I found n sons room...plz tell me what it.is... worried momma .yellow oval pill with 2611 on one side and G on other side.. ## Hello, Is there any chance that the pill you found may actually be white or off-white in color as opposed to yellow? Just asking because I located a similar white oval pill with a G on one side and 2611 on the other. The only difference being the color. This particular pill is identified as a 2.5mg Terbutaline sulfate tablet; which is used to treat asthma, as well as bronchitis, and even used to prevent premature labor in pregnant women. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Terbutaline Details I hope this info helps!

I had side effects from Respitrol. I helped with the tightness of asthma but gave me a strange headache/head sensations, almost like I had a bad hangover. This happened even with a very small dose. ## Hello, Elise! How are you doing? Sorry about the problem you had. I assume you're referring to Respitrol the over the counter supplement claimed to help with asthma? It's an Ayurvedic product, which means it's never been tested for efficacy, safety or side effects. The problem that frequently occurs with these types of products is that many such substances are far stronger than many prescription drugs, so you can still experience problems even from a very tiny dose. Did you contact the manufacturer about it?

kastair 10mg how long it should take? ## Kastair contains Montelukast, it is used to treat asthma and allergy attacks. Most of these medications work pretty fast, but it really depends on the severity of the attack being treated and the medication formulation. The EX tabs will work faster, because they are specially designed to dissolve and help the medication get into your body faster than regular tablets. Are there any questions or comments? ## took 10 mg of Montelukat Kastair 40 min. ago, still hard of breathing through the nose, nose sometimes ok, then becomes blocked again, thanks ## My 4 yr old daughter eat four tablet today, she thinks it is candy. What shall we do? Each tablet has 4 mg.

is this medicine a steroid or not? If yes then what are its immediate side effects and long term side effects? ## Based on my research, neither medication found in MONTAIR-LC are depicted as steroids. Montelukast is reportedly in a class of medications called leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs). It works by blocking the action of substances in the body that cause the symptoms of asthma and allergic rhinitis. Levocetirizine is in a class of medications called antihistamines. These types of medications work by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. It's also important to note that all medications carry the risk of side effects. So by taking this, you should understand that there are risks involved, even if you don't end up exp...

I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM ALLERGY ON MY FACE FOR WHICH I HAVE BEEN GIVEN MOTRE-L TABLETS. I HAVE ALREADY DONE A COURSE OF 10 DAYS AND STILL NO RESPONSE IS VISIBLE AND NOW MY DOCTOR HAS GIVEN ME IT FOR NEXT TEN DAYS. OTHER THAN THIS I WAS RECOMMENDED BELAR-FORTE FOR 2 DAYS . IT HELPED TO A CERTAIN EXTENT BUT MY ALLERGY REAPPEARED AFTER THAT.PLEASE HELP ## Hi, Swati! Do you have any idea what's causing the allergy? Figuring that out and eliminating the culprit would be the best solution. It must be something that you became exposed to around the time of the first reaction and keep being exposed to. Have you been eating or drinking anything new? Are you using a new soap or hygiene product?

Does anyone who uses the Foradil aerolizer, who also has arthritis, find it extremely difficult to open the package to get a capsule? ## I spent about 8 minutes trying to peel the six "peel away" seals off my Foradil. I have used the product for over a year, but this last batch seems to have defective adhesive or something,,,I think if you hold the packet in your hand and let it warm up to your body temp it makes it easier, but still a pain. ## I do not have arthritis, but I find the new Foradil packaging to be very aggravating. It can be very tedious and time-consuming to get the capsule out of the package. ## I've lately found it easier to deal with the packaging if I use scissors to cut along the perforated edges of each sleeve of capsules. The only issue then is that i...
