I have quite a large round pink pill with "Citra" on one side and "100" on the other side. Has anyone else gotten these before?

Hi is there a specific product in the market that I can use to stop my stilpane addiction???? ## Hi sherry, From what I've read, Stilpane contains 370mgs of Paracetamol, 185mgs of Meproamate, and 8mgs of Codeine. And if you have been taking them everyday for an extended period of time, there are actually two possible problems you should be aware of. This first is that Codeine is a narcotic, so it can be habit forming and addicting. A sudden cessation of it, in such instances, may cause serious withdrawal effects, such as fever, chills, nausea and vomiting. However, the most concerning ingredient for those with an addiction to the medication, is actually the Paracetamol. Based on my research, long-term use of just regular amounts can still cause liver and kidney damage. That said, it...

Active Ingredients: -Betamethasone Dipropionate 0.05% -Clotrimazole 1% -Gentamicin Sulfate 0.1% Dosage Form: Tube Ointment Manufacturer: Collins Productos Farmaceuticos Availability: Mexico ## is it ok to use on burns ## This medication is unavailable in the U.S. and I am sorry to say that other countries do not regulate their prescription drugs as strictly as the FDA does. That said, finding information on them is very difficult, since there are no databases which list them all, like there are for U.S. prescription drugs. The only thing I can suggest is that you try asking your doctor or pharmacist for more information. ## One product we found is called Gelmicin, a topical antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and antifungal. These products are normally sold separately in the US, whether for i...

How can i start a new one, diba we have to take a pill on the first day of our menstruation? Pls help.. ## Oo, maaari itong normal, kapag pagkuha ng kapanganakan control, upang hindi magkaroon ng isang panregla panahon, kahit na hindi ka buntis.

I have been having anxiety attacks for years and had mistaken it for severe depression. After having my third child they started to become out of control. I've seen a few doctor's that all seem to want to try a large combination of meds and diagnose me with a number of things... one doctor (that no longer is in this state) prescribed 1mg xanax and I felt as if I could get on my knees and cry out thank you. I felt cured. Then he left state and another doctor put me on ativan 1mg 2x a day and it didn't kick in until after the damage of the attack was done and after me freaking out or pulling over on road to cry... then it would last way longer and I felt a bit like a zombie where the xanax would kick in fast, take care of the issue and leave soon after. Too many ppl abuse the ...

I get abdominal migraines, basically it’s a migraine in your stomach instead of your head and it’s absolutely horrible. It’s like a stabbing pain with nausea and vomiting, and also diarrhea. Should I try to put anything in my stomach it’s immediately rejected however my body can figure out how to do that and they last between one and three days. This medication aborted an episode, it took about four hours instead of the one hour it claims, but it actually worked. I could tell I was still in pain because I was kind of hunched over when I would walk and I would catch myself doing the stomach pain type of breathing, if you’ve had that kind of pain you know what I’m talking about. But I was detached, it was like I was observing pain but not feeling it. I ...

I filled a mail order prescription for bactrim and when i received it, it said becotrim 960. Is this the same? The pills came from india / combitic global caplet pvt ltd. ## Bactrim is sold in the U.S. as an antibiotic for bacterial infections. I researched and looked for becotrim 960. I'm unable to find anything about the becotrim. You said it came from India. The United States do import medications because we do have manufacturing plants in countries like India. However, did you have a prescription for it or did you just wanted to order from a site without having to use a prescription? The pill could very well be Bactrim or it could very well be useless. This is why I go to a local pharmacy, which will carry this product. Did the pharmacy you use have Bactrim DS (double strength)....

I am so confused about Teva diazepam in the US. I can get one batch of it and be OK for a while and then the next batch I am in cold turkey withdrawal symptoms. The last time this happened was in May and the pharmacy exchanged it for a different lot. The new lot still wasn't as good as the old one, but it was better. And I got used to it. And now the newest one I got is even worse where I've had daily headaches and extreme agitation. This pharmacy in particular always puts lot numbers on their bottles so I can see when it changes. But I wasn't looking for it. I only noticed the symptoms about 5 days after changing and looked at the bottle and then saw for the six months prior (I'm collecting the pharmacy bottles for an art project) I was getting the same lot. As soon as ...

I have taken amoxicilina many times during my life; bought in the US and in Honduras. This last week I got a bottle of 60 capsulas while in Cozumel, to complete my antibiotic treatment (I lost the previous amoxi I was taking). I am very familiar with the smell and taste of amoxicilina and penicillin. I open the capsules when I take it, it tastes bad, and has a unique taste & smell (also in urine). The current bottle I just purchased, red & white capsulas, is a white powder with NO taste nor smell. Furthermore, it appears to have no affect on my sinusitis, and NO odor in urine. This is the first Amoxi I have ever taken that is like this (no taste & no odor. So common sense tells me I HAVE BEEN ROBBED. If this is COUNTERFEIT Amoxi, we need to STOP ITS SALE. The bottle I have s...

I found two white, round pills on the floor while cleaning my place. I'm renting so maybe they were left behind? On one side is what looks like the planet Saturn, and the other side is scored down the middle. I have no idea what they are and can't find any information about them. Anyone have any idea what these are? I'm scared there may be more and I don't want my dog eating them because I have absolutely no idea what kind of pill this is. ## Hi Alice, There seem to be a few suspects with similar pill descriptions that offer clues as to what yours might be (based on having a saturn-like imprint)... Perhaps the following list can generate some new leads on further search efforts: "XTC" Hydroxycut (by iovate) Tamoxifen / Nolvadex (by AstraZeneca) Anapolon / Oxymeth...

Is it ok to take instaflex if u have heart problems, high blood pressure, cholesterol, and thyriod problems? ## Instaflex is an over the counter product that is claimed to help with joint health, so as nothing more than a dietary supplement, it hasn't actually been tested for possible interactions with medications and health conditions. However, since I am also a hypertension and cardiac patient, I can tell you that one of the ingredients in it is Black Pepper and it can cause blood pressure elevations in some people. It can really depend on the person, so I'd suggest checking with your doctor, or pharmacist, before taking it. From what I've found, any of the various pepper extracts can cause blood pressure elevations in some people, so you have to be careful about taking th...

Good day. I was put on Nuzak about a month ago. I went to the doctor for back pain, then she saw me shaking or shivering. I mentioned that this was in my family since my father has the same symptoms as me but now lately these symptoms have increased. I've been more shaky then ever and I'm starting to stutter which I never did or as a child had it. I'm beginning to think that this is just worsening the situation and that the DR scratched where it didn't concern her. I work on a daily basis with a lot of clients and this is embarrassing because now I seem incompetent as if I do not know my job or work. This week I stopped taking it and now I'm wondering how long it will take to fully clear out of my system? Please is anybody experiencing this or is it just something wr...

Morphine user 145 ER, Norco 10/325 6 per day for a severed ulnar nerve for 23 years. Just had a neurostimulator implanted and weened down so far to 30mg am and 15mg afternoon with prn Norco, 3-5 daily. I'm taking weening slowly but the answer to a lot of the above problems could be solved by use of a neurostimulator. ## I am very glad that it's helping you, and reducing your dependence on the medications, however, as with everything else, it isn't viable for everyone that's in pain, and it doesn't work for everyone that tries it.

My husband is sensitive to medications. When we find one he can tolerate, it has to always be by that manufacturer, otherwise he has abdominal pain, bloating, gas, etc. when he starts a new medication, sometimes have to try several manufacturers before we can find one he tolerates. Manufacturers are changing all the time. Most likely he has a sensitivity or allergy to a filler. Is there any way to find a way or is there a way to find out what causes these problems? I live in fear every 3 months when I have to refill any of his 7 meds. I need help. Any suggestions? ## Has your husband ever been tested for allergies, and sensitivities? Have you tried checking the inactive ingredients of his medications to see if you can pinpoint what might be causing the problem when he tries a new one? R...

I have been on valium for approximately 12 years for severe anxiety and because of a severe back problems i was also put on percocet for years. Someone told me about suboxone. They said suboxone will help with the pain. So i went to a sub doc and told him i was on valium. He did not give me a U/A till months later. Doc said you are on a benzo. l said is that the valiums? He said yes. I said i told you i was on valium. He said you have to go off them. I was told if i go off my valiums i could have a seizure. I have been off the valium for a week. I am shaking and can't sleep. I feel sick. I was doing great with suboxone and valium. Now i am just sick. Please, someone help me. ## Suboxone is not going to help pain. Suboxone is another addiction. Go to your doctor and tell him/her that...

How can I convince my Dr. I need Valium or anti anxiety along with my suboxone been on for 4 years. He is reluctant to prescribe klonipin for any length of time. I'm going to ask for Valium this time. I really do need something. I got divorced after 28 years and have lost 4 siblings in 4 years Without anxiety meds I won't hardly leave my house. I get so overwhelmed with anxiety I do anything ## Your suboxone doc is reluctant because suboxone and valium (which is a benzodiazepine) are both respiratory depressants. You could quit breathing. I've been on them both together and have never had a problem, but Doctors have to cover their own arse and that is the clinical finding as of now. Good luck ## Are you on Sub's for Addiction? That would explain it. Try Gabapentin it wor...
