Can I take .5 mg Xanax one night, .5 Ambien the next night and .5 Valium the next night and continue with that schedule? ## I wouldn't. When you take a Benzo, then a non Benzo, then a different Benzo, you are confusing your system as you get used to these medications. It's best not to take any of them as they all work differently, none the less mix them into a Benzo sandwich type schedule

Started my mother a few months ago. She is 80. She started with a few hallucinations, now much worse. It started shortly after and I’m tying it all together and wonder if this could be the case. Anyone experience this?

If I take 1tablet of Enantyum 25mg after breakfast for my Rheumatoid arthritis, which seems to work well for about 6 hours, is it ok to then takeParacetamol to get me through the night ? ## Enantyum contains the active ingredient Dexketoprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. Learn more Enantyum details here. How close are you taking them? Learn more Paracetamol details here. They are in different medication classes and are sometimes used together, but you do have to be careful how much and how often. What has your doctor advised? ## Who the heck trusts doctors?

White round pill imprinted N T on one side and a check imprinted on the opposite side. ## I have these too. Have you uncovered what they are? ## They are from India and they are labeled and being dispensed as 1 mg alprazolam. They're not working for me so I'm a bit scared to know exactly what's in them because I have taken them. ## Anyone tried them yet? I have just got some been told they were Valium, is there any effect? ## Did you get them from India or do you know where they came from? The ones I got from India were supposed to be 2 mg Alprazolam/Xanax. I don't know what they were but they didn't make me feel any different. ## They are in fact hand pressed alprazolam (if you taste a nibble of one it will be bitter and disgusting). Hand pressed in Mexico, some leg...

I have been taking eliquis for 2 months for pe, having back pain, blurred vision, weakness and a clenched jaw. Any suggestions? Anyone else with those symptoms? ## Hello, Denis! How are you? Yes, those have all been reported side effects of this medication, by users and the FDA. You may also experience nausea, headache and easy bruising. If the issues are severe, you may want to speak to your doctor as it may not be the right medication for you to take. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks verwon, going to see the doctor tomorrow, my back pain getting worse any recommendations on a cream or anything that can lessen the back pain ## I have really healthy eyes and never had blurry vision at all.

My lisinopril (90 day supply, just opened) will expire in 1.5 months. Can I finish it off or do I have to destroy it at the end of January? ## Hello, Lynne! How are you? This medication does not become dangerous once expired, but it may start to lose effectiveness. Thus, in reality, disposing of it, once it expires would be the best thing to do, however, you may want to ask your doctor and pharmacist if you can still finish it, since its loss of effectiveness will most likely be minimal by then. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. Is there anything else I can help with? ## How long after the expiration date of lisinopril can you still take it? ## That’s bull about disposing it on the expera...

Does anyone have any experience with this particular medication. I see that their are lots of complaints on there generic percoset, but I'm talking of just plain oxycodone 15 mg made by alvogen, any information would be great & most appreciated. Again not their percoset version, I'm speaking of plain oxycodone w/ no Tylenol. I cannot take tylenol as it causes my liver to have problems. Thank You! ## Hello, Peggy O! How are you? I've not run across any complaints posted on here, so far, from those that have been taking it. Alvogen is generally a reputable company that manufactures effective medications. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Ca...

I just had foot surgery & they prescribed me hydrocodone. I took it last at 8:30 pm yesterday. I woke up with a headache & I want to know if I can take something for my headache like tylenol in between my doses of hydrocodone? ## What are the specifics on the Hydrocodone that you're taking? Such as the dosage? Many of them contain Acetaminophen, so it may not be safe for you to take more. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. ## so what can I do to get rid of the nausea, dizziness and headache? ## what can I take for nausea and vomiting after taking this medication? ## norco 5-325 mg} 5 mg=325 mg tab

The past several times I have taken Linzess I have become extremely gassy about an hour later, but still no BMs. Does this happen to anyone else? ## Hello, Susan! How are you? Have you been making sure to take it a half hour, before eating or drinking anything else? Some doctors and pharmacist didn't inform people that it must be taken in the morning on an empty stomach, with just an 8 ounce glass of water. The gas can be a normal side effect, you may also experience dizziness, bloating and abdominal cramping. Can anyone that's on this medication chime in? ## I do use liness but it is the bomb. I will try everything to not have to use it. Three hours after you use it you could get a colonoscopy. And may I add you might want to put on double depends.

Please advise. I'm day 3 off contrave and constipation has set in! What do you all use to ease constipation? ## I drink room temperature organic prune juice every morning. I had an extreme bout of constipation before until I took a laxative then used prune juice later in the day because the constipation was coming back. Haven't had much problems now with constipation if I drink some in the morning to get everything moving from my system from the night before. ## I have taken Contrave for one week and have had constipation. I must admit that I have not been drinking enough water though. I started taking stool softeners every day, from one to three daily. I've had bouts of constipation in the past, and my gastroenterologist said it is safe to take stool softeners daily. I did ...

Received injection of carbocaine and had an immediate drop in blood pressure and fast heart rate. This resulted in a syncopal episode resolved somewhat by smelling salts. ## Earlier this year I was given Carbocaine at the dentist. I had it at two visits that were about a month apart. The first time, I had an overwhelming hot flash, followed by an even stronger hot flash. The dentist blew air from the dental equipment on me, and she said it was due to anxiety. I didn't think that was the case, but it stopped, so I went along with it. A little while later, my legs started shaking uncontrollably - like it was an adrenaline rush. No anesthetic using adrenaline had been given. A few weeks later, I had a 2nd procedure and was given the same anesthetic again. This time I got the hot flash ...

I have a very small pill which appears to be baby blue in color. On one side it has Alg and underneath the Alg are the numbers 264. The back side is blank. What is it? ## It's an oxycodone 15 but if it crumbles easy it could be a fake ## The Oxycodone with these markings that are manufactured by Alvogen are actually listed as being a light green. Can you please double check the imprint? The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. It also carries the risk of being habit forming. ## 15s with ALG 264 on it.

I have used cocaine for over a month moderately and haven't in five or six days. Will I pass a saliva drug test given by the state? ## I have not used this drug in 6 days.

I recently took a mouth swab for a drug test and it tested a high positive result for cocaine and i do not use!!! The only thing i did minutes prior to the test was rinse my mouth with a mouthwash. It was a meijer off-brand type, alcohol free, light mint. It's ingredients contain water, sorbitol, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, poloxamer 407, sodium saccharin, flavor, sucralose, green 3, yellow 10. Could the mouthwash be the reason for the false positive for cocaine? Please help, I am trying to prove my innocence.

what is this pill going to do to your system is it good to take before going to bed I take it 4 times a day any infor will help thanks john ## Hello, John! How are you? This is a high potency potassium supplement that's prescribed when someone's level has fallen dangerously low or if they are on medications that may cause it to fall dangerously low. Its most prominent side effect is stomach irritation, so it should be taken with food. It would also be best not to lay down within a half hour or so of taking it, so it should be taken awhile before going to bed. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## When is the best time of day to take, POT CL MICRO, 20MG ? ## What time of day is best to take, POT CL MICRO 20mg ? ## Why why am I taking this drug and what is it for?

I’m looking for some feedback from other Mounjaro users. Currently taking 5 mg weekly, on month 3. I have had positive results in blood sugar, A1C decline and weight loss, however in the last few weeks I have had increasing sulfur burps, pass a lot of gas and have lower abdominal pain. I don’t move my bowels as frequently as I used to either (figured that was due to less food intake). Has anyone else encountered the central lower abdominal pain? I often think it’s gas related, but it’s starting to make me concerned that it’s something more. What experiences do others have?

I found this thick oval light blue pill with no markings on one side and on the flip side there are four lines stamped into the pill, making the lines seem raised on the pill.

As a new mom to a teenager I was kind of freaking out!!! ## I’m glad it’s just a mint. I found one while cleaning out my car and I was like what the HECK is that??

I had taken losartan50/hctz 12.5 for 10 years, In recently years I suffered dry coughing and bad running nose allergy. I found out this is the side effect of losartan. Cutting the dose to half, changing to a water pill.. did not solve the problem. Over this holiday I developed bronchitis and was quite ill. I had very bad coughing, losing voice, sinus infection, nose bleeding, etc. I stopped taking Losartan to avoid further complications. I notified my doctor that I will check my blood pressure if the record is not over 140-90. I will keep the Losartan off. What else can I do? ## Hello, Muchin! How are you doing?
