How Pills Are Made

I went to a different pharmacy because it was closer to my house. I asked for the mallinckrodt brand and she said she had it. When I got home I looked and it was qualitest. Now these pills make my heart flutter and skip a beat. My doctor won't give me another prescription until another month. I have severe pain so l have to take the qualitest brand hydrocodone 10-325. Mallinckrodt brand is the only one I can take. What should I do to get help with this problem? ## Essie, Sadly in this day and age drug abusers use the predicament your facing as an attempt to procure additional controled dangerous substances for untoward purposes. There's really very little recourse available to you. I would highly recommend you find an alternative doctor who respects you as a patient. Wishing you...

of 10-11-12 roxy 30s r no good the fda has cut them thay will make you have with drows every day if you take them ## I'm sorry, but I believe you have some misinformation here. The FDA has done nothing to the existing Roxicodone, or its generics on the market in any dosage. They are still the same as they have always been. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Purdue has changed the Oxycontin formulation, but even it doesn't contain anything that will make a person go into withdrawals. Where did you get such information? ## thats what you think look it up the fda has pulled all opiods in february 2012 said they made them to big or to strong and replaced them in all drugstore's to me i think they r like methodone iv bin takeing them for 4 year's. now ther weak. ## No, bandit...

A few years ago I found a diet pill called Qick Loweight. It was made from algae and seaweed and other things from the sea. There was no caffeine of any kind but it worked great. I lost 3 pant sizes in 2 weeks. If anyone knows where I can find this please let me know.

I have been taking diet pill Phentermine I went to Dr today and I told her they just are not working like they did she uped my dose and also perscribed me 50 mlg levothyroxine I've never had blood work done to see if I have problems w / my thyroid I'm seeing this Dr for wieght loss I've already lost 55 lbs in the last 4 months I want to trust my Dr but I'm really scared what will taking this medicine do if I don't have a thyroid problem should I be worried? ## It clearly states that Thyroid Medicine should not be used with any diet supplement to treat weight loss! I would find another Dr. and definetely not take it! ## Doctors are allowed to prescribe medications for off-label uses, according to their own experience on what it has done for other people. While it is n...

my wifes in pain due to siotic nerve and herniated disc. shes has a bad reaction to opiates, like instant withdrawl, tramidol, not working,cabapentin , not working. 2ml suboxone, works on pain, bad reaction. question is does the whatever ingredient in cabapentin and suboxone clash? ## She may be allergic to opiates period, I am not a doctor, but I can tell you what my doctor gave me that made me able to tolerate opiates..There was a medication way back in the 1960's until the usless vicodin became popular..It was called synalgos DC and it consisted of dihydrocodeine (Sythetic codeine) aspirin, and promethazine to take away the allergic reaction of the opiate..It's not very popular anymore because of vicodin, but you can get it by having it compounded (Walgreens compounds medicat...

These are the pills that I have that I can't seem to identify. 1) First one is made by Pharmascience in Canada. It is bright orange, round, scored on one side, marked PMS on the upper scored portion and 10 on the lower half. The other side is blank, no score or markings. 2) Second one is also a Pharmascience pill. It's round, paler orange, and it has their logo on one side, a P with a circle behind it. The other side is scored and has an L on the upper portion and a 5 on the lower portion. 3) Third one is an oblong "capsule" shaped pill, bright orange color, imprinted on one side is N 500, the N and 5 are more prominent and the two 0's are engraved lighter. There is a score going through the imprint, above and below the 5. The back is plain, no markings. 4) Fourth on...

I have RSD in both legs due to several back surgeries. I was diagnosed in 1993 and have lived in pain for many years. My question is, I was doing pretty good with hydrocodone, Tylenol (7.5/3.25) ev 4 hrs. Even missing a dose every now and then, my RSD was mostly under control. I was changed to pill form (10/3.25) ev 6 hrs and ever since then (3 days ago), I have been in severe pain, in my legs and now under my feet. What made the difference? My pharmacist will not get the liquid form for me due to the cost to them. I may have to go out of town to get it. We live in a small town. ## Your pain might be do to the change in dosage timing, since you went from 4 hours to 6 hours, but it is hard to say. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, c...

Yes having the same problem. I have four herniated discs and the original OC 80 would do the job but OP's to come close to doing the same job your talking twice the dose easily. Any info would be awesome ## Hello, Unfortunately I'm having trouble finding the answer to your question on the web, I even checked the FDA site and wasn't able to find any information on the topic. I read a report from 2011 that Purdue pharma stopped making Oxycontin..but that I'm to sure if anything has changed since then. Have you checked with any local pharmacies? Since they are the ones who provide medication, they would very likely know what is/isn't in stock at this time... You may even try contacting Purdue Pharma, it never hurts to go straight to the source! If you have any more ques...

I have a question I missed my Dr's appointment and made another one unfortunently I am going to be out of my med (oxycodone) So she wrote out a script for 5 days. When I go back to get the rest of the month worth will my insurance cover it? I have mass health. They are cutting me down as I asked them to in hopex to me getting off of them soon,I just didn't know if the insurance would cover two scripts in a month period even though it's only going to be for five days until I can go back to get the rest. ## Re: "how early can you fill oxycodone pills" To ensure an accurate answer, it'd probably be best to consult the specific pharmacy location that's filling your prescription. According to the CDC.gov, state laws surrounding refills may vary. They note that in ...

Looking for a dark blue capsule with MLW written on it. You take this diet pill only once a day. ## Hi Nancy, I think I may have found a possible match to your description. From what I could gather, a blue "softgel" marked with MLW is identified as a Maxiloss Slimming pill; made in China. The product label states that they are Herbal Diet Pills containing extracts from the following herbs: XianXian Cao Jobstears Artemisia Dracunculus Psyllium Husk Bamboo Shoot Lotus Leaf. The description even lists a Model Number (KZ-MZT012) that may be helpful for verifying additional product information. Lastly, I also wanted to add that the recommended dosing guidelines for this pill are shown as, 1 capsule (taken once daily) 30 minutes before or after breakfast. Hope this info helps to answe...

I hope so .ASAP. Thank You ## Yes, it is the same drug, just made by a different manufacturer. Once a drug is available for generic production, it is quite often made by many different companies and each one, according to law, must have a different marking to enable an accurate identification of the dosage and manufacturer in case of an emergency. In addition most pharmacies generally carry whatever generic they can get cheapest from their suppliers, so sometimes ...

I"m under going fertility and taking clomid if I start taking alcachofa pills will it be safe? Of corase I will stop taking them once I know I'm pregnant. ## Have you discussed it with your doctor? Alcachofa is a supplement made from artichoke, so it hasn't actually been tested for possible interactions with actual drugs. Thus, I can only advise you to discuss it with your doctor, before taking it.

Do they still prescribe the IP112 tablets, and do they still manufacture it? ## Hello, Richard! How are you? No, this dosage is no longer available. Currently, the FDA only allows a maximum of 325mgs of Acetaminophen per dose and the tablet you listed contained 500mgs of it, along with the Hydrocodone. This was done to try to reduce the number of overdose deaths from Acetaminophen toxicity. The FDA classifies as 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. ## Would you know what year they stopped making them?

44 194---YELOW ## I found two pills in some Mucinex bottle that looks different then the rest of the pills. They say 44/194 and they are yellow. ## This is Chlorpheneramine Maleate 4mgs, an antihistamine used to treat allergies and allergic reactions. A name brand for them would be Chlor Trimeton, and several others. More than likely the company who made the Mucinex manufactures these as well, since they are also over the counter items, and they just accidentally ended up in the bottle.

I have been taking clonidine for eight or nine years. It has always made me very tired, sleepy and fatigued. It also causes halusinations and lots of dreams. It has caused my hair to get really thin. The doctor has kept me on it because it lowers My pressure and so many of the other blood pressure medicines did not work. Have any of you had any of these problems including hair thinning? ## Yes, the FDA does list those as being possible side effects, you may also experience headaches, increased urination, and hypotension. What other medications did you try? Is this the only one that you are currently taking? ## No. I also take losartan, amlodipine, metoprol and hydrochlorothiazide. I would love to be able to get off all drugs and live healthy without them.
