I was prescribed Debendox for severe morning sickness in 1979. My daughter was born early 1980 and suffered from around the age of 13 from severe allergies. It wasn’t until an amazing Dr. she went to when she became pregnant herself thought outside the box. Hearing her medical history he sent her for a scan. Turns out she was born without a spleen. I have wondered since then if it was because of the debendox which I was told was a safe option. ## According to NIH studies, it was known to cause fetal malformation, but after this long of a time period, there is no way to say for sure if that is what caused her problem. While it sometimes easier for us to attribute birth defects to some sort of medication that was being taking, or trauma in the womb, in many cases it is very hard to ...

I had a neck fusion 10 years ago and my DR. put me on soma and xanax.Last month he changed it to valium. The valium is not helping my muscle spasms at all.I had some soma left from my last refill and took some yesterday will it show up on drug test different from the valium?And if so how long does it take to get out of my system before I go back to my DR.? ## I have the same problem with a DAN/350 mg.How many days does it stay in your system. This is a genetic for Soma. ## Yes they will show up different, I don't know how long google it. ## The problem here is that Valium has such a long half-life that it becomes useless after a few weeks and you basically only feel the withdrawals. Unless your doctor is doing a specific search for carisoprodol it doesn’t show up on even the 1...

Is Methocarbam and Methocarbamol the same thing 500mg? Or are they different? ## Likely the same thing considering the 500 mg dose. "Methocarbam" seems like it would be an abbreviation on the prescription bottle. Can you share what the tablets look like (markings, color, shape) or the NDC # on the bottle? ## The names are the same. ## Methocarbam is a long white tablet with an H on one side and 115 on the other. Methocarbamol is orangish with a G on one side and 750 on the other side ## Those are both 750 mg doses of Methocarbamol ("Methocarbam" for short). The white H 115 tablet has an NDC code of 31722-534. The orange G 750 tablet has an NDC code of 62207-770.

What was the main active ingredient in the pills that were known as speed or white cross during the 70's and 80's? They were small white tablets with a cross or X scored on one side. ## Speed typically contained Amphetamines, a stimulant. There are still people today that use and they have found their niche in the prescription drug market to treat conditions such as ADHD, Narcolepsy and Shift Work Disorder. The most commonly used one is Adderall. ## Main ingredient I think is ephedrine and it is controlled in the United States. ## How many mg of adderall would compare to 80's white cross? ## Are these types of ephedrine pills still available with a prescription? ## in the 70's probably a racmic close to adderall. probably dl-ampmine. otherwise ephedra. ## So they still s...

My husband has had eczema for years. Last year I suffered from a yeast infection that wouldn’t go away. I tried a water/apple cider vinegar bath and it worked well to cure the ph levels. I read the same issue with eczema so I used it on my husband's. 2 times I soaked a paper towel and laid it on the area. He hasn't had an outbreak in almost a year.

Does anyone have information on this high grade Rx, prescribed as a metabolic/psychological enhancer? ## Biphetamine - Was manufactured right here in Rochester, NY (circa 1968-1973). It was frankly, hard to believe that this drug was actually legal! This was without a doubt the best legal "speed" EVER available, bar none. 18hrs of tooth gritting, high energy, nothing-can-stop-me-now, balls to the wall, can you handle it speed - AWESOME! Oh lord, please let someone manufacture these again (and let the DEA approve). Oh how much more I could do with my life if Black Beauties were plentiful again. ## remember when you were up you didn’t have a chance to stay up drs were either filling out scripts or give them away the first white crosses had the same effect

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 doctor just renewed my prescription for eemt (originally estratest) but my insurance won't cover it and the pharmacy said it would be $407.00 for a 90 day supply. I can't afford it any longer. I have used estratest &/or eemt for many years and it was the only thing that works. My hot flashes and night sweats are miserable. The pharmacy said it was not "Obama care" that cut off our HT. ## Hello, TutuTerri! How are you? Many insurance plans are starting to question covering HRT, due to the possible risks that can be associated with it, such as cancer and cardiac events. Especially, if you've been using it for years, most women don't need it for that long, they use it for awhile, until they are through menopause and things settle back down, then they stop tak...

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'm wondering if anyone else started having injection site issues with Zepbound after a year and a half or so of problem free use. I'm suddenly experiencing painful swelling and bruising each week that never happened before. Also I'm seeing actual changing of body fat storage in injection sites. Almost like stored body fat melts away from the areas the shot is injected into. Has anyone else had either of these things happen with the use of this rx? Thanks in advance for sharing any experiences.

I would like to order the x112 liquid diet drops that comes from Germany. When I was in Germany I lost lots of weight from using the x112 liquid diet drops. What is the total cost for the x112 liquid diet drops? If I can order by mail please let me know as soon as possible. There was no side effect to using the liquid x112 diet drops. The x112 liquid diet drops came in a very small dark color bottle. ## I would like to order x112 liquid diet drops from Germany. Please tell me how I can order them. ## Heaviest I've ever been.

Is it safe to take Morphine sulfate 1 mm rel 15 mg tab after it's expiration date? ## can you take propox-n/apa after expitation date ## I have some extended release morphine sulphate 60 mg from 2015. Is it ok to take?? I need to go to an event without being in such pain. I usually take 15 mg and 15 mg of oxycodone. ## Under U.S. FDA regulations, tablets and capsules expire one year from when they are dispensed to you by your pharmacy, since that exposed them to the elements that can cause degradation, such as heat, light, and moisture, so under average storage conditions in most homes, that is the longest period of time they can guarantee full efficacy. Liquids, creams, and ointments may have shorter expiration dates, and capsules/tablets that are still sealed in their factory orig...

Hello, I am taking 30mg daily before going to bed (male, 43 yo). I have started with a very low dosage of 7.5mg and over the course of about 1.5 months I reached the current level. I experienced clear drowsiness (which is a good as I was having trouble sleeping) and dry mouth from the beginning. While the effect of drowsiness right after taking the pill persists, the dry mouth seems to be mostly reduced (80% from the top at the beginning). The reason why I'm writing is a strange back pain that started about 6-7 weeks ago. Here is why I find it strange and why I would like to hear from others if they experienced it like this: 1. I wake up every morning with acute back pain over all my back (bottom to below the neck) 2. Due to the pain I can hardly move in bed when I wake up. Often it...

My husband is taking encore chrono 500 along with gardenal 60mg.we are planning to pregnancy.plz advice any side effects for pregnancy. in future my husband will got any health problems taking this medication.plz reply for both questions ## Hello, Mith! How are you and your husband? No, they will not affect your ability to have children in the future, nor will they affect their health, according to the NIH. Are you on any medications? Medications that you take would play a much larger role. ## I am 66 years old and am taking encorate chorno500 three times a day as per doctor's advice and am feeling very sleepy and weak. Can I take the medicine twice a day?

My pharmacy has recently changed the manufacturer from whom they order generic Paroxetine. Are they ANY side effects a patient could encounter from this change? The dosage is the same. I have been experiencing bad headaches and backache since the switch (6 days). ## Yes, I get brain zaps which is what some people experience when quitting this medication. I take it faithfully & everything was fine until they started making generics & I have symptoms as if I skipped a few days of taking this medication. ## The most likely culprit is a different filler or binder that is used in the manufacturing process. See if your pharmacy will be willing to order the other manufacturer’s product especially for you. It’s not unusual for them to do this. However, be warned that there i...

Which manufacturer of 2mg Lorazepam gets the best reviews and how does Teva's Lorazepam compare to the rest? ## There have been a lot of changes in the last several months, but in my opinion: 1. Teva/Actavis 2. Aurobindo 3. Leading ## I agree. Teva works best for me. Leadings fillers seem to inhibit the active ingredient for me but we are all diffrrent. ## forget leading pharma.you will wake up if you ever went to sleep with a taqilla hangover every day. ## Teva is the best but who knows the future in availability?

I need to know how to stop taking contrave. Can I just quit cold turkey or do I wean off? If I wean off how do I do it? ## Hello, Janice! How are you? How long have you been taking it? Why do you want to stop it? The FDA lists Contrave as being used to aid in weight loss and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, nervousness, insomnia and anorexia. Have you consulted your doctor? It does require slow tapering for some people. ## I was looking up how to wean myself off of Contrave and found this comment on here. I've been taking Confrave for about a month or so. I just started the 2 pills in the morning and 2 pills at night dose Sunday (today is Friday). I've felt horrible all week since increasing it. Hot flashes in my face, horrible nausea, glands some...
