skin radish due to iching on body unable to bear . suggest medicine. ## Iching on body causes radish line on skin and after some time it disappears . Is it due to Drug METNAX which i use to take for burning sensation and pain on foot and lower part of knee.I am diabetic since 25 years and 75 years old ## Have you consulted a doctor? They are the only person who would be able to help you get to the root of the problem. It could be caused from the Metanx or something in it, or it could be entirely unrelated and a definitive answer can't be given from just the limited information in a post on the internet. Are you on any other medications?

Is there a cheaper substitute for this? I am a dialysis patient and have some peripheral neuropathy. I have been taking this vitamin for years but it is too expensive for me. ## Metanx is a nutritional supplement that contains B vitamins, specifically, 2.8mgs of B9, 25mgs of B6 and 2mgs of B12, in specific forms. Thus, you'd need something that contains them in the same amounts. Have you tried talking to your doctor or pharmacist to see if there are any alternatives available? There is no generic, that I know of, but there are other products that contain these same nutrients. ## Hi, I work with Metanx. Maybe I can help? There is no generic for Metanx. Metanx has a unique formulation of the active forms of folate (l-methylfolate), B6 (Pyridoxal 5' phosphate) and B12 (Methylcobala...

recently i went for a urine drug test to be hired for a job, i forgot to tell the drug tester i am diabetic and my medication is glucovance 5/500 i have not recieved word from the job and am growing concerned my medication gave my test bad results. my question is will the diabetic medication glucovance 5/500 have an effect on my urine drug test? ## Neither the Gluburide, nor the Metformin in Glucovance are known to cause false positives on drug tests. However, if you are having any type of kidney problem, that could cause false positives. Where you taking anything else?

my tablet has no writing on it and tastes disgusting, is this metformin? ## If there are no markings on it, then I am sorry, but it is going to be difficult to say what the tablet contains. All U.S. manufactured prescription medications are required, by law, to have unique markings, so they can be identified. Where was it obtained? Was it from a U.S. pharmacy or elsewhere?
