I purchased artri help for pain of sciatic nerve. Would this help the pain? I got it at the swat meet in San Fernando ## Are you possibly referring to "arthri d-3"? This arthritis supplement reportedly contains the following list of ingredients (which in my opinion seems like it would be beneficial for reducing inflammation/pain): Vitamin C, D, Magnesium, NAG (N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine), Chondroitin Sulfate, Rice Flour, Tumeric Extract, Boswellia Serrata, Ashwaganda, Yucca (root), Bromelain, Evening Primrose oil, Perna Canaliculus (Green Lipped Mussel), Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Hyaluronate) I haven't researched each individual ingredient, but I know from my own experience that Turmeric, Bromelain, and Yucca, just in and of themselves are excellent treatment options. Although dep...

Ok, so I just got married and started the pill right before I got married. The first month everything was normal and I started my period like clockwork the first day of the white pill. Month number 2 rolls around, I am on my 3rd day of white pills and no period. Should I be concerned. Is pregnancy possible. As far as I know I have not missed any blue pills and done very well in taking them. ## If you are worried, it never hurts to consult your doctor, just in case. However, menstrual irregularities are normal, when you are new to taking hormonal contraceptives, because your body does have to adjust to the changes in hormones and you may experience irregular bleeding, or missed periods for the first 3 months, or so. Are there any other questions or comments? ## I have taken two packs of ...

Is it safe to take 2 10mg hydrocodones every 3 hours? I am 24 and I am scheduled to have a total hip replacement on the 18th. For the past two days I have been taking 2 hydrocodones, 1 gabapentin, and 1 robaxin every 3-4 hours to keep my pain under control so I don't end up in the er like I did on Wednesday. So my question is, is it safe to be taking all of these every 3-4 hours? ## Hello, Kat! How are you doing? I am very sorry that you're in so much pain. If you're taking Norco/Vicodin that also has Acetaminophen in it, then it is dangerous to take that many in a 24 hour period. You can't exceed 3,000mgs of Acetaminophen per day. Taking more than that risks an overdose, which could be fatal. It is really best to not take more than prescribed. You may want to contact yo...

I have been taking 300mgs of gabapentin 100mgs three times a day I suffer with a fast irregular heartbeat and since taking this medication it has been much worse and keeping me awake at night do you think I should continue as I am trying to stop my nightime diazepam 5mgs and treat the nerve pain I have from rotator cuff injury and back spasms from a chronic back condition ## Hello, Rose! How are you? You should have this checked out by your doctor. Gabapentin has been known to cause high blood pressure and tachycardia in some people that take it, as reported by the FDA. If it continues out of control, it could become dangerous. This just might not be the right medication for you to take and you may need to try something else. Has there been any change?

I have been having a rash on the side of my neck for months. It looks like a sunburn with dry skin. I have tried all the anti-fungal type meds with no luck. It does not itch very much and there has been no changes in my diet, meds, laundry soap and so forth. Does anyone have any ideas that might clear this up other then say go to you doctor. ## Hello, Jenifer! How are you? Have you tried a topical allergy ointment? Some allergic outbreaks can look like that, they can also hit certain specific areas, if that spot becomes very sensitive to the allergen, as listed by the NIH. I doubt it's due to an infection, because that would continue to get worse. However, the only way to really get a definitive answer is by seeing your doctor, which I know you don't want to hear. Does anyone el...

I was prescribed Phentermine 15 mg capsules....on the bottle it says Phentermine generic for Phentermine HCL...I have never taken a med of this type & I am kinda scared... Can anyone help me with what it contains and if there are any really bad side effects and is it slow release? I need to lose 30 lbs. ## Hello, Dawn! How are you? Phentermine is the active ingredient, it is used to aid in weight loss. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness and insomnia. And no, it is a regular release medication. Can anyone that's taken it chime in with their experience? ## Dawn, Well, it's been several years since your post, so you prob have it figured out by now. But, i'll write anyway....

My mom is having some pain in her second toe from her toenail getting snagged from inside of her sock, because she drags her right foot from a stroke she is still recovering from 2 years ago. Is it okay to try a little Ketoprofen Lidocaine for her sore toe? ## It would be best not to try anything, without her doctor's approval. Though it is topical, there is still a slight risk of there being interactions, or complications with other medications she may be taking. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including headache, skin redness, irritation, and dryness. What other medications is she taking?

What can I take to counteract it? ## There is a risk that you might be experiencing an allergic reaction, according to NIH warnings, so it would be best to consult your doctor, you may need to switch to a different medication. Other symptoms of an allergic reaction may include body swelling, extreme dizziness, and trouble breathing. Did you experience any other symptoms?

Hi everyone xxx just want you to know I feel your pain. I didn't realise what this drug was until I tried to stop taking it?! I am so hurt and angry!! I was put onto 80mg of Oxycodone a day and OxyContin every four hours for a severely damaged pelvis from pregnancy. This was by a hospital that didn't believe anything was wrong with me!! I also have Fibromyalgia caused by the pelvic trauma and my discs in back are now deteriorating from the position I have to be in to avoid pelvic pain! To cut a long story short I was referred to the top trauma hospital in Uk and given a CAT scan which finally showed damage and I am now waiting for an operation to remove the front part of pelvis. My new surgeon was horrified at the high dose I'd been prescribed and warned me the drug shortens...

I've visited the clinic today and they gave me vari-hydrocortisone cream now i'm not sure if am i using it on the right thing or not because i also have some red thing like an allergy growing on my face and my vagina is itchy and burns when i'm urinating ## Hello, Kholo! How are you? This isn't usually used on the face, because there is a chance it could cause some skin damage that would be permanent and very noticeable on the face. What did they say was causing the vaginal symptoms? ## Hi doc . Can I use vari-hydrocortisone for my yeast infection?

Can anyone one tell me about a doc that's more likely to prescribe adipex to obese and morbidly obese people. I'm 5'3.5" tall and right now I weigh in at 300lbs. I live in Wrens,Ga ## Hi, Shay! How are you? Any doctor you find that prescribes it is also going to want you to couple it with a healthy diet and exercise plan. Learn more Adipex details here. And the best doctor to see to get help will most likely be a weight loss specialist. Have you checked for any in your area? When using a medication like this, which acts as a stimulant, they have to be very careful that your overall health is good, so the medication doesn't put you in extreme danger. It can also cause side effects, such as headache, irritability and anorexia. ## well it meds have put her in extrem dan...
