Sulphur

I can't take any medications with sulphur in them. I was prescribed Schuessler Tissue Salts Water Eliminator Nat Sulph for swollen feet caused by increase of dosage of Neurontin each tablet contains 0.5mcg of the Mineral Tissue Salt Sodium Sulphate in a lactose base should these be ok for me to take. ## Hello, Des! How are you? Sulfur is the base for many medications. However, are you allergic to it? If not and your doctor has prescribed them, then it should be okay for you to take them. However, a sulphate is not straight sulfur, it is one of its salts. Typical side effects usually include nausea, increased urination and dehydration, according to the product information.

I AM VERY ALLERGIC TO SULPHUR AND RECENTLY STARTED TAKING SUBOXONE AND STARTED HAVING SOME OF THE SAME SIDE EFFECTS!SO I WAS JUST WONDERING IF THERE IS ANY SULPHUR IN THE PILL SUBOXONE. ## The active ingredients in the name brand Suboxone are Buprenorphine and Naloxone. The inactive ingredients are lactose, mannitol, cornstarch, povidone k30, citric acid, sodium citrate, FD&C yellow no. 6, magnesium stearate, Acesulfame K sweetener and lemon lime flavoring. Based on that, not there doesn't appear to be any sulphur in it. What type of symptoms did you experience? ## The sweetener in it has sulfa in it so yes that is your allergic reaction ## Does suboxone have sulfur in it ## This is an active ingredient is suboxone Ace-sulfa-me K Sweetener= sulfa drugs

I have sulphur burps and i take oxycodone 15 mg ## Hello, Noel! How are you? It's possible that an inactive ingredient might be causing it. What are the markings on the tablets? That is what would enable me to check for you. Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you! The FDA classifies this medication as 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.

I am allergic to sulphur. The name sulpiride suggest a sulphur content. Does the sulpiride in the espiride contain any sulphur? ## am allergic to sulphur. The name sulpiride suggest a sulphur content. Does the sulpiride in the espiride contain any sulphur? ## I think you are confusing a sulfa based medication, with Sulfur/Sulphur, but they are not the same. Being allergic to one, does not automatically mean you will be allergic to the other. Which one are you actually allergic to, and what allergy symptoms do you experience? Allergic reactions typically include symptoms such as headache, hives, itching, swelling, and trouble breathing. Are the prescribing doctor, and your pharmacy aware of your allergies?

I am allergic to sulphur dioxide and sulphites. I want to know if aspavor contains this ingredient. ## Hello, Michelle! How are you? The active ingredient in it is Atorvastatin, which is used to help lower cholesterol. However, since it is not available in the U.S., I cannot state what the inactive ingredients are, so it would be best to check with your pharmacist to be sure. The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and joint/muscle aches. Is there anything else I can help with?

My wife has been put on Flexaril. The Brand name does not contain any sulphur, sulphites or sulphates, all of which shuts down my wife's kidneys.

I am allergic to sulphur does smz/temp dos have sulphur in it ## Hello, Marie! How are you? Yes, it is a sulfa based antibiotic, so there is a chance you may be allergic to it. The FDA warns that allergic reactions to it may include symptoms, such as nausea, dizziness, trouble breathing, hives, itching and possibly anaphylactic shock. However, if you are only allergic to sulfur, you might be able to take it. I am allergic to this antibiotic, but I am not allergic to sulfur. How did you discover you were allergic to it?

I purchased AZO in Mexico and was told it was a combination of a sulphur based antibiotics plus pain reliever for UTI. Does this actually contain antibiotics or is it just like the US brand Azo, an over the counter pain reliever for UTI? ## Hello, Kirsten! How are you? I'ms sorry, but I can't find any information on Azo from Mexico. Is there anything written on the packaging?

I'm allergic to Sulpha based drugs, but I am into cooking and wondered if it would be safe for me to try black sea salt? in the descriptions it keeps mentioning it has a sulphur like taste, smell, etc, in it's description, but I can't seem to find out if it's actually sulphur based. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. ## There is a difference between sulfa drugs and actual sulfur. Can you eat egg yolks without a problem? If so, then you are not allergic to sulfur, because they are very high in it. I am also allergic to sulfa drugs, but have no problem with actual sulfur. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks for the info, no, I have no problem with eggs, so will be able to actually try the black salt, appreciate the help.

Like I said, I have not taken the 4mg Hydomorphone, but just wanted to know what the affects and side effects are. ## I forget to mention that I am allergic to sulphur, so does this medication have sulphur in it? ## Hydromorphone is a generic for Dilaudid, which is a potent narcotic analgesic. As to whether or not it has sulfur, it is not an active ingredient in it, however, I can't double check any inactive substances, without knowing the specific manufacturer, since this is a generic that is made by several different companies. However, if your pharmacy is aware of your allergy, they should check it for you. Side effects may include: nausea, dizziness, constipation and dry mouth.

## There was an ointment that my mother would use when we would get a cut or blister or anything that might get infected. This was before antibiotics or antibacterial. It was coal black and smelled slightly of tar or sulphur. She would apply the ointment and bandage the cut and leave for a few days. When the bandage was removed the skin would be healed and looked white for awhile but there would be no scarring or discoloration. Do you know what this was and if so is it available today. I would love to have it as I am sensitive to antibiotics. ## Possibly ichthammol? ## An old-fashioned remedy for deep wounds that must heal from the inside out is: Clean wound with hydrogen peroxide.
