I had fever and I took paracetamol and i got relieved. after that I have colds and feel that I have phlegm in my chest for 6 days now. I cough sometimes. I want to know if Natravox is good for my colds. ## Have you consulted a doctor? Amoxicillin with Clavulanic Acid, commonly prescribed in the U.S. under the brand name Augmentin, is an antibiotic that will only work to treat or prevent infections. This means it can help if your problem is caused by an infection, but it should not be used for anything else. A cold is caused by a virus and this will not do anything to treat viruses.

I want to know side effects. Am having no problems now just relief from arthritis pain ## Morphine is a narcotic analgesic, the ER means it is a time released formulation, the generic for MS Contin. Its side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, constipation and dizziness. More details: You should also be informed that, with long-term use, Morphine can cause some swelling in the joints of some people, so after you are on it for awhile, there is a slight possibility that it could make your pain worse. If you experience this, please be sure to contact your doctor immediately. Is there anything else I can help with?

is there a difference between the oxy-IR 5 mg pills vs. the capsules. I have a bad reaction to the pills but not the caps. Thanks. ## What type of reaction did you have? There can be differences in generic medications, they are allowed to differ, in the active ingredient, from the name brand by as much as plus or minus 20%. For most people, such fluctuations are not a problem, but some people are very sensitive and can experience problems. In addition, the chemical salts also do not have to be exactly identical, so if the manufacturer of the pills used one that is slightly different, that could also have caused your problem. Are there any other questions?

what kind of pill is this? what oblong with AP 110. ## Does the "AP" look sort of like an upside-down V with the smaller p inside of it? If so then that's the Advance Pharmaceutical logo. From what I understand this is an over-the-counter product, and it is alleged to contain Acetaminophen. The only challenge with OTC products is that they are not required to carry unique inscriptions, and that means that there is not a sure way to know 100% what the pill is. I hope this helps!

What is the difference between Tramadol Hydrochloride BP.....and Tramadol Hydrochloride LP. When browsing some of these online med sites, I came across the 2 suffixes. For example Tramadol HCL BP 100 mg sold as green capsules.....and Tramadol HCL LP 100 mg also sold in green capsule form. Thanks for the info. ## I'm no chemist but I believe it has something to do with protein binding. Maybe someone in this forum could explain it better. ## Some places just use those to denote the chemical salt that it is derived from, since Tramadol would be a generic and doesn't have to be exactly the same substance as the name brand Ultram would. The differences do cause problems for some people, so they might prefer a certain specific one that they know works better for them than another. Mos...

Our cat started to limp on right front leg about 2 months ago. She is 11 years and is about 16 pounds. She limps worse after she jumps of the chair. The above medication was perscribed by the doc. What is it and is it safe? ## The active ingredient in this is Torbugesic, it is an opiod that is used to treat pain. Unfortunately, I am not very knowledgeable about veterinary medications, their uses and possible safety concerns. The only information I can find says that it can cause slight ataxia and sedation. It is a form of Butorphanol: Have you tried contacting the vet to ask questions?

i go to a methadone clinic and have been going for 7 yrs.they switch to a differant lab and since the very first test i took it was positive for oxycodone.i thought it was a mix up but the second month it happen again!i do not take anything but methadone and tylenol sometimes.why is this happening?the way im taking the test is a oral swab.please let me know!!!its making it very hard on me there not to metion im trying to do better yet there making it sound like im not!!!thank u sooo much! ## It is, more than likely, the fault of the type of test that their new lab is doing, especially if the switch was done, because the new lab is cheaper, which means they are using a cheaper type of test. The cheaper a test is can mean the more often it registers false positives. Methadone is a synthet...

If Darvacet is pulled out of circulation by FDA, is is safe or harmful to take Propoxyphen Apap for pain, being it is a generic of Darvacet? Only take one as needed, not taken for chronic pain. ## The recall includes ALL medications containing Propoxyphene, not just the name brands, which would be Darvocet, this no, it is not safe to continue taking the generic, Acetaminophen and Propoxyphene. They have all been recalled and are will no longer be available on the market, this means those using it will have to speak to their doctors and switch to something else, anyway. The FDA has forced the recall, because Propoxyphene is cardio-toxic. Fortunately, the effects it has on the heart only last while you are taking it, it goes back to normal, when the medication is discontinued. However, it...

capsule pill, maroon and blue, shape #3 ## So far there are no matches based on the physical description which you posted. Could you please post back with what country, web site, or store you obtained this from? Extra clues might help with better detective work… Thanks! ## i was given this in califorina at a doctors office. i was on hydrocodone and was given hydrodocusate instead. i am trying to find out exactly what it is. ## Those additional details make sense. Although not much can be found on Hydrodocusate, there are more details available for Docusate. That may be very similar or the same to the medication which you were given. It also makes sense because Docusate is used as a stool softener and laxative, which may help constipation ... a side effect of narcotic pain killers ...

i have taken percocet and was wanting to make sure i will pass my urin test. i am prescribed oxycodone15. ## The active ingredients in Percocet are Oxycodone and Acetaminophen and the only one of those that is tested for on a urine test is the Oxycodone, so it will be detected as that. However, the problem you may run into is not having the proper levels of Oxycodone in your system, that they expect to see. Many pain management clinics use tests that show the level of the metabolites that are present in a person's urine, because this lets them know whether someone is abusing their medications, by taking more than prescribed, or if someone isn't taking them, at all. Thus, you could still fail the test if you haven't been taking yours as prescribed. Are there any other questio...

I have an oval shaped white pill with the only marking being one that looks like the square root symbol. I was told it is hydrocodone 7.5 mg / 325. I have never seen one like this, any ideas would be appreciated. ## Do you know if it is something from the U.S. or not? There are Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen tablets that have a V logo on them that looks like the square root symbol, but they also have additional numbers on the opposite side of the tablet. The white one that meets this description has the V on one side and the numbers 3596 on the other side, it is a 7.5/750mg tablet. There is also another one that has the V logo, with the numbers 3598, which is a 10/650mg tablet. And V 3595, which is a 7.5/650mg tablet. However, there aren't any U.S. prescription products with just the V o...
