Look And Took

It was very interesting to read all of the complaints about the different brands of percoset and their effectiveness. Watson was the only brand that helped me. It was a sad day when Actavis took them over and stopped producing their percoset. I even called the company and complained. I have the same issue with Fentanyl patch brands. I'm so happy to see I'm not alone! ## Hello, Marie! How are you? There are two name brand Percocet tablets currently available, both listed by the FDA as being in the 5/325mg dosage. One is a round, white tablet with the word PERCOCET on one side and DuPont on the opposite. The other is a round, white tablet that has the marking PERCOCET 5 the front. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit formi...

Looks just like a blue football and is making me have heart aches my balance is off and feel like i'm fixing to have seizure. What did I take? ## They could be fake but if you provide the NDC # on the pill perhaps someone could attempt to answer your question. It is always best to only take medicine prescribed to you? ## Hello, Kandy! How are you doing? If you are feeling so horrible and are unsure of what you took, please seek medical attention. Xanax can cause seizures in some people, though it can also be used to prevent them, but it's not very common. The FDA lists it as carrying the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Were there any markings on it?

I've been taking Watson Pharmaceuticals Lorazepam and it worked great. Apparently, Actavis just took over Watson, and Watson no longer exists. I'm looking for another bran of Lorazepam that has the same Active & Inactive ingredients as the Watson brand, however, I can't locate the info on line and my pharmacy won't help me. Does anyone know what other manufacturer carries Lorazepam that is exactly the same as the Watson brand. Actavis and Sandoz manufacturer's Lorazepam does not work. ## Well, you're pharmacy won't help, because if the active ingredient is the same, they are considered the same. The inactive ingredients are called such for a reason, they don't affect the drug. How long have you been taking your current dose? It is possible that you...

I really need a few drug names fitting this description. I am trying to find the name of a drug I took. It is a big white pill that looks like Vicodin but thicker and bigger. When I googled it originally one of the uses said it was used during physical therapy. ## what is a pill that haS THE NUMBERS2410V ## Casey, I'm sorry, but that is far too vague of a description for us to be able to definitively narrow it down, there are many products on the market, both prescription and over the counter that meet that description. Even being used during physical therapy, it could just be a vitamin supplement. John, the tablet with that marking contains 350mgs of Carisoprodol, the active ingredient in Soma, it is a muscle relaxant. Side effects may include: nausea, dizziness, headache and dry...

i was put on metoprolol 25mg and i caused major side effects in me i stopped it after 2 days and its been 2 weeks and im still having side effects from this medication i had blurred vision,clogged ears, and terrible shooting pains in my head i m praying it all goes away in time... ## Side effects shouldn't still be lingering if you only took it for 2 days and stopped it over 2 weeks ago. Were you taking it for high blood pressure? If so, then some of the effects you're experiencing could also be from that. Learn more high blood pressure details here. Have you contacted your doctor? Hypertension is a serious condition that you can't just let go untreated, doing so puts your life at risk.

I was diagnosed with ADHD and was prescribed Adderall (I believe the bottle was 10mg of amphetamine salts but I think it had a word that started with a d like Dextroamphetamine maybe?) Anyways, I tooke it more than a few times and it was SUCH A HELP you could tell the difference. So then I got my refill and was pretty happy. However, today is my first day taking the refill, and although it is the same 10mg dosage as before, I feel no effects.... My body should be use to the adderall because I've taken it before, so why am I not experiencing any of the effects at all? It feels like I was given sugar pills haha. However the pills look exactly like before. Should I just continue to take them through out the week and hope they begin to work? If they don't what should I tell my docto...

light orange pill triangler ## Does zanax have 44386 on the back and blue in color. also oval shape? ## Are there any markings on the orange triangular tablet in question? I need this information in order to research it for you. Can you please post back and clarify? The FDA warns that Xanax carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, headache, and irritability. Tater, no that tablet contains 25mgs of Doxylamine, it is most commonly used to treat insomnia. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including headache, dry mouth, and dizziness. ## It took 3 years to answer that one Verwon, still you're on top of your game! ## 10 years to answer that question, I need to practice my math it seems

brown and white capsule...I didn't see any markings but took one for having gas... ## Without knowing the markings, it is impossible to say for sure what it was, but yes, there are some antacids on the market that match that descriptions, as well as many other medications. It could have also been a laxative or a vitamin. Do you know if it was supposed to be a prescription or over the counter item?

Does anyone know of a pill or vitamin that closely resembles Vicodin regular strength? I did a bad thing, took my roomates last few that have been in his medicine cabinet forever, and would like to put something harmless back that won't raise any eyebrows... I know this is dishonest, but please help! Thanks. ## hyrebhyr hyhy 3 kjumju uren ## It is hard to say, since we have no idea what the pill you are speaking of looks like and they can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. That said, stealing and switching out someone's medications is NOT a good idea and quite illegal. Vicodin contains the active ingredients Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone, this is a narcotic pain reliever and if you replace it with something innocuous, they will know the difference as soon as they take one. ...

My chusband has AFib and took his flecanide 100mg tonight at 6pm then took another at 9pm . Around 9:15 he had an extremely sudden fatigue attack. He laid down for about an hour and slept.

My question is could this situation be dangerous, and what symptoms should I reallyw watch for?? ## jojo just looked up flecanide. it should only be taken every 12 hours. why did he take an extra dose and how is he know? this can be very dangerous. this med has some very significant side effects. you can look it up, just type it in on the net. if he still feels bad id take him to the er. otherwise call your dr . hope this helps ## Karen he is supposed to take it every 8 hours but I think he forgot that he took it an...

It is white, round with IP 203 on one side ## Hello, Jean! How are you? Yes, this is a round, white tablet that has IP over 203 on one side and just a score line on the opposite. It contains 325mgs of Acetaminophen and 5mgs of Oxycodone, which are the active ingredients in Percocet. Learn more Percocet details here. This is a narcotic pain reliever, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

I have a pretty big tolerance and took thought that I needed to take around 10 to feel anything I then looked it up and am not sure if I should get help ## Hello, Dave! How are you? Did you suffer any adverse effects? Believe it or not, the biggest concern from taking that many is due to the Acetaminophen, not the narcotic Hydrocodone. Exceeding 3,000mgs of Acetaminophen in a day may cause liver damage, liver failure and risks fatal toxicity. The FDA classifies this medication 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. Medications shouldn't be taken just in the hopes of feeling something. If that's why you take something, then you may have a problem that needs...

I accidentally took my grandma's Plavix two nights in a row instead of my Zoloft. Is that ok? ## Hi Summer, Sorry to hear about your accidental mishap with Plavix. How have you been feeling lately since the timing of your post? With Plavix being an anticoagulant (blood thinning agent) vs Zoloft being an antidepressant, I can't imagine how the difference in effects must've felt, even before discovering that you took the wrong medication. Something else to consider is that as a result of this occurrence, your grandma will be two days short on her meds and might be at risk of withdrawal effects as well as yourself, depending on how long & how often you've taken Zoloft. I hope all is well and look forward to reading any future updates you may have.

I have been taking 60mg oxycontin for several months now, but recently I've not been feeling well and I'm in severe pain.

coated from the 1960's ## what was the name of the small tan oval pill with the word sandoz on it. It was a tranguilizer that I took in the 1960's and was taken off the market in the late 1970's. It was prescribed to me when I was 17. It made me so doped up that my parents refused to let me continue taking it. I was never able to find a doctor who could tell me the name of it. It was so long ago. I just remember what it looked liked and how awful it made me feel.

be extremely careful when taking flomax and read the fine print. it tells you that you run the risk of dying from flomax if you do certain reasonable thing. like living. took flomax for 4 days, worked out in the yard for a couple of hours. laid down on the front porch and stopped breathing. but for the grace of God i am still here, disabled but alive. user beware. ## Wow, I'm actually surprised they allow drugs like this to remain on the market. If death is a side effect, then what's the point of taking it? LOL! no pun intended there. You can actually report experiences like this to the FDA's med-watch program if you wish to.
