Now after 2days i still having the pain from the gum even i took this medicine. is there anything wrong? i remember 2years back i went for a tooth extraction i was given mouth wash and medication for only 2days but it was perfect. ## Have you consulted the dentist that did the extraction?

For instance what type of tooth it was and if there were any complications. It can also take awhile for an extraction site to heal, especially if it was a front ...

Is it safe to take 100mg of Pristiq and 10mg of Buspar and 250mg of Seroquel together? I didn't know how much serotonin all those combined would be or if those 3 meds are ok to take together. Thanks! ## Hello, Beka! How are you? Have they all been prescribed for you? Two that can raise your serotonin levels are the Pristiq and the Buspar. It isn't that they can't be taken together, but that your doctor should carefully adjust the dosage and they should be monitoring your regularly in case any problems develop.

I have started having pain & am sure it is a UTI. I have these Dicloxacill 250mg & was wondering if this will cure my problem. ## Self-diagnosing is never a good idea, especially with a urinary infection, first of all their are antibiotics targeted to treat it much faster and while it could very well be exactly what you suspect, there is always the chance that it isn't, it could be a vaginal infection, bowel, kidney or one of a number of other things, so your best bet would be to see your doctor and follow their advice after diagnosis. My sister frequently had urinary infections requiring treatment, then the last time, she was absolutely certain from the symptoms that it was another one, but her fiance took her to the emergency room anyway, turns out she had no infection at ...

I have had chronic UTI's my whole life but ran into real problems since 1998 after cystocele/rectocele repair. I had a suprapubic catheter for a few days. I got a nosocomial infection in hospital.

80 lb dog = how much amoxicillin? ## I have 250mg Amoxicillin capsules, but my dog only needs 60mg. How would I handle this? Rocky weighs 6 1/2 lbs. I believe I calculated the dose correctly. ## Can the Amoxicillin 400 mg (bmp 196) green tablets be crushed and mixed with food to give to my dog? ## How much amoxicillin tr k clv 500/125 is safe for an 8lb dog? She has skin irritation after her cycle. ## Hello, According to the NIH "The recommended dose of amoxicillin in dogs and cats is 5-10mg/pound" so a dog who is 80 lbs should have 400-800 mg.

Best wishes and happy holidays.

My son takes 1/2 a tablet every 6 hours how much tylenol is he actually getting? ## If his tablets are 5/500's then a 1/2 tab is 250 of Tylenol and 2.5 of codeine. ## The active narcotic in this is Hydrocodone, so he'd be getting approximately 2.5mgs of it and approximately 250mgs of the Acetaminophen/Tylenol. And the reason I say approximately, is because when you cut, or break a pill, it is very hard to be precise, so the dosage could be a milligram, or two, one way or the other. Are there any other questions or comments?

I did pull up a basic link (which you can view below) that has plenty of information regarding the use of antibiotics for sinusitis; including which one's work best, how long they are used, possible side effects, etc: For future reference though, please post as much information as you can about the pill or medication you're wanting to learn more about, so others can be of more help without being left guessing. I know this post is a few months old, but I hope you've recovered 100% by now from that bad sinus infection!

I bought some pills for malaria in a pharmacy livingston guatemala. I was surprised at how cheap they are, but got them anyways. Now i am doing research on them and i cant really find much on them. They are sealed in a regular pill leaf, they are marked paludol, they say disosfato de cloroquina 250mg there is a small logo called bonin on them, an upside down triangle with a hand holding a bottle and bonin written ontop. I am hoping these are good for malaria in central america, and theres been a warning about phony pills for malaria that are ineffective and are really bad for your heart. Please help?!

Following an ECG, my psychiatrist has reduced my trazodone ( which I have been taking for many years for depression and anxiety ) I have gone from 300mg/day to 250mg/day, then after a week from 250mg/day to 200mg/day. That is as much as I have to reduce it. I am one week in and my mood has dropped low and my anxiety and binge eating is worse. Is this possible? ## Yes, according to NIH reports, it is normal to experience some withdrawal effects, they could also include nausea, fever, chills, and rebound depression. However, things should improve, after a week, or so, once your body adjusts to the new dosage. How are you doing now? Has there been any change? ## No, no change as yet, I am still feeling overwhelmed and anxious.

I am searching for a dentist, however in the meantime I addled my doctor to prescribe penicillin for a very painful broken tooth. The dentist had previously prescribed me 500mg worth 1000 as the initial dose. My doctor prescribed 250mg and after 3 days it is not working. My question is, can I double up the 250mg to make 500mg? working.My quotation is can I double up the 250mg to make a 500mg? My doctor doesn't usually prescribe penicillin therefore ## An antibiotic will only help if the pain is due to an infection and, in this case, that may not be what's causing it. It could just be due to the broken tooth being sensitive and that isn't going to resolve, regardless of how much antibiotic you take, until you see a dentist to have the tooth fixed. Is it aching constantly, or ...

However I haven't been able to locate any matches on my end. The closest relevant pill imprint has a marking of L374 and this is also a white oblong pill - Containing a combination of Acetaminophen 250mg + Aspirin 250mg + Caffeine 65mg. If it's of any help, the manufacturer who makes these "L xxx" pills is Perrigo Company. You could try contacting them directly for more specific details as to what your pill might be.

I have BiPolar as well as epilepsy. I been using Lamictin (250Mg) since 2003. I have change to Epitec (250Mg)a month ago. First thing I want to tell people, go and let a medical practioner check your lamictin level. It should be between 4 and 12. So you can know how much to use. I also used Epanuitin (300Mg) before Lamictin. It gave me bumps in my fore arms thats why I change to Lamictin. Lamictin did not give me headaches but I got disorientated from time to time. Lamictin also are very influeinced by alcohol while it seems epitec are more tollerant. However I prefer Lamictin, the side effects are more acceptable. Anger cost at the end more. Losing friends and family. I do not drink alcohol, but some one that does will have more problems with Lamictin than Epictec. Lastly. If you feel dro
