I am taking TMZ/TMP for a UTI this is the 2nd prescription in a month and 1/2. I had this infection for about a year and did not realize it, since I am getting older; I assumed symptoms of discharge/odor was a cleanliness problem and I would clean with this and clean with that. So I let it go way too long. My question, is would it be safe to take Olive leaf extract or Oregano Oil to help clear up this problem or wait until I take the entire prescription of antibiotic ## In this matter, I can only suggest that you check with your doctor. Herbal products are not tested for interactions with medications, so we have no information on whether or not they may cause problems. Does anyone else have information on this?

I dropped my adderall in a bowl of olive oil and it's coated. Will it still work if I take it? p.s it's adderall IR, not XR ## In theory, I wouldn't think it would create any problems, but I'd suggest talking to your pharmacist to be certain. They often have more information on some obscure interactions that this site doesn't have. I am just basing my guess off the fact that there are no warnings between using it and eating products that use olive oil. The only issue I can really see with out information is if they pill was in it long enough to start dissolving, then you may not get the full dosage. Does anyone else have information on this?

Have been taking levatol 20mg for 12years , BP is still kinda high, tried olive leaf extract and it brought it down. Can I use olive leaf extract and levatol instead of changing my medication? I would really like to try this first, since it seems to work. my question is ----is it safe to take levatol (20mg) with olive leaf extract . ( for the record, I am 77yrs old and in very good health,.levatol is the only medication I have ever taken and don't want to change it,I eventually want to taper down to 3 or 4 days a week but I know that it takes time and I want to start with this first, ## Hello, June! How are you? The main issue with adding the olive leaf extract is that it may make your blood pressure go too low, so you do need to be very careful and should only use it, if your docto...

I have been taking Vicodin for back pain.... Is Torbutrol the same as Vicodin ? Can I take this? ## Hello, Oliver! How are you? No, they are not the same. Vicodin contains Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone, while Torbutrol contains Butorphanol and you should only take it, if your doctor approves. 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?

The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and irritability. Is there anything else I can help with?

What is the homeopathic "natural" alternative for pennicillin, when there is no pharmacy around.? ## Hello, I read the following review from a Registered Naturopath who used Olive Leaf Extract on numerous occasions with his children and got spectacular results by taking Olive leaf Extract in a liquid form three times daily just before food. He mentioned to not buy the flavored varieties as the potency of the active ingredient Oleuropein is reduced... Olive leaf extract has been used as a natural antiotiobic for thousand years, but it is only recently that scientific research has shown that its active ingredient Oleuropein, has the ability to fight a broad range of infective microorganisms. Oleuropein has been found to be effective in fighting bacteria, fungi, yeasts, parasites a...

I have been taking 10MG of pravastatin without problems. Dr increased it to 20MG. Now I have several side effects. Could I take 10MG in AM and 10MG in PM and get the same benefit? ## Hello, Olive! How are you? Yes, that should be fine, as long as your doctor approves. In many cases, medications such as this, are prescribed as a single dose to help ensure that someone remembers to take the full dose, people tend to be less compliant if they have to take multiple daily doses. What types of side effects are you experiencing? The FDA lists the typical ones as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and joint/muscle aches.

what are the side effects of taking Dida? ## Dida is an over the counter herbal supplement that is claimed, but not proven, to help with gastrointestinal problems. It contains oregano, olive leaves, potmarigold, thyme, cardamom, cloves, garlic, cinammon, fennel oil and peppermint oil. It should be used with caution, because some of the herbs it contains, such as the peppermint oil, oregano and cloves can actually further irritate some gastrointestinal problems, such as gastritis and gas. Side effects are not studied for these types of products, as is done for prescription medications. Is there anything else I can help with?

Name a Beta Blocker that is the closest one to Levatol 20mg. Have taken Levatol for 12 yrs and it seems to be off the market, am worried about side effects since have such good luck with levatol ( no side effects and would like the closest one to it. have considered olive leaf extract ( I can regulate it ) ## I'd suggest asking your doctor about trying Labetalol, it is known to cause far fewer side effects than most others available. Its typical side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and hypotension. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Should I be taking 4mg of Medrol daily to help control my Arthritis? Been on this for 11 years now and health issues showing up. Torn achilles tendon right foot. Worn tendons and damaged ligaments left foot. Is it safe to be on Medrol this long? ## Hello, Oliver! How are you doing? I'm sorry about the health issues you've been experiencing. There are always risks to taking medications for a long period of time, that is why people are always advised to only continue something, as long as their doctor deems it safe for them to do so. Other long term effects, as reported by the FDA, may include weight gain, fluid retention, acne, and high blood pressure. Has your doctor tied these issues to your use of this medication? Or do they think there is some other cause? ## Thanks for the q...

A boy I was hanging out with left and the pill was where he was sitting. I opened it and inside was a brown sticky liquid... ## Found a capsule like you are describing no markings on it. Still have it if someone would be interested in testing it in a lab. ## Hello Oliver, If the pill you are describing does not have an imprint (marking) then it would not be a controlled medicine per the FDA regulations. With legal medication ruled out it could be a vitamin/supplement, dietary pill, or an illegal substance. Just to start with this does not match anything that the police or FBI websites warn about and so I would say it's fairly safe to assume that you have not found an illegal drug. On the other hand brown pills with liquids in them are quite common, in fact I take a GNC fish oil righ...

pradax has me feeling miserable. I have fluid retention so bad in the legs and feet and torso. I am dehydrated, mouth is dry all the time. eyes are dry. Please help. my IBS is acting up. I want off this. I had none of this with warfarin. anyone got the same problems? can i stop it on my own?????Olive ## Have you consulted your doctor, yet? In this case, it is very important to determine if your problems are being caused by the medication, or by something else. Pradaxa contains the active ingredient Dabigatran and, when stopped, it is not known to cause rebound coagulation. ## Don't do it alone for heavens sake - call your doctor you want off it - you have a choice no matter what he says - tell him/her you want to go back to Coumadin. You cannot stop it on your own as you might get a...

specific uses of rowatinex in the kidneys and its side effects ## Rowatinex is a natural supplement that is claimed to help dissolve and prevent reformation of kidney stones. However, since it is a natural supplement, it is not actually proven to do anything. The ingredients are listed as: Pinene 17mg, Camphene 5mg, Cineol B.P. 2mg, Menthone 6mg, Menthol BP 32mg, Borneol 5mg and Olive Oil BP 33mgs. As a natural product, the side effect profile for it has not been studied, as is done for prescription drugs, so I have no information on that to give you.

i have kidney stone at my right kidney.is this rowatimex helps to removed or disolve the stone? ## That is one of the things that Rowatinex is claimed to help with, but since none of the ingredients it contains are considered actual drug products in the U.S., I can't say whether or not it will actually help. It's listed as containing Pinene, Camphene, Cineol, Fenchone, Borneol, Anethol and olive oil. Learn more kidney stone details here. Has your doctor advised you to use this?
