as per my doctor's advice I am taking Trapex. Is it good to take Trapex while detoxing?

My daughter thought they were "valium" given to her by a friend. ## Based on the description provided, I tried searching for the imprint "A 20" as well as "20" on a blue pill, and came up with no matching results. Do you know what shape the pill is (round, oval, capsule-shape, etc)? Also, would you describe the cloud shaped formation as a type of logo, or is it just the way the numbers look? With this information I can run a more narrow search and post back whether or not it shows up under any of the prescription drug resources. Any additional information, such as her friend's source of the pill is also very helpful. Thanks for double checking if you are able to! ## The pill in blue and round. There is a "v" on one side and the number 20 in a delibera...

My doctor prescribed me clonotril 0.25mg for a good sleep. I took one almost 2hrs ago. But still i am awake... Should i increase the dose(amd now if possible)... ## What did you end up doing? Clonotril contains the active ingredient Clonazepam, which is a Benzodiazepine. It can cause drowsiness as a side effect, but isn't actually just meant to be a medication to induce sleep, so it usually won't actually knock someone out. Learn more Clonotril details here. ## Dear sir...am experiencing bad dreams,short sleeping fastened heart beat...doctor suggested me to take chlonotril and fluze 20 for 10 days but i stopped after 7 dose...and experiencing same problem after stopping...so pls guide

I have been having pins and needles in my right hand for quite a while mainly at night, it is so painful that it wakes me up. I googled pins and needles and the suggestion was to change my pillow which I did without success. I don't think I suffer from stress although I do worry about my daughter and grandson. My doctor has prescribed Xanor SR 1mg but it makes me feel like I am on another planet and I feel very unstable whilst walking but the pins and needles don't happen as often ## Have you talked to your doctor about this? Xanor contains the active ingredient Alprazolam, which is a Benzodiazepine that's used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. However, it is pretty potent, so the 1mg may be too high of a dose for you. Learn more: ## Hi. I am currently immigrating to n...

Please let me know if propranol works how much you take and how long it takes ## Hi Theresa, According to nih.gov, Propranolol is used to treat high blood pressure, abnormal heart rhythms, heart disease, pheochromocytoma, and/or certain types of tremor. It can also be used to prevent chest pain and migraine headaches. However it is not used at all for anxiety... let alone severe cases of it. You may want to sit down and have a talk with the doctor who prescribed this to you if you were falsely led to believe that it was even for anxiety in the first place. Sounds like there could've been some sort of mix up with the prescriptions perhaps... You can learn more about this drug on the page for Propranolol Details Are you taking this medication legitimately?

My Dr. gave this to me for fluid in the middle ear doesn't seem to do much other than I'm more dizzy... ## Hi, Janet! Sorry that the medication isn't helping. It's an antihistamine that can help with some nausea and vertigo, unfortunately, it can also cause that in some people and it seems you're one of the unfortunate few. Learn more Hydroxyzine details here. Have you contacted your doctor about it, yet?? It's likely just not the right medication to help you and you'll probably need to try something else. ## They prescibed me this as well for vertigo is it really used for vertigo as well cause all i read is anxiety and for allergy

Answer: Oxazepam and Nordaezpam are active metabilites that the liver breaks some benzodiazepines donw to. Ik now for a factt that for Diazempam/valium the metabolites oxazepam and Nordazepam DO show up in urine because of the Diazepam falling apart in active metabolits when processed in liver. Also other benzo's can have metabolites like oxazepam or other: it all depends on what type of benzo yr using. Google avtive metabolite [type of benzo] and you know what will show up in your urine tests. Also depends if the drug gets processed renal (by urine) or hepatic. (liver) Good luck all. ## Sorry for typo's: I am on some recreational bennie dose now. But I do know about stuffthings lol. Regards!

After 4 weeks of 150xl once dailey am still experiencing very strong muscle aches all over 24/7. ON a scale of 1-10 it is an 8.Is this normal or should I call dr.I feel much better as it was for anxiety but killer aches. ## Hello, Juan! How are you doing? Generally, at about a month in, side effects should hit their peak and start to taper off in severity. If the muscle aches are still that intense, then it's time to consult your doctor. There could be something else going on, or this just might not be the right medication for you. Learn more Bupropion details here. Is there anything else I can help with?

Im 21 yrs old ive been married since i was 16 ... Ive been trying to get pregnant but i dont get my period at first i would get it every 2 months then it went to every 6 months and now i havent had my period for almosr 1yr...what can i do or take to get this fixed!! ## Hello, Angie! How are you? It could be due to a hormonal imbalance, but it can't be said with any certainty from just the information in your post. When you did get your period, did you experience any PMS symptoms, such as anxiety, irritability and/or food cravings? Did you have any cramping? How long did it usually last and how heavy was the flow? Have you consulted your doctor? They'd be able to do some blood work and an exam to find out what's going on. When was your last pap smear?

I checked three pharmacies and none carry butalbital manufactured by westward. I am told it is on back order with no specific date. Is it discontinued? Also, I was given MIA110 as substitute but it doesn't work as well. Any reason why that would be? ## Hi Mary, According to Medscape, Butalbital has been discontinued. However, I don't know which manufacturer it's referring to and I have yet to come across any other specific details that support this claim. You could try contacting Westward Pharmaceuticals directly if you're looking to hear it straight from the source. Their Customer Service can be reached at: 1-800-631-2174 Regarding MIA 110, it does contain Acetaminophen + Butalbital + Caffeine in the same listed dosages as Westward 787.

What instructions were provided with the Ativan? You should follow them and only use it as prescribed. Learn more Ativan details here.
