Herbal Pain Medication

I've been on pain medications by mouth and patch for some years now and they don't help my back pain any longer. Does anyone know of a good medication for pain and inflammation? I'm currently on 20mg of methadone 3X a day. ## A morphine implant. Or fentanyl patch. ## Donna in pain, what does your dr say ? Does he not want to increase your Methadone ? ## Hi Donna, I see that you have a couple questions pending from others already... but in regards to fighting inflammation, I would encourage you to research herbal supplements like turmeric + black pepper combinations; black pepper significantly increases turmeric's efficacy. The reason I even mention something natural like this is because my understanding is that it may have a direct healing effect on the underlying cause ...

I've been diagnosed with interstitial cystitis for about 2 years. I have to live with a series of excruciating symptoms. I've tried many medications and home remedies to relieve the painful condition. Recently, I 'm on a herbal medication called diuretic and anti-inflammatory pill. My pain during urinating has been alleviated a little. Hope it can greatly relieve my symptoms.

My fiance has pills in a prescription bottle that are not the pills that belong in them. I am wondering if I should be concerned. Since they are in a different bottle than what they came in. I know it's shady it me to look, but before I ask him, I wanted to look first. They are long narrow, white, oblong pill. When cut in half it's light brown that turns darker when wet. Smells herbal or tea like. He complains of back and nerve pain, but hasn't seen the Dr. He takes blood pressure pills. That's the bottle they are in. An old blood pressure pills script bottle. About 20mm long. No marking. Smooth on outside. White. Inside is brown. Couple it be pain pills from Mexico? Marijuana pills? Weight loss? Impotence? ## Hello Curious, According to the [1] FDA imprint regulations t...

i have ankle pain from arthritis. I have been told that Beeline tablets will help relieve the pain. Can you direct me to the company that sells these? ## Beline capsules are a natural herbal supplement, that is claimed, but not proven to help with many health problems. I'm not finding a current listing of the exact ingredients, but they list their number as being 44(0)161 408 0883. Are there any other questions?

Has anyone tried this herbal seed for pain relief? If so, how did it work, what did you use it for, what would you compare it to and how many grams did you take to find relief? I am trying to avoid more opiates. I have ordered some and have watched some YouTube videos and generally spent a lot of time online doing research. Thank you.

Hello friends! I am suffering from stomach pain directly in the stomach area in between ribs/breasts. I have nausea and vomiting now for over 1 week. I went to the ER and they did an ultrasound plus a CT Scan with contrast and everything came back normal. Needless to say I was sent home in the same excruciating pain that I went in with. My doctor is not calling me back. I have tried every herbal tea plus antacids. Nothing will give me relief of this pain and according to my test results performed in the hospital, they don't see anything wrong. I am scared and need help and or any ideas? Thank you! ## Hello, Ruth! How are you doing? Has there been any change? Have you consulted a gastroenterologist? When that happened to me, it turned out to be gastritis and it took a long time for a...

Is it okay to take this drug with uricare? I have a uti and have been using that for the pain/uncomfortableness. Is it safe? ## Hi, Court! Unfortunately, since the UriCare is an over the counter herbal supplement, it has not been evaluated for possible interactions with prescription medications. Thus, the only thing I can suggest is checking with your doctor or pharmacist, they may have more information on it. Learn more Amox Tr K Clv details here. The antibiotic may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. How long have you been taking the UriCare?

I have many kidney stones (size 4mm to 5mm and form many size of small 3mm 2mm 1mm both side of kidney. I feel pain. so, I want to know use of NEERI Syrup. ## how can.i take this syrup and how many days i have stone small ## This is only an herbal supplement, not an actual medication, so there are no guarantees that it will help with anything. That said, as explained by the NIH, most small kidney stones will pass on their own in a few days, so usually pain medications are prescribed to help someone be more comfortable, while they are being passed. If a stone is too big to pass, other medical intervention may be required. Sarah, if you have many kidney stones, you really need to consult a specialist to discover what is causing them. Too many of them may cause kidney failure, the same is ...

what for ## Paradol can be a couple of possbilities. In Tunisia, for example, it is a brand of medication containing the active ingredient Paracetamol, which is an over the counter pain reliever. However, it can also refer to the active flavor constituent of the seeds of Guinea pepper (also known as Grains of paradise). Anecdotally it is said to have antioxidative and antitumor promoting effects. So the question now is which Paradol you are referring to? The pharmaceutical medication, or the herbal remedy? Hope this helps either way! ## Pls how then do we know the difference between the pharmacitical and the herbal remedy? Do they go by different name from paradol? Thank u Anita ## anita, the best way would be if you can look at the product packaging. It will usually list off the ingred...

I have ankylosing spondylitis and have been taking Beline capsules for nine months with remarkable results. I am largely pain free with an all round feel good benefit. Even a very long standing skin rash has disappeared. When I stop taking them the pain returns quite noticeably. Nonetheless I have strong reservations about herbal medications and intend to consult with my Rheumatologist shortly. Pity!!! ## My wife started Beline Capsules recently for her arthritis with remarkable almost instantaneous relief. I ordered them from the UK and it took forever for them to get to Colorado. Where do you get yours? I share your concern about possible interactions with other drugs and possible negative consequences. ## It's good to hear that they are successfully helping some people. As to pur...

How has Skelaxin affected any one out there? ## I have taken this med before & could never feel any difference. Isnt it a muscel relaxer? ## what kind of overhe counter med. can you take for RA anything to stop the pain ## Well, Kari, I know some people swear by over the counter medications, such as anti-inflammatories, like Ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin) or Acetaminophen (Tylenol), as well as some herbal remedies. The main concern here, of course, is that you have to be careful how much you take, due to the possibility of overdosage, which can result in severe organ damage or even death. So, if you are going to try them, please be careful to stay within the recommended dosages and also, make sure they don't interact with any other medications you may be taking.

The following quotes are directly from NIH's PubMed study - giving a rundown of their review on Kratom [see link below for reference]. But here’s where things get confusing - STATEMENT A: “In Southeast Asia, kratom has been used for decades as an herbal medication to treat chronic pain, increase energy and stamina, treat chronic pain and diarrhea, and as a substitute for opium or for opium withdrawal.” STATEMENT B: “Extracts of kratom have been used to treat chronic pain, diarrhea and cough.” STATEMENT C: “Kratom has not been shown to have any beneficial medical uses.” Now is that a not contradiction or what?! Since when has chronic pain, GI or respiratory issues been deemed 'non-medical related'? Last I checked, pharmacies were still p
