a week ago I gave my client her Vimpat with 50% water & 50% cranberry juice. She had several back to back gran mal seizures causing her to be hospitalized. Did the cranberry juice counter act the vimpat? ## Hello, Nene50! How are you? How is she doing? I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between the Vimpat and any form of cranberry. Did the doctors have any idea what caused them? Even the best seizure control medicines don't always keep them 100% prevented, so blaming yourself really isn't reasonable. ## Hello just wondering my brother cant swallow pills he takes vimpat 150mg anyway i was told not to crush anymore so i started cuting it into pieces now the pharmist told me to stop cutting what should i do can it be put into some type of beverage or juices #...

since I can no longer get this medication, I would like to know if there is a subsitute that works. ## Is deconamine available anywhere? If not, is there an effective alternative? I was switched to Allegra D over a year ago for allergies and have had 4 sinus infections since, despite sinus surgery. I've now had sinusitis for over a month and my primary care and allergist aren't sure why. See an ENT tomorrow. Boy, would I like to have some deconamine again. I can't believe a bunch of crank freaks have made it impossible for me to get the Rx I need! Can't those idiots in DC get anything right?! ## I have an allergy form of asthma and deconamine was the only drug that allowed me to be around most perfumes, room fresheners, cigarette smoke, candles, etc, without coughing hea...

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?

My mom had a craniotomy one month ago. She is still in rehab. She experiences nightmare-ish hallucinations though. They give her trepeline in the evenings toghether with her epilepsy medication. Is Trepeline given for depression (depression is common for craniotomy patients). Anti-depressants can cause hallucinations. Will Trepeline be the culprit? ## What does her doctor think is causing them? Some antidepressants can cause them, in some people, but it's really difficult to say whether it's solely the medication, the craniotomy, or perhaps a combination of both.

i have uti and was put on cipro 500 for 7 days. it cleared up pretty quick. however after the med, 3 days later, it came back in full bloom. i have been keeping drinking juice made of 3oz fresh cooked cranberry 3oz without sugar every day even after cipro. now i am on nitrofurantion mono 100 for 2 days. it didn't work and it got worse during the late evenings. should continue with this med or try cipro or other med? really discouraged and have been very painful. please help. thanks. ## You need to return to your doctor. At this point, there may be something more than just a regular UTI going on. How was it diagnosed? ## based on a U.A showing low blood. my doc told me it could be in the kidneys during the 1st treatment. I could stay on cipro for 10 days instead of 7. now he said i c...

Title Hydroco Apap M357. White pill and breaks in half. I am taking this medication for back pain. It causes constipation. What I want to know is how to treat and help eleminate the conspitation problem. ## If you can tolerate it, drink a glass of prune juice, cranberry, pure apple juice, or cran-apple every morning, that's about the best I can tell you to do naturally, if you are really in a bind a dose of milk of magnesia works wonders! ## Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen are the active ingredients in Vicodin and since the Hydrocodone is a narcotic analgesic, constipation is a normal side effect. When I was on narcotics and suffered from problems with constipation from them, I found that taking a daily fiber supplement helped tremendously and it has the added bonus of being something...

I cannot locate Deconamine SR capsules anywhere! Is it still possible to obtain this medication, and if so, where can I find it? It is the only medication that works for my post-nasal drip. ## Unfortunately, the original manufacturer sold the medication off to another company, who then cranked the price out of reach for almost everyone. I suppose they planned on ceasing production of the medicine, and needed a "lack of sales" to justify it. In our area, it went from $12/month to $88/month, which put it out of our reach. (4 of us were taking this medication, so it left us all in the lurch.) NOTHING has worked as well, so I am back to daily sore throats from drainage, my daughter has daily headaches that often go on into migraines. So many people relied on this combination pill th...

My brain zaps started out two years ago when I was taken to the emergency room for a severe migraine and a kidney infection. I was given a shot of Toradol and immediately knew I'd been given too much. Within a week, I started experiencing cranial zaps that escalated in numbers and would hit at any given time with no particular trigger. My doctor dismissed these as not real and put me on 40mg Citalopram. The zaps continued so I went to a neurologist, was diagnosed with slight swelling in my brain and put on 3400mg daily of Gabapentin. The combination of both medications did stop the zaps for a short period of about two months but they came back. So it was back to the doctors for help but all they wanted to do was keep raising my doses of medication which I firmly believe was making m...

I believe I was prescribed these pills for an infected tooth. We'll I never took them and it's been several months now, I just cranked the same tooth. It has now got very swollen and and it hurts BAD. Should I start taken these pills and go get the tooth pulled. ASAP! The tooth is not worth saving. Medication is: Sulfamethoxazole/tmp ds with ip 272 stamped on them, ## Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of infections. Your best idea, however, is to consult with your dentist first, at least call them and explain the situation. Some want antibiotics to be used for a few days, before pulling an infected tooth, but some don't see it as necessary. Side effects to this medication may include: nausea, drowsiness, skin rash and dia...

I have an extremely painful oral Neuropathy of 3 cranial nerves for three years. I have had to travel out of state to see Specialists in both Oral Facial Pain and Neurology. There is no cure for this problem. Have tried acupuncture and Homeopathy without any improvement. The only thing that can be done is efforts at reducing the neurologic pain, the pain cannot be stopped. I take an antiseizure med Gabapentin (Neurontin) and also brand Valium 5 mg. every 12 hours. While I have health insurance, I have been paying outrageous Copays for Brand Valium. So at my request, the physician wrote for the Generic Diazepam. The pharmacy issued me TEVA, 5 mg. generic valium (Diazepam). Within 48 hours, or before, of switching to generic valium, the Nerve Pain had increased to unbearable levels and be...

Is narco stronger than methadone ## Hi crank, Did you mean Norco perhaps? Based on my research, patients using Methadone have reported it as being much stronger than Hydrocodone, which is combined with Acetaminophen in Norco. For example, some state that (10 mg) of Methadone give a similar effect as a (30 mg) or (40 mg) Hydrocodone. The problem with Methadone is the withdrawal process, it can be much more painful than any other withdrawal process. This is not going to be the case with every patient, since everyone reacts to medication differently. Your doctor should able to provide the appropriate pain medication based on your medical history and current symptoms. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Norco Details You can learn more about this drug on the page for Methadon...
