I have been taking Nora_Be 0.35mg tabs for over year to decrease heavy bleeding during pre menopausal symptoms. It has workded, however for the past 10-12 months I have experienced terrible muscle spasms and tight contracted muscles in my legs and hips. At times it is extrememly difficult and painful to walk. I have tried numerous PT. and yoga to alleviate this with minimal success. I have decided to stop taking any oral medication to rule out this as a possible cause. Anyone else experience this as a possible side effect? ## I suggest speaking with your doctor, it could be a complication caused by the medication, but it is also possible that it is caused by something else entirely.

Unfortunately, since the Oregano is actually a supplement, it hasn't been studied in regards to possible interactions with medications. Learn more Apo Sulfatrim details here. Have you checked with your doctor or pharmacist? They may have more information for you.

potassium low. i take norvas, my doctor nurse called and told me to stop taking potassium, it was in my blood pressure medication. i have been taking noras for 15 years, in the last year , which a potassum pill was called in for me. never have they told me to stop. i do regular check up on my blood work. when my potassium is built up i stop the potassium. i dont want to have heart problems because my potassium running low. what is my answer? ## It is best to follow the instructions as provided by your doctor, having potassium levels that are too high can be just as dangerous as having potassium levels that are too low. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Norvasc as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. How are you doing, now? Has the...

orange oval pill 537 on one side ## I located the pill in description to be a combination of Tramadol Hydrochloride + Acetaminophen. Tramadol is used to treat moderate to moderately severe pain and most types of neuralgia, including trigeminal neuralgia. It has been suggested that tramadol could be effective for alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety because of its action on the noradrenergic and serotonergic systems, the involvement of which appears to play a part in its ability to alleviate the perception of pain.

small pink round pill with 30 printed to one side, the other side has a deep split line. all infomation on this would be greatly appreciated as i cannot find elsewhere ## Hi Girly, The closest match I've been able to locate is Mirtazapine (30 mg). It is a round light beige pill (that could be mistaken as light pink) with the imprint M 530 on one side and a deep score line on the other. Mirtazapine (Remeron, Avanza, Zispin) is a noradrenergic and specific serotonergic antidepressant (NaSSA) which was introduced by Organon International in the United States in 1990 and is used primarily in the treatment of depression. It is also commonly used as an anxiolytic, hypnotic, antiemetic, and appetite stimulant. Structurally, mirtazapine can also be classified as a tetracyclic antidepressant...

## would like to know what it looks like ## the 30 mg comes in a blue greenish caqpsule and the 10 comes in a capsule also just a little smaller ## are their morphine in red & white capsules? ## While I can see that Nora tried to provide some information, but that is not entirely correct, while Morphine is available in caspule form, it is also available in tablets. So, as to being able to say what it looks like, that is almost impossible. Once a med is available to be made and sold as a generic, when the proprietary name brand patent has run out, there are hundreds of pharmaceutical companies that can pick up the manufacture of it. There are also no guidelines in the pharmaceutical industry that says all pills or capsules with the same active ingredient must be the same size, shape,...

Loss hearing in my right ear after taking Metoprolol Tarta 50 mg. Woke up in the morning and couldn't hear out of my right ear at all and still can't hear out of it. I have an appointment with a ENT doctor day after tomorrow. Has anybody else had this problem and know what can be done for it? It's driving me bonkers. Thanks, Nora ## How long were you taking it? Learn more Metoprolol details here. It's not a side effect commonly caused by this medication. It's also possible that it's due to a blockage, water in the ear, or an infection. Can you post back and let me know what the ENT says? ## I only took Metoprolol a few days. I take other medications too. I go to the ENT doctor today so I will see what he says. My B/P is hard to control even with medication so it ...

So what shouldn't I ask my doctor to switch me to, percusets ?I don't want to take oxycodon but I have been taking loratab ten years..so would the percusets be the next level to move to?

This summer has been a rough summer for my body. In May I had a superlight period, then June, July and August basically had my period for 3 weeks straight then off my period then 3 weeks again. They are super heavy and filled with a lot clots. In August I went to the doctor, had a ultrasound done, biopsy and everything came back normal, though she did say I had debris up there. She put me on medroxy, where i would start it on the 10th-end it on the 24th. I had my period when I started, it seemed to stop for about 5 days and now its been back for almost a week and its super heavy and clotty. She gave me a 3 month supply of this, does it take awhile for it to work. I am feeling little weak and tired and am sick of supporting Tampax on my own. Help! ## Hello, Nora! How are you? It seems yo...

I took Perindopril for around 5 months until about 6 weeks ago when I began to feel really ill. ( I already have vit D deficiency and I take fultium for this) . I think I started with a cough and high urine output soon after I'd started taking Perendopril. So, after stopping the Perindopril 6 weeks ago I still can't stop the urge to urinate or the coughing. And I cannot pick up from feeling ill and tired with aching bones and muscles (as well as the aching bones and muscles from the vit D). How long does it take to get over Perindopril as, even though I'm 77 years, I was really active and vibrant before the Perindopril. It's lethal. Thanks for listening. ## Hello, Nora! How are you feeling? I'm very sorry about what you're dealing with, that's awful. How much...

I was given Metoprolol Tarta 50 mg. and it says to take one twice a day. I didn't take that much and it made me not be able to sleep like a lot of other beta blockers do. After taking it I woke up the other day and can't hear out of my right ear at all. I heard this medication is a ototoxic and can cause hearing loss. I have an appointment with a ENT doctor day after tomorrow. Has anybody else had this problem? I am now on two other B/P meds that work good and I can sleep good. This not being able ot hear out of my right ear is getting to me. I don't know what the doctor can do to get my hearing back. Hope this isn't permanent. I would appreciate any advice concerning this. Thanks, Nora ## There have been others that reported experiencing ototoxicity from taking Metoprol...

Hello, I am on clonidine hcl 0.2 mg. twice a day. I started on the Mylan brand and only took it for one month. Then I went to a different drug store and they gave me the Actavis brand. I have been taking the Actavis brand a few months now, but it seemed like the Mylan was better. I just got a new perscription of the Mylan brand again and just took my first pill. Can you all tell me which of these two brands of clonidine hcl work best for you or if you can tell any difference. After I am on the Mylan again for awhile I will post here again and let you know if it is really better then the Actavis. Anything anybody can tell me that have tried both of these brands of this medication would be of great help. Thanks, nora ## Hi, Nora! Sorry about the problem you've had. To clear it up for ...

I have started loweing my dose to come off Methadone. I am on 58 mgs I got on Methodone to quit talking pain meds .The clinic I go to did not want me to go down they told me I am supposed to stay on it a least 9 months I told the it's a tool to help me stop taking pills not a life time use .Well they where upset I believe it's because if the money my counselor will not speak to me and has bit talked about takes out .I'm glad I don't live far from the clinic .
