What drugs are in Donna Pb? Is it still available? ## SE-Donna PB Hyos Oral contains several medications: Belladonna alkaloids (made up of the drugs hyoscyamine, atropine, and scopolamine) + Phenobarbital. Belladonna alkaloids help to reduce the symptoms of stomach and intestinal cramping. They work by slowing the natural movements of the gut and by relaxing the muscles in the stomach and intestines. As far as availability goes, from what I can tell your best bet would be to ask your local pharmacy, since there is a lack of information online regarding this. If this brand is not available I would suggest looking for the two main ingredients listed above to aid in your search. I hope this helps!

I am trying to get a prescription program. I am on medicare. None of the prescrption programs cover the drug listed above. It is either not covered or is a huge amount. Hoping my gastro doctor can help. Any ,suggestions? ## There usually aren't programs for generics, because they are generally cheaper since they are generic medications. There are, however, two programs that provide assistance for the name brand, but I am not certain of all of the exact terms. Here is the contact information: Rx Outreach Medications 800-769-3880 Xubek Pharmaceutical Services 866-699-8239 Is there anything else I can help with?

I take Levsin under the tongue for BPH. The NIH website says people over 65 (aka myself) should usually not take Levsin because it is not as safe and effective as other available medications. Is this something I need to address, or is it not important? ## I found the statement that you were referring to: "talk to your doctor about the risks and benefits of taking hyoscyamine if you are 65 years of age or older. Older adults should not usually take hyoscyamine because it is not as safe and may not be as effective as other medications that can be used to treat the same condition." Unfortunately, in any medical situation, a patient has to be their own best advocate. Doctors often prescribe medications according to their experience with how well something has worked for other patien...

a person using Dicyclomine Hydrochloride and Dextropropoxyphene Hydrochloride regularly , if he stops taking the above said salts for 3 days, will blood test and urine test show the presence of the salts. ## The Dicyclomine isn't something that is tested for on standard drugs tests, since it doesn't fall into the relevant classes that are commonly abused. The Dextropropoxyphene, however, is a narcotic and most of the drug in this class can be detected for approximately 4 days, after taking them. However, the time frame will vary, depending on the individuals metabolism, overall health, activity levels and many other factors. Is there anything else I can help with?

what is the side effect of buscopan in early pregnancy? ## Buscopan contains a form of Butylscopolamine, it is used as an intestinal antispasmodic and, since it is not commonly used in the U.S., I am sorry, but I don't have any information available on whether or not it is safe to use during pregnancy. The only thing I can suggest is talking to your doctor about your concerns. Are there any other questions?

i have recurring stones in my bile duct. have a prescription for buscopan...8 at once if having a bad attach, does that sound correct? ## Buscopan contains the active ingredient Hyoscine, it is used as an abdominal antispasmodic. And no, that doesn't sound right, on their website about the medication, the manufacturer lists the dosing as 2 tablets, taken 4 times a day, rather than all at once. Have you tried asking your doctor about it?
