Where can i get comtrex? ## Comtrex contains Pseudoephedrine, along with Acetaminophen and Chlorpheniramine as the active ingredients, so it is now kept behind the pharmacy counter. You'll have to go to the pharmacy and ask for it, which means presenting an ID and signing for the purchase. ## Where can I get comtrex over the counter?

Does the drug benedectin cause kidney disease ## Hi Bethany, I haven't come across any information in the way of kidney disease, but a list of side effects on one of Bendectin's active ingredients "Doxylamine", goes on to show that 'difficulty urinating' is a serious adverse effect that should be reported to your doctor immediately. Ref: nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a682537.html If not treated, I'm sure difficulty urinating could lead to more problematic conditions over time. I hope this info helps!

Another reputed institute specialised in deabetology have precribed me glycomet trio 1 which is much effective. guide me which medicine i should continue. ## Since you're asking for guidance on which medication you should use for type 2 diabetes, I feel compelled to share my opinion on another avenue of treatment that may not have been considered. You may not have known this, but type 2 diabetes occurs from the food you eat on a day to day basis and has been proven to be reversed and cured on numerous occasions by simply changing your diet. If you do your homework, there are plenty of testimonies and scientific evidence demonstrating how Dia...

I'm looking for a vitamin B complex with Diclofenac, I can get it from Mexico but I want to buy it here in the USA, Does anybody know where I can get it and what it's called? ## There isn't one, that's not a combination that the FDA will allow to be on the U.S. market due to safety concerns. There are many people that would take it and likely not realize that it contained a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, with the vitamins. Additionally, the Diclofenac is also only available here by prescription, because of the risks it can cause. Learn more B vitamin details here. Learn more Diclofenac details here.

What medication is comparable to losartan hctz 100 25 mg at a much cheaper price? ## Hello, Rusty! How are you? You might want to ask your pharmacy if the price is any better if they are prescribed separately, rather than as one medication. You could also ask them the prices on others, such as the generic for Benicar HCT. This mediation is listed by the FDA as being most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, dehydration, increased urination and hypotension. Have you discussed the issue with your doctor? They may know what else is cheaper in your area.

I am taking supraneuron for the first time. I merely asked the pharmacy for any vitimin b-complex and this tablet was recommended to me. For 2 days now, since I started taking the tablet, I seem to feel very slight difficulty of breath. I am not sure if it is because of the table, though. I wish to know the contents of the tablet, including indications. Unfortunately, the pharmacy where I bought the medicine has no available literature regarding the medicine. ## Have you spoken to your doctor? This tablet contains 250mgs of B1, 250mgs of B6 and 500mcgs of B12. However, even though it is just a vitamin, you do have to be careful, because too much of vitamin B12 can be just as dangerous as not having enough. You should talk to your doctor, so they can get to the root of the problem, which...

If you have Japanese friends, you should ask him/her to google fincom in Japanese katakana letter. Then you will find out how popular the med is.

My husband has recently started taking 20 mg lipitor and is experiencing severe joint discomfort after that .Doctor has advised to lower the dose to 10mg .How can we cope with this,if anyone has experienced the same. ## Lipitor contains the active ingredient Atorvastatin, which is used to help lower cholesterol. The joint/muscle aches are very common side effects of this class of medications and in some people they are so severe that they have to discontinue use of the medication and try something else. Lowering the dose may help, but it could still take several weeks for those effects to taper off. Did his doctor suggest anything else he could use in the meantime to alleviate it? ## Thanks for the insight...his doctor has asked to stop that ,as according to him any other statin can cau...

The reason I'm asking is because if you've been on it for awhile and just recently started the Lisinopril for blood pressure elevation, there's a chance that the contraceptives are what's causing the elevation and you may not need to take another medication. There's a chance it could be resolved by just stopping the hormonal contraceptives. Depending on how high it is, you may need a blood...

Similar med this too expensive ## Effexor is a similar medication and is available as a generic, under the name Venlafaxine, so that's an option you could ask your doctor about trying.

I immediately sent this package back. I noticed today that I had a charge pending on my bank account in the amount of $87.47. I called their 800 number (available on their webpage) and waited for 15 minutes. A man answered the phone and told me that this would be a RECURRING MONTHLY CHARGE. He did say they could cancel future payments, and I did specifically ask them to do so. He proceeded to tell me that they could not refund the charge that was already pending. He said you cannot just send the product back, you have to call in and get a special address and cancel confirmation code. I informed him that I would take action to stop the payment through my bank then, as I was not paying for an unopened product, or for a product that I do not have. He was very rude to me, and HUNG UP ON ME....

This cream is used for pain as an anti-inflammatory. The common name is Reme-DHP (alt sp. D-HP). It is compounded by my Pharmacist as a cream/lotion and I think it contains: Topiramate Celecoxib 200mg Gabapentin Duloxetine 60mg Lidoderm (Lidocaine) Ethyl Alcohol 190 proof I was wondering if it is also marketed under any other names? ## Hi Karen, thanks for sharing these details. I wanted to ask if you can verify that this compounded cream does in fact contain Topiramate? The other ingredients make sense since they are either a topical anesthetic or have secondary uses for neuropathic pain. But I'm not seeing any off label uses listed by the FDA or NIH of Topiramate for treating pain. I could very well be missing something. May I ask how you ended up getting this specific cream presc...

Do the compounded oxys work just as good as tabs? ## Do compounded oxys work as good as.oxys tabs ## What compound are you asking about? Most Oxycodone medications are available in tablet form, there are only a few available in capsules, such as the immediate release Oxycodone. Or did you mean something your doctor specially ordered to be done by a compounding pharmacy? Oxycodone is a narcotic and will work as such, regardless of what form it is in, however, it is sometimes coupled with Acetaminophen, to enhance its effects, in preparations such as Percocet.
