Where can I find in Calgary? ## Hi Suma, From what I could gather, Ledercort (Triamcinolone) may be available in the countries listed below: Taiwan Ethiopia India Japan South Korea Argentina I don't think you can find it in Calgary, unless perhaps you order it online or get it on the street. It is a prescription drug, so you may even need to get a doctor's recommendation first. Have you tried looking under the name Triamcinolone?

It's looking like a lack of control over good manufacturing processes is what led to the shortage of Drixoral. Schering-Plough recalls Drixoral Cold & Allergy TABLETS REASON: cGMP Deviations (by mfr Actavis) Looks like Actavis has a history of this for many years. (Google search link using Actavis cGMP Deviations) I'd guess Schering-Plough and the FDA dropped the ball on this one.

I am using Levocetrizine + Montelukast for Dermatographic urticaria for last 2 days 1 dose in evening after food. Usage of this medicine is leading to cough symptoms . Last time i have taken Levocetrizine treatment for 14days after completion i suffered with respiratory infection and had to take antibiotic threapy Why it is leading to cough symptoms and should i continue the treatment for 30days as suggested by my Doctor. Kindly suggest ## Hi, Viju! Sorry about the problems that you're having. Antihistamines can cause dryness of your mouth, throat and nose, so that could be what's causing the coughing. Learn more Levocetirizine details here. Have you consulted your doctor about it? There may be an alternative medication you can take, or some solution for the coughing.

Hello, My father, a diabetic from last 10 years, suffered from a heart attack 2 months back and had an angioplasty done with 2 stents implanted. He has been prescribed medicines such as Aspirin (Ecosprin-AV 150 ) and Clopidogrel (clopilet 75) among others. After taking these medicines for 2 months, he suffered from extreme gastrointestinal bleeding and had to be hospitalized under ICU care and was also administered 6 bottles of blood. Now he is fine, but it is known that the main undesirable side effects of aspirin are gastrointestinal bleeding, stomach bleeding, etc especially in higher doses. My doctor tells me that it is necessary to continue with the aspirin for the sake of stents implanted. I am afraid that continuing with this medicine may cause another bout of stomach/gasto-intes...

I feel led to share with you guys my nightmare journey with Xanax. I have been taking it for well over 15 years. Sometimes, I would take quite a bit during some very rough situations in my life. I tried to stop a year ago and ended up in the Emergency Room of our local hospital. I asked my doctor for help getting off this nightmare drug, but she just said "taper" off. Finally I read different blogs of people who have stopped and became really inspired. You all know the horror of this drug. I had serious headaches, nightmares and memory problems to the max. This drug gives you ANXIETY. I am down to one half of a 1mg quarter and about to stop altogether as I cannot take the nightmares. This horrible drug, caused me to make very poor decisions during the past years. I lost of all m...

Not necessarily a direct pain killer. To learn more click on the link below... Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do.
