small pink round pill with the number 33 on it ## If the only imprint on it, is the number 33, then It does not appear to be a prescription med, it is probably something over the counter. ## Actually, this is an over the counter medication called Diphenhydramine or generic Benadryl. It is an antihistimine used for allergies, itchy eyes, hives, nausea and other things. Side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, headache, among others. ## That's what I figured, I was in a lot of pain when I replied, so I just wasn't up to searching a ton of databases to try and find it. Thanks nenene! ## Those pink ones and some of the little round red ones now stick in my mind as over the counter benadryl and over the counter sudafed. ## See, I am always thinking of a lot that aren't, so I u...

Has anyone had Botox injections for eye twiching? I have and they did not use numbing while injecting into my eye lids and surrounding eyes. I was wondering why they can not numb the area? ## I have. I don't know why they can use anything to numb it. But the pain is worth making the eye twitch stop. I'd tried everything: calcium, magnesium, potassium, saw a neurologist. Only the shots worked. ## The doctor told me that numbing would hurt worse than the shot. So I just pinch myself and don't look. I've had to get the shots every 5. -6 months for a year and a half because the eye twitch comes back. We are hoping eventually the muscle will stop on it's own. I took topirimate for a few months at a low dose a couple years ago. Then I stopped ## I don't know if my insu...

I believe the doctor told me I could use Sudafed and Bisoprolol-HTZ 5.25mgbloodpressure med)together...Is this correct..and are there side effects? ## Hi Edward, From what I could gather, there are no drug interactions listed between Sudafed (Pseudoephedrine) and Bisoprolol + Hydrochlorothiazide, so they should be safe to use together. However it is important to note that all prescription drugs do carry a risk for side effects. Some common side effects of Bisoprolol + Hydrochlorothiazide include: problems with vision, eye pain, stomach pain, leg pain, weight gain, swelling, irregular heartbeat, numbness, weakness, and dry mouth. Common side effects of Sudafed include: insomnia, headache, nausea, vomiting, weakness, irregular heartbeat, challenges with breathing, and abdominal pain. This...

I think they are selling Visine LR on the internet, but it is very expensive. It is the only gtts that work for me. Have been searching for it for two months. Some of the blogs here have helped with suggestions. ## Hi Neil, Thanks for the heads up. I've also heard about some remaining stocks of Visine LR being available online, but are being sold for much more than most individuals are willing to pay.

I got hit on the bridge of my nose with a football on 29 Aug. After 4 days I started experiencing discomfort and redness in my right eye and was prescribed the above eye drops. I've been told to use it 6 times a day for three days and to continue reducing the number of times by one every three days. Is it safe to use as I still feel uncomfortable. I also see white flashes occasionally especially when I look down with my eyes. I'm worried. Please advise if there's a problem with my retina or cornea and what should I do.

Recently I was prescribed Lyrica for nerve pain after fracturing my C5 vertebrae. The medicine was taken as prescribed by my physician. After taking said medication for two weeks, I began experiencing unusual effects pertaining to my vision. To describe this visual side-effect i would say I lost a percentage of my eye sight. A simple comparison would be as if you had been flashed in your eyes by a camera. Only there was no camera flash... This occurred arbitrarily and without warning. I contacted my physician and was advised to discontinue use. Anyone else? ## There are actually a number of Lyrica threads on here pertaining to its side effects. I think you may find the one's below helpful in that regard; as others have complained about double vision, dry eyes, dizziness, etc: /Discu...

Came across a yellowish brown pill with oc on one side and 40 on the other. I was thinking it might be oxys but the number 4 caught my eye. Its closed off at the top otger oxys I came across always had a open 4. The 4 looks just like the one used here 4. They are from the Philippines that much I know. ## Hello bongomatix, From what I could gather, it looks like you are right about the legitimate 40mg Oxycontin having an "open ended 4" on them. The pill you came across seems to fit every other aspect of the description of a 40mg Oxycontin. But on top of that, with it being from the Philippines I have a good hunch that it's probably counterfeit/fake, since its real manufacturer is US based. Hopefully you didn't spend too much money on it, because legitimate manufacturers d...

I would like s discount because my prescriptions are over $500 ## Hello, Scooter! How are you? There is an assistance program for Nevanac, though I don't know what the qualifications are, but you can call them for more information at 800-222-8103. You can use the same number for information on Vigamox. Since they are manufactured by the same company. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including eye irritation, tearing and redness. Is there anything else I can help with?

Will this be helpful for shoulder back and neck pain I get shots for all areas but they only take some of the pain away Biofreeze helps a little but only lasts a few hours If I put it on during the night I have to get up and wash my hands so they don’t go numb or I rub my eyes during the night Will this formula help my pain longer at night and during the day ## This is only a topical cream, so it really depends on what is causing your pain. It may not help with all types of pain. The FDA warns that it may cause side effects, such as skin redness, irritation, itching, and flaking. Have you tried it, yet? If so, how is it working for you?
