I just moved to Fredericksburg/DC Metro area of Virginia from Florida. I have severe chronic spinal pain from bulging lumbar discs, bone spurs, spinal stenosis and scoliosis (in mid/upper spine). My doctor that was treating me in FL had me on 60mg MS Contin 2xday and 10mg Percocet 4xday. Which makes it able for me to function with a lowered amount of pain. I went through 3 other doctors over the years that prescribed too little or too much before I found him. I would like to find a doctor/pain clinic that will prescribe me the same or similar in/around the Fredericksburg/DC Metro area of Virginia as opposed to having to drive back to my Florida doctor every month. Does anyone know of any in these areas?

Can Hydrocodone and Modafinil be taken together? ## Hi Fred, Based on my research there are no drug interactions found between Hydrocodone and Modafinil. This does not necessarily mean no interactions exist, but my sources state that every effort has been made to ensure that the information provided is accurate. In conclusion, these two medications are regarded as being safe to take together and shouldn't present any problems outside of the normal side effects associated with each medication. I hope this helps to answer your question! ## What about Oxycodone (Roxycodone--I should say, without Tylenol) and Modafinil combined? I am taking them both for three years and haven't had a problem. Does anyone have a comment about this. The Roxy is a lot stronger than the Hydrocodone for ...

M375 on one side oblong split on the other ## Hello, Freda! How are you? Did you mean M 357? If so, this tablet was manufactured by Mallinckrodt Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 5mgs of Hydrocodone and 500mgs of Acetaminophen, it is a dosage that is no longer available, since the maximum dose of Acetaminophen in them now has been lowered to no more than 325mgs. The FDA classifies this medication as being 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.

CAN FAMICICOVIR AND DIFLUCAN BE TAKEN AT THE SAME TIME ## Hello, Fred! How are you? I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between these two medications, but it's always best to double check such information to be sure. Famciclovir is listed by the FDA as being most commonly used to prevent herpes outbreaks. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headaches and mild fever. Diflucan is an antifungal medication and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, stomach pain, headache and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

In order to keep BP balanced, is it possible to take 2.5/10 capsules every other day? Thanks very much, Fred ## Hello, Fred! How are you? In order for it to work as intended, you should follow your doctor's prescribing instructions. Thus, if they've told you to take it daily, that is what you should do. If you're experiencing the symptoms of low blood pressure some days, you should inform your doctor, as you may need a dosage adjustment or to switch to a different medication. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dehydration and hypotension. Are you experiencing adverse symptoms? ## Thanks, Verwon, Not symptoms really, but this morning the reading was 99/44 and just now, after a bit of gardening, 103/50. ...

I have tussionex ext rel sus cell thats 6 years old. is it ok to take ? ## Hello, Fred! How are you? No, liquids have very short life spans, they tend to degrade very fast. Many even go rancid and could make you sick, so a 6 year old one isn't safe to take. If you need this medication, you should see your doctor for a new prescription. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I took 6-year-old Tussionex Pennkinetic Susp and it worked the same as when it was new.

Just wanted to know can i use triamcinolone acetonide cream on flea bites on my neck. ## Hello, Freddie! How are you? Wow! How many times did they bite you? I've always hated fleas, because they can bite multiple times and they are so hard to get rid of, totally annoying pests. Years ago, I had a cat that became anemic due to flea bites, even though I'd treated him with flea preventatives, they didn't work, after a nice vet bill, I discovered that I needed to use a more potent one on him, and they had me use one for small dogs. As to the cream, it may help with the itching, if your doctor approves of your using it, however, according to the FDA, it may also cause itching as a side effect, along with skin dryness, cracking, burning and rash.

Has anyone had mallinckodt hydrocodone that doesn't have any markings? ## Hello, Freddy! How are you? There are no legal U.S. prescription tablets that don't have markings on them. Imprints are required by law to enable their identification, in case of emergency. I can also tell you that Mallinckrodt doesn't make any medications without markings on them, they use their logo on everything they manufacture. That said, if it doesn't have a marking, it is most likely just some type of over the counter product. The FDA lists Hydrocodone as being 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? ## I have a script of norco 5-325...

Is this capsule vitamin D3? It has an imprint on it of "NO20". It's from Fred's pharmacy in Gaston, SC. I filled my prescription but I can't find anything about it on the internet. ## It has been a while and I was just about to ask the same question. I filled my d3 50,000IU capsules and got the same pill. It must be some new form rather than the green gel capsules. ## I'd say if you got it filled at a licensed pharmacy (which seems to be the case) then it's more than likely to be what the label says it is, as there's a level of established trust that exists between patients and pharmacies that has to be actively maintained on their part. While I agree that mistakes do happen from time to time, seeing that post #1 also filled a prescription for the same ty...
