Where can I buy it ## Hi Michelle, The original Borofax ointment (boric acid 5% + lanolin) was actually discontinued in 1993 due to some toxic effects attributed to boric acid. Apparently though, the manufacturer of Borofax reformulated the product and began selling it again. The active ingredients in the new formulation are Zinc Oxide 15% and white petrolatum 68.6%. The newer product does not contain boric acid. The new formulation of Borofax (with Zinc oxide) is available, but may not be routinely stocked by pharmacies on shelves. So a pharmacist may have to special order it for you. Most popular diaper rash products available today contain the similar ingredients. Common examples include: Desitin cream with 40% Zinc oxide, lanolin, and white petrolatum. Balmex cream and A+D cream als...

Can I find Preludin in progressive mexico? ## Hi Michelle, Based on my research, Preludin (phenmetrazine) was actually discontinued a long time ago because of its wide spread abuse. I don't know if there's anything else like it on the market in Mexico, but you could always contact the manufacturer (Boehringer Ingelheim) directly for more specific details involving the availability of something similar. Medications like Phentermine are also in the same drug class as Preludin (known as phenethylamine). If you're facing any challenges with your weight, it probably wouldn't be too difficult to find a doctor who would prescribe it here in the US. So that may be something to consider as well if you're unable to find left over boxes of Preludin anywhere. I hope this helps! ...

I have bactrim that expired 10 days ago. Is it safe to take? ## Dear Michelle, I wouldn't take any medications after they expired. If u need a new script, call you're Dr. No medications should b used if they have expired. I just cleaned out medicine cabinet. ## To add some specifics, antibiotics are very problematic, once past their expiration, because as they begin to lose efficacy, they may not completely eradicate bacteria, which creates the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. Are there any other questions or concerns?

Is it safe to take a halcion if it's been expired for 20 years? ## Hello, Michelle! How are you? No, any medication that is that old should be disposed of, medications lose efficacy over time, because they degrade and there is a chance that one that is this old could make you ill, if you take it. The FDA lists Halcion as containing Triazolam, which is a benzodiazepine. They are most commonly used to treat anxiety and nervous disorders. They carry the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with?

Dilantin may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, mood swings and weight gain. Stilnox may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, hallucinations, sleep actions and next day hangover-like effects. Is there anything else I can help with?

need a doctor in the greater hamilton, nj area for triggerpoint therapy ## Hi Michelle, According to Wikipedia's article on trigger point, "Among MDs, many specialists are well versed in trigger point diagnosis and therapy. These include physiatrists (physicians specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation), family medicine, and orthopedics. Osteopathic as well as chiropractic schools, however, include trigger points in their training. Other health professionals, such as occupational therapists, physiotherapists, acupuncturists, massage therapists and structural integrators are also aware of these ideas and many of them make use of trigger points in their clinical work as well." So based on that information, I think it just comes down to which type of doctor or pract...

My doctor just put me on effient today, the problem is I'm on my menstural cycle. Is it ok to take it ## Hi Michelle, Because Effient (Prasugrel) can put you at risk for serious bleeding, it may be a good idea to discuss this concern with your doctor before moving forward with treatment. Linked below is an important warning message regarding the potential for serious bleeding that can occur: nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a609027.html NOTE: The bleeding mentioned in the warning section isn't necessarily related to bleeding that occurs during a menstrual cycle, so It's quite possible that it may still end up being fine for you to take. However I would always suggest playing it safe until further notice from your doctor, since you never really know what to expect from t...
