What are the active ingredients of Lortab? ## Its called Lortab. And its active ingrediant is Hydrocodone. Hydrocodone is an opiate pain killer. Lortab also contains Acetaminophen which is the active ingrediant in Tylenol. It is combined with Hydrocodone because it is said to intensify its effects. ## That is correct. It is narcotic pain reliever, so it does have the potential to be habit forming and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Learn more Lortab details here. Are there any questions or comments?

My prescription is for Hydroxyzpam (gen. for Vistaril) but most websites and other sources say that it is Hdroxyzine as the active ingrediant. Are they both the same thing? ## Hi Randolf, Apparently they are the same... Please see the following discussion thread for more information: /Forums/view_drug_submission.asp?Drug=hydroxypam&Page=107167 The drug Vistaril contains the active ingredient Hydroxyzine, and it appears that Hydroxypam may be a different brand name? ## Thanks for answering Roy.

I was recently switched from Alfuzosin Hydrochloride produced by Sun to one produced by Apotex. The only difference was the inactive ingredients. After the switch, I experienced two back-to-back episodes of severe dizziness and prolonged headaches after heavy exercise. I never experienced this severity during many years on the Sun product. I am wondering if there is are any active ingredients in the Apotex product which could have caused this - Dibasic Calcium Phosphate, Polyvinyl acetate phthalate, or Ferric Oxide Yellow. The other ingredients are the same. ## Hello, George! How are you? One of them could have caused it, if you're sensitive to it. However, you should have this checked out, to be sure of the cause. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibl...

Hello, I'm newly diagnosed with a corn allergy/intolerance. I've noticed my symptoms exacerbate when I take my morning medicine, which included Propranolol. Could you please tell me if corn of any corn byproducts or corn derivatives are in this medication. Since I've read that it's often in the capsules, it's making me concerned. And if it does contain corn can you tell me which Beta Blockers do not contain corn so I can pass the information on to my Doctor. Thank you in advance for your prompt reply. ## Can you please post back and let me know the manufacturer of the Propranolol you take, or the markings on them? There are various inactive ingredients that manufacturers can use. Since this is a generic medication, it is made by several different companies and they d...

Does tramadol 50mg contain codeine? The pharmacist that I spoke to while picking up the prescription assured me that it does not. I'm severely allergic to codeine and as I read the packet I got with the medication it says if you are severely allergic to codeine to not take this medication. Please help. ## Hello, Nicole! How are you? No, the pharmacist was correct. Tramadol is the active ingredient, it is a mild opioid analgesic. Thus, the FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. If you are allergic to one narcotic, there is always a risk that you may be allergic to others, but it isn't a very common occurrence. Tramadol itself, however, is not Codeine. Is there anything ...

Can I eat milk products while taking doxitet? ## Regarding your thread title, Doxycycline is the active ingredient in and of itself... As far as dairy products go, I would suggest staying away from them during your time on this medication. Reason being is that dairy products (particularly foods and drinks higher in calcium) do interact with Doxycycline, diminishing its efficacy due to decreased absorption of the medication. More details on this interaction can be found in the link below: drugtopics.modernmedicine.com/drug-topics/news/should-patients-doxycycline-avoid-dairy-products I hope this helps!

Hi everyone, I've been taking tramadol for a few years for a severe spinal stenosis, knee pain both knees (work related) upper arm pain, osteoporosis arthritis, etc. When I first started taking tramadol it was for a broken metatarsal in my right foot. I was originally given Vicodin, but I made me too loopy so took it to my doctor and asked for something else, he prescribed ultracet. It was great, no loopiness at all, I was still able to drive, work, etc. This became my drug of choice for pain. I requested it when I broke a metatarsal in left foot, then a fractured right big toe. Fast forward a few years to 2008, I lost vision so I started walking and catching the bus. That's when all of the other pains started. It began with pains in my back and left leg, and leg would fall asle...

Need to know all of the ingredients, active and inactive/other, of Adco-Bisocor please, as I am allergic to lactose, citric acid, etc. ## Sorry, I am new to this forum and do not know the ropes yet. This is not a reply, I am only trying to be more specific. As I use quite a few different chronic medications and am allergic to some ingredients, I need to know as much as possible about them. As my dr could not get hold of the regular CiplaZar 100 I usually take, he had to substitute it with Bilocor. As they both are generics, the inactive ingredients may differ and I was hoping that Bilocor does not contain the accursed citric acid and lactose which seem to be in more or less everything I have to take. Taking ten different chronic medications, the effect of all allergens combined is devas...
