red gray blue capsule ## I am also needing the name and purpose of this pill, I found it hidden in a family members car and they should not be taking anything but their heart and diabetes medicine. Very concern. ## i found this in my car after some people were in it. i am trying to find out what this pill is for and why they would have it. thx. ## Tylenol Rapid release ## I believe the marking you are looking at is Ty 500, the stylized why can easily be mistaken for an r, and the identification provided by Steve is correct. It contains 500mgs of Acetaminophen in a rapid release formulation. It's sold under the brand name Tylenol Rapid Release. NDC 50580-0488). Inactive Ingredients: - Benzyl Alcohol - Butylparaben - Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium - Starch, Corn - D&c Yellow No. 10...

I just started taking Lyrica. First, I was told by my doctor to take 75 mg for 3 evenings, and then I was to increase the dosage on the 4th day. I was to take another 75 mg in the a, so I would be up to 150 mg. The problem is that I woke up during the night after the 4th day, 3 times with a zapping sensation. It felt like my chest area. I decided to stop taking it, and I called my doctor and he wants me to continue with it. He said to take the 75 mg for a week, and then increase it again. He wants to give it a chance. The reason why I'm taking this is because I had a spinal fusion 1/9/08 at levels 3-4, 4-5, and since the surgery I have numbness and a weird feeling in both my legs. The back is better, but I am scared about my legs. Has anyone with a fusion been given this drug for pr...

i was on Tramadol for 3 months took three per day they got rid of my pain but i suffered from chronic constipation, so the doc told me to stop and put me on 5 mg morphine patches but its not giving any relief to the pain so question can i put two patches on ## Absolutely not without consulting your doctor first. Too much risk is involved not to mention it's a controlled medication and if you use more than prescribed you will be considered abusing the drug. Speak first to your medical professional before self-medicating. ## You definitely should not adjust your dosage, without consulting your doctor, as was already stated.

Re-Post that might give you a glimmer of hope to get through this Thanksgiving Day Weekend: Go to this "CDC" Post, read it, and then take it to your Doctor! "The 2016 guidelines proved immensely influential in shaping policy - fueling a push by insurers, state medical boards, politicians and federal law enforcement to curb prescribing of opioids. The fallout, doctors and researchers say, is hard to overstate: a crisis of untreated pain. Many patients with severe chronic pain saw their longstanding prescriptions rapidly reduced or cut off altogether, sometimes with dire consequences, like suicide or overdose as they turned to the tainted supply of illicit drugs. Federal agencies had tried to course correct, making it clear that the older voluntary guidelines were not intended...

Want to make sure pharmacy gave me the correct medication. I had taken some pain medication that has M367 but today the pharmacy gave me a pill with the letter "n" on the left side and "358" on the right side of the score line. On the other side it has number "10". Just want to make sure I got the correct medication for pain. Not more or less of what my Dr has been giving me. I take a 10mg dose. I am supposed to take 10mg of hydrocodone and 325mg of acetaminophen. Want to make sure that is what I got today. ## I had to double check also. They are hydro 10s. No worries. ## RE: n358 hydrocodone Why do people always say "I found this pill"?... B.S. why can't they just say I got this pill, trying to make sure it's what I think it is or bought or whate...

looks like OTC tylenol but has no markings or imprints ## If there is no imprint, it is going to be very difficult to narrow down what this is. We can rule it out as being a U.S. prescription medication, since they all must have markings to enable their identification. However, it could be an over the counter item or even a foreign medication. Was it found in the U.S. or elsewhere? ## i found a white rather thick white oblong pill with no markings on either side. it is smooth. I was just wondering what it could be. ## Could be Tylenol 3.. not from USA, not regulated by FDA ## Large off-white oblong thick pill with no marking or scoring. Can't identify. What might this be? ## Could it be a vitamin with no marks?

cant find any pharmacies in 32097 who have norco 10/325. do you no where to get it? ## Having the same problem. It's the whole state not just Jacksonville. They're saying it will hopefully not be an issue starting November. Who knows. I'm having to go days without my medication because of this. I just pray it comes in ASAP. ## Hello i wanted to know if you had any luck. My mother has bone disease and she really need her norco 10s. Thank you ## I'd actually advise everyone to not get their hopes up for November, either. From what's been said, it seems the shortage started due to relabeling, since this medication was changed to a schedule 2 at the beginning of this month, but we are also into the time of year where there is almost always a shortage of most controlled s...

Can I give my 10 year old son a Flustat capsule to drink? ## Hello, Sheugnet! How are you? Flu-stat is listed as containing Paracetamol, Chlorpheniramine, Phenylephrine, Vitamin C and Caffeine. That said no, the caffeine can be dangerous for children and this isn't dosed for children that young. It could make him sick and cause a toxic overdose. Its typical side effects, as listed by the U.S. FDA may include nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia and nervousness. Please consult his doctor, before giving him any medication. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I weigh 75kg, 27 year old male, I accidentally (misread) and took 3 flustat pills at once, am I in any danger? ## From what age can u drink Flustat? ## I gave my 9 year old son one flustat before i read this know im worrie...

Hi, I found this white tablet (not a capsule). It’s a bit narrower and longer than most. Broken in half, the inside is a light brown color and has a peculiar smell (inside, once broken). An exhaustive search online yields nothing that tells me what it definitely could be. Anyone know? ## Btw it’s more of an oblong shape than oval, similar to an excedrin or tylenol, just slightly narrower and slightly longer. ## Also, it has no markings. No imprint or numbers or anything like that. It also lacks any kind of scoring. ## Hello Jimbo, In the United States all perscription and over the counter drugs are required by the FDA to have an imprint. If the pill that you found does not have an imprint it is possible that it is some sort of vitamin, energy pill or a foreign drug. If you a...

Has anyone tried the Clovidol brand of Tramadol 100mg sr? ## Clovidol is manufactured in India and is listed as containing 100mgs of Tramadol in a time released formulation. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

Anyone know any pain management doctors in Yankton South Dakota? I have fibromyalgia, arthritis, DDD, spinal stenosis and two bulging discs in my back. In winter the pain becomes unbearable due to the cold. My GP prescribes me 30 x 5mg hydrocodone a month. My old pain doctor gave me 4 x 10 mg a day, but I am no longer close to her.

As you know from the topic I am addicted to tramadol er 100mg twice a day. I want to come out from addiction. I tried so many times but failed due to pain I also can't sleep at all please help me. Please let me know other medicines for the replacement of tramadol. Thank you ## Tramadol is a mild opioid, so anything equivalent that you could try to replace it with would also carry the risk of being habit forming. Have you sought medical help for this issue? Usually, a slow taper is needed to help prevent the worst of the withdrawal symptoms, which may include nausea, fever, chills, diarrhea, depression, insomnia and rebound pain. ## Tramadol is not mild in any form or fashion. Dosed out on 50 mg is huge, make no mistakes. You can see this because doctors say nothing regarding its dow...

Anyone else experiencing this side effect? Not a normal topic of discussion for me with anyone but my doctor. I found this drug to be very helpful with easing pain, no sedating effect, BUT after taking this medication discovered I was unable to acheive orgasm. It took me a while to figure out it was the Tramadol causing the problem. ## I have been taking Tramadol for about 5 years for back pain. I am getting better - down to one pill per day unless I have a flare up! Unfortunately, I have not been able to achieve an orgasm either - it's been about 3 to 4 years for me. Like you, I believe it is the Tramadol, but, I'm stuck. I haven't found anything else to ease the pain that doesn't have alot of other side effects. Thanks for sharing! I thought I was the only one! ## Than...

I need a picture of the oxycodone pill that is green and round with the imprint of GG 44. Thank you. ## Hi Tim, The problem is, there is no Oxycodone tablet with that imprint. A round green pill marked with GG over 44 on one side and blank on the other, is reportedly identified as a 25mg Amitriptyline hydrochloride tablet; an antidepressant.
