20 One Side Split Fl Other

The pharmacy pamphlet says not to break or crush but I'm wondering if I can split my 20 MG Dicyclomine tablets in half to see what effects the med will have on me before taking a whole 20 MG tablet. I have read on forums that people do split them all the time but I would feel better hearing the answer from a professional. So is it okay ti split a 20 MG dicyclomine tablet in half? ## If the instructions for the ones you have say not to break, or crush them, then you should not do so. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, flatulence, and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I didn't realize anything said you weren't supposed to break them. Obviously that wouldn't work with capsules lol, ...

If you cut in half a new oxycontin OP no matter the doses (10, 20, 30, 40 etc.) does it retain the same time release quality? I am dropping down and want to know if 2.5 is just that, a time released 2.5? A drop from 3 mgs will help with my goal to get to zero, asap. I don't want a sudden flood of oxy hitting my system. This is about detoxing..... ## Hello, Gantlope! How are you? No, it still isn't safe to cut them, you may still get too much of the Oxycodone. If you wish to taper off, it would be best to ask your doctor about prescribing the non-time released tablets, which you can cut. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipati...

Anyone have any luck splitting prescriptions for 15 mg oxycodone instead of oxy 30? I go back to DR and hate even thinkin about the agony of a med change. Is anyone finding any reolutions for this....seems like this is going on all over the country? Maybe after 10 or 20 people die of abruptly stopping these meds, or commit suicide from dealing with chronic pain, somebody will step up and DO something!!! This is crap!!!! ## I had the same trouble with all 5 Walgreen's in my Northern New Mexico area, not a single brand or generic Oxycodone 30mg to be had. I have term. cancer and my Rx is for #240 p/m. They know me well and realize that I'm no drug seeker so it wasn't that sort of problem, they were just plain out. I asked my pharmacist if it would cause me trouble if I tried t...

9 Year old was at dr today for stomach flu. Called in rx to pharmacy. When I arrived home now I see it says 4pills 1 time daily so that would be 2000 mg at once for 10 days.......is that safe ? ## Hello, Kathy! How is your son doing? Why was it prescribed for flu? Antibiotics are only effective at treating bacterial infections, as listed by the FDA, they will not treat the flu, which is caused by a virus. Unless he has developed some type of infection, then it isn't appropriate. Typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. As to the dosage, that's not too much in a day, though it may cause more side effects than lower dosages, but it is also usually split up and taken 2 to 3 times daily. Have you double c...

I've been taking bupropion XL 150 mg once a day now for 6 days now and as the day go on I have a strange feeling in my body kind of like some anxiety by the evening!! I also take 40mg of Fluoxetine daily. I've been taking 20 mg of the fluoxetine for 25 years with no side effects. But this feeling I get from the bupropion is not good. My Dr added it because the depression started coming back!! I also have dry mouth and a faint headache. Will these symptoms go away? ## Hello, Maud! How are you? Yes, these symptoms may go away, after a month or so, once your body gets used to the medication. In the meantime, you may want to talk to your doctor about splitting your dose of Fluoxetine, taking half in the morning and half in the evening, that may help. Is there anything else I can hel...
