I just started my Viibryd trial pack. I'm in the 5th day. I wouldn't call myself seriously depressed, but my doctor gave me this because Wellbutrin was giving me a headache daily. I do not have a prescription yet. My question is: Why go to a dose of 40mg. if you feel good on 20 or 10mg.? I could see going higher if less isn't doing it for you. What's the normal dose? ## I'll add to my own post. I'm now about 2 weeks into the trial pack. I did not go up to the 20mg., but broke them in half. I will not up it until I need to. I called my Dr. and asked for a 90 day script for the 20mg, which I will break in half. I do get a slight headache sometimes. I take Imitrex and it takes it away. I've been fooling around with the time I take it. I'm now taking it with ...

I have been taking 1,500mg of MSM in the morning and 1,500mg in the afternoon for the past two weeks. I was wondering if I could take 3,000 or 4,000mg in the morning and the same in the afternoon. I am taking it for psoriasis. It has helped some with joint pain, but not at all for my skin. Has anyone bumped the dosage up to 6,000mg or 8,000mg in divided dosage daily? ## MSM is actually just a nutritional supplement and I have never heard of it actually helping with any type of skin issues, though it is naturally present in joints and supplementing it can help with such problems, for some people. That said, the general maximum recommended daily amount is 4.000mgs in equal divided daily doses. Have you consulted your doctor about how much you should use?

i was on 40mg of lexapro. they put me back to 20mg. they said 20mg is the max/ i took it for 1 yr already ## I was at one point on 20 mg of lexapro wich is the highest dose available. I was going thru a clinical depression and it also helped with nerve pain....it did wonders for me. I went thru a rough time because of spine surgery. Did your Dr make you take two 20 mg pills? Something does not sound right about that?! That is an extreme dose. ## Yes, that is correct, 20mgs is supposed to be the maximum prescribed dose, because studies haven't shown any additional benefits when it's taken in higher amounts, but doing so could cause more severe risks, and side effects. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Lexapro as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, m...

What is the normal dosage for a person weighing 114 pounds? I was given a prescription for 960 twice daily for 10 days. ## Hi Lee, Unfortunately there aren't any dosing instructions for this medication that are based on someone's weight. Usually, your doctor or pharmacist is the one who provides you with dosing instructions upon writing/receiving your prescription. He/she prescribed you a certain dosage based on their evaluation of you, your medical records, and other individual factors. So if something doesn't seem right about it, then you really need to go discuss this with your doctor before moving forward with treatment.

MY DR PRESCRIBED ME THE 2.5mg xanax and while in research for my college for a project on narcotics and the effect they have on the younger nation i found out that they are only 1mg is this something i should be worried about thank you in ahead of time shy guy ## Are you sure your doctor didn't prescribe you .025mg? I don't believe xanax comes in 2.5mg. I believe xanax comes in .025mg, .05mg 1mg and 2mg. Extended xanax can be 1, 2 and 3mg However I am not a doctor so this is only my opinion...What I do feel comfortable telling you is call your doctor ASAP, because if I am right, the pharmacist may have given you the wrong dose, ## I think , If you are starting out on Xanax, it should be a 0.25 Mg I thought a 2 Mg bar was the biggest they make. I could be wrong about that. Try to...

When prescribed most common drugs you either are given one tablet 3 times a day or one tablet 4 times a day to take . I was told that tablets are taken on a 12 hour cycle if so that would mean one tablet 3 times a day would be one every 4 hours (3 x 4 =12) so one 4 times a day would be one every 3 hours (4 x 3 = 12) IS THIS CORRECT. Thank you ## what is the dosage of daflon 500 mg? is it twice a day? ## Should I take 2 tablets at a time or 4? ## Each pill is 3MG. I was told to take 4 pills a day. So, should take all 4 together , 2 and 2. I am talking about taking Stromectol 3 MG ## I was in the DR in September. Started itching end of October. Still itching.

Can i take a 2 mg bar and half or whole at the same time? i feel nothing from the 2 mg bar! ## What are you expecting to feel from it? The FDA classifies this medication as a benzodiazepine, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and irritability. But, it really doesn't cause a high or anything in most people that take it. It should have an effect similar to sedation. And no, in the regular release, 2mg is the maximum dose recommended, at once. However, if it isn't working for you, at all, you should speak to your doctor, because there is a 3mg time released one that you can try. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Yeah but you probably wouldn't feel the 3 mg XR either. Hey Verwon you never answe...

my son, aged 27 yrs has been diagnosed with gqwtric ulcerws. he has been pr3escribed ampoxillin 1000mg , claribid500 mg , protodac and pan40 (twice daily) for 14 days. after 10 days,he has been shoqing signs of improvement. should the medicines be continued for another week? will he require antibiotics also? after 14 days, he is still having pain , with less intensity. ## The Claribid contains Clarithromycin, so it and the Amoxicillin are antibiotics. Learn more Clarithromycin details here. Learn more Amoxicillin details here. Learn more Pan 40 details here. As to how long he should continue, he needs to talk to his doctor about it. In some cases, very severe ulcers may require a longer treatment duration. Are there any other questions or comments?

I am taking 7.5 mg of mobic once a day and my dr. increased the dosage to 15mg. once a day. Wouldn't it be better to take 1 7.5mg in the a.m. and another 7.5mg in the early evening ? ## My question is the same as Jan's. Can I take 7.5 mg bid for better relief and coverage. I take 15 mg in am and then by night time, the pain is severe again and I cannot sleep. ## yes you can take 1 7.5 in the am and one in the pm. In doing so you will be able to keep the med in your system and it will work threw out the day versus it only helping for part of the day. Also it takes up to three week for a med to be in you system well enough to help you actually start to feel the full effects. ## It really depends on what works for you, I split up most of my medications and take them more than once ...

I had a total thyroidectomy a little over a year ago followed by radioactive iodine just to be sure it was all dead and gone. Before my thyroid cancer I was in pretty good shape as I am a college athlete. Since the surgery I have gained 20 to 30 pounds. People said once I got my tsh levels right I would lose the weight but I only stopped gaining, not losing. My doctor sais they are where they need to be and I am done going up but I do not feel much better than I did before. I still have the fatigue, constipation, extreme heartburn, and brain fog. Is this permanent or are my levels really off and just not showing? HELP! I'm still in college and my grades are really taking a hit from all this! ## Well, you did not say what dosage you were on and this site is not medical professionals,...

Same as above how many mg Percocet are usually taken for pain relief.What is a high dose and how often are 20 mg taken ## The highest available dose of Percocet, according to the FDA website, contains 10mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, so there is no 20mg dosage available in the U.S. Were you referring to just Oxycontin tablets? They are available in a 20mg dosage, but do not include the Acetaminophen and they're in a time released formulation. It is classified as a narcotic analgesic, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. As to how much is taken, that may differ from person to person, depending on what dose best controls their pain and what dosage their doct...
