Pills For Gau

I was taking 2 pills per day (1AM & 1PM)of EX400 Gauifenesin to loosen thick mucous for 3 days and stop, then I experience sudden severe nausea and vomiting (6x) for 3 hours. Then I took Reglan & Benadryl to stop the dizziness and vomiting. ## Reglan?? Oh my!! Have you not seen all the warnings about reglan and tardiff disconesia sp? I used to take reglan for swallowing until it started to make my face grimace!! As for Guafenesin / Guafinex (cough syrup) you should see the properties in that drug. My sister has a seizure disorder and if anything cold-related is treated with Guafenesin or anything containing Guafinex ...she is screwed, and automatically goes into seizure state. So I would be careful of BOTH ## Amy, how are you doing, now? Just taking it for 3 days should not caus...

And can I take propranolol on an empty stomach? The reason I've not asked my doc these is that I never got a chance to, with all the panicing and now I can't contact one till tomorrow due to having no minutes. ## Hello, Chanika! How are you? It can be taken with or without food, so unless your doctor says otherwise, gauge it for yourself, if it makes you nauseous on an empty stomach, then it would be best to take it with food. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am a retired Auto Worker with multiple injuries and multiple surgeries. I do not nor have I ever used street drugs. I am a non drinker, and as you can imagine I ran the gauntlet with every single pain medication out there. I do not like being high. I don't like being slowed or have any of my senses retarded in anyway. methadone does not do that to me. it cures my pain and I have a quality of life. I have 5 children so I had live a very active life. As a pain clinic patient I follow all the rules to t. I don't understand as long as I've been a pain patient I have a decade-long of clean urinary analysis...

I take 3x5 mg tablets of morphine sulfate, generally 3 times per day, for back pain, rib pain. At what level should one cease from driving a car, and what is the shelf life of 5 mg tablets? ## Hello, David! How are you? As to the driving, you need to gauge that for yourself. It depends on how dizzy and drowsy you feel on the Morphine, it makes a lot of people conk out asleep, but only you can judge how much it affects you. And the shelf life if they are sealed in the original factory container is 3 years, but once that is opened so they are exposed to the elements that cause degradation, they are only good for a year. 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...

I apologize to anyone who is annoyed with my repetitive posting. I am very serious about starting Suboxone and staying sober (no booze and/or drugs). It is hard to gauge how many people read these posts. I am looking for advice and specifics on the experience of starting suboxone. I made a mistake my first try, had a tough time and honestly, I am scared to try again. If it I don't do it right the second time I fear that I might start to lose faith in the treatment. Those who have time please read the previous post, Advice starting Suboxone, ?s. Please read the replies. Cocopuffs thanks! I am researching this treatment. I am under the supervision of a primary care physician, a psychologist, and a psychiatrist who prescribed this drug. They all know the truth about me and my situation...

A dry syringe and needle of at least 21 gauge should be used. Use of a wet needle or syringe may cause the solution to become cloudy."
