I have rheumatoid arthritis. I've been taking defza 6mg for more than one and half years. I am now gaining weight (10 kg). Can I stop taking it? When I stop taking the tab will I get back to my normal weight and when I stop immediately will I have severe pain? Please advise. ## This contains the active ingredient Deflazacort, which is a steroid class medication, so after being on it for such a long period of time, you cannot abruptly stop taking it. In order to get off of a medication such as this, you have to slowly taper the dosage. Learn more Defza details here. However yes, it is likely that you will lose some of the weight, once you are off of the medication. Have you consulted your doctor for advice?

i took 5 arthrexin - 25. had high blood pressure 226 / 102 did the arthrexin cause this ## I have smoked canabis for more than 10 years I have stopped smoking but now am battling with high blood pressure ## @harry, Although I do believe cannabis can help a lot with high blood pressure, there are also other natural alternatives you can try on the side. First and foremost, changes in your diet are most likely going to have the biggest impact on your blood pressure. Eating foods that have little to no sodium and which are high in potassium and magnesium are your best food sources for lowering blood pressure in my opinion. These foods primarily include fresh fruits and vegetables; bananas and dates in particular are great for this, among many others! Other dietary and non dietary options fo...

My mother and I have been using Rumoquin NF for severe pain, which we believe is arthritis. So far, it is the only medicine that alleviates the pain; however, if we don't take it every day, the pain comes back, and it is very strong. I am quite concerned about the side effects. What could they be? Thank you. ## Rumoquin N.F. made by Schoen Lab in Mexico contains the following active ingredients: Methocarbamol (215mg) + Indomethacin (25mg) + Betamethasone (0.75mg) Methocarbamol is in a class of medications called muscle relaxants.

what is the main difference of action between Piascledine Vs. Sulfato de Glucosamina against arthrosis? ## These are both just natural supplements that are claimed to help with joint mobility and pain. Piascledine contains Avocado and Soybean Oil. Move Free Advanced contains Uniflex with Joint fluid, Glucosamine and Chondroitin. Therefore neither has actually been proven to help with anything. Are there any other questions or comments? ## piascledine has been proved to help to stop cartilage destruction, read papers before give an answer

Why is one tablet 7.5 tiny and another by different manufacturer much larger?Are they adding extra ingredients and if so why? I find it odd one can be so small and another so big. I checked and both are correct dosage. ## Yes, it is due to the inactive ingredients that they use. There is a list of them that are considered inactive and benign, with no therapeutic effect that the manufacturer can choose from, when making the tablets. Learn more Meloxicam details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thank you for your reply. Is it possible to get a list of the inactive ingredients ? This pill has a 79 on one side and a c on the other. It is 7.5. I often wonder what exactly we are taking in a pill like this. Thank you.

Can I use an open tub with a bbe 7/11 date? ## I can't really tell you if this Glucosamine Sulphate will help you or not, since it is expired by almost a year. Although I do agree that certain medications are actually okay to take after expiration, there are others such as antibiotics that can become toxic. Nothing lasts forever without expressing signs of degeneration. The only real way to know how long it can maintain it's potency after expiration, would be to have it lab tested periodically. Does anyone else have an opinion to share on this?

I have chronic Osteoporosis pain. the 7.5 I take at 7 am wares off by the afternoon. Should I double the dosage: 7.5 am and 7.5 after 6pm? Also, is it safe to take clonazepam .5mg with Meloxicam. Thanks much for any suggestions. ## The normal starting dose is 7.5mgs, once daily, but it can be increased to 15mgs, in two even doses, so that would mean a second 7.5mg tablet 12 hours later. Learn more Meloxicam details here. However, it is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that requires a prescription, so you'll have to have any dosage change approved by your doctor. Have you contacted them, yet? And I didn't find any interactions, or problems listed between the two medications, but you should check with your pharmacist to be certain. ## Thank you kindly for the quick reply. I will f...

I have just been diagnosed with two bulging disks in My neck and my doctor has set me up to have 3 epidural shots, I'm kind of nervous because for one, I'm scared of needles, and years ago I had an allergic reaction to a cortisone shot in my knee, however I agreed to give the shots a try because the pain I'm experiencing is unbearable. Has anyone had these shots, did they work, and what should I expect? Thanks for any info in advance! ## Do you know the specific details on these shots? Are they definitely more cortisone? Because if you had an allergic reaction to it once, then trying it again isn't a very good idea, because the risk of your having another one is increased. Learn more Cortisone information here. ## No, my doctor told me he would use something different bu...
