Can

Can I have a couple beers if I am on doxycycline? ## I spoke with my doctor about this. He said you can drink but make sure you stay out of the sun while on this Anit-Biotic ## I find it hard to believe that any doctor would say that, it is never advisable to drink when you are taking prescription drugs of any type. It is even dangerous with OTC medications. ## You can drink on doxycycline. just follow 1 glass of water for every drink (or 2) to help clean the kidneys

I can't find the green Benadryl Allergy Sinus Headache anywhere. Did the box change? Where can I find it? ## I'm not familiar with the box, so I can't say whether or not it has changed. However, from looking it up, it seems that it contains Acetaminophen, Diphenhydramine and Phenylephrine, so what you'll want to look for is a Benadryl product, or even one from a different company that contains those same ingredients. Learn more Acetaminophen details here. Learn more Diphenhydramine details here. Learn more Pheylephrine details here. Have you tried asking your pharmacist to help you find it?

A little over 2 weeks ago my long term episodic heartburn become more persistent, so I purchased a 14 day regimen of generic Omeprazole. Its effect was dramatic; I had no symptoms for the entire period. When the 14 days were over I stopped per the directions.

my virgina is itching around vulva, i went to the pharmacy and they gave me canex v cream cant i just apply it only around vulva since it is not itching on the inside? ## No, using it that way will not effectively eradicate a yeast infection, if that's what is causing the itching. To do that, it needs to be inserted inside your vagina, just as instructed. Have you consulted your doctor to confirm whether or not you have a yeast infection?

I am looking something for leg crank someone told me about thee pill Quinam 200 or 300 mg ## Hi, Diann! How are you? This medication is only available with a doctor's prescription. Have you consulted a medical professional about your leg cramps, yet? There are several reasons they may be happening and the most common is actually low potassium. That is something that your doctor can check for via blood tests. Do they happen mostly at night?

Am I Able To Take Codeine #3, If I'm Allergic To Penicillin&Amox? And Am I Able To Take Naproxen ? ( Seperatly ) ## Yes. Codiene # 3 is Codeine 30 mg/Acetaminophen 325 mg and is used for pain relief. Naproxen is an nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It is used to reduce inflammation and lower fever. Penicillin and amoxicillin are antibotics and are used to treat infections. Being allergic to Penicillin and amoxicillin has nothing to do with Codiene # 3 and narpoxen. ## Codeine #3 IS NOT 30mg of codeine. That is actually called Tylenol #3 with codeine. Please be careful what you read on here! Codeine comes in 2.5, 5, 7 mg, etc. This reply was shocking to read,v and I hope that wasn't an actual doctor replying. ## I believe the person who said Codeine 3 meant Tylenol...

Can a man use canex crean on his private part when he have some balls their? ## Hello, Don! How are you? I can't find anything that specifically lists what the ingredient is in Canex, there are various things claiming what it is, but nothing verified. However, it is listed as being an antifungal agent that can be used to treat yeast infections and other fungal skin infections, which means that it can be used by men or women, it is not gender specific. However, it will only treat fungal infections, according to the information I found, so you should see your doctor for a proper diagnosis, before using it. If your problem is caused by something else, such as a virus or bacterial infection, then this cream isn't going to help. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## Hi I woul...
