I have a sneezing problem from past 5 years. As of now as advised by my family doctory, I'm taking Cetzine tablet whenever i have sneezing problem. Is it ok?. I want to know that it will produce any side effects. If yes, please let me know in details. ## I have throat infection problem which is very senistive. If i drink or eat any cold stuff it leads to Tonsilitis and the initial stage it begins with irritation in the tonsils Should is go for Cetzine? Does it have any side effects? ## Cetirizine is an antihistamine, this used to help prevent allergies. That said, it can help with sneezing that is caused by allergies, however, it will not help with Tonsilitis or sore throats, since these are normally caused by infections and not allergies. Common side effects to this may include: na...
11 REPLIES Updated in CetirizineIs tanganil 500mg available in the US? I have tried several places without luck. ## From what I could gather, Tanganil (acetyl-DL-leucine) does not appear to be available in the US - though this is just my own speculation. However some reports suggest that it may be obtained in other countries such as: France, Lebanon, Tunisia and Vietnam. Interestingly enough, despite my lack of findings on its availability here in the States, The US National Library of Medicine still boasts several articles describing its applications and biology. Have you considered contacting a (compounding) pharmacy as well? ## Listed alphabetically, following the drug name are the drug companies and the associated countries: Acétylleucine / Biogaran Biogaran, France Acétylleucine / Teva Teva Santé, ...
4 REPLIES UpdatedI have 100mg red Seconal Capsules filled in Feb, 2008. The expiration date is July, 09. I keep them in a bag in a dark corner of my linen closet where there is no moisture. How long are they actually good for? ## They were good until that expiration date. It isn't that these become dangerous, after they expire, but medications do lose effectiveness with time. The older they get, the less they will do. ## I stumbled upon 120 of the red capsules (100 mg) Lilly brand. How long are they good for? ## I have 25-30 Eli Lily 100mg Sodium Seconal capsules with an expiration date of at least 2016. Are they still good past this date? Thank you. ## Sorry but your outta luck... Even if you did have reds, Lilly hasn’t made them in years. ## Every drug is different. When I was 16. We got hol...

75 REPLIES Updated in DinintelI am an 82-year-old man and have had type 2 diabetes since 2012. My diabetes is currently under control. Recently, my physician prescribed SITARA DM (sitagliptin 100 mg, dapagliflozin 10 mg, and metformin 1000 mg). I have been informed that dapagliflozin affects the kidneys, and in the long run, ketoacidosis may occur. As a result, I am concerned about taking this combination. Could you kindly advise me?
Updated in DapagliflozinI recently had to stop my Cetirizine for an antibiotic challenge test at my allergists office a week ago. Now I'm reading about withdrawal. I had a little itching all over like insect bites, but mostly since being back on Cetirizine, my nasal passages close completely during the day. I've tried Guaifenesin and just 100 mg or even 50 mg will open me up for 4 hours. Problem is I have irregular heart beats and weird dreams while in bed. I live in the country and there is plenty of dust. I think staying on this drug is risky. What other antihistamine might I try and I need to wean off of the one I'm on? Any advice is appreciated.
Updated in CetirizineI have a successful cardio version 2 months ago. I take 200mg Amiodarone and 20mg xarelto daily. I am in a higher insurance tier until Jan 2017 and a 90 day supply of xarelto is $455 (I pay 45%) I don't want to stop taking xarelto but can I take xarelto every other day instead of daily? ## Hello, Ernie! How are you? You should take it as instructed by your doctor, because doing otherwise could put you in life-threatening danger. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and easy bruising. However, given that this one is so expensive, you may want to ask your doctor about a cheaper alternative that you can try. ## What if there is no other alternative? My copay with Medicare is $569 a month, completely out of ...
7 REPLIES Updated in XareltoI suffer from anxiety and have severe anxiety attacks several times a day. I use to take xanax and klonopin and they helped so much. Does anyone know of a doctor around north Royalton Ohio that will easily prescribe the two? Thanks. ## I understand completely what you're going through. It is hard to find doctors to prescribe benzodiazepines now these days, because of the potential for abuse. I suffer from horrible social anxiety, and rarely, if ever, leave my house; it's horrible! The thing is, Xanax is a fast acting benzodiazepine, and is heavily abused, because it can make you feel high, but klonopin are slow acting release, and therefore do not have that same affect. Anyway, most nurse practitioners, or resident doctors who aren't very knowledgeable about this, will simpl...
78 REPLIES Updated in XanaxHi, Has anyone seen/taken or have any information on Bensedin (Galenika) Diazepam 10mg? The box/strip looks ok but the actual tablet is white circular/domed with no markings at all.... I presume that they are Eastern European. Any information at all would be most appreciated. Peace ## Yes, received my prescription today. Took 1/4 tab, now, two hours later, my spasms from a ski shoulder injury, are not spasming anymore. I plan to take another 1/4 tad 2.5mg before bed. Seems like a good brand. ## Galenika bensedin is very very high quality pharmaceutical grade diazepam! it is top notch, one of the best brands available. Bensedin 10mg x 15 Tabs in a blister pack, 30 x 10mg diazepam a box, and around. I also am prescribed Galenika ksalol/alprazolam 1mg x 15 tabs a blister pack 30 x 1mg tabs...
996 REPLIES Updated in DiazepamI have been on Ozempic 1mg for a few months and have lost 25 lbs. I feel great but struggle with constipation from the drug. Does anyone else have this problem? ## Ohmygosh!! Yessss I love Ozempic for my type 2 diabetes. I have lost a good amount of weight. I have so many diabetes problems that Ozempic has helped with.. BUT I freaked out about the Constipation I took Mira lax and then ex lax. I calmed down about it and know I don’t eat junk like I have and I don’t eat as much. I take Metamucil daily and eat fiber drink tons of water. The Constipation is better but still an issue if I don’t drink enough water.. I love Ozempic and haven’t felt better since I got this prescription. My blood glucose is great!! ## I take Ozempic & also hv constipation issues, not ...
12 REPLIES Updated in OzempicMy pharmacy changed my meds from the yellow 10-325 v 3601 norco to the 10-325 white m367 mallinckrodt. I've been taking the yellows for years with no problems. Today I started the whites and feeling dizzy, a little weak, kind of panicky. What is different about the two meds that would cause this? ## hi i take the 10-325 hydrocodone apap tablet malli and i was takeing the yellow 10-325 witch helped me i have a very bad back and spine problems the whit pills do noting but give me headackes and upset stomack i have been on vicodin for many years now that the drugs store gave me the white pills they do not work but make me sick what can i do? ## Hello, Jennifer and Don!

190 REPLIES Updated in Hydrocodone66 yr old male, 5'11", 191 lbs. Exercise daily. Prescribed 5MG Eliquis x 2 day. Since starting approximately 3 weeks ago I have become extremely depressed to the verge of crying. Never been like this before and I contribute this depression to the drug. Also very lethargic which I contribute to Eliquis. Anyone with similar reaction? Was on a aspirin and I think I should return. I suspect this depression to be directly linked to the drug. ## Hello Abel! How are you? I'm very sorry about the way you're feeling. Yes, depression can be a side effect of this medication, as listed by the FDA. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and easy bruising. If it is that severe, then yes, you should most likely consult your doctor about stopping...

10 REPLIES Updated in CancerI was given a couple 400mg gabapentins from a friend for some migraines, I took them but found out that I will be having a drug screen and am worried that these pills can be detected, so please could someone let me know whether or not I'm worrying for nothing or if I have something to worry about, thanks ## If you've given yourself at least a few days, odds are that it's less likely to show up under any sort of urine, saliva, or blood test. What's more risky in my opinion, is the opportunity for a false-positive to show up. Where as it can sometimes show that you took something completely different and then you're left trying to explain yourself. The good thing is since most standard drug screens test for illicit drugs, controlled medications, and medications with a ...
31 REPLIES Updated in GabapentinI am going to a pain management appointment in 2 days. I need to use synthetic urine, but I also need it to show that I am taking my Norco/10 mg hydrocodone. Can I add some powder from a crushed pill to the fake urine? Will that make the synthetic urine positive for Norco? I am hoping so. Please reply asap anyone! Thanks so much! ## I have friend wondering the same thing? Did it work? ## It worked! The stuff I used was called "Quick Fix Synthetic Urine PLUS".. I got it at a local smoke shop for $19.99 + tax. Someone I talked to at the company said just use a small amount of crushed Norco/Vicodin and make sure you shake it well before putting it in the sample test cup. I give my sample unsupervised, but you can use the squeeze top (closed, of course) heat the bottle in the micro ...
56 REPLIES Updated in NorcoI have taken zopiclone many times before and they're usually oval white with a z, but I got some recently that are white and round with a BL on it and would like to know if they are a good manufacturer? ## I got some from my pharmacy today never had these b4. ## I got some of the white round (zopiclone) with the BL, I have don't have any history on them, and to night will be taking my second dose of two pills they put me to sleep, I still had that metallic after taste the next morning. I get them filled at my pharmacy and have never had bad experience. ## Same as Benny, anyone had zopiclone white with BL on them? are they a good brand? ## I had to make enquires about small white tablets the had BL on one side and nothing on the other some time ago and was told they were Zopiclon...
15 REPLIES Updated in ZopicloneI have recently received a new diazepam tablet to me, called Martin Dow limited 10mg. They come in strips of 10 per blister and are blue hard tablets with a score line on one side and the other side has 10 imprinted in it. I recently submitted some to wedinos to get them tested and they came back containing only diazepam, you can see the wedinos website reference number W010443 for the submission I made. Does anybody else have experience of these? The blisters are printed in blue stating Valium (diazepam) and from what I have read they are allowed to use the word Valium as they have licence from Roche who first developed them. Any further information would be great! ## Which pharmacy did you use to fill your prescription? ## They came from OSP; it's UKSP that I won't be using ag...
109 REPLIES Updated in DiazepamGalenika bensedin is a very high quality pharmaceutical grade diazepam. One of the best brands available are bensedin 10mg x15 tabs in a blister pack of 30x 10mg diazepam to a box. I also use Galenika ksalol/alprazolam 1mg x15 tabs a blister pack, 30x1mg tabs a box. It's also the best Xanax available hands down. It is a Serbian pharmaceutical company and it's up there with Bayer. I wish you could put pictures up so I could show you all the Galenika diazepam and alprazolam worth getting. ## Bensedin are currently being counterfeited and sold in the uk. Like all counterfeits some are good, indeed very, and some not so good, indeed bad and that's within the same strip. Tell tale signs you have counterfeits: First of all if they are in blisters they are likely to be counterfeit ...
429 REPLIES Updated in DiazepamHello, I used the canex v vaginal cream about 5 days ago and today when I woke up I was bleeding with a slight abdominal pain. Is this normal to experience bleeding 5 days after using the cream? ## Hello, Tracy! How are you? Yes, it can sometimes irritate the cervix and cause bleeding or spotting. Other possible side effects include dryness and irritation. If the bleeding doesn't stop after about a week, or so, you should consult your physician. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I used canex v cream and after 2 hours when I had gone to the toilet, I noticed red discharge or light bleeding. Is this normal or do I have to go see a Dr? ## I used canex v cream for three days , during the day on the fourth day I started seeing brown discharges for two days then after that I star...
