I want to know information about each drug schedule ## I found a round yellow tablet with the imprints 44 403 on it and I looked it up and it said it was a 'schedule class N controlled substance'. I don't know about any scheduled or class with that. Would you please inform me on what it is? ## It says Glimepiride is a Schedule N drug. What does it mean? I am supposed to take it for my diabetes.

Diabetis Mellitus type-II, osteoarthritis, on antidiabetic drug-glimipride- metformin composition and Sammy-200mg for osteoarthritis. Can Ecosprin be administered and will there be any drug interference? If any intereference, then what to be done? ## Ecosprin AV contains Aspirin and Atorvastatin, it is used as a blood thinner and to help lower cholesterol. And I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between taking it with the antidiabetic medications Glimepiride and Metformin, but you should check with your doctor, or pharmacist to be certain. As to the Sam-E, that is a nutritional supplement, not an actual medication, so it hasn't been checked for interactions with medications, thus I have no information on it, but would suggest checking with your doctor. Are there an...

So about a year ago I was prescribed Metformin because my doctor diagnosed me as pre-diabetic (she also said it would help with my PCOS as well). If I had known she was going to do a spot check on me that morning, I wouldn't have eaten cold pizza for breakfast. Anywho, since then I have been taking 500mg Metformin every night. I had lost 30 pounds with diet and exercise and she said I could stop taking it. Well, I didn't stop and continued taking it. A couple months ago, I decided I would stop taking Metformin and see how everything would be. I soon developed a belly button yeast infection (gross!), I just felt...like crap. But my bloodsugar was normal the entire time. Maybe the belly button thing was a coincidence, who knows. When I stopped the Metformin, I would wake up to a n...

I am diabetic. I am taking Istamet (Sitagliptin 50 mg + Metformin 500 mg) before lunch over the last month and Trivolib, 1 in morning and night ( over the last year). After taking Istamet 50/500, I lost 4 kilos weight. My sugar count is 124 Fasting 143 PP. Can I stop Istamet? When I asked the Dr. he said if I stop then I have to shift to Insulin. I am confused and wonder whether to stop Istamet and do walking and dieting. Pl suggest.

What is an oblong yellow pill with 200 on one side? Trying to find out if this could be Meloxicam 15mg? ## An oblong yellow pill with 200 on one side is reportedly identified as Rezulin (troglitazone) 200mg, marketed for use in treating type-2 diabetes. Product Labeler: Parke-Davis National Drug Code: 00071-0352 Some FDA data shows that this medication was withdrawn from the market in March of 2000, yet additional pill information seems to be quite sparse. There may also be other (more recently manufactured) pills in existence that share a similar depiction, but this was all I could find.

I started taking Januvia together with metformin. After a few days i started getting a burning sensation in my arms. After taking januvia for about 20 days I went back to my doctor and she removed the januvia but I still get a burning sensation. Is the januvia still in my system and how long before it goes out? ## Hello, Meg! How are you doing? Do you still have the burning sensation? What are your normal blood sugar levels? The burning sensation could be due to nerve damage, from the diabetes, rather than a medication side effect. ## I'm from Sri Lanka and I want to use "m 21 Diabetes medicine". How can I get it? How much does it cost? Do any pharmacies carry it in Sri Lanka?

I am Taking Glycomet Gp 1 tablet in the morning and Glycomet 500 mg tablet in night but still my sugar is not in control. Presently my sugar level-empty stomach is 114 and after food is 199. This has been since last 3 months. Kindly advice. ## Are you watching your diet, as well as taking the medication? A medication alone is not enough to control your blood sugar. If you are eating a lot of foods that are laden in fats and/or sugars, it is going to cause your blood sugar to go up. The medication can only help to a certain point, but you also have to help it. You should keep your diet as healthy as possible, which for you means cutting down on fats and sugars. Also, how long after you eat are you checking your blood sugar? Everyone's will be raised, within a few hours of eating. Thi...

can I use mentanx to treat my non-diabetic neuropathy? ## Metanx is just a proprietary formulation of several B vitamins, so there is really nothing that says it can only be used by people who are diabetic. Has your doctor recommended you take it? ## I have not talked it over with the Dr. but will before starting any new meds. Thanks ## I am 81 years old. Non-diabetic. My sciatic nerve pinches and that causes pain in my hips and downward. It also increases if I'm standing or walking. I want to know which medication is best suited for me (becosules or cobadex or neurobion)? Also, please advise a daily dose and duration of treatment.

White oblong pill with c27 on one side blank on other ## Based on the description provided, this pill does not exist in any of the US drug databases; therefore I cannot determine anything, other than the possibility that you may have read the markings wrong, or that this pill was imported from another country. Other than double checking the markings on the pill, I would suggest checking your sources of where you got the pill from. If it is in fact a valid source, I would personally go to your local pharmacy for clarification. If it is not from a valid source, odds are it's not the real thing or it is perhaps an old discontinued pill. Either way, please be so kind to post back your findings so others can reference it for similar searches or to help you locate other possibilities. ## ...

Hi, I'm on an insulin pump gained weight , can I use Jardiance with an insulin pump? My doctor put me in samples of Sanjardy and gave me a script. Insurance won't pay for it, but will pay for Jardiance. Since the pump delivers insulin automatically through out the day is it safe ## It is usually best to follow your doctor's instructions. The dosage in your pump can always be adjusted, if necessary. The FDA warns that these medications may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, and diarrhea. Have you started taking it, yet? If so, how are you doing? ## I have an insulin pump and have been on 10mg for about a month with the need to adjust my basal down on my pump and cut my night time bolus in half. Just started taking 20mg (until they run out t...

What does Metformin 1000 mg look like in all forms? ## Metformin is a generic medication, so it is manufactured by several different companies and they will all have different markings to enable their identification, thus there is really no way I could post what all of them look like and the descriptions. Just to give you a few examples... White, oblong, 93 on one side, 7214 on the opposite. White, oblong, GP 128. White, oblong, Z 71. and white, oval, C 474 are all examples of 1000mg Metformin tablets. Learn more Metformin details here. Do any of these match the tablet you're questioning? If not, then please post back with the markings from it, as well as the basic description and I'll gladly check it for you! ## I received a new prescription of Metformin HCL tabs and they are d...
