What Is Alive

I feel that the movement that is in my eye after the jetrea injection has a live parasite which they didn't tell me. I did hear someone say, I wouldn't say that it was live. ## Hello, Betty! How are you doing? No, there is no parasite or anything in it. However, if you are having an odd sensation in your eye, you should consult your doctor to have it checked out. Are there any other questions or concerns?

I found a pastel pink "ALIVE" pill, oblong in shape, in my "Centrum Silver" bottle. No other markings on the pill, just "ALIVE" in all caps. Is it the "Alive" nutritional supplement? ## I've tried search several times now for an image of them, but I haven't been able to find one. My guess would be that it is, because it is common for one plant to manufacture and package several similar products and they are both supplements. Alive is made by Nature's Way, so my suggestion would be to contact them and ask. They have a toll free number you can call, 800-962-8873 Learn more dietary supplement details here. Can you post back and let me know what you find out?

20 years ago I was blacking out over a period of time so went to the ER. Had BP of 21/14. Literally. How common is this? I was awake and they asked me why I was still alive. I still wonder to this day. Took me 60 days to get back to normal. Docs concluded allergy. Should I be dead? ## @klcbva, This is honestly the first time I've ever heard of anyone having a blood pressure THAT low (21/41). So it's probably not very common at all and it's no wonder you were blacking out on a regular basis because of it... Information from the mayoclinic suggests that big plunges in blood pressure due to allergic reactions can be life threatening. But as to how close you may have been to death, I haven't found any specific details mentioning exact figures. Although my guess is that you w...

So far I've had 5 humira injections (40 mg every two weeks) and unfortunately my great fatigue, aches and pains in bones and muscles in the meantime only increased. Have been on methotrexate, which only somewhat reduced my wrist swelling, ever since February. The combination now seems to be doing even less. Any similar experiences or suggestions? Thanks Sunad ## My best friend just had her right lung removed following a diagnosis of non-small cell cancer. She was prescribed Humira for her Crohn's Disease. When she was diagnosed, her Oncologist had her discontinue Humira IMMEDIATELY. I hope you can find another treatment. Lymphoma is one of the side effects of this drug. We are lucky she is alive. Best of luck. ## Humira contains the active ingredient Adalimumab and extremity pai...

what do I do about her taking 25 2 mg xanax? ## If she's taking that many Xanax she needs medical help immediately. That dosage is so dangerously High I'm surprised she's still alive. She should only be taking one or two of those Annex 2 milligram pills. Sounds like she's an addict and doesn't want to admit it. Don't stop on your own always get medical attention immediately for a dosage that high of Xanax. If you take that many 2 milligram Xanax a day I can barely believe that you could even talk without stuttering walk without falling obviously she is highly addicted. She is also to the point where she has taken so many of them that they are not helping anymore they are destroying her body her brain all her organs please seek medical attention immediately this i...

I have been on Lisinopril for 6 months. I told my doctor I am allergic as I broke out in a serious rash. A dermotologist gave me Bethamensone to put on rash and I broke out in a chronic rash. A new dermotologist gave me Cephelexin and Muroprocin (both ate me alive). I then was placed on Prednisone (30 pills). I feel better but notice that I still have spots of rashes here and there. I'm looking for a new HBP medicine. I was suggested Benicar. Any help? ## After being on Lisinopril for 4 months I had enough. The coughing and sharp pain in my head no more. Its not worth taking a med that makes you feel so bad there are other meds to take in replacement of Lisinopril. ## Unfortunately, coughing and headaches are normal side effects of most blood pressure medications. It will be a matte...

What side effects have other patients reported while taking Fludrocortisone? ## I have POTS and I faint all the time. I was put on this med before and it made me very nervous. Now I am trying again and am gaining weight and again very agitated. ## I do the same thing. Can you try lowering the dose? I've found with a lower dose I still get the benefits but I don't get agitated. I hate that. Good luck. ## Do not change your dose without first checking with your doctor. I have Addisons disease and have taken florinef and cortef for 54 years, it's what keeps me alive. I have been severely ill and as a result have been hospitalized as a result of an imbalance in my florinef. Be very careful, as this is a potent drug. ## I have Addisons and Fludrocortisone made my blood pressure r...

If a person were to take 18 hydrocodone 5-325 what would happen to them/ Is that a fatal dose or would they be left alive with liver damage? ## All that Tylenol or aspirin, if it was a combo drug, might mess up your kidneys and liver but as long as you are not a first timer, that is to say opiate naive, 90 mgs of Hydrocodone probably won't kill you. My dosage as a cancer patient is the equivalent of 135 mgs Hydrocodone, at 90 mgs of Oxycodone every 4 hrs. Believe me I'd rather be cancer free than all drugged up. I'm in so much pain I can't even get a buzz, damnit . . . Q ## The 325 listed in the 5-325 designates that each tablet contains 325mgs of Acetaminophen and taking 18 of them would equal 5,850mgs in a day and that could be a fatal amount. Acetaminophen can be fata...

It is a 1mg xanax ## What are they for what happens if u take 5 of them ## Rizla (# 1 Why not try the entire bottle and write us back if still alive! ## Hello, Unfortunately I don't think this is accurate. My reason for believing that is because the FDA requires that all controlled medication have an imprint so that it can be identifiable for multiple reasons one being a safety precaution in the event of an overdose. This medication is a prescription only which means it should have an imprint on at least one side of the medication. This means that the pills you have are either not what you believe them to be or are illegal knockoffs. If you have a prescription for this medication I highly encourage you to discuss the legitimacy of these pills with your doctor and pharmacist as they ...

peach color circle and found it in a Alive bottle... it was near the bottom of the bottle... need to knowwhat it is... looks like a perscription pill... ## It's a generic acid reducer pill. ## That is correct, Dr. Reddy's Laboratories list it as containing 150mgs of Ranitidine, which is a generic for Zantac. It is is used to treat, or prevent conditions, such as heartburn, ulcers, and gastritis. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, flatulence, stomach pain, and diarrhea. NDC code: 55111-404 It is available over the counter and by prescription. Is there anything else I can help with?
