My doctor has advised chymonac tabs. Alongwith D-Gain & Gemcal -DS for degenerative changes in LS spine. I have constipation problem after taking these med. Pl. Advise is it side effect of these med? I am 70 year old. ## Based on my research, 'constipation' is in fact listed as a side effect of Gemcal-DS (calcitriol). If however, its become too bothersome or severe, I would strongly recommend contacting your doctor as soon as possible to find a more appropriate solution. Have you considered supplementing with any laxatives or digestive enzymes to help breakdown food blockages in the intestines? Just adding a bit more fiber to your diet may even help relieve much of the constipation. Fruits such as, bananas, dates, rasins, apples, apple juice and apple cider are also natural ...

Good day, I've been using Fortzaar for 2 years now, and as soon as I ran out of tablets, I get severe muscle, joint & stomach pains. My face also feels numb on the one side, though my blood pressure is normal 137/77, as soon as I start taking the tablets again all the above symtoms disappear?? ## You really shouldn't run out and miss tablets, because it can cause dangerous rebound effects. The other slight withdrawal effects you've experienced are also normal, if you suddenly stop taking a medication that your body is used to. This medication should be taken regularly, as prescribed and you should pick up a refill, before you run out. Learn more Losartan details here. Learn more Hydrochlorothiazide details here. You should really discuss the facial numbness with your doc...

I have been on Myfortic for a year to treat auto-immune disorders. There have been days where I will be riddled with tremors and have had my potassium and sodium levels drop to dangerous levels. Has anyone else experienced the uncontrollable shaking? Is it related to the Myfortic? Is there anything I can do next time it happens so I don't have to go to the ER? ## Myfortic contains the active ingredient Mycophenolic Acid, it is used for immune suppression. Have you consulted your regular doctor about this? None of these are listed as common side effects of the medication, but there is really no way to say what long-term use may do to any particular person. Has the hospital been able to provide with information on what's causing the problems? You may need to supplement your levels...

I was put on a T3 compound of 15 micrograms twice a day and Synthroid. I ended up having about four to five incidents where I had severe stomache cramping and then violent vomiting and a month or two after starting the meds. I did ask my Dr. about it and he said he did not know what that would be from and ordered a food allergy test, which came back fine. I did not feel like the Dr. cared and I did not want to continue having those incidents so I stopped taking the meds. I have not had any of those incidents since but of course I am having all the super sucky symptoms that required the meds in the first place so now I am trying to figure out on my own how I can fix this. Has anyone else experienced this? If so how was it fixed? Why would this happen? Is this a side effect of the T3 or S...

However, I don't know if would treat the type of pain that Tinita was asking about, since it's hard to guess at what may be causing her pain.

Are there any comments or questions?

My husband is taking the following medications: Olmetec 40mg + Zanidip 10mg + Plavix 75mg + Lasix 40mg + Cartia aspirin 100mg; 1 each morning. He is also taking: 2 Panadol Osteo 5mg x 3 times daily + 1 Pregabalin 25mg + 1 Vytorin 10/40mg at night. All prescribed by his GP. He had a triple bypass in 2014; stents 1 in Feb, 2 in Nov 2016; Radical prostectomy for cancer in 2006; Radiation for secondary cancers in 2009; Neurosurgery for a subdural hemorrhage in 2013. He has had breathing problems and used inhalers off and on for 4 years (is now off these). He does have asbestos fibers in his lungs, but thankfully no major problems there. But he is having problems with tiredness throughout the day and is constantly sleeping. Is this due to the mixture of drugs he is on now?

I have been taking exforge hct for several years. I am convinced that I have a chronic stuffed nose as a side effect. I have had surgery. But the stuffed nose returned. I told my doctor that prescribed this medication that I think my stuffed nose is because of this but he continues to prescribe it. I continue to take it . And I dont sleep well with a chronic stuffed nose. ## Exforge HCT contains Amlodipine, Valsartan and Hydrochlorothiazide, this combination medication is used to treat high blood pressure and some cardiac conditions. And, yes, the nasal congestion is actually listed as a very common side effect of using this medication, along with nausea, peripheral edema and dizziness. Have you tried asking your doctor about switching to a different medication?

I am non diabetic but obese 48-year-old female. My doctor gave me Glucomet 500 mg half tablet morning and half tablet in the night for weight reduction. Is it safe for a non diabetic to take diabetic medicine? ## HI, Malathi! Yes, it's safe as long as your doctor is going to be supervising you regularly. When it's used in such cases, it's due to your doctor suspecting that you may be insulin resistant, thus an antidiabetic medication may help improve your situation and enable you to lose weight. You may experience some side effects from it, such as nausea, headache and flatulence. Is there anything else I can help with?

My 17 year old daughter was prescribed a 6 day Medrol pack and 6 day Z-pack for a sinus infection. On day 3 she got hit with significant depression that has gotten worse each day even though the dose is decreasing. Talked to the doctor today and he told her to stop taking it (she will only miss the very last day of 4 mg). Wondering how long it might take for her emotions to stabilize. ## Hello, Donna! How is she doing? It may take a week, or so, before the side effects fully go away. Others, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include acne, headache and insomnia. Has she shown any improvement, yet? ## My m.d. put me on Medrol pack.I did not sleep last night after only 1 day of this med.Second day after my dinner dose I started having anxiety and depression.The medrol pack was #4.I want t...

I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and took mostly Ritalin. I stopped somewhere around 4th or 5th grade. By the time college rolled around, I knew that my concentration issues were likely due to ADHD, so I got retested at a psychology facility (it was something like 6-7 hours of various tests) and was formally diagnosed with ADHD again at the age of 19. That was 7 years ago. I took amphetamine salts (short-acting) generic for several years with no side effects that I noticed. I stopped for almost two years during pregnancy and breastfeeding because I really didn't want to be taking a stimulant that could potentially affect my unborn child or get into my breast milk. When I finished (which was a couple months ago) I decided to get back onto the medicine. Since my insurance changed,...

However, you should be made aware the medications containing Dextropropoxyphene and it's relatives have been pulled from the market in most countries, due to the extreme risk they cause of cardiac dangers. What other medications have you tried? ## Thank you Verwon for your response. Since it has been pulled of the market i am using...

Hello everyone. I'm trying to compile a list of people who've experienced adverse reactions and life changing side effects from medicine. I lost my mother last year due to a medication she was taking, that caused cancer. I'm now on a mission to help save other people's lives and the spread awareness about the potential dangers of the medications we take daily. If you don't mind, could you list a medicine that has impacted your life in a bad way, what medicine it was, and what problems it caused you. I will also be drafting a petition to the drug makers, the FDA and whomever else I can. Thank you everyone. ## Hello, Erica! How are you? I am so very sorry about the loss of your mother, that's just such a tragic thing to occur from a medication that is supposed to h...
