Morning After Pill

Really need to knw,cn oralcon b used as morning after pills ## Hello, Lerato! How are you? Many oral contraceptives can be used as emergency contraceptives, but you shouldn't do so, unless you doctor has approved, because it requires taking multiples, at once, depending on the dosage of the hormones in them. It's really best to use the tablets that are specifically made in the correct dosages for this purpose. Have you consulted your doctor about the issue? Have considered just taking the Oralcon daily as a contraceptive to prevent pregnancy? That is much safer than using the emergency contraception.

I absolutely HATE HATE HATE taking this pill in the morning and having to drink a full glass of water, and then waiting another hour before coffee or food. I understand that morning is the optimum time, but do any of you take it other times, like at bedtime? Any adverse affects? ## I have no experience with using this, but have you tried asking your doctor or pharmacist if changing the time of day that you take it will make a difference? They would be the best ones to ask about it. Everything I am reading says it should be taken a half hour to an hour, before you eat anything. Thus, I am not sure if there is a specific reason that it must be taken in the morning, there are some times when a doctor recommends this solely because they want a patient to get in the habit of taking it at the...

Hi. I'm now on prednisone but I took it at night instead of morning as on the instructions. And I took only 5 not 6 pills. Does any of this make a difference? ## Correction I'm on Prednisolone ## Not taking the correct dosage can definitely make a difference, as you may not be getting enough of the medication to actually clear up the condition being treated. What did you take only 5, instead of 6, as instructed? As to the time of day, that isn't really significant, as long as you spread the doses out properly. If it says to take 6 the first day and 5 the second day, then that means you should keep them 24 hours apart. Prednisolone is a steroid class medication and it may cause side effects, such as: nausea, dizziness, weight gain and fluid retention. Learn more:

Should I take Diltiazem at night 180mg as sometimes my bp is low inthe morning ## Hello, Holly! How are you? How low is it? You may need to adjust the time of day that you take, if your doctor approves, taking it earlier in the day may help prevent that. The FDA lists its other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and increased urination. It is normal for it to be lower in the morning, when you first wake up, but it depends on how low. Is it causing you any symptoms, such as dizziness or nausea?

Has anyone had any experience with taking just half a pill in the morning to begin with? I have been reading all of the reviews of this drug so would like to know if perhaps taking half the initial dose would give the body time to adjust to it. ## Even though they say not to split the pills, my gyne told me to start with a half at night. Didn't have any issues. ## You should take the dosage your doctor has instructed you to take. Generally you are supposed to start at a lower amount, and go up gradually over a month, until reaching the known effective dosage. The FDA warns that this medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, nervousness, mood swings, and insomnia. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello, I have been taking Belviq for several months. This morning, I may have taken two doses within a one-hour time span. I'm just not sure. If I did, should I be concerned? Lesson learned. I absolutely must place these in a daily dose dispenser so there is no question whether I've taken it or not. ## How are you? Did you experience any adverse effects? Typically, doubling up on most medications isn't dangerous, unless it's a narcotic or something that depresses the central nervous system, but it could cause the side effects to be more severe. So, you may experience more nausea, dizziness, coughing and tiredness than usual, as listed among its typical side effects by the FDA. However, it is always best to consult your doctor to be sure and for your own safety. ## I'...

After trying Sonata for chronic insomnia, my doctor put me on Lunesta. At first, I took 1 mg which just made me sleepier and grumpier. So she moved me up to 3 mg. This works well but I wake up so sleepy that by mid afternoon I have to take a nap. By evening I feel great, am wide awake, and full of energy. I am a night owl so I stay up until 11:30 or midnight. I have taken the pill earlier but I stay up for awhile. Should I try to go to bed when I take the pill or wait until later to take it around the time I go to bed? I need hangover help. ## Next day hangover-like effects are a normal side effect of this medication, according to FDA reports. Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, and odd taste. And yes, it should be taken within half an hour of when you are going to bed. Ho...

I have been on suboxone for about a year now and I'm wondering if I or my Dr is doing something wrong? I feel normal all day, but when I wake up in the morning, I feel like I got hit by a bus. I wake up and take my sub immidatly trying to advoid the pain but it normally takes me a hour-hour & a half to feel good enought to get dressed for work..etc. I don't know how to describe it other then it feels like my stomach is being twisted up. Any help or suggestions would be helpful. I only ask cause my Dr seems to blow it off and send me on my way. ## All medications only last a certain period of time, so it is normal for there to be a time period where it will wear off and you may have to wait for your next dose to kick in.

Is there any preference as to when you take bystolic - morning,evening, or mid day? ## Hi sarah, Based on my research, Bystolic's (Nebivolol) recommended starting dose is 5mg once daily with or without food. There aren't any specific details stating the time of day in which it should be taken. However, I would personally recommend taking it at the same time everyday at whatever time is most convenient for you. Learn More: Nebivolol Details I hope this helps! ## Bystolic contains the active ingredient Nebivolol, which is a beta blocker that's commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Learn more Nebivolol details here. Most doctors prefer that it be taken in the morning, to help during the time times of day that you would normally be most activ...

After 7yrs.of being perscribed oxy 30s 6 a day would the first dose of the day make you concidered intoxicated?simply because your eyes are diolated,what would be considered a normal level?Thanks!!!!!!! ## Are you referring to DUI or DWI laws? If so, when it comes to drugs, there isn't really an allowable limit, per se. The way any medication can affect any given person varies, which is why such markers are used to determine someone's level of impairment. And yes, even after 6 years of use, you could still be considered impaired, at your normal dosage level. Are there any other questions or comments? ## R U in AZ by any chance.

Can i take my tramadol in the night ## Hello, Marcella! How are you? Tramadol is an opiate analgesic that's most commonly used to treat pain, so there's really no reason it must be taken at any specific time of day, unless your doctor has given some reason for it. There shouldn't be any problem taking it at night. 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. Are you having problems with the side effects of it?

Still on my starter pack. At 20 mg. I haven't had any dreams, my big concern is energy. Should I take it in the morning? or at night? Discuss. ## It may really be a matter of trial and error to see how it affects you, so you know when to take it. It may cause drowsiness as a side effect, so if you experience too much of it, then you may do better taking it at night. ## I have tried both and would rather take it at night. Then I started experiencing these weird surges that made my eyes squeeze shut (not unlike a quick seizure) they best way I can explain it is if you stare at something a long time and force yourself to look away you blink involuntarily. It would happen at the point of being almost asleep. It scared me to death! Now when I take it in the am I have no energy and have a...

It is a great medication, but it may take 4 to 6 weeks for it to reach its full level of efficacy in your body, and it might not be the right medication to help you. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. Do you have a BP monitor of your own? Hav...

My mother was taking pills for morning sickness in 1964. They were small, pink on one side, and light blue on the other. We don't have any to examine, so I have no information on any identifying numerals or letters that might have been present. My sister's doctor indicated that this might be related to my sister's infertility. Can anyone identify this medication (and, more importantly, indicate any problems they might have caused an infant)? Thanks!! Bill ## This is very little information to go on. Her doctor may be thinking of the medication Thalidomide, which was used for nausea in pregnant women and found to cause severe birth defects, however, it was pulled from the market in 1961, so there is no way your mother could have been using it in 1964. The reason your doctor m...

I've been on suboxone for four years and I've been taking about a quarter of a strip everyday .. My last dose was at 11:30 this morning .. So my question is how long should I wait to take a hydrcodone? ## You usually have to wait at least 72 hours, unless your doctor instructs otherwise. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic and warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?
