I was put on Lyrics for chronic pain. Starting dose 50 mg at bedtime. If tolerated add 50 mg in morning. I got to the 50 x 2 per day and started getting itchy blisters on the palms of my hands. Anyone else with this type of reaction? ## Hi Lee, Based on my research, hives/blisters are a side effect of Lyrica. It is possible that your body is just having a reaction to the higher dose you are taking. Have you spoken with your doctor about this? You can learn more about this drug on the page for Lyrica Details ## I took 1 dose of lyrica and I had a similar reaction but then the skin on my hands started to get hard and the skin came off and also on my feet. Exfoliative dermatitis. Before this happened it felt like my hands were pounding and I also started to lose feeling in them. Now I...

I've seen many people using sonaderm nm for face to improve complexion & it works very quickly.....is it safe to use it to face. ## @Madhu, According to the manufacturer, Sonaderm NM can be used to treat bacterial and/or fungal derived skin infections (including, but not limited to): Infected atopic dermatitis infected excoriation bacterial superinfection of chronic superficial mycoses otitis externa infected steroid-responsive dermatoses eczema psoriasis They go on to note that it is used by applying a thin layer of cream to the affected skin area(s) two times daily along with gentle rubbing. If you happen to have a skin condition similar to what is mentioned above, I personally don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to use it on your face, unless instructed othe...

Hello, I am new to Newport News, Hampton, VA. I have been under the care of US Military for almost 15 years. When my husband retired from the Army and move back to Virginia. I was cut off of my pain medication. I was told that they will not be taking care of my long term chronic pain, that it was for active duty only. I was in shock. I was seriously injured after 18 years of owning and installing wallpaper working with liquid herbicide, pesticide, plasticizers, vinyl acetate. It destroyed my hands and feet, it comes out in the form of hundreds of blisters, peripheral neuropathy: toxic neuropathy, toxic encephalopathy,severe dermatitis of both hands and feet, bladder damage, chronic fatigue syndrome, reactive airway disease. I am need of a good pain specialist. I have been on Oxycontin,20 m

I have found all of the elements in this topical cream (dicl bacl gaba lido doxe) EXCEPT for "DOXE". Can someone explain the abbreviation of this component and any side-effects? ## Hi twotrees, There are a couple medications that come to mind when I see the abbreviation "Doxe": [1] Doxycycline - An antibiotic, topically used to treat moderate to severe inflammatory acne, or mild inflammatory acne. [2] Doxepin - When applied topically, it can reduce itching caused by atopic dermatitis, lichen simplex chronicus, and other skin diseases. I'm personally leaning towards "Doxepin" due to how close the abbreviation is to the actual drug name and it's topical use-case. If it is Doxepin, you can view a list of possible side effects in the link below: ncbi.nlm.nih....
