Susten 100 Side Effects
Susten use and sideeffects ## what is the side effect of susten 100 in pergnency ## Hi, Ladies! Susten contains Progsterone, which is a hormone that is vital to the overall health and well being of the female body. A lack of it can cause issues, such as PMS, PND, menstrual cramps, very heavy, prolonged menstrual flow, infertility and miscarriage. It really has no side effects of its own, other than causing a little drowsiness if the dose is too high….however, it does tend to wake up the estrogen receptors and when estrogen becomes the dominant hormone, it can make you pretty miserable. You may experience headaches, nausea, dizziness, heart palpitations, weight gain, fluid retention and more. But as to taking it in pregnancy, normally your body produces very large amounts of it whi...

White Watson 10mg 325 #853
I just recieved a new prescription of norco 853 10/325. The last script was yellow and the new ones are white. The pharmacist said that Watson changed the color but the pill is the same, does anyone know if this is accurate ## Watson has change a few different medications and the colors are different. But the Norco you're referring to is the same medication that you were prescribed prior. It is just as effective as the script you had filled before this one and it's a good thing that you ask the pharmacist, the pharmacist is correct. ## LuLu is correct and so was your pharmacist. There have been several posts on here recently about various Watson tablets being white now. It seems that some people were sensitive or allergic to the dyes they were using, thus they decided to do away...

Codesoft tablet and its uses.
Hi, Can u please let me know in what all ways does codesoft tab help girls of age around 20. Cause for Fibrodenoma, Effects treatment. Will they be able to conceive in future? ## Hi, Sandy! Codesoft is just a nutritional supplement that contains Evening Primrose Oil, so it is not actually a medication. And no, actually there's a chance that it could make Fibroadenoma worse, since EPO tends to be estrogenic, meaning it may elevate the levels of estrogen in the body and excess estrogen is well known to be a primary cause of such breast problems. Unless it is causing you a problem, or is disfiguring, Fibroadenoma is usually not treated, since it's harmless. And it could also cause problems with future conception, since excess estrogen tends to overpower the progesterone in your bod...

low platelet count using wellbutrin sr
Hi, I have been using wellbutrin sr 1n the dosage of 200 to 250 mg daily for about 9 months.2 week ago my blodd test showed very low platelet count 10-15, Could this be related to the use of wellbutrin. Please give your comments. Thanks ## Hi, Sahmed! How are you? And yes, from some studies I've found doing a search, Bupropion, which is the active ingredient in Wellbutrin, as well as several other antidepressant class medications can cause changes in the platelet count in some people that take them. Bupropion is not as prone to causing it as the others, but it did do so in some test subjects. Have you consulted your doctor about it? You may need to try a different medication.

Kindly give your advise. ## iwas suffering from loose motion i took welgut for 4 days then after 5days i had the sameproblem itook velgut for 10 days. loose motions have stopped but uneasiness in stomach prevails should i continue taking medicine ## Velgut is actually just a probiotic supplement, not an actual medication. It helps support or repopulate the normal healthy bacteria in your gastrointestinal system. Thus, I can see the point of Deepti using it for diarrhea, since it can help if the diarrhea has been caused by a bacteria or virus that upset their system, but these aren't known to help with COPD.

MTP KIT IS WORKING OR NOT
Hi doc, my wife used MTP Kit mifepristone 21 hours ago in night, but she didn't get any bleeding. Shall we continue the remaining pills(misoprostol) ? she take a test to confirm that she was pregnant in the morning also. please help me doctor ## HI, Anil! The only way to see if it will work is for her to finish it as directed and give it some time. It is usually effective for most women, but it does have a small failure rate. And generally, combining both medications is more effective than just taking one of them, so there would be a better success rate from finishing. Are there any other questions or concerns?

Urbanol and Allergex
I have been taking Urbanol 10mg and Allergex (not sure of the mg) one tablet of each medication twise a day. I often feel like i am just going to drift off to sleep and have done so a few times whilst at work. I also do have trouble falling asleep at night but i have found it much easier to fall asleep after i have taken my medication. ## HI, Carla! How are you doing? The culprit is most likely the Urbanol, because it contains the active ingredient Clobazam, which is a benzodiazepine derivative. This class of medications is well known to cause drowsiness and they have actually been used as sleep aids for some people that were resistant to other therapies. It also has the potential to be habit forming. Learn more Urbanol details here. You should talk to your doctor about it, it may be ne...

Rex Xr Side Effects
i m taking rex-xr last two years...when i stop to take this then the problm reappear...would i take it whole life ## Rex XR contains the active ingredient Divalproex Sodium, it's used to treat certain mental health disorders. And if you stop taking it abruptly, after being on it for so long, you can experience a rebound effect. This can include the return of the original problems you started taking it for and they can actually be worse than they were to begin with. To stop any medication like this, you should talk to your doctor so they can help you set up a proper tapering schedule to gradually stop the medication to avoid the worst of those effects. Learn more Rex XR details here. Are there any other questions or concerns?

one side of pill is a M the other side of the pill is T7 ## what type of drug is tramadol hcl 50 mg. is it narcotic, like morphine or codene, is more like accetomedaphen(tylonal), asprin or what? What is it addictive, not addictive, have been given it for pain and having trouble finding out info on it... ## Tramadol is an interesting medication, the FDA has actually changed its classification several times. Basically, when inventing this drug, what they were trying to do was retain the analgesic properties of an opiate, but cut out the side effects and dependence or addiction issues. What they go was a pain killer that is actually somewhere in between. It does not work as effectively as most narcotics and it can cause the same side effects as an opiate, including dependence and addictio...

Testosterone pellet
I had testosterone pellets inserted in my hip last April, 2012. My tes shot up from 355 to 850 in a couple of weeks. Everything was OK, then about 10 weeks into the program I started having anxiety. I got to the point where it was panic. I have never felt panic to this degree. I went back to my doc and he checked my estrogen and found out it was 3 times higher than when I started the program. He gave me some anastrasole to block the production of estrogen. Once that door was open my anxiety would not go away. I started taking 30 mg of Cymbalta to control my anxiety. Now 4 months later things are starting to level off. Obviously I was disappointed and do not plan on getting the Testosterone Pellets anymore. It seems like I experienced all the negative side effects and none of the positiv...
