3 Months Before

I'm 18/yrs old, usually fit and healthy. Was told that I should have replaced my implant months before the actual expiry date which is of November this yr & have booked an appointment for June. Lately I've been feeling the urge to vomit (especially after eating, when eating, quite often through out the day), needing to go to the bathroom a lot, weight gain recently (usually stay the same weight), feeling heavier on my lower tummy and lack of energy. I strongly don't think it's possible for me to be pregnant as it has worked for so long and I took a pregnancy test about a month ago and it came up negative. I also have some knowledge that the implant gives you pregnancy symptoms, which I have had before... But this feeling is different. Is this normal? ## While pregnan...

I have a written prescription from my primary doctor dated 11/20/10 for Hydrocodone. What is the last date it can be filled by a pharmacist? ## Hydrocodone is a narcotic pain reliever and, therefore, a controlled substance, so most pharmacies will not fill it this long past the date it was written. You can ask, because some pharmacy policies vary, but the chance of getting anyone to do so, without approval from your doctor is highly unlikely. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and dry mouth. Learn more: Are there any other comments or questions? ## A prescription of this type (a schedule III controlled substance) is good for 6 months also it only is refillable 5 times not counting the original fill.

Have been taking Multaq for six months now . It has not stopped my afib, but has kept it at a rate that I can deal with. My pulse does not get as high as it has in the past, sending me to the hospital .The episodes have not lasted as long as before the Multaq.! I also was taking Xarelto. Did not tolerate Pradaxa. Now after the second time on Zarelto I have again had blood in urine. After stopping the Zarelto , the blood in urine has ceased. ## The Xarelto contains the active ingredient Rivaroxaban, which is an anticoagulant that helps prevent blood clotting, so it does increase the risk of bleeding. Learn more Xarelto details here. So, that's likely why you had blood in your urine. It may just not be the right medication for you, since it could be that it's causing your blood to...

Can augmentin be taken before a dentist visit to clean the teeth? What would the dosage be if you have 875-125 MG tab? ## Hello, Bert! How are you? If an antibiotic is required, it's usually just plain Amoxicillin. Have you checked with your doctor or dentist? The dose is also usually right around 1,000mgs or so taken just before you go in for the procedure.

Day 17 no oxy, detoxed without sub. Valium, clonidine , robaxin and a few others. When will I be normal again. I am good in the morning, by 1pm I am a jack ass and my legs hurt and everything pisses me off. can't crack a smile to save my life. ## So, you just stopped the Oxycodone, without tapering? That's pretty high of a dosage to do that with, even though you were only on it for four months. And to be honest, it may take 4 to 6 weeks, before you start to feel more normal and have less of those annoying symptoms. From my own experience stopping large doses of narcotics cold turkey after stopping pain management, I can tell you that it was about a month for the pain to ease up and about 6 to 8 weeks for the mental symptoms, such as irritability to ease off. Is it the only medic...

I have been taking Lomedia 24fe for 6 months, have never missed a pill and take at same time every day. I always had a light period before taking the pill and had spotting when taking the brown pills for the first 4 months but have not had a period the past two months. Is it normal to stop having a period while taking Lomedia 24fe? Pregancy tests are negative. ## I've also been exactly on lomedia for 6 months. This month I didn't get a period, haven't missed a pill at all. I'll be taking a pregnancy test, though I have no signs of pregnancy. It's kind of freaking me out too! ## Hello, Annabelle and Suzanne! How are both of you ladies? Yes, some women don't have periods, when taking oral contraceptives.

I want to know how many days do I have to stop belviq so that I can enjoy a glass of wine? ## According to NIH.gov, the half-life of Belviq (lorcaserin) is said to be approximately 11 hours. From what I've been told by medical professionals (I haven't verified this myself yet), it usually takes about 3 to 5 half lives in order for most drugs to be completely excreted from your body (aside from maybe hair follicle samples). Having said that, I would probably encourage you to double check with your prescribing doctor just to be on the safe side, but it sounds to me like it would probably be an estimated 3 days or so before you'd be in the clear. I hope this helps!

I've been taking 2-4 norco 5-325 almost daily for about 3 months. I have large cysts on my ovaries along with endometriosis and adanonmyosis. I'm in pain about 3 weeks out of the month. I'm having surgery on Thursday the 11th to remove the cysts and one ovary and burning the endometriosis tissue. I ran out of pills a few days ago and of course my doctor is on vacation and not responding. My friend has hydromorphone left over from a old surgery/ injury but what I've read says not to take it before surgery. I'm having some withdrawal symptoms and I'm worried the withdrawal will affect the surgery but I'm worried about taking themy before surgery also. I'm in a lot of pain and plain tylenol is not helping. ## I think in this unique situation it would probabl...

Hi. I'm 22 yrs old.. I'm having delayed menstruation for 2 months every time! no intercourse, no pill, no preg! Is there anyway of making it regular?? do hormonal pills hamper the cycle? ## Hello, Bhanu! How are you? What do you mean by delayed? Do you mean you're only having a period every 2 months? Have you consulted a doctor? Before a remedy can be found, you need to discover what's causing the issue. ## Actually im being diagnosed as hypothyroidism since 12 yrs... Im on thyronorm 100mcg...

My mother had multiple pulmonary emblisions in both lungs, age 77. She takes Eliquis 5mg twice a day, which I believe should always be written "Take 1 tablet every 12 hours". Her doctor has her go off of it for 2 days prior to get blood tests, every 6 months I've read stopping it suddenly can cause a stroke..WHY is the doctor insisting on this? ## The blood work is normal, due to the risk to your kidneys, someone taking Eliquis should have their levels checked at least once a year, having her stop it for two days, before, may also be due to a possible bleeding issue, though only her doctor can answer that question for sure. Eliquis may cause other side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and easy bruising. Ref: Eliquis Information Is she also on other medications?

Could I give half of 30 mg ambroxol to my daughter? My doctor didn't recommend it but as a parent I want my daughter who is 2 yrs and 4 months stop coughing so I' m thinking to give it t0 her. My doctor gave it to me when I was back home from the Phils. ## Hi Ann, If your doctor didn't recommend that you give this medication to your child, then I imagine the safest thing to do would be to listen to him/her. I have read that it isn't safe to give a child under the age of 2 any cough/cold medication. At your child's age, there is no way to know how medications could effect her system and her growth. Have you tried giving her a hot bath or used a humidifier in her room? The steam may help to loosen up her cough. Here is a link to a page on the FDA site with information ...

Hello, I have been going to physiatrist and getting brintellix for about 3 months. Before taking any meds I constantly having suicidal thoughts very frequently. Then I start to go to physiatrist and taking brintellix 5mg for about 2 months, I was getting better until they change brintellix dose to 10mg. Now I’m back to where I was before taking any meds, getting worse and worse.

Iam 5 months pregnant. i dont have any problem in my pregnancy since. but eventhough my doctor prescribed me to take duvadilan two times a day for a month. i already take it for 5 days. is it is safe? is it have any side effect on my baby? from taking the tablet onwards i cant able to do any work , having severe nausea. shall i discontinue the usage. pls. reply. ## Have you consulted with your doctor, regarding your concerns about using it and the nausea? This contains the active ingredient Isoxsuprine, it is a vasodilator that is used to improve blood flow, however, it can cause the nausea you are experiencing and it may also elevated your heart rate and blood pressure, which could create complications. Have you ever had a problem pregnancy, before?

I've been on Vyvanse for 3 months, first started at 30mg, than 50m, than 60 mg, a month before each increase.I went up to 70mg and it made me tired , talk excisively and I often repeat myself like Iiwll say somehting then say again a minute or a few seconds later like I didnt say it or explain enough detail..after 3 weeks, I went back down to 60mg and now, I have a little more energy but I feel confussed and having anxiety, like people thnk I'm weird or on somethin, my mind seems to be confused.

I just started taking methadone a couple days ago for pain because I was in a pain clinic taking Oxycodone (perks) and Oxycontin (extended release perks) both at 10mg 3x a day but I would take more than prescribed because it didnt help my pain at that amount alone. Then I found out i am pregnant and those meds are category B in the FDA database so its safer to take them while pregnant but I missed one appointment at the pain center that i didnt even know about they made an appointment for me without seeing if i could make it and didnt notify me prior to the appointment day so of course i missed it. Then they kicked me out and said i refused a pill count that i didnt even know i had i mean C'MON thats stupid. but anyway before that happened my doctor put me on this Butrans patch 5 mi...

Have you consulted your doctor? They should be able to help you find a way to regulate your cycles.

I had my period may 5 through 10 and had it again may 31st through 5 and I have it again June 24 ## Hello, Kayla! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you're having. Those are still normal cycle lengths, it's counted from the first day of your last period to the day before you start the next. Every now and then, depending on the number of days in the month and how it falls, we all usually end up with a month where we have two, one at the beginning and one right at the end. But anything over 21 days is considered a normal cycle, according to the NIH. Are you on any medications? How long is your normal cycle? When was your last pap smear?
