quittging cymbalta
I quit cymbalta cold turkey 6 days ago. I developed severe burning itchy weeping peeling skin. Will i hit the wall as they say? And when. I have taken numerous meds over the last 15 year due to to numerous orthopedic surgeries the most recent of which was a c-3 to t-3 with rods, 16 giant screws. plates, vertebral cage and was in the hospital for a month just a year ago. I lead as active a life as possible, exercise and take hilly walks with a walker. My pain doc prescribed the cymbalta for pain, neuropathy and muscle spasms etc as at this point I am allergic to many narcotics. I read about brain zapping and so on, but I don't think I have had that occur. How would it manifest itself? Over the last 14 years I have had spells where I just need to lay low for a day and regroup and move...

olmesar 20 side effects
previously i was taking candylong 4 mg daily one tab. then after doctor advice olmesor 20 daily one tab. bu found my creatine increased to 1.125 from 0.9. whether kidney will be affected by using olmesor 20. ## Actually, Olmesartan is used to help protect the kidneys and is often given to people that are prone to developing kidney damage and renal disease, such as diabetics. Did your doctor change your medication after your level was found to be higher? If so, that would make sense, they wanted to put you on something that would help, rather than harm your kidneys.

Small Blue Pill With A X On One Side
it is a small round blue pill with A X on one side and on the other side it has lines to break it into 4 piece, one line going from top to bottom and another line going from left to right making perfect 90 degree angles. The A X side has a line in-between them seperating the 2 letters. plz help me out (: ## From what I've encountered before in similar posts, there is a company that manufactures illegal anabolic steroids that uses this logo. Those, of course, aren't registered with the FDA, so I'm not sure which one this is, though. The best thing you can do with it would be just to dispose of it properly. Where did you find it?

Daliresp Experience
I have been on Daliresp for one month. I have noticed significant improvement in my lungs. By that I mean the mucus is gone, wheezing is gone. My lungs seem to be getting clear and do not feel as heavy as they did before I started taking it. I have had my bouts of depression, I am never hungry, which is a problem because I am underweight as it is. Just wondering if anyone else has had success with this drug. I was hoping to get off oxygen at some point. Don't know if I can achieve that or not. ## I don't have a lot of information on this medication, since it is very new to the U.S. market and we haven't had a lot of posts about it, either, for the same reason. Have you tried discussing this with your doctor? They may have some ideas on how to safely increase your appetite an...

Long term prednisone use
I am 43 and have been on high doses of prednisone for over 20 . At this time I am working with a new pulmolgist trying to get me off. Can anyone tell me what are the side effects of getting of this stuff. I know the damage it's done being on it. ( I have osteoporosis ,I break bones , diabetes, high blood pressure , glaucoma, , depression, anxiety , I have had steroid psychosis so bad while being hospitalized for asthma the nurses were terrified . ## Hi, Lori! Wow, you've been through a lot. Any possible withdrawal effects will really depend on how slowly the medication is tapered. If it's done very slowly and carefully, then they should be minimal. The most problematic are usually rebound effects, so you could experience increased asthma attacks and the like, but as I said a...

yellow coated tablet q on one side 100 on the other side
I am trying to find the identity of a yellow coated pill with Q impressed on one side and 100 impressed on the other side. Was told seroquil but can not find a match. ## HI, Dawn! I'm sorry, but I haven't been able to find a match for this, either. The Seroquel tablet with this marking has them both on the same side, it's manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals and is listed in their detailed product pages. Where did you find it? I'll keep searching and post back when I find something.

round white pill teva on one side and c over 2 ont ehe other
i have a round white pill with TEVA one one side and a C over a 2 on the other side. Does anyone know what this is ## Hi, Gary! Where did you find it? I am not 100% sure, since I can't find it listed in any of the databases yet, but I suspect that this is Teva's 2mg Clonazepam tablet. It originally had just the C2 on it, on one side, but they have recently been changing all of their products to add their TEVA logo. If that's what it is, it's a benzodiazepine that's commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders, it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, headache and irritability. Learn more Clonazepam details here. Do you have a large retailer nearby that has a high volume pharmacy, such as a Wal...

Was There a KONSYL recall?
Has there been a recall on this product? ## Hi, CatLady! I haven't found any information saying that there is a current recall on it. The last one I found listed was due to a labeling problem and occurred in 2011. However, since this isn't an item that completely falls under command of the FDA, the company isn't actually required to log a recall notice with them or any particular entity. Recalls are actually voluntary and up to their discretion, unless it's due to an issue that has the potential to be very dangerous. Did you try asking at your local stores to see if it was recalled or if they are just out of stock? ## Verwon, thanks for your info. I was inquiring for a friends and have passed on the info. Appreciate it.

stopped using clacee 500 mg can i go on after 2 days
I stopped using my antibiotics 2 Days ago can I start the course again on the 3 Rd day think i made a mistake to stop ( CLACEE 500Mg ) ## Hi, Fanie! Yes, it can be a mistake to stop, when you start taking antibiotics you should always finish the complete course of treatment, unless you suffer an allergic reaction to them, or your doctor tells you to stop taking them. At this point, having started and stopped, you no longer have enough left to finish a complete course of treatment. You should talk to your doctor and tell them what you did, so you can receive a new prescription to finish. Are there any other questions or concerns?

pictures of white round pill with ambee on one side
I found a pill has a line in the middle on one side and A M B E E on the otherside please help ## HI, Gabby! I'm sorry, but I haven't been able to find an identification for this, yet. I am not familiar with that logo, at all and I've seen tons of them. In light of that, my best guess is that it's either something that's available over the counter, since those aren't required to be listed with the FDA, or it's a foreign medication. Where did you find it? The best thing to do would just be to make sure to dispose of it properly.

Many doctors will look at this as drug seeking behavior. Whenever you see a new doctor, you need to make certain that you don't demand specific treatment, but you do want to take your medical records with you, or see that copies are sent to them. That way, they can see what has and hasn't worked for you in the past, plus they can see the results from any prior tests you've had perf...
