Found a white oblong pill in my son's pocket...Its inscribed PH and then a verticle line and then 043. Any ideas what it could be? ## I can't find any listings for this in our U.S. prescription drug resources. However, I can tell you that similar tablets with the PH marking, followed by additional numbers have turned out to be over the counter products. Have you tried just asking your son about it? ## Its my intention to ask him but I would like to know what Im dealing with first so I know if what he says is true. ## Ibuprofen ## Its ibuprofen. im holding one in my hand ## It's a sinus decongestant. The brand name is Mucinex. ## yes it is in fact Mucinex and there is nothing to worry about you can't get high off them ## Mucinex from Big Lots

Took acetamin w/cod 1/2 gr #3 4 hours ago but it did not relieve pain. Can I take one more? Instructions say take every. 8 hours. Or shouuld I take 800 mg of ibuprofen instead. ## Hi Suee, Since the instructions say to take the Acetaminophen/Codeine every 8 hours- I would follow that and just take the Ibuprofen. I checked and there shouldn't be any negative reactions when taking Acetaminophen/Codeine and Ibuprofen in the same day. Keep in mind, I am not a doctor so any advice given is solely based on my opinion and research.

I found these white oval pills in a coat jacket. They are about 3/4 inch long. They are stamped either I (capital letter) 9 or if turned around 6 I (capital letter). There are no other markings on either side and they are not scored.

I was prescribed AMOX/K CLAV 875 mg for a sinus infection - one tablet every 12 hrs for 10 days (seems to be helping clear the sinus infection). I currently have a bright red, angry rash (very itchy!) on my arms, legs, back, neck, and ears... The rash began 2 days ago, with redness and itchiness on my knees, inner forearms (esp at elbow bend), and one side of my neck. We are on a beach vacation, so when the rash began, I thought I must have missed putting sunscreen on those spots... As the rash intensified (still just in those areas, angry red, slightly swollen, itchy areas) I thought I was having a reaction to too much sun (polymorphous light eruption?) and was taking ibuprofen to help with swelling and hydrocortisone cream to help with itching. Last night and today, the rash had sprea...

small pink oval scored tablet with 1 on left side and 2 on right side. ## I discovered that the oval tablet has "I" not 1 on the left side and "2" on the right side and learned that it is ibuprophen unlike the round IB tablet. ## Based on the description provided, I can also confirm this pill to be identified as Ibuprofen (200mg), manufactured by Major Pharmaceuticals Inc. NOTE: the score line is partial, in that, it is only a hyphen in between the "I-2" Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug used for relief of symptoms of arthritis, primary dysmenorrhea, fever, and as a mild pain reliever.

I am taking melfene 200mg i have gained weight since i have been on then can it be a side affect ## Hello, I'm having trouble finding any information on a drug by the name of Melfene, is it possible that you meant to say Melfen? If so, my research tells me that the main ingredient in Melfen is Ibuprofen- a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication used to treat fever and pain, including pain caused by headache, toothache, arthritis, cold or flu, migraine, or menstrual cramps. To my knowledge, weight gain is not a side effect of Ibuprofen. Everyone does react to medication differently however. Have you made any changes to your diet that could be the culprit? Or are you taking any other medications? You can learn more about this drug on the page for Ibuprofen Details

round orange pill with L-2 on one side ## I found a bright orange round pill with a P on one side and blank on the other in my 17 year old daughter room,, should I be worried ## I believe the marking on the first pill being asked about might have actually been I-2, as in a capital i. If so, then that is a 200mg Ibuprofen tablet that's available over the counter, it's a generic or store brand of Advil or Motrin. Learn more Ibuprofen details here. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation. As to the round, orange tablet with just a P on it, I can't be certain, since that imprint is very obscure, but there is an over the counter laxative that meets this description, it's a generic or store brand for Senokot. Can anyone else confirm that?

my friend brought me back some of these from mexico, are they ok to take for severe neck pain? ## I've used Robax Gold occasionally for the past couple of years and have found it incredibly helpful.

Is there any complications with talking dayquil and then etodolac? ## In regards to this, Dayquil actually does not contain Ibuprofen, it contains Acetaminophen, with Dextromethorphan and Phenylephrine. Learn more Acetaminophen details here and there are more Dextromethorphan details here and more Phenylephrine details here. That said, I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between the ingredients in the DayQuil and the Etodolac, but you should always double check such information to be certain. Learn more Etodolac details here. The main issues that I can see that may occur would be due to a possible potentiation of the side effects, so you may experience more nausea, dizziness and stomach irritation. Are there any comments or questions?

would like 100 of ibuprofen and hydrocodone for shoulder issues ## I'm sorry, but this website does not manufacture, prescribe, nor sell any medications or products, it is an information only website. What treatment has your doctor recommended? What dosage of these medications do you currently tai? The Hydrocodone is a narcotic, so even though it's generally coupled with Acetaminophen, it still has the potential to be habit forming and can cause the risk of serious side effects.

Is it safe for my wife to take Ibuprofen? She had two small stomach ulcers 12 years ago caused by H Pylori bacteria ## @Richard, Based on my research, regular use of aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, or other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can actually raise your risk for stomach ulcers. Although taking NSAIDs once in a while is safe for most people. Is Ibuprofen something your wife uses often? ## She just needs effective painkillers for a short time as she recovers from a hysterectomy. She started on paracetamol + codeine, but suffered problems with constipation from the codeine.
