Ive been on sprintec fo march april. I have not missed a dose and I have taken them on time. ## These oral contraceptives definitely effect everyone differently, but I am curious to know if sprintec has been working well for you? I was just on another thread here and noticed a lady who was taking sprintec, but was very concerned because she had missed her period by a few days or longer. Same thing happened to my gf while she was on it, although I'm fairly certain that she missed a few days of taking it.

I've started the HP Pack but I took the first sachet over 3 days instead of taking it all the first day and then moved to the next sachet. After 3 days I realized the mistake. Now I am having abdominal pain & not sure what to do & the impact. Should I continue with the existing pack & buy a new one to complete the 7 days or should I start a new pack? ## Abdominal and stomach pain can be normal side effects of the medications included in these packs. As reported by the FDA, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache and diarrhea. As to whether or not you need to add more days, or start over, it would be best to check with your doctor to see what they feel you should do. You may not have gotten enough of a dose to fully eradicate the bacteria. Are you on any other...

I took this about 1 week ago.I didn't finish it. My Doctor just called in another prisciption for this. Is it OK to take it so close together? ## Hello, Kayla! How are you? For resolution of your symptoms, you should follow your doctor's instructions. If you didn't finish the first one, you likely need to start over and finish the full pack. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia and acne. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I took my dinner dose of medrol late. I took it at about 11:00 pm est. I had my lunch dose at around two and fell asleep due to a headache (side effect). It is now 12:50 am est... How long do I have to wait to take my bedtime dose or should I skip it and take my morning...

Yes, unless your doctor has instructed otherwise, you take the first 6 on the first day, then the next 5 on the next day and so on. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, insomnia and acne.

What is the correct dosage of zithromyacin ## What type of infection is being treated? In most cases, Azithromycin is given in one dose of 500mgs the first day, then 250mgs for 6 additional days, but this can vary if the infection is very severe.

Has anyone considered that those who have to open those little packets might also have arthritis? They are the most difficult little packets to open. If one didn't have decent fingernails, you couldn't even do it. ## If you let your pharmacy know, they will change the packaging for you to make it easier for you to use it. ## No kidding! I have a hard time even with cereal boxes. Pill bottle tops, too. Even when you tell them you don't need child-proof caps. ## My 87 year old mother uses Spiriva and swears that her capsules are defective....empty. She pinches them and doesn't feel anything inside. After she has used them, she says they are cracked (not just poked) and that nothing (no powder residue) is left. We can't return them to the pharmacy to check because they ...

YOU TAKE IT FOR ONLY 5 DAYS. YOU START WITH TWO AND THEN TAKE THE REST ## ok ## nothing ## Were you possibly referring to a Z-Pak? It's an antibiotic that is available in a 5 day dosing pack, which contains the active ingredient Azithromycin. Since it is an antibiotic, it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. However, I am not aware of anything at this time that's called a V-Pack, nor have I found any record of there ever being one. There are more Z-Pak details available here for anyone needing more information.

My boxer ate a z-pack pill. He is 85 pounds. What do I do? ## Azithromycin is used to treat canines, as well as people, so there is most likely nothing to worry about, but it would be best to check with your veterinarian. He may experience some side effects from it, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, drowsiness and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My Jack Russell ate my husband's Azithromycin 250 mg pill. Will she be alright? ## Hi Patricia. Sorry to hear about what happened. Judging from Verwon's previous response, I'm under the shared impression that your dog should be alright. However, it never hurts to contact a veterinarian just to acquire some sense of closure on the topic. Even though Azithromycin is reportedly approved for veterinar...

My question is I have been on sprintec 9 months and my question is Im going to get married and on that week i finsihsh the white pills so my worry is one i start the blue pilss is there a chance i can get pregnet, i dont miss pilss so am curiosu about that. ## No, as long as you haven't missed any pills, you are still protected from pregnancy for the entire month. You should check with your doctor, before doing this, but it's usually safe for most women to just continue the active pills and skip their periods at a time it would be inconvenient to have it, such as right after you get married. To do so, you would just skip the inactive week and move right on to a new pack of pills. Are there any other questions? ## okay my question is not skipping my period cause two days before t...

Think it might be an inhalor or associated with it. ## I have a head cold that started 27 Dec 16, spitting phlegm and a runny nose. Having temporary breathing problems and congestion in the lungs. Body temperature 96.3. ## I received a steroid shot on thursday evening for acute bronchitis. She prescribed me a zpack just in case. I'm still not feeling great. How long should I wait before I can start the zpack, if I feel no changes that is? Today is Saturday. ## This is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of bacterial infections. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. Theresa, has there been any change, or did you try the antibiotic? ## I took 3 pills of Z-pack 10 days ago for an ear...

Has any else noticed the extremely difficult new packaging for Esipram? I advise anyone especially elderly patients to ask their doctors to switch off Esipram until the manufacturers come to their senses. ## It's a great way to ensure anxious people who bite their fingernails stay on this drug! The genius who came up with this ought to be fired! ## I agree, the packaging is an absolute disgrace and yes the designer of this packaging should be sacked. I can not believe that they could go to market with such an impossible to open packaging. No wonder I have to take the drug !!

Does anyone who uses the Foradil aerolizer, who also has arthritis, find it extremely difficult to open the package to get a capsule? ## I spent about 8 minutes trying to peel the six "peel away" seals off my Foradil. I have used the product for over a year, but this last batch seems to have defective adhesive or something,,,I think if you hold the packet in your hand and let it warm up to your body temp it makes it easier, but still a pain. ## I do not have arthritis, but I find the new Foradil packaging to be very aggravating. It can be very tedious and time-consuming to get the capsule out of the package. ## I've lately found it easier to deal with the packaging if I use scissors to cut along the perforated edges of each sleeve of capsules. The only issue then is that i...

in prepping for a colonoscopy, i had to half the large bottle of miralax to mix with liquid. large bottle is 8.3, so i went to half that and realized the large bottle contains 12 oz, not 8.3 as labeled.....why???? they say that the 17oz lid has 14 servings (8.3) but i measured out the 14 servings in the lid, and there is still more than 8.3...so do i prep with 8.3 oz or the whole bottle (which everyone assumes is 8.3!!) ## Hello, Jan! How are you? If they told you to use the whole bottle, then that is what you should do, but please double check with your doctor to be sure. I've not seen anyone else mention this, so it seems very odd. The FDA classifies this as being a laxative and its typical side effects may possibly include stomach pain, bloating, diarrhea and dizziness. Is there ...

I am currently taking Tri Sprintec but currently ran out of refills. I was suppose to start my new pack sunday night but didn't get them until today which is wednesday. Should I start the new pack now or just wait until this sunday coming up to take them? ## You can start them, at any time, but it will take a week of taking the active pills, before they are effective at preventing pregnancy, so in the meantime, you should use a backup method of contraception. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, breakthrough bleeding, mood swings, and PMS-like symptoms. Is there anything else I can help with?

I think I had a shortage in my box this month of fentanyl patches. Usually there are 5 per box. I started to change my patch this evening and I only had two in the package. There should had been 3. This is one of the few times that I didn't count my patches upon opening the box. I have a routine in the evenings when it is time for the change of the patch. So my husband and I spent time trying to construct my procedures for the last couple of changes trying to see if there was a possibility that I dropped one in the floor and it slid under something. Has anyone else had a problem with shortage of patches in your boxes? ## I have been on fentyal pain patches I have constant pain the first month I had the 25mg now second month he put me on 50 mg this time there is a shortage I'm mi...
