I bought at Costco Myrtle Beach Aspirin 81mg... I would like to know if they are like Baby aspirin. Thank you for answering me. ## Regular Aspirin differs from Baby Aspirin, in that Baby Aspirin is about 25% of the standard 325mg dose. Baby Aspirin generally comes in the 81mg dose with artificial flavoring (and may be in a chewable form). The low 81mg dose can also be purchased for the adult (regular) Aspirin pills as well; but isn't a chewable. It is really a matter of preference when it comes to deciding between the two. I hope this information helps!

Try COSTCO (no memb reqd for phar), or get an AAA membshp AAA membership cost covers the difference on ONE fill for me! Ck AAA website to see which pharmacies are in program. They discount if from the pharm;s cost.

COSTCO BUYERS beware. It is cheaper because of where they purchase the generic suboxone from. It is being manufactured in a third world country. Pharm co. covers this, there is a real quality difference. Ask your pharmacist where the medication is manufactured. That's the reason for low cost, low quality. ## Hello, Subhuman! How are you? Regardless of where it is manufactured, if it is approved to be available in the U.S. by FDA, then it must be the same quality and efficacy guides as all other generics. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## With all do respect you're very wrong. The difference in generic me...

This is the first time Costco mail order pharmacy has sent me these pills, the previous ones I have been taking for five years were also a generic but I do not remember their color but think they were two colors, one color was white and I believe the other was green. Ever since I started taking the blue pills, my FBSS pains in my legs have greatly increased. I took the fluoxetine primarily for relief from these pains, along with 150 mg Lyrica, 2mg clonoxepam, 50mg prestiq, 25mg amitriptyline, and 50mg lamotrigine daily. Is it possible that these new blue pills, which I understand are made in India by Alembic, are sufficiently different than the previous generic Fluoxetine to cause this increase in pain. Please help, the pain has been terrible since making this change. Thank you. ## The ...

Costco switched generics on me. I have been taking MYLAN Buprpion 300XL for years. They switched to ACTAVIS and I feel gross and have a metallic taste in my mouth. Costco is no help and I have called around and haven't found a pharmacy that carries MYLAN. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated :)

I purchase my Drixoral at Costco and have ebeen told they are no longer able to get it, because it is be reformulated, is this correct ## I usually get mine at Walmart. They cannot get it, either. No explanation. I hope they did not find something dangerous with it. ## Maybe you can try to find a small Mom n' Pop pharmacy that still compounds formulas. The active ingredients in this med are Dexbrompheniramine and Pseudoephedrine. If you go to one of those pharmacies and tell them the ingredients they might be able to formulate it for you. ## The manufacturer did the same thing about 2 years ago and there was talk they were going to reformulate it then but they did not. There isn't another drug with the same ingredients. Not sure why, but every time I can't get it, I get very...

I've been buying tussigon from costco. ## Tussigon contains hydrocodone (dihydrocodeinone) bitartrate, a semi-synthetic centrally-acting narcotic antitussive. Homatropine methylbromide is included in a sub-therapeutic amount to discourage deliberate overdosage. All of the big chain pharmacies should have access to this medication (on location or through mail order) if you present them with a valid script. Are you having any success or difficulties getting it filled through Costco?

I was just told by a costco pharm. that d-amphetamine salt com xr has been discontinued ## It hasn't been discontinued, but there is a current supply shortage, reported to the FDA by all manufacturers. As supplies improve, they are shipping it to various pharmacies on an allocated basis. In the meantime, the only thing I can suggest is checking with various pharmacies to see which one has it in stock, or talking to your doctor about using an alternative medication in the meantime. Are there any other questions or comments? ## Dextrose-amphetamine salt is not the only ingredient, so even if it was cancelled, which is is not, it wouldn't discontinue Adderall.

I have been taking Interpharm 10-325 imprint 1:IP from Costco. I recently had them refilled there & recd. Aurobindo 10-325 Mg ! States on the bottle that it is a sub for Norco 10-325 Mg Tab Alle. What is the differance between them ? Wondering if most or all of our drugs are manufactured from other countries such as India or Pakistan. Are these safe to take? The pills from Aurobindo have an imprint of U03. I have Rheumatoid also Osteo Arthiritis & am very concerned about switching as the Norco & Interpharm brand worked well for me ! Also I have read many people that started taking the Aurobindo brand are experiancing unfavorable results regarding pain & many other concerns ! Thank you for caring ! ?? ## Regardless of where a medication is manufactured, it must meet the s...

I got a prescription for Librax from my Dr. and took it to Costco and they wanted 400.00 for I think 60 pills. That is scamming people. I don't have drug coverage and am a senior and I found this drug back in 1957 and its the only thing that worked to stop my IBS and now I am told that Oceanside who use to make it has closed down and its like its on a Black Market. Virtus was another name on one of my prescriptions that made Librax. What are we suppose to do when this drug actually works? I can't afford 400.00, so, guess I will just use my Imodium or the prescription one Lomotil.

He sent prescription to Costco where I have my pharmacy drugs dispensed from, cholesterol, blood pressure etc. It cost 196 dollars for 8 blue tablets Are their generic Viagra little cheaper and can I ask my doctor for paper prescription or use expired one to take someplace else for generic or cheaper viagra. Thanks ## Hello, Mike! How are you? Yes, there are generics of Viagra that are cheaper. You can ask your doctor for a new prescription to take a different pharmacy. This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, runny nose and priapism. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen 10-325 My Pharmacy Costco just slipped me 120 of these Oval Pills Marked U03. They are pure garbage. Headache within 20 minutes of taking and No Pain relief. My Losartan Potassium was switched to this company also 2 months ago, and I've had stomach problems since. Told Costco NEVER to dispense anything from this company. These Pills not only don't work, they give you a HEADACHE, Hydrocodone is suppose to take away pain not give you pain. ## The tablets with the U 03 marking contain 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen (NDC 13107-0021). The FDA does warn that a headache can be a typical side effect of this medication, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, and constipation. It also carries the risk of being habit forming. Inacti...

Trying to obtain this product in our local pharmacies. Just two weeks ago I tried buying it at COSTCO. The National Drug Code is 0603-1330-58. ## Hi Fernando, Have you already checked with any other pharmacies outside of Costco regarding its availability? I see that the National Drug Code comes up on MedsChat's NDC database as a product of Qualites Pharmaceuticals. So one idea may be to contact the manufacturer directly to see which pharmacies they distribute this to... You could also ask your pharmacy to order it? Another option is to visit a compounding pharmacy with your prescription in hand and see if they can make a custom formulation for you. If it's of any help, the two active ingredients are: Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide + Guaifenesin. And the medication itself reported...

Good Morning, Is the 255 yellow pill still available for purchase at retail pharmacies? I used to buy it at Costco and have not seen it there lately. thank you ## Hi Maggie, Based on my research, the round yellow tablet marked 255 is identified as OTC Chlorpheniramine Maleate (4mg); which is used to treat allergy and cold symptoms. If you believe Costco may have stopped carrying it for one reason or another, I would suggest contacting their pharmacy department to see if that's really the case, or if they simply forgot to restock it. Have you checked with any other pharmacies in your area as well?

it is round,white and is blank on one side and 44 over 183 on the others side..i mean it looks like 54/543 ## I think it is Costco's Kirkland Signature brand equivalent to Excedrin. ## This is to edit my previous post, I should have said ASPIRN, not Excedrin. Sorry. ## Frank, you're right - I checked around for the pill IDs and found the following: 44 183 is in fact Aspirin, I think 325 mg. 54 543 is actually Roxicet - which contains the same active ingredients as Percocet. Be careful with this one. It is a strong narcotic pain reliever which contains Acetaminophen + Oxycodone. It is easy to overdose on this one. ## Yes, 44 183 is 325mg Aspirin. This is manufactured by LNK International who only make over the counter pills that are sold by various stores as their store brands an...

Most unaffiliated pharmacies will always be cheaper in price for people without insurance. Walmart/Target/Walgreens/Costco/CVS etc are big chains and will not help ppl without insurance. Stay away from those phony Medical cards claiming to save on RX's prices, they do no good for you. They basically tell the pharmacy to charge you more than cost, and split the difference with the pharmacy, hence you pay more then necessary. On average, you can get 180 QNTY 30MG Oxy from independent pharmacies for around 100$. Do not pay those big chains 250-900$, they are ripping you off if you do go there to fill your prescription. ## Actually, the opposite of what you've said is true, in many cases. The large chains often buy in bulk, which lowers their price and thus, lowers the price for uni...

I have been taking alprazolam 0.5 in the a.m. for several years made by Mylan. It has bern discontinued by the manufacturer. Costco is now carrying Greenstone. Will I notice a difference in the manufacturer? I suffer from PTSD since my son was killed. I take regular alprazolam 0.5 at bedtime by Dava... seems to be fine. My dr. tells me not to change manufacturer on generics. Is greenstone a reputable company? ## That is a very strange thing your Doctor told you about not changing Generic brands, That is like saying only drink Royal Crown Cola, not Pepsi or Coke. A pharmacy will change brands if their supplier finds a better price. Just yesterday I picked up Mylan 1 mg Xanax at Rite Aid. If your Doctor is truly worried for you and just wants to prescribe the name brand version of Xanax t...
