Tb Drugs

I have to take rifampin for two years. What are the side effects I should worry about? ## Hello, Tazzy! How are you? Sorry about the TB! This medication does have a risk of hepatoxicity, so your doctor should be monitoring you and checking your liver function regularly via blood panels. Its side effects may include nausea, flushing, dizziness and flu-like symptoms. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I am taking blong, linoux, ethide, qpas, remylin, coxerin and hansepran tablets for treating tb. Please let me know the side effects of blong tablets.

i have spent three months with my wife and she can not get pregnant. she does not even menstrate. she has started using tbs primulet ntod drugs. what is tbs primulet. ## what is tbs primulet drus ## Primolut N contains the hormone Norethisterone, it is very similar to Progesterone. If a woman is lacking in it, she may not have a good uterine lining, this can disrupt her menstrual cycle and prevent her from getting pregnant and from being able to carry a pregnancy to term, if she does get pregnant. By correcting this problem, it can help her to get a normal menstrual cycle, become pregnant and carry the baby to full term. Learn more: Are there any other comments or questions?

Can you tell me the difference between the above med. and Metoprolol TAB TAR 100 MG? Thank you ## Metoprolol Suc (Succinate) ER is an extended release (hence the ER in the name) tablet. Metoprolol Tar (Tartrate) is an immediate release medication. Would you happen to know if these two drugs are coming from different manufacturers? Also, I am guessing that with the TAR you have to take more doses throughout the day than with the SUC? Hope this helps! You can read more about this drug on the page for ...

I was given a script for pain when I had hip surgery. I got the pills (long white M368) but I have never used them. I was wondering if they were good for any type of pain? I took them in the hospital and I know that they worked. ## This is a generic perscription for vicodin. I have had these becasue my insurance won't pay for the real ones. Be careful with taking this medication. the 7.5 is the amount of real meadication, the 500mg is the amount of asprin or regualar pain reliever. It will eat your stomach up if you are not careful!! ## found this in room ## This is actually a combination of Acetaminophen with the Hydrocodone, so it can be very dangerous to self-diagnose and take it for other conditions, especially if you are taking any other prescription or over the counter drugs a...

What is it? I found it in my yard. TB200 clear turquoise oblong capsule. ## I've tried several different searches for this and I can't find it listed anywhere. It is, possibly, something over the counter, which would not be listed in the prescription drug databases. Was it found in the U.S.? Does anyone else know what this is? ## Did you ever figure this out? My sil just found a pill in her house, not sure where it came from, but it sounds like what you described. ## So we found one of these, looked up TB200 and could not find anything. Of course as I have teenagers I start to think my kids are doing some kind of drugs. Either way our pill came from a friend that was at the house. Its a Walgreen IB 200. So Aspirin. The bottom of the I is printed on the pills seems and doesn'...

I am reading a lot of complaints about this drug. I was taking Watson 3202 5-325 for pain and it worked for my pain. Now Actavis makes 2172 in place of Watson 3202. I don't see any difference. ## Some people may be more sensitive to different inactive ingredients than others. Their bodies may also process/metabolize these ingredients at a different rate, affecting absorption. However, the amount of active ingredients in generic drugs is rumored to fluctuate by up to 20% more or less. I don't know if this varies from batch to batch, but I'm glad to hear that someone else is having a good experience with the 2172 pill, as it goes to show that everyone really does react differently, despite the nay sayers calling it a placebo by comparison to Watson's older products. Please...

I have been taking Xarelto approx. one month for AFib. Taking this drug terrifies me! I also have a bad case of psoriasis.
