Cap Teva

I know what medication it is,my question is are the capsules supposed to be half empty? ## Hi Denise, When you look up an image of the pill there's no real way to determine what amount is inside, since the coating is not "see-thru" like some of the other capsules on the market. However this is generally not something to be concerned about if you are obtaining your medication from a real licensed pharmacy that requires a prescription; as they do not tamper with the contents. Have you tried comparing it to any of the other capsules you have in the same batch, by shaking or weighing them to see if there's any discrepancies?

how long after exp. date can you use them ## Hi, Lori! How are you? These contain 500mgs of the antibiotic Amoxicillin and you really shouldn't use them, at all, once they are expired. They start to lose potency after the expiration date and that creates the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. Additionally, that risk is greater if these are leftovers from an old prescription and you don't have enough to complete a full course of treatment. Learn more Amoxicillin details here. It is best to see your doctor for a new prescription. Is there anything else I can help with?

I was given the pill from my unkle i have taken atleast six of them so far im taking them for an absets on my upper gum area an so far its been relieving the pain an reducing the swelling ## This tablet contains 500mgs of Cephalexin, it is an antibiotic that's used to treat various types of bacterial infections. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more Cephalexin details here. However, if you don't have enough of them to fully eradicate the infection, you run the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. And if this infection is caused by a dental problem, it is going to keep returning, until you see a dentist to have the problem corrected. Have you consulted your dentist, yet? ## How often would you take them? ## will k...

I'm interested in knowing what the composition of the capsule is, ( derived from animal, plant or lab produced? ## The blue capsule in description is identified as Prazosin hydrochloride 5 mg. Judging by the look of it and other pills produced by this manufacturer (Teva Pharmaceuticals USA), I am almost certain that this specific pill is derived from various animal by-products. The blue dye alone is a red-alert in my book. Additionally, gelatin typically constitutes the shells of most pharmaceutical capsules, so I'm further swayed to believe that this holds true for Teva's products as well. There doesn't seem to be specific details on whether this is so or not; just compelling evidence that it is most-likely an animal by-product. I hope my opinion helps! ## very interest...

I was given about 6 of them by a friend for an absess on my arm. Is it safe to take them for an absess? Will it help heal it; possibly make it go away without having to go get it lanced and squeezed at the hospital. ## The red capsule you're describing is identified as Cephalexin 500 mg; an antibiotic used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. Unfortunately there's no real way of knowing how well you'll end up responding to this drug, since it's common for antibiotics to effect each person differently (with regards to side effects, duration of treatment, and overall efficacy). This is why it's so important to use a legitimate prescription from your doctor, because they can offer you more appropriate advice after an in-person diagnoses/evaluation. For anyon...

My in-law gave me this red capsule with TEVA and 3147 on it. Is it safe for me to take? Will it help my toothache? ## Hi Fay, The pill which you are describing is Cephalexin Monohydrate (500 mg); an antibiotic used to treat various types of infections (including toothaches). Learn More: Cephalexin Details I'd say it's safe to take as long as you're able to take a full prescribed amount of it in order to kill the infection. If you're only taking 1 pill, you may want to take some additional precautions to get rid of the infection indefinitely. One cheap but effective option is clove essential oil. It's an oil worth keeping in your medicine cabinet for future use and usually runs about $10-15 for a bottle that lasts for ages. I hope this helps!

My renewed Rx shows "Tevau". Is Tevau a place, a company name. How do I find out where the drug is MANUFACTURED?? The diltiazem capsule looks entirely different from the generic I have been taking. ## Hi Ginger, I think you may be referring to Teva Pharmaceuticals (possibly a misspelling of Teva). They are a drug company and they do manufacturer Diltiazem: tapi.com/Public/Product-List/Pages/Diltiazem_hcl.aspx I would consider contacting them directly if you have any concerns about their product, but hopefully this helps to answer your question about who the manufacturer is. ## Tevau is the way pharmacies spell it on their bottles, not Teva! My mother's HCTZ bottle has Tevau. ## I was using the manufacture Act and now they switched me to Tevau and I have been dizzy for 2 days

Hello, I was recently diagnosed with ADHD my doc prescribe me Ritalin the pharmacy gave me the genetic brand Methylphenidate 20mg ER (LA) caps Mfc Actavis.
