I am a 70 yrs old male and recently had a U.A. I consulted my Dr. re the results and he said I have stones in my gall bladder. He prescribed for me Sambong leaf 500 mg tablet 2x a day. After taking them for 5 days (10 tablets) I feel very weak maybe because of urinating continously. I go to the CR every 1 hr. sometimes less than an hour. I drink plenty of water or else I will be dehydrated. Is it possible that all my nutrients and minerals goes w/ my pee.I continue taking the drug after a day stop. Is it OK if I reduce the dosage to once a day. BTW I had a fever on the 5th day and had to take Flu Max every 4 hr. I suspect I had flu thats why I stopped taking Sambong tablet. My Dr. is on vac for 2 mos. ## This is a follow up question re my post last Tue. Oct. 08, 2013. After prolonged us...

Does this med a diuretic? ## Hi Bob, You didn't specify whether or not you were referring to Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen or Oxycodone and Acetaminophen. However, neither of these meds are classified as diuretics. Both are actually narcotic analgesic combinations, used to treat chronic pain. Were you experiencing an increased frequency of urination after taking these pills? I wonder if it could possibly be a side effect. You can learn more about diuretics on the page for Diuretic Details I hope this helps!

My doctor raised my lasix from 12.5 to 40 than raised my atenolol to 2 times a day along with my other meds, now my back hurts both sides by my kidneys, stomach and legs hurting, along with a headache. No appetite, just real thirsty. I have chf hpb, neropothy,diabetes ## Hi, Tim! Sorry about the problems that you're having. Those might be symptoms of dehydration, so the higher dosage of the Lasix could be too much for you. It contains the active ingredient Furosemide, which is a loop diuretic that's used to remove excess fluid from the body, but if you aren't taking in enough, or if it is removing too much, dehydration can occur.

Sir what is the compositional (Salt) difference between Dytor 20 and Tide 10 tabs. Is the strength of both the medicines is same? ## Hi, Rajiv! How are you? Both of these medications contain the active ingredient Torasemide, which is a loop diuretic that's used to help remove excess fluid from the body. However, you listed one as being 20mgs and one being 10mgs, which means they aren't the same strength/dosage. Learn more Torasemide details here. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache and dehydration. Is there anything else I can help with?

If you haven't suffered from unrelieved Meneire's for a long time this comment won't be very helpful Or interesting to you. I have had REALLY severe Meniere's for about 7 years and it has destroyed many aspects of my life. When I get an acute attack instead of lasting a few hours or days mine can last for months, getting somewhat better so that I can walk from bedroom to kitchen, and then sometimes often so bad I have to try to crawl to the bathroom. For extended periods of time, many months, I have been unable to leave my home. Sometimes it comes on so quickly that I immediately lose consciousness. This has led to falling immediately and being knocked unconscious twice and the worst was breaking my ankle very badly. During these long acute periods I can't read, use ...

It is a 12.00 mm, white, oval pill with the imprint R672 on one side and a score (split line) on the other. Spironolactone is used primarily to treat heart failure, ascites in patients with liver disease, low-renin hypertension, hypokalemia and Conn's syndrome. It is commonly referred to simply as "spiro" and marketed primarily under the brand name Aldactone. In most countries, spironolactone is a synthetic, steroidal anti-mineralocorticoid agent with additional ant-iandrogen and weak progestogen properties, as well as some indirect estrogen and glucocorticoid effects, which is u...

Today I recieved this but it is a blue tablet with ( 5 0 3 ) on one side of it and the letter M on the other side. the pharmasicst said that it was a generic brand that has a beta blocker in it. I do not know what that is either. And this is my first time having to take any type of high blood pressure pill. Can you tell me if this is correct or not. I would appreciate any help on this at all. ## Yes, this tablet contains 5mgs of Bisoprolol and 6.25mgs of Hydrochlorothiazide, this combination is commonly used to treat high blood pressure and other cardiac conditions. Bisoprolol is the beta blocker that your pharmacist mentioned and the Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that help to reduce the amount of fluid retained by the body, which in turn also reduces sodium.

They are brown, round and have a 50 on one side and nothing on the other side. ## I located the round brown pill in description to be Bethanechol (Duvoid) 10 mg.

What is it whats it treat a white round pill w rx 673 on one side and a split line on the other side ## Hi greg, Based on the description provided, there are two possible matches I found. The first is a white round pill imprinted with a cursive "R" over "673" on one side and a score/split line on the other. R 673 is identified as Spironolactone 100 mg. This medication is used primarily in the treatment of hypertension. The second is a white round pill imprinted with "RX 173". I just haven't come across a photo to verify the placement of the numbers or existence of a score line. RX 173 is identified as Doxycycline monohydrate 150 mg. This medication is an antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Do either of these sound like a potential match?

But Prazosin is a sympatholytic that's used to treat high blood pressure and anxiety. Learn more Prazosin details here. Which one has been prescribed for you?

Do you mind if I ask who gave it to you for that purpose? ## this medicine was giving to me for acne problems.is it really safe to take?. i am over weight will it help me with what ever exta fluid i have ij the body. ## i am actully a pharmacist i can tell you that spironolactone is effective in reducing any further hair loss and treating acne as both problems are a result of excess androgen levels (male hormone) and the drug has an addition anti-androgenic property so dnt worry. ## I too was pr...
