## How do I take Sumapen , or what is the usual dosage? ## Sorry this medication is not approved and used in the US, so it is not regulated like they are and information on it is harder to find. I would recommend asking your doctor or pharmacist and they will be able to tell you.

pennicillin ## is sumapen 500 mg can be given/taken by an 10 yr old patient? ## Penicillin is an antibiotic that is used to treat, or prevent bacterial infections. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash. Maria, it can be prescribed to a child, but it should only be given to them if a doctor has stated that they need to take it. Is there anything I can help with?

Hi i stopped drinking the drug for two weeks or so already, just because i keep on forgeetting it. What should i do now ## Hello, MJ! How are you? This is an antibiotic and, in order for it to properly eradicate an infection, you need to make sure that you don't miss doses. It may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. What were you taking it to treat? Your doctor may need to prescribe another round of it, or a completely different antibiotic. Can you try leaving yourself reminders, so you don't forget to take it?

Can I take these two medicines together? I normally take Sumatriptan for migraines. I fell on the ice and hurt my shoulder and the Orthopedic has me taken 1 Meloxicam a day. I have a bad migraine and need to know if I can take a Sumatriptan. ## While I haven't come across any drug interactions or contraindications suggesting that it's unsafe to take the two together, I think it would still be wise to consult your prescribing doctor just to be on the safe. That way they can cross-check for other determining factors as well based on your medical records. You can also read more about each medication in the links below: [1] Meloxicam [2] Sumatriptan Hope this helps!

One takes sumatriptan succinate for migraines. When one has started, it is tough to see clearly. However, the blister packaging of this drug is diffilcult and frustrating to deal with even without a migraine being present! WHY do these pills have to be packaged this way?????? ## Well, unless you're storing them for a very long time, there's really no reason they have to stay in that packaging. You'd want to make sure to keep them out of reach of children and pets, but you could take them out of the blister packs ahead of time, so when you need to take one for a migraine, you're not fighting with the packaging at an inopportune time. :-) Learn more Sumatriptan details here. I used to get muscle relaxants in similar packaging and I'd sit down with about a weeks worth a...

Hi. My brother had a heart operation and after that his doctor prescribed him sumapen 250mg as a maintenance antibiotic so he can avoid any infection or any complications... I heard taking antibiotics for so long makes your body resistant to it. ## While that can be true, it would be far more dangerous, at this point, for him to stop taking it and not follow his doctor's instructions. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. It really just means that in the future, if he develops an infection, they will most likely have to give him a different antibiotic to eradicate it. How is he doing, now? ## my doctor's sister recommend to take sumapen 250mg for 3months,because her tonsillitis is swollen ....

Experience awful migaine attacks. I have been prescribed 50mg sumatriptan pills and 20mg nasal spray would these be okay to take together ## Hello, Lou! How are you? I'm very sorry about the migraines! Yes, as long as your doctor has instructed you to use them together. The maximum oral dose is 200mgs in 24 hours and 40mgs for the nasal spray, so you likely shouldn't exceed 200mgs a day in total, unless your doctor has said otherwise. The FDA lists its typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, vertigo, throat irritation and chest discomfort. Is there anything else I can help with?

I took the medication my doctor have me for migraines but now my head has pain and new pressure in the front of my head. Also my back is spasming really bad. ## Hello Shaun143! How are you? Sinus pressure and muscle spasms can be a normal side effect of this medication, as reported by the FDA. You may also experience nausea, dizziness and administration site irritation. However, such side effects are usually transient and tend to go away, with time, as your body gets used to the medication. If they do not, or they get severe, you should consult your doctor. Is there anything else I can help with?
