Is it safe to take it? what is the maximum number of days can it b taken? any side effects?thanks ## Hi, Ann! How are you feeling? All medications carry the risk of side effects, including this one. It contains the active ingredient Tranexamic Acid and its side effects are usually related to gastrointestinal issues and may include nausea and diarrhea. Learn more Pause details here. It should be safe to use as long as you have your doctor's approval. However, at your age, this type of bleeding is usually caused by low progesterone levels, because you may not be ovulating each month to produce enough to stabiliz...

My family doctor prescribed 4 Amox/K 500-125 Tab to be taken at one time before a dental procedure because of my heart problems. Is this safe to take 4 pills at one time. ## Hi Lois, According to the drug monograph for that 500mg tab, the dosing indications are listed at 1 tablet every 8 hours for 7-10 days. However, on the stronger version of this medication, the maximum recommended dose is listed at 1 tablet of Amoxicillin (875mg) + clavulanic acid (125mg) every 12 hours for 7 - 10 days. Based on that, it sounds to me like you took a few too many at one time. If you start feeling any repercussions from having done that, you may want to look into getting some probiotics. The good bacteria is healing to your gut and also prevents things like yeast infections (which can be a side effect ...

There is, however, one available with a higher amount of Acetaminophen, it goes up to 750mgs with the 10mgs of Hydrocodone. Is there anything else I can help with?

My sister got some "Cariso 500" a few days ago. She says it is not nearly as effective as the Carisoprodal (Soma) 500 she has been taking. Are the ingredients weaker or substandard? ## Where did she get it? There is no 500mg Carisoprodol available on the U.S. market form a U.S. pharmacy. Carisoprodol is a muscle relaxant and the maximum dosage it's available in here is 350mgs. Learn more Carisoprodol details here. This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and drowsiness. ## Hey my post is missing?

I have been taking ornex maximum strength for years for migraine headaches and sinus headaches. It has worked so well!! Now I can't find anyone who still sells them. Does anyone know if they are discontinued or where I can buy them?? ## Have you tried searching for the main active ingredients in Ornex maximum strength? I found that they are Acetaminophen 500mg + Pseudoephedrine HCL 30mg. I think you'll be happy to know that both of these ingredients can be found over-the-counter at pretty much any pharmacy or drug store. If you can't find Ornex there, then it's not guaranteed that you find these two drugs in the same dosage as Ornex, but at least you can still have access to them when needed. I hope this helps! ## I know Ornex is the only thing over the counter that woul...

dosage ## Esperal contains the active ingredient Disulfiram and is most commonly used to treat alcholism. Common side effects may include: nausea, metallic taste in mouth and drowsiness. When treatment is first started, it is usually taken once daily, in a maximum dose of 500mgs for 2 weeks, then adjusted accordingly by your doctor. Are there any comments or questions? ## Esperal contains only 5 crystals of the dry disulfiram. The reaction on this drug is cruel, but the good thing is that if the Esperal patient remains off alcohol, Esperal does not maintain the level of Disulfiram in a blood stream. It works around the clock checking the patient's blood stream for alcohol and only if the concentration of Ethanol goes above 0.08 Esperal drops one crystal of the medicine into the loca...

are you all changing this strength of loratab to something else. if so what is the 10-500mg being changed to. what is the strongest mg of loratab that you guys have now? ## Hello Frances! How are you? This website does not manufacture, prescribe nor sell any medications, it is an information only website. And in respect to that, I can provide you with the information you need… From now on, the maximum strength available will contain 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. The U.S. FDA felt that there were far too many risks associated with the higher amounts of Acetaminophen. Is there anything else I can help with?

What pharmacy carries the blue hydros 10/500 in El paso, Tx westside? ## If you're referring to the blue ones that are manufactured by Watson with the marking WATSON 540 on them, you aren't going to find them anymore. You'll need to be looking for them in white, since Watson has removed the dye. Learn more Norco details here. Additionally, they will all soon be changed to only contain a maximum of 325mgs of Acetaminophen, due to concerns raised by the FDA, because of the risk of liver damage associated with long-term use and the toxicity of overdose. Thus, all manufacturers are expected to change their formulations to the lower amount no later than January of 2014. Do you remember who the manufacturer was? ## Until then Mr.Verwon where can I get them here? I am already going...

May I ask how many tablets can I take each time? Thanks a lot. ## The maximum amount of these tablets that it is safe to take, at once, is 2 and you shouldn't exceed 4 doses in 24 hours, for a total of no more than 8 tablets. Daily dose should be spaced, at least, 6 hours apart. Taking more 1,000mgs at once or exceeding 4,000mgs in a day can be toxic and may cause severe organ damage. Are there any other questions?

Where can I find them? they keep changing them all the time. is it because you need to pay for them out of pocket instead of getting it on Medi-Cal? ## Hello, Hugo! How are you? I'm sorry, but the ones with the 500mgs of Acetaminophen in them are no longer available. The maximum amount of Acetaminophen that is now approved for these combination medications is no more than 325mgs per dose. Thus, if you have a prescription for one with the higher amount, you'll need to see your doctor for a new prescription. This is 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. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Having Medi-Cal has nothing to do with it.

What is the maximum dosage? I am having partial seizures and currently taking 1500 mg. The seizures are not as severe or as frequent , but I am still having symptoms ? ## Hello, Hoyt! How are you? The maximum daily dosage of Levetiracetam, the generic for Keppra, can go up to 3,000mgs. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, weight changes, mood swings and drowsiness. However, you might do better switching to a different medication, so you should check in with your doctor. Is there anything else I can help with?

This is an old bubble pack of "Maximum Strength Tylenol Allergy Sinus". I would like to know the strengths of the contents of this so I may find some fresh medicine of the same type. This one works for me, unlike other meds. Thank you. ## Update to info. This is a yellow caplet (2) each in the bubble pack. I have the bubble pack but not the outer packaging and don't know what the strengths are or if there are any additional ingredients which may be allieviating my other symptoms (swollen membranes.) Each caplet has 500 on one side and TAS on the other. TAS, no doubt, is for Tylenol Allergy Sinus. ## Hi Judy, Looks like I came across a description of your pill containing much of what you're asking about: "Each capsule-shaped, hard, bright yellow, film-coated extra str...

does hydrocodone apap come in 12.5/500 mg ## No, before the DEA made changes the maximum dosage available only contained 10mgs of the Hydrocodone, since the changes, the maximum available contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. This FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Are there any markings on the tablet in questions? Can you please post back and clarify? I will gladly research more information for you.

did they quite making hydrocod/apap10-500mg tab because they are not the same that they give me now they are call Norco 10-325mg tab and the ones I was taken was lortab what the differ in them please help me to no all about this the 10-500 help my back so much and now the don't help as much why. ## Hello, Jeannie! How are you? Yes, as of the first of the year, they are only available with a maximum of 325mgs of Acetaminophen per dose, just like the new one you are taking. The Acetaminophen tends to augment the action of the narcotic, that's why the new one doesn't seem to work as well for you. However, your body should adjust after a week or two. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, d...

Is lortab 10 / 325 weaker than lortab 10 / 500 ## Hello, Jim! How are you? Yes and no, the amount of Acetaminophen in it is lower and the ones with the higher doses are no longer available. This medication was changed and all formulations that are now available can only contain a maximum of 325mgs of Acetaminophen per dose. However, the Acetaminophen augments the action of the narcotic for some people, so the one with the higher amount of it may work better for them, but it doesn't work that way for everyone, so for some people these might basically be equivalent, since they both contain 10mgs of the Hydrocodone. 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, d...

Ok my sister is worried about me taken the amount of this medication. I'm taken 2 tablets of hydrocodon-acetaminophn 10-500 as needed 3 times a day. This would mean I'm taken 60-3000. Is this gonna cause problems with my liver. What is a healthy liver number before one should start to be concerned. ## According to the FDA, the current maximum recommended adult dose of acetaminophen is 4,000 milligrams per day. So in my opinion you should be fine with the amount you've been prescribed. However other webpages have noted that Extra Strength Tylenol packages will now list the maximum daily dose as six pills, or a total of 3,000 milligrams, down from eight pills a day, or 4,000 milligrams. My suggestion is if you have to take this amount on a regular basis, I'd consider chang...

My wife will be taking hydrocodone acetaminophen 5 500 tb for the first time to help her get through her physical therapy. How long before the therapy starts should she take the pill to get maximum relief during the session. ## It's really difficult to say, because it takes 15 to 20 minutes for the regular release tablets like this to start being digested and enter someone's blood stream and then, of course, you want it to be working, before she goes in for the session to minimize the pain. I'd say she should take it at least half an hour before. Learn more Vicodin details here. However, I'm not a doctor, so I'd suggest she call hers and ask them, just to be certain. Additionally, like all analgesics, they really work better at preventing pain, rather than relieving ...
