I don't know if this is a Percocet 10/325 or not. It is a long white pill with M 523 on one side and 10/325 on the other. ## NO A 10/325 PERCOCET IS LONG OVAL AND YELLOW ## o hell ya it is. its called a perk 10 which has no asporin in it its all good codine they have a peace one and a white one which r 5's ## i meant peach ## idk but i just got alot of them ## im tryin to figure out if they perks or viks ## 10/325 XODOL ## is there a NAME for generic Percoset? ## Well first of all, the colors of pills are not proprietary, so not all Percocets are yellow, the only way to tell what it is, is to look up the imprint code. The sizes, shapes and colors of pills can vary greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer once a pill is released for generic production as there are NO regulations...

There are all these conspiracy theories about clonazepam generics, the FDA heavily regulates these and cannot have > +/- 20% of active ingredient. I too favor the tevas, but those are the old school generics and I think we just have an emotional attachment/ placebo effect to with regard to them. These placebo/mental effects can cause REAL withdrawal symptoms (my psychiatrist is one of the top pain/anxiety management docs in Texas). Also certain message boards dont even allow generic brand comparisons because there can be no noticeable difference between generic brands in terms of the effectiveness, but there may be placebo effects on addiction/withdrawal. Does anyone have any non-anecdotal evidence to support certain generics being worse than others? ## If you really want to read up...

I know I’m not crazy I’ve suffered from panic attacks and anxiety so bad I can hardly get in a car or leave my house. I have taken clonazepam for 8 years and has helped me live my life getting out of the house. For the last 2 years I noticed that it wasn’t working anymore. I was suffering from insomnia and I had bad diarrhea. So I stopped clonazepam just to see and after 8 years you would think I would have withdrawals but no very little. My anxiety is the same with or without. I thought maybe I built up tolerance… well I got a new generic accord and I feel as I’m taking that medication again. It works!!!! I can go places and be social. Leave the house!!! I know it’s the AVAGEN Clonazepam. They are as good as placebo. Now I have complained to the manu...

Can I use expired Crestor also known as Rosuvastatin after the expiration date? Maybe 2 or 4 months after expiration? Does it become toxic or just lose effectiveness? ## They just begin to lose efficacy, so it would be best to dispose of them and obtain a new supply. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and joint/muscle aches. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My mom has Crestor that expired in 2013. Is it safe to take? The bottle has been open. ## So Rosuvastatin, is safe to take after they expired, but lose efficiency? ## Take it. Expiration date mandated by FDA. Just means manufacturers guarantee potency up to that date. Could probably use well past that date.

I was taking Mallinckrodt oxycodone 5 mg and I had ZERO side effects. My pharmacy switched to Rhodes Pharma (God only knows why). But, after just taking 1 before bedtime, my heart was racing out of control, I didn't sleep at all, and woke up in a lot of pain and feeling all sweaty. I also wasn't able to have a bowel movement (a problem I never had with Mallinckrodt). Anyhow, I called multiple pharmacies and NOBODY has Mallinckrodt brand. Guess I will have to sit here and wait until I have convulsions, a heart attack or just die (since I can't take these pills)! While the DEA says they are trying to PREVENT OPIOID PROBLEMS, what they're really doing is CAUSING MORE PEOPLE TO DIE! Those who DO abuse opioids - I say, "SCREW THEM!" I, for one, never abused my meds. A...

Methadone is the worst drug. There are alternative ways to detox from opiates. I experienced cold turkey withdrawals after being on methadone for 12 years (90 mg. daily). Living hell. Severe withdrawals lasted two weeks, but less severe withdrawals lasted two months. Further withdrawals lasted for months. I couldn't think, walk, write... I was so miserable. If you are on Vicodin, Norco, etc., don't switch to Methadone. You have no idea what you're playing with. Trust someone who's been there (clean date: 2/1/2005) ## Hello, Caowens! How are you? I'm very sorry about what you've been through, but also congratulate you on sticking it out and becoming clean. Your post is very much appreciated, because many people do seem to see Methadone as a miracle drug, but they ...

I just started 30mg Mirtazapine for sleep; weened off Lunesta 2mg, to 1mg, to stopping. First night of 30mg Mitazapine wiped me out the next day. Tried again second night and did not get out of bed second day. Felt like I had the flu. Took 1mg Lunesta 3rd night and slept like a baby. Felt strongly ok the 3rd day. Should I cut this down to 10 or 15 mg Mirtazapine and keep trying with this medication? Or stop since I had such a bad experience first two nights?

How long does hydralazine last in your system? ## Hello, Kd! How are you? Hydralazine is classified as a vasodilator that is most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and congestive heart failure. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, increased urination, headache and hypotension. It's generally life span is anywhere from 10 to 48 hours. Did you suffer adverse effects from it? ## I took this med and experienced redness in my face. Do not use this medicine. It should be banned. I took it for three years. It almost shut my system down.

Just letting everyone know that I just did the newest Efudex treatment protocol which requires mixing 50% Efudex with 50% Dovonex (vitamin D) and it was very fast and easy. Four days of application of the combo "lit up" my face and 7 days later my face and scalp were virtually back to normal. Minimal pain, like a sunburn, and no scabbing, pus, etc. I was really scared to do the longer treatment after reading blogs and looking at pictures, but the new treatment is a piece of cake. Plus, according to related articles, it actually works better. A real win-win!

Would you please tell me who is the manufacturer of Vasculera, a new drug for circulatory problems? And where is it made? ## Yes, it appears to be made in the USA. According to the official drug label, Primus Pharmaceuticals is the distributor, but it is actually manufactured by a company called Capstone Nutrition, LLC. They appear to be located in Ogden, Utah. ## Hello, Helen! How are you? Vasculera is actually a prescription food product, it's not considered a drug. It's manufactured by Primus Pharmaceuticals. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Is Vasculera made in the USA or another country?

I have been on Barr/Teva dexedrine sulfate (generic) for 14 years. After 5 "shortages" I recently received back my script, butt it's a placebo !!!! Nothing at all. I took 25 10 milligram tabs; nothing at all. It's an unethical and disgusting scam. Am writing every politician, fda, Quality control, anyone who can address the monster of a crime. ## I feel the same way. The Dex 10's that were given to me had to be abused to have any effect. There is some FAKE crap out there. I have narcolepsy and took 60mg of adderall cor brand and never woke up. I feel sorry for kids with ADD and being forced to take a fake pill thinking its real only to screw up there homework and ultimately their lives. Something is Rotten in the generic stimulant area.

I have a client who wears fentanyl patch. Can she take tramadol while wearing this patch? ## Yes, there are many occasions when different pain medications are prescribed together to give better pain control or to get pain relief faster, while waiting for a time released medication, like the Fentanyl patch, to being working. She should be informed, however, that they both can cause CNS depression, so she has to watch for signs of severe problems, like lowered breath rate, lowered heart/pulse rate and low low blood pressure. It can also cause more side effects than usual, so she may experience worse dizziness, drowsiness, nausea and constipation. Also remember that any other medication and medical conditions must be taken under consideration when using medications, so make sure her doctor...

I live in central new jersey, and lost my dr. of 10 years. I did 5 years in physical therapy for some issues. I am now forced to leave my dr. and desperately need another immediately. I need him/her to prescribe my xanax and restart my pain pills. I will be out of xanax in a week. Please help me find a doctor who will easily prescribe these medications. ## Hello, Suzie! How are you? Why are you leaving your current doctor? Due to the new regulations that were put in place, if you require such medications on a long-term ongoing basis, you'll need to see specialists. Can anyone recommend good doctors in that area? ## Had to leave her because we became personal friends and she has become way too involved in my life. It's complicated but this leaves me in an awful position. Besides ...

I've been taking lisinopril, lupin 20 mg. for a number of years My last rx was refilled recently and the pharmacy substituted it with actavis 20 mg. With the lupin, my b.p. readings were always good. With the actavis my b.p.is elavated. I have also experienced a terrible rash and intermittent hives. Could the change in meds have caused this? Yesterday I was prescribed verapamil. (haven't started to take it yet). The pharmacy has filled the prescription with verapamil-ER 120 mg MYLAN. I have severe chemical allergies (paraphenadiamine, Balsam of Peru, methylcloroisothiolizone, quinoline mix and wool alchohols). My outbreak may not have anything to do with the med change, but I thought I should investigate all avenues. ## Actavis is the manufacture and I don't take lisinopril ...

My pharmacy has filled my lisinopril prescription with drug from Wockhardt the first month, Acta (Actavis?) the second month, and now Lupin! Lupin is located in Mumbai. Is their GMP as strict as in the US? Do I really want to continue taking lisinopril made in India? What is all this switching generics doing to my body? should I get a new pharmacy where they fill it consistently with drug from the same company? ## You are in no danger from them regularly switching manufacturers, no harm will come of it. Learn more Lisinopril details here. And the one manufactured by Lupin is made to the same strict standards as all others that are available in the U.S. Otherwise, they wouldn't be available here from your pharmacy. And no pharmacy will always fill your prescription with generics from...

I have been looking or this product for years. My mother-in-law had the original jar which my husband used sparingly. Because the drug store where they had gotten it from had closed. A friend was able to locate a couple of jars which my son somehow got his hands on and I had not seen it until this past Sunday. I got a small piece of an Easter basket stuck in my finger. It is great for removing things like that, but where can I purchase this product? I live in Illinois near Chicago. Please let me know. Thanks! ## Where can I find poslam ointment?

I am taking suboxone but wondering if I can also take extenze male enhancer with it? ## If you mix suboxone with extenze I find that it makes you feel like you are having a heart attack!
