I Have Been Taking Sintrom For Several Years and have to Control Test Every Month Am Going Goa 5 Months In November Will It Be Possi
I have been taking Sintrom for several years now and have to go for a control test every month. In November I am going to Goa for 5 months. Will I be able to get this control test there? If so, where do I go? I shall be staying in the Cavelossim / Mobor area of South Goa ## Hi jack, Because I am based in the US, I am unaware of the availability of Sintrom control tests in other countries. However the best advice I can offer at this moment would be to contact your current doctor (or whom ever administers the control test for you now) and see if they can refer you to another location in or around where you'll be staying. I can look up various hospitals and organizations in India and provide their contact details, but it will have little use if one is unfamiliar with their surrounding ...

suboxone to fentynal for pain mgmt
I'm a chronic pain pt. I was on 16 mg of sub for pain for 2 straight years. It completely stopped working, when in the beginning it worked "good enough" now, my dr is a pain specialist and suboxone dr. He put me on a fentynal patch 25 mcg told me to take my last dose of sub and put patch on at same time because sub should b mostly out of my system within 12 hrs. I had no problem switching but a little wd from the sub. It is only day 4....dr said 40% of your opiod receptors r still open on sub!!! It only fills 60% of them. Still, enough to block most opiates, except very high doses. Now, I am just starting to feel the fentynal on day 4. But am still in moderate/sometimes severe pain. Anyone with a similar experience???? ## Hi Painpatient38, I haven't personally had an exp...

can percocet AND Flexeril be taken together
I take Percocet and Flexeril and was told by the doctor to wait a couple of hours before I take one or the other. What are the possible side effects, positive and negative. ## More than likely he advise to space them apart because they can both cause central nervous system depression. This can cause your breathing to slow and be shallower, a slower heart rate and etc. Using them both together can also worsen some other side effects, that they both can cause, such as drowsiness, dizziness and nausea. He is probably trying to minimize this for you. If you use them as he instructed you to, you may be able to get better pain control. Many doctors prescribe a muscle relaxant, like Flexeril, along with other pain management medications. Reducing the tenseness in the muscles can help lessen th...

I was so sick from taking the suboxon I thought I was going to die!!! Should I wait 2 days. then take the suboxon? (Which I took twice and am scared to death of) I want off of methadose! I can't affort to buy one more pill!!! Will the suboxon work, and if one makes me feel all screwed up (VERY VERY SICK) should I take a second suboxon and when. PLEASE...someone who knows and had got off methadone with subozon answer me!

What happened to you is called Precipatated withdrawl. My dad had the same thing happen. Wait atleast 4 days and yes those will be 4 awful days but take L-tyrosine and plenty of hot baths and if you c...

Sulfamethoxazole Tmp Ds Tablet
mouth palate and tongue feel raw while I am on this medicine........should I stop. ## Trimethoprim + Sulfamethoxazole can cause mouth sores as a severe side effect, but I haven't read anything related to what you're describing. My assumption is that if this side effect becomes too bothersome or persistent, then you should consider contacting your doctor about stopping the medication and opting for a safer or more natural alternative. How long have you been taking it for? ## I have just taken my first pill of Bactrim for a MRSA infection i developed on my arm. Before taking my pills I usually pin them with the underside of my tongue, but where the pill touched is now painful and swollen. My best advice is to just take the medicine as quickly as possible because it contains sulfur...

Im Marina Im 24 years old and a mother of 2 beautiul little boys. From the years 2006-2007 i was heavily addicted to Oxy 80 and eventually started doing herion. I got help in sep.2007 at a methadone clinic, it worked for as long as i was on the methadone i had NO relapse's. In June 2009 i was completly off of the methadone that first day that i was on 0Mgs I went through extreme withdrawls i went through things that i would never wish upon my worst enemy! i stayed that way for a day and a half and decided to go to a suboxone doctor. He put me on 32 mgs a day which i thought was pretty high of a dose but he explained to me that methadone withdrawls was worst then any other withdrawls. so i trusted him. Now when i go to see him every month i pretty much beg for him to start the weinin...

Can I Use Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream Usp Around My Eye Area Have A Rash On Eyelid
I have a rash/irritation on my uppper eyelid. Can I use triamcinolone Acetonide Cream USP 1% around my eye area? ## Triamcinolone acetonide cream 0.025% and 0.1% are indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses (a.k.a. a disease of the skin). The warning label for this medication does note the following information regarding eye contact: "This medication is to be used as directed by the physician. It is for dermatologic use only. Avoid contact with the eyes." That said, you may want to look into other possible treatment options "if" you sense that the cream will be applied too close to your eyes. The precautions also state that if an irritation develops, topical corticosteroids should be discontinued and...

Side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and nervousness. Ephedrine was banned in the U.S., because it can cause cardiac problems, by accelerating the heart rate and blood pressure.
