At one point I had over a few years of spare medicine. I let my supplies dwindle although I knew this day was coming. Well I learned this terrible news yesterday, he's gone at the end of the month, I had an appointment to see him next month. I don't need anything for at least a year, but I seriously doubt I will be able to find another to prescribe both Xanax & Soma ## Visited my Doc before he is gone, he's got a new place lined up even though he should just enjoy his life & retire. Stocked up on a year on Medicine. Of course a controlled prescription is only good for 6 months which is fine with me. Best family Doctor I've ever had, he listens to patients. But he is a nut, big Ivermectin & Hydroxychloroquine guy, probably bleach too as Trump will bring back b...

I found a small white pill nothing on one side & underlined H on the other ## Where was it found? This is kind of a vague imprint, which leads me to suspect that it is probably something available over the counter. I haven't found a listing, yet, but I'll post back if I do. Does anyone else recognize this tablet? ## found a white tablet plain on one side and a capital H (underscored) on the other side. No other information. Can you help. ## I found the same thing too; on the floor near my prescriptions. Small white pill, no imprint on the back & a capitalized H on the other side with a line under the H. No other identifying marks. I cannot find a match or any information online. Does anyone know what this is? ## I found the same one too. I guess I'll just flush them ...

Has anyone used CBD broad spectrum (non thc) gummies for anxiety? I am having A LOT of anxiety after weaning off of bisoprolol (beta blocker) 9 weeks ago. I've never suffered from anxiety my whole life, so I know it's from this med. I was given a PRN script of xanax (low dose, .25 mg) from my doctor to take until the anxiety passes from this BB withdrawal. But the problem is the anxiety, for some reason, has ramped up the last 2 weeks. In the last 13 days, I've needed to take 1 xanax a day for 10 of 13 of those days. Looking for an alternative to xanax until this anxiety passes, I decided to try CBD gummies. I have only been on them for a day, but it didn't really help at all, and I ended up taking a xanax at the end of the night. My question is: do the non-thc CBD gummi...

I'm seeking insights and reviews on Teva Lorazepam and its comparison with Leading Pharma's version. There's a notable divide in user experiences. Some report Leading Pharma Lorazepam as being less effective or having no effect, possibly due to variations in the active ingredient, leading to side effects or adverse reactions in certain cases. While there are those who recommend Teva Lorazepam for its efficacy, others find Leading Pharma's version more suitable. Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to try Teva Lorazepam since it's not available in my area – no local pharmacies dispense it. My experience with other brands, post the discontinuation of Qualitest, hasn't been successful in finding a comparable alternative. I'm particularly intere...

Can primatene tablets cause a false positive for methamphetamine on a hair follicle test? ## How long does it take primatene tablets to leave your system?

My husband is prescribed tramadol, he takes 50mg tablets, 1 pill 4 times daily. But for the last 2 months they said his urine test at the Dr is negative for tramadol. He has taken them every day as prescribed for 2 years as part of his pain regiment for his auto immune diseases. The doctor said if his lab work next month is negative of tramadol again, he will dismiss him as a patient. My husband has 5 auto immune diseases and it took 3 years to get to a doctor who could figure out what was going on and get him on treatments. If he's dismissed, he will lose his biologics treatment for the illness, not just pain relief. Does anyone know why his tramadol is not showing up in the lab work??? I'm at a loss! ## 2 possible reasons...Someone is swapping out his meds with a look-alike or...

propoxy-n/apap ## Medications lose effectiveness after their expiration date and should be discarded. ## i have a perscribtion bottle that the docter has perscribed to me on 11/19/08 and the use before date gives me 11/18/09. i want to know if i take that medication will it affect me im feeling bodey ach . the perscribed medication is tramadol. ## Wrong. The expiration date just guarantees potency by the manufacturer, usually 2 years from date of manufacture. At one time only applied to antibiotics. Gov. couldn't find anything else to control so off to the races. Took a Darvocet-N 100 yesterday that had a 1994 expiration date. Got relief.

I'm having joint pain in my hands and toes while on Mounjaro. It started 3 days after the first 2.5mg injection. The skin feels tender in these areas as well. Is anyone having this issue? ## The medication guide for MOUNJARO does not specifically mention joint pain in the hands and toes as a known side effect. However, it's important to note that individual responses to medications can vary, and some side effects may not be listed or fully understood. Joint pain may be associated with type 2 diabetes. While joint pain is not a direct symptom of diabetes itself, it can occur as a result of various factors related to the condition. Here are a few potential reasons why joint pain may be experienced by individuals with type 2 diabetes: 1. Inflammation: Diabetes can contribute to sys...

Has anyone taken Paxlovid for Covid? I was prescribed this medication and could only take 2 of the 5 day prescription due to the awful side effects. Number one was the medication made me feel worse than I felt before taking it. Number two.... It literally felt and tasted like someone was continuously spraying hairspray down my throat for hours until the dose wore off. For me, the side effects were much too harsh and bothersome and unfortunately, couldn't complete the 5 day prescription. Has anyone else had any experience taking this medication? ## I was prescribed Paxlovid for Covid in August. Within 3 hours, I felt like a new woman! Seriously, the cough lessened up, the fatigue lessened up and I could breathe again. The milder symptoms did persist for about a month or so though. Th...

Walmart tells me every month they are out of stock on Adderall. ## Pharmacies are limited as to how much of each controlled substance they can order and have on hand each month. Once they run out, they cannot order more, until the next month. It's really just a matter of trying various pharmacies to see who may still have it in stock. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia, nervousness and anorexia. What area do you live in? Perhaps someone that lives nearby can suggest a pharmacy. ## Does anyone know what pharmacy has 30 mg Adderall generic in Atlanta, GA (30016)? I cant find it. ## I can't find adderall in the Woburn, Ma area. I always went to CVS, but they keep saying...

I lost my ex son-in-law on 1/20 -- he was murdered. A week later my sister dies of brain cancer. I have pyloric spasm which is exasperated by stress. I went to the doctor the day my sister passed away and proceeded to explain the deep loss I felt in my family. To which she replies "these things happen and you just need to deal with it. No compassion, no I'm sorry for your loss. No 'how can I help you deal with the stress'. The last time I went in I filled out a mental form which asked the question how many days a week do you feel like you would be better off dead and I said 7. When I tried to explain that my life is compromised by extreme pain and constant nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, she told me that she does not put herself in her patient's shoes. Needless to sa...

Is Carbidopa + Levodopa a life long medication, or can it be stopped at some time in the future?

I was on bisoprolol for 2 years, and weaned off (with my cardiologist's ok) due to side effects (lightheadedness and low level anxiety). It's been 9 weeks. The lightheadedness is much better. But the last 2 weeks, the anxiety has gone through the roof: nervousness, anxiousness, edginess! My PCP gave me 1 script of xanax to help me get through the bad days until the anxiety subsides (low dose, .25 mg). And up until now, I've only had to take it a few days a week, every few weeks. Out of the last 11 days, I had to take a xanax 9 out of them. Up until I started taking bisoprolol, I never suffered from any form of anxiety. Or ever needed to take any type of benzo, for any reason. I am feeling pissed off, defeated. If anyone went through this and is feeling better, I could really...

please share your experience with this never seen before, less effective drug that two different pharmacy's have given to me in last two months. they make me fall asleep! ## Hi shaun, When you switch brand names or manufacturers, the drug itself doesn't change, but rather the binders or fillers that they put with it. Certain "inactive" ingredients that may or may not be present in each brand, are actually detrimental to how the drug is metabolized and used by your body. Because everyone is different, your body may respond favorably with one medication and not the other (even if they're both Adderall Xr), due to how you feel or based on whatever side effects present themselves. Although I haven't taken this medication, I can say that they probably have an array of...

Does the expiration date mean that the product is not effective if used after it?

I am using softovac (bowel regulator) daily night 1 spoon, are there any side effects of forming stones in pancreas etc? ## Softovac is a laxative that contains: cassia fistula 0.5 gm, fennel , ispaghula 2 gm, liquorice 0.25 gm, senna 0.75 gm WIth those ingredients, it is a supplement, rather than a medication and the side effect profiles are not studied for it. The only thing regularly reported is some abdominal cramping. However, you should know that if you use it every night for a long period of time, your body may become dependent on it and if you stop using it, you may be unable to have a bowel movement without it.
