metichol ## What is Metichol? Does it work? ## choline ipnositol pills ## @rafael rodriguez, Like Juan Hidalgo suggested, the medication your are referring to is also known as Choline Inositol. According to Livestrong.com, Choline is related to the family of B vitamins. It protects the liver from building up fat and reduces overall cholesterol. Inositol works in conjunction with choline to prevent the accumulation of fats in the liver. Additionally, helps the body utilize the nutrients in food. Due to their synergistic nature, Inositol and Choline are commonly found in supplements together. Some people take Inositol and Choline supplements to naturally supplement their efforts for overall health and cholesterol reduction, says "Contemporary Nutrition." Consult your physician pri...

I am suffering from Gluacoma and I am prescribed Nuroday 1500 once daily. What are the benefits from taking this? ## Nuroday is just a nutritional supplement that contains a form of vitamin B12, which is Methylcobalamin, but it is believed to help with some nerve problems. However, I can't tell you what it is expect to do for glaucoma. Have you asked the prescribing doctor? If you don't know much about it, here's a link to learn more Methylcobalamin details here.

when is felicita OD prescribed by the doctor? any medicine which can be advised for D3 and B12 deficiency? ## Well, Felicita-OD can be used to treat a B12 deficiency, since one of the ingredients in it is Methylcobalamin, which is a form of vitamin B12. You can gather some more Methylcobalamin details here. Along with that, it also contains benfotiamine, alpha lipoic acid, inositol and chromium. And as to the vitamin D deficiency, you'd need a supplement for it, there are many on the market, so you should ask your doctor which would be the best one for you to use. Are there any other questions?

detailed- effects/side effects ## I can't find any detailed information on Vibrania, other than that it's listed as being some type of vitamin supplement, it may contain a complex of vitamins, or just a form of B12, I'm not sure. That said, there really aren't a lot of details to give you, in light of that, other than the fact that nutritional supplements, especially those that contain B12, have been known to cause nausea in some people that take them. Has this been prescribed for you? And you can learn more vitamin details here.

Hi, I am saikrishna .I am having low resistance power.Can i use supradyn tablets.If use how many days i want to use it.Please reply to me...... ## Hi saikrishna, May I ask what you are referring to when you say that your having "low resistance power"? Supradyn tablets appear to just be your typical multivitamin supplement with added ginseng or Co Q10, generally prescribed for treating vitamin deficiency in patients. Also when it comes to multivitamins, there's no time limit or specific number of days that you are required to take it for, as this is going to vary greatly from patient to patient depending on whether or not you really do have any vitamin deficiencies. Have you had a blood test done recently to help determine which vitamins or minerals you might need more of? ##...

Beige oblong pill imprint Q's on both sides. ## Hi reed, From what I could gather, a white oblong coated pill scored with QS in the middle of both sides, is believed to be "Smartburn"; a dietary supplement for weight loss. I haven't found a photo to verify the accuracy of this claim, but that description seems to be nearly identical to yours. I hope this helps!

Consultant psychiatrist has prescribed Felicita OD for my daughter as she was not behaving well. Kindly let me know how this tablet work and how much time a person should take this and what are the side effects of this tablet. ## Felicita-OD is a nutritional supplement that contains a variety of vitamins and minerals, so it isn't actually a medication, at all. Learn more vitamin details here. Thus, it hasn't been tested for side effects as is done with actual medications and there's really no time limit on how long someone should take it, as long as they aren't taking more than directed. From what I can find, some of the nutrients it contains are benfotiamine, Methylcobalamin, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Inositol and I think there are a couple more, but I can't find another l...

What is Folbic used for besides vitamin deficiency? ## It is also used to treat some heart and vessel diseases as it has been shown that it can reduce the chemical hyestene (sp.?) which can lower blood pressure and help the heart and blood vessels. ## I am having trouble with my insurance covering Folbic, my heart doctor has prescibed it. Can you suggest any alternatives. Over the counter or other perscription more widley accepted. ## Trish, your best bet is to check with your insurance company, most of them have a drug formulary list that will let you know what they will cover, then you and your doctor can look it over and see if there are any other viable alternatives. ## I want to know why my doctor would prescrib Folbic Acid for me. Is it a generic of Plavix.

What medication for. What disease can cufre? ## It is just a nutritional supplement. Grape seed extract contains a good concentration of Vitamin E, flavonoids and a few other nutrients. However, while some of the nutrients it contains are vital to your overall health, it will not actually cure any disease. It can help with some problems that may be caused by a deficiency in the nutrients it contains, but that's the most it does. Have you been advised to take it?

prescribed for me to help the pains of nerve inflammation [nerve between L5 & S1 ## Methylcobalamin is a form of Vitamin B12, so it is a nutritional supplement. It is often given to people that suffer from nerve pain, because a lack of it can contribute to or cause such conditions. However, as a supplement, the side effect profiles for it have not been studied, as is done for prescription medications, but some people have reported some nausea after taking it.

Ive searched and searched to find out what this pill could be. Even took to a local pharmacy and they could not find it. It's a small/med white oval pill with ONLY the letter C on one side of it. No other markings at all. Can someone please help me figure out how to find out what this is??? Thx!!! ## The imprint it very obscure and I'm guessing the reason that no one has found it is because it is most likely an over the counter product. They are not required to log their imprints with the FDA for identification purposes. I recently had some high dose vitamin C tablets that met this description, so you may have found one of them, or it could be something else. Learn more Vitamin C details here. What is your general location? Some products are regional, so that may narrow it down ...

South African medication Peach elongated oval tablet Markings W on one side EC 4 on other ## Hi Ellie, Is it possible that the number "4" is actually a "1"? I found what would appear to be an identical match, other than the number being "1" instead of "4": "A large, orange, oval/oblong, bi-convex, scored tablet marked EC1 on one side and W on the other is a multi-vitamin." There's not much more info than that in regards to supporting evidence, but this is the only thing that I can find based on your description. I hope this helps!

Does anyone have a list of the ingredients for these PNV-DHA vitamins? I don't have a package insert (and can't even find an online package insert!). Just want to compare these expensive vitamins to the previous Prenatal vitamins I was taking previously. I know the DHA adds Omega 3 fatty acids to the traditional prenatal vitamin. ## The closest matches I'm able to find ingredients for are "PNV-OB-DHA" and "VP-PNV-DHA", but not PNV-DHA in and of itself. If you happen to have an imprint on any of your pills, I can also try looking it up for you using that method. Perhaps with better success. I do however believe that these are all manufactured by the same company. So it may be a good idea to contact Acella Pharmaceutical directly to get more information on thei...

filled with orange powder...no markings on the outside of the capsule ## Sorry, there's really no way to ID a pill without an imprint. All Rx and OTC drugs in the U.S. are required by law to have an imprint; otherwise it could be a vitamin, herbal, energy, diet, foreign or illicit. Do you have any suspicions as to what you think it could be (based on where you found it or whom you may have received it from)?
