I neeed answers please for the stomach discomfort after intaking cherifer capsul with zinc ## i also experience stomach ache after drinking cherifer pgm :( twice ko palang sya nainom parehas na sumakit tyan ko. tinake ko sya after meal. ittry ko sya itake before meal baka di na sumakit tyan ko. ## Wag e pag sasabay ang cherifer sa food na may iron, especially yung cherifer with zinc. Chemical reaction of zinc and iron results to upset stomach. Eat foods with iron such as milk after 2-3 hkurs you take cherifer. ## Due to the potency, the NIH warns that this medication may cause some nausea as a side effect, in some people that take it. It may also cause constipation and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with? ## my tummy aches after i take cherifer pgm with zinc. is it okay...

I have had people tell me that the green S903 tablets have caffeine in them. Is that true? ## What is in green footballs 902s? ## Xanax does not contain Caffeine ## Eddy is correct! That is a dangerous combination, since one is an upper and the other essentially a downer, so the FDA would never approve it. The S903 tablet just contains 2mgs of Alprazolam, the active ingredient in Xanax, which is a benzodiazepine that's most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. The tablet with the S902 marking contains 1mg of Alprazolam. This medication has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. ## I'm scared to get the green bars again. I just seem to have no other choice. What happens is every time the...

Hi, 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...

My wife, age 84, had arthroscopic surgery on her knee 15 years ago with little benefit. Lately she has had the rooster shots with no benefit. A few days ago she was in agony and friend gave her "Charlote Arthritis" pills from Mexico. The relief was almost instantaneous. She takes two per day and is pain free. The list ingredients are: oak, white willow, magnesium, chamomile, and one item, about 7 letters, too blurred to read. ## Where or how can I get some. I have taken them for my Lupus symptoms and it is an all day relief of pain that nothing else has been able to provide. I cannot find them anymore since the person who used to get them is no longer available. ## El Centro Super Center, Nuevo Progresso, Tamp, MX Hurry before Trump screws up everything and closes the border. ##...

I found a few of these in a little coin purse i forgot about in my purse, but i can't remember what they are for. it's a long pink pill with CCHF on it. ## These contain 360mgs of Activated Charcoal, commonly used to help treat poisoning and other chemical reactions. Is there anything else I can help you with? ## They're not for poisoning, they're anti-gas charcoal capsules. ## I found this pill CCHF in my purse… what is it for

Looooong read. I warn you now :) Ok. PLEASE don't explain how it works or what it does. Save yourself the time. I am extremely familiar with how it works and what it does. But I have a question that's been on my mind for many moons, forever actually (10 plus years) and I can't seem to get a straight answer to it no matter how many times I ask it and where I ask it. I am asking it here for the first time. Just always get the usual, familiar rhetoric explaining to me how it works and where it binds and what it does, blah blah blah, but no one ever can explain the "why" behind all this wonderful science! And at the end have one first hand case PROVING what I'm questioning to be true. Ok so follow. So if buprenorphine is stronger than and has a higher affinity than l...

I refilled my script of diazepam and received Neuro Vision 10mg Diazepam. They're an Indian brand, white tablets (which is normal for India) and they also have Dizpam - 10 on packet. I've had a couple and they taste bitter, not like the bitter sweet taste of valium. I felt them but can't put my finger on if they're diazepam or not, they are definitely a benzo though! Has anyone else ever had these? If so I'd value your honest feedback/ thoughts. ## I have got them and sent them off to b tested and they are Diaz, not sure on dose though, they deffo do the job ## I have also received Dizpam-10. It does not work as well as actual Valium 10mg. I get very high strung at times and need to take a benzo, but Valium 10mg works better than Dizpam 10mg. ## What pharmacy do you ...

Used to take for cramps. What was it? ## Is this still on the market? I used to take it for cramps ## Hello, Mel and Sandy! How are you both? Edrisal contained the active ingredient Phenacetin, however, it was banned by the FDA in 1983 due to the increased risk it caused of kidney failure and certain types of cancer. It is actually metabolized into Acetaminophen(Tylenol) so that is what it was replaced with in over the counter medications. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I wish they would research this some more and make any necessary changes. It really worked great for cramps. I don't know about you but it gave me a very euphoric feeling and feeling of well-being, but I never took more than absolutely needed. ## I took it also, back in the 60’s. It made me VERY ALE...

Are the Potassium CL ER 10 MEQ Capsule and the Klor-con 10 MEQ Tablet the same thing? The Klor-con 10 MEQ Tablet is yellow and round with KC 10 on one side and nothing on the other. The Potassium CL ER 10 MEQ Capsule is blue, oblong-shaped, with AMNEAL on one side and 542 on the other side. ## Yes, they have just been manufactured by different companies, which is normal, when a medication is available as a generic. The FDA classifies this as a supplement and it is known to cause stomach pain and upset, so it should only be taken with food. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Does it cause joint and neck pain and increase bp?

Does cefdinir make your urine smell and does it cause you to need to go more often? ## The exact reason why medications do certain things to the body are unknown, however, they all do have side effects, because you are ingesting a foreign substance. Cefdinir is an antibiotic, a generic for Omnicef. The most common side effects include: nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain and headache. That said, it should not make you urinate more frequently, but medications do affect people differently. Have you talked to your doctor about this? ## Yes. My urine smells awful, just like the smell/aftertaste of the capsule when I take my dose of Cefdinir. ## Mine too, just reeks. ## My urine smells terrible since I've been taking Omnicef. ## My pee smells like asparagus, but I didn't eat any asparag...

Please be ware there is no explaining what will happen to you physically and mentally you will wish you where dead and you feel like your going to I was on 80mg of methadone for 1 month I did 1\4 of an ampuill it was the worst experience I don't think they put o the warning labels what happened but it was really BAD ## Hi Pat, Sorry to hear about what happened. Sounds like you had a pretty grueling experience there. And I can only imagine how concerned I would be too, without having any prior warning labels/interactions listed on the packaging to help make sense of what's going on. From what I've read, it's probably not safe to use either of these drugs within at least a week of each other. Taking subutex (buprenorphine) directly after methadone could potentially put you...

Has anyone experienced sudden memory loss while taking Mounjaro? I noticed it a couple of weeks after starting. It was not the normal "aging" loss - it was more pronounced and happened suddenly. I know it could have been a TIA, but it did seem coincidental. ## Memory loss is not listed among the known side effects provided by the FDA nor the manufacturer of Mounjaro themselves [1]. Side effects typically include nausea, stomach pain, elevated heart rate, and heartburn. Ref: Mounjaro Information On the contrary, I did find a PubMed abstract concluding that “Tirzepatide (the active ingredient in Mounjaro) obviously exerts a protective effect against spatial learning and memory impairment, potentially through regulating abnormal insulin resistance and inflammatory responses....

I was in a serious car accident at age 30. I was on & off different opioids post-op for years which caused loss of all teeth. Just quit 4 mgs. daily of Dilaudid due to opioid-induced constipation (OIC). Will my gut health ever return?

I 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...

My Rite Aid closed so I had my medicine filled at CVS in Arizona. Found out they haven't sold Soma in a few years. Safeway told me a year. Yet Kroger & Walmart sell it. I've just lost 6 months worth. I'm sure my Doctor will help me when I return in a few weeks. I miss Rite Aid already, they were very nice, and sold Soma! ## Hey Eddy! Sorry to hear that! I get mine from CVS here in Texas? ## Thank you Sandra, I called and asked CVS how I could transfer my prescription to WalMart. The answer was you can't ## A big thank you to Walmart, a store that I have hardly used. They had to order my amount, 270 for a 3 month supply, I can't believe the price, $2.27. I was paying over $20 at Rite Aid, the retail price is $137 without any discounts. I knew Rite Aid was overchar...

I've been taking lyrica everyday for around 7 months. I've tried to stop taking them and the withdrawal symptoms are so severe I couldn't bare it after 5 days. apart from severs sweating feeling sick and aching all over, its the hallucinations and feeling like you are going to die. I mean really thinking you are going to have a heart attack. I could see my aura and time goes by so slowly it's worse then any opiate withdrawals. I was terrified and went back on them. I take 500 to 100 mg a day. I must get off them. I can't stand it. I worry that if I had to go into a hospital I would start withdrawing and I wouldn't be able to get them. Can you help me? What can I do? ## Hello, Debz! How are you doing? I'm sorry about what you're going through. The FDA clas...

is the drug amoxik clav or augmentin any good for treating the MRSA BUG? Like an antibotic ## It is an antibiotic, it contains Amoxicillin with Clavulanic Acid, however, no it is not usually used to treat MRSA as it is usually resistant to this class of antibiotics. The most commonly used now is Vancomycin. Are there any other questions or comments? ## No, this drug is not effective against most of the strains of mrsa. It is the best to traeat mrsa with NEZKIL (Linezolid), which is marketed in Pakistan in full range i.e.600mg infusion and tablet, 400mg tablet, 200mg infusion and 100mg/5l suspension. ## AllicinMax the active ingredient Allicin from garlic is a natural antibiotic which cleared MRSA in my husband’s post op wound when antibiotics failed.

I spent a week in the hospital with Covid a month ago. I'm 71 years old with asthma and COPD. After being released from the hospital, I thought I would start feeling better. Unfortunately, I think I may have Long Covid, as I have brain fog, significant nausea, and no energy at all. I can't get an appointment to see my doctor for 2 weeks. Has anyone else had experience with Long Covid, or are these symptoms just normal for Covid? It's really hard to get any info here in Australia, as it's all so new. Thank you. ## I am 91 and experienced all of the symptoms you mentioned, plus a loss of 55 pounds due to loss of taste and smell and no appetite. Have gained back 20 pounds in the last nine months. Still a lot we don’t know about COVID in USA. ## I had covid 6 months ag...

In January 2013 - I recently purchased a subscription to the Health Sciences Institute (HSI) newsletter and got the book "Miracles from the Vault." I scoured the pages to find DBX-13 which they advertised as the diabetes miracle cure, and couldn't find it anywhere. I called HSI, and after three attempts and by threatening to take them to court for false advertising, a response finally came by email. DBX-13 is called X-Cravings. But get this... it is no longer being manufactured. X-Cravings appears to be a formula to help you stop craving food... a diet product... and I guess they apparently felt this would help you lose weight which would help your diabetes. I placed a call to the manufacturer of X-Cravings, Nutricology. Tel: (800)545-9960 who claims they don't know that...

White round pill, with x on one side and 70 on other side. I was told this is an extended release Xanax, is it? ## Hello, Kloe! How are you? Yes, that is correct. It is manufactured by Aurobindo Pharma and they list it as containing 0.5mgs of Alprazolam in an extended release formulation, so it is a generic for Xanax XR. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability.
