Call Me

I received a phone call today from my pharmacy. The Morphine Sulfer I take was recalled back in Aug. Now I am to take my medicine in tomorrow and they will give me fresh. Sounds odd to me. What about all of the medicine I have been taking? Has anyone else had experience with this? What should I do? Thanks, Cindy. ## There was a recall for 30mgs and 60mgs Morphine Sulfate tablets manufactured by the Ethex Corporation back in June, this is due to the danger of overdosing with the tablets. They could release too much medication at once, which could be fatal. If you are wondering why the recall was so long ago and why you are just now hearing about it, it is more than likely because your pharmacy purchased their Morphine stock quite awhile ago. When they order their medications, they usuall...

my dr gave me metoprolol er (time release) today. 25mg to help lower my heart rate and blood pressure. I took it and about 3 hrs later stared feeling so strange. my face got real hot and it feels like there pressure in my head. I read that the generic brand could be different than the name brand toprol xl and that it could spike blood pressure. I called the pharmacy and he assured me it was the same thing and that it only lowers BP. did anyone else experience this when first starting metoprolol er? also it hasn't seemed to lower my heart rate either. btw I also just started taking Zoloft as well. any help or advice would be appreciated. thanks. ## It actually may have been caused by taking them together, since the Sertraline in the Zoloft can increase the effect of the Metoprolol, i...

Is there such a drug called vyvan and if so could you please tell me what it is prescribed for. is this a drug that can be easily bought on the streets or must someone go to a doctor to get this medication. I currently have a cousin who is taking this medication but I can't seem to find much about it on the internet. Thank you for your help. ## Its probably vyvanse. Its an ADHD medication. I dont know if its sold on the street. ## I think you may be talking about Vyvanse, which is an amphetamine used to treat ADHD, similar to adderall. Not sure, just throwing this out there. May be the reason you're not finding anything on the internet about it too? Hope this helps. ## I have to agree with Sandra, that is the most likely choice. Here's a link to more Vyvanse details. Along w...

Light blue tablet with nothing written on either side. ## What is FIRAC from Mexico ## Ifa-fonal I think is a generic name for diazepam from mexico. They make 2mg white 4 quaternary split bars in un-marked alprazolam and also 10mg diazepam. Looks like the makers name is Ifa Celtics. It’s on both the xanax bars box and dizaepam box. ## This is wrong. It is for pain brought on by colitis.

Is this a narcotic for pain? Is it also called Demerol? ## How come I can't find any information at this website about Meperidine AKA Demoral ## I'm in search for a Dr to prescribe femoral, or dilladid. Here in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Can you help me with that? ## Demerol, which is also known as Meperidine, is a mild narcotic analgesic that is to treat moderate to severe pain. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Stacey, what search terms are you using? I'll be happy to help, if can. Prentice, there is no way to be sure that any doctor will prescribe any given medication. The best advice I can give is to see a new doctor, make sure they get a full copy of your mos...

pain from surgery sucks. I wouldnt take more than ur dose for each day its not worth withdrawing when u run out a few days before u go back to clinic plus if u get a bottle recall they will take ur bottles! They wont want to hear about ur pain or excuses in their mind! U should talk to ur counsler and up ur dose. Methadone is super addictive and very easy to take more than ur daily dose. Hope things work out good luck ## I got called in for a bottle count on a Saturday and I was told that never happens. Am I in trouble or what?

Has anyone gotten a call from a guy (Officer John Montgomery), says he is with fda in DC regarding recent investigation on some pharmacy? I've gotten a call before by some guys who were scamming people and I am suspicious. ## Yes, I got the same call from a detective John Montgomery from the FDA threating to take action against me. When I called the number I could not get through to anyone so I looked up the number and all this is a scam. Tell JM to take a walk!

its suppose to up your oxgen level for cancer patients,and also help lose weight.I would like to know were to find it. ## Oxy-E is an over the counter supplement product that is claimed to help with many things, but since it is just a supplement, this it not actually proven. We've had other people ask about it and though I have tried to research it, they are not even clear as to what their ingredients are. As to where it can be found, I am sorry, but we have no way of knowing what store has anything in stock, at any given time. Are there any comments or questions? ## Where can I purchase tea tree oil?

I've been taking Meloxicam for about three days now, for wrist pain. I had an MRI and it showed two small cysts in my wrist. The pain is still there, and it's nearly unbearable since I work in production. Should I ask my Dr. For something else, or continue to take it and hope for the best? I've read about melocxicam and it seems to work for people with arthritis, but I have cysts. Did my Dr. Make the right call? ## Hello, Casey! How are you feeling? I'm very sorry that you're in pain. Do you know what type of cysts they are? Is this the only thing your doctor prescribe? Usually, an antibiotic and/or a steroid are used for cysts, to try to reduce their size and get them to go away. Meloxicam is listed by the FDA as an NSAID, it is used to treat pain, fever and swellin...

Doctor going to try this for me.I have diabetic neurophopy. ## Hello, Marie! How are you? Was it possibly Norco that your doctor mentioned? It is a narcotic analgesic that contains a combination of Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone, so there is a risk of it being habit forming and it can cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Learn more Norco details here. ## Is it safe to take hydrocodone while also taking Mobic? ## Brenda, There is no listed contraindications between these two substances but as ALWAYS YOU SHOULD CONFIRM THIS WITH YOUR PRESCRIBER since they are best equipped to handle this inquiry. I hope that answers your question adequately .Regards, Kenie.

During the late 30's thru the 50's Drug stores sold a medication for pain that was a Red liquid called Red Aspirin. My hometown Roanoke Rapids, NC is the only place I have ever seen this medicine. I have asked other Druggist about this and they had never heard of Red Aspirin. Any ideas? This really worked for headaches. ## You might be having difficulty finding out about it, because sometimes these types of medications are purely regional. Even if it wasn't something prescribed by a doctor, but just something available in the pharmacy over the counter, such patent medications may have been specially ordered and designed by a local doctor or druggist. Back then, there weren't as many regulations and it was quite commonly done. However, when regulations started being enact...
