Nor Stands For What

I bought a pain-o-soma- from India does it have any norco pain meds in it? ## From India anything goes, it can have poison for all you know. The only prescription with Soma and a pain killer you will find from a legit source is Soma compound which has codeine in it ## Hello, Mark! How are you? The FDA lists it as containing Carisoprodol, which is a muscle relaxant. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. However, what Eddy said stands, there's no way to be sure what you've actually received. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Get tapendol instead. ## What a terrible thing to tell fellow members? ------------------------------------------------ Tapentadol is an opioid medication used to treat moderate to severe pain.

what does the ng stand for in 95ng/10mg ? ## In science, chemicals and medicine, when referring to measurements like this, the abbreviation ng stands for nanogram, as explained by the NIH. Thus, what you typed would be 95 nanograms per 10 milligrams. Generally, in such results, that's the amount detected in the amount that was measured. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thank you Verwon for your reply. You asked if I had any other questions. I tested the other day and I am wondering if this reading is normal for my prescription? I am prescribed 20mg Oxycodone every 12 hours and 10/325 Hydrocodone four times daily. Oxycodone: 91.5 ng/10 mg (lab cutoff is 2 ng/10 mg) Hydrocodone: 104 ng/10 mg (lab cutoff is 2 ng/10 mg)

My esr is 94. Is that a high reading and what does it mean? ## Hello, Jeff! How are you? ESR stands for erythrocyte sedimentation rate and it indirectly measures how much inflammation is present in your body, as explained by the NIH. And yes, the 94 is very high. Generally, in men, normal is 15mm/hr if they are under 50 and 20mm/hr if they are over 50. Abnormal results may signify several medical conditions, including cancer, anemia, kidney disease and thyroid diseases. Have you been experiencing odd symptoms recently?

One bottle says Simbastatin 10mg tab NOR and the refill says Simbastatin 10mg tab ZYD The one with the ZYD is pink and say ZA20 on the pill and the other one,NOR, is white,round and has a 10 on it. Are these the same? ## Those are just abbreviations for the names of the manufacturers of those particular tablets. For example, the ZYD stands for Zydus Pharmaceuticals. Are there any other questions or comments? ## My pharmacist always tells me when he gives me a medication by a different vendor so that I won't be worried and he also puts a sticker on the bottle stating it looks different but it's the same medication. ## What does NOR on a bottle of prescription meds mean?

I have "gle" on my prescription. It literally says "Gabapentin 600mg TAB GLE". It normally says Gabapentin 600mg TAB MET. I believe it's the abbreviation for the manufacturer, but I'd like to be sure before I take them, as they are a different shape. ## Hi Pattie, My research leads me to believe that GLE stands for Glenmark Pharmaceuticals or Glenmark Generics, the packager/manufacturer of your Gabapentin.

Qualist manufacturer has a pill that states it to be a 5/325 the reads reads v 3604. To my knowledge I thought anything with the # 325 in it is usually a norco ## Hello, Reb! How are you? The V doesn't stand for what the tablet contains, that is just the manufacturers logo, so having a V on it does not make it Vicodin. The V stands for Vintage Pharmaceuticals, they were purchased by Qualitest several years ago and there are many pills with the V logo that don't contain narcotics of any type. Additionally, Norco is just a name brand for a certain combination of Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone….while it was originally ones that just contained 325mgs of Acetaminophen, with several doses of the Hydrocodone, since it is available as a generic now, they are pretty much all just us...

What does the MEQ stand for? I know MG, and Mcg, but I have never heard of MEQ before ## Hello, Jackie! How are you? It stands for milliequivalents, the prefix milli denotes that the measure has been multiplied by 1,000. The FDA classifies this as a supplement, it can be very harsh on the stomach and should be taken with food. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thank you for your answer. My husband had a Heart Attack several years ago and while he was in the hospital the doctor only gave him 150 mg and then reduced it to 75 mg. They also said really high doses could cause heart stoppage. My Potassium was 3.1 and according to the report I got said that 3.4 was normal and I can't really see 1500 mg of Potassium was necessary. What is your opinion.

which is the best medicine for itching?? ## Sarna Lotion. You can find it at the pharmacy or your local supermarket's medicine section, normally. It's about 13 bucks and the ONLY thing that got me through P.U.P.P.P.s when I was eight months pregnant with twins. It stands for Pruritic Urticarial Postules and Plaques of Pregnancy. Very big name for an insanely itchy rash that NEVER stops itching no matter what you do. Birthing the baby/babies is the only known cure, but Sarna lotion was my saving grace-it made it so i felt like a human being again. Very soothing and like...manna from heaven but for itchy skin. hope this helps.

red and white capsule has Pfuer printed on the red side and PGN 75 printed on the white side ## THIS IS NOT MORPHINE NOR ANY TYPE OF NARCOTIC! This is Pregabalin 75mgs, a generic for Lyrica. This is used to help prevent Epileptic seizures and to treat certain types of nerve pain. It is NOT a narcotic nor related to one, though. ## By the way, that is what the code PGN 75 stands for Pregabalin 75mgs. Pfizer is the manufacturer.
