viibryd to paxil
Do I need to wean off Viibryd if I only took for 2 weeks? My anxiety is through the roof and I'd rather just go back to Paxil and deal with the weight gain. Can I just switch back without issues or do I need to taper down the 20 mg of Viibryd like when I started it? ## I need to know the same thing been on Viibryd 3 weeks Panic is intense can’t handle it I think I felt better on paxil

Big Pharma's Lockdown On Legitimate Chronic Pain Patients
Is narcotic pain medicine becoming a thing of the past? Why are doctors across America phasing out the practice of prescribing effective pain medication? Will big pharmaceutical companies ever truly understand what it's like to face the other side of the coin? Lately there's been a musty scent in the air surrounding the use of prescribed narcotic pain medication. Many doctors appear to be running scared as the DEA scours through fields of medical records, inspecting prescribing pads like a mouse scavenges for food in a dimly lit cellar. Should the day come when doctors recommend Ibuprofen to a feeble man who's been involved in a terrible car accident (breaking several bones / requiring extensive surgery), is this doctor at risk of malpractice when there are more effective op...

Zinbryta (daclizumab)
My husband spent seven weeks in the hospital, seriously ill. A major contributing factor is believed to be the Zinbryta he took for his M.S. Might anyone else have experienced major issues with Zinbryta? ## It is possible, it has actually been removed from the market, via a voluntary manufacturer withdrawal, due to the high number of adverse events that were occurring among those taking it. They do not explain exactly what all was included in the adverse events, so unfortunately, I cannot provide you with more information. However, if his doctors think it was due to the medication, then there is a very good chance that it did cause his illness. Zinbryta Recall Click here. How is he doing, now? ## Much better, thank you, but it was touch and go for a long time, and there is some residual...

i just got this prescribed to me as antibioitic in emergency room in german hospital in dusseldorf. i can't find it on PDR so i'm worried. the box says it comes from Kalamazoo USA but neither the name above or other name Sobline appears anywhere ## What is the color of the powder inside of the Clindamycin DAN5708, the gray & pink capsule. ## The name should not be run together, it is Clindamycin Hydrochloride, which might be why you were unable to find it. It is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of bacterial infections.

sleepasil side effects
I've been taking sleepasil for quite a while now and have been experiencing several possible side effects that may contributed by the drug. My major concern is what is in the drug. Yes it is BFAD approved but i cannot find its make up. Thanks. ## Sleepasil is actually a supplement claimed to help with sleep issues. It contains: Melatonin, Chamomile, Wild JuJube Seed Extract, Valerian Root, Hops, Scullcap, Passion Flower, Calcium and Magnesium. That said, since this is a supplement, side effects are not known, they have not been studied. What exactly have you been experiencing?

watson 15/30
small round white watson on one side 15/30 on other side ## birth control pill, compare to levora. ## Yes, it contains the same active ingredients, it is just a generic for it. It is used to treat hormonal issues in women, and to prevent pregnancy. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, irritability, mood changes, spotting, and weight changes. Please do not use combination hormonal contraceptives, if you are over 40 and a smoker, due to the increased risk of potentially deadly blood clots. Is there anything I can help with?

chymoral forte pediatric dose
What should be the recommended pediatric dosage of chymoral forte, for a 5 year old boy weighing 16 kg? ## What is the dose of chymoral for the boy five and half years old ## Hello, According to the manufacturer the dosage is going to be based upon the severity of the symptoms, age, weight and physical condition. Since the manufacturer does not specify a recommended dosage it would be best to consult your child's pediatrician to get proper guidance on what the appropriate dosage would be and if they believe that this is the right medication to be using. I hope this helps.

pill, white, not scored, no writing, large,round
pill, white, not scored, no writing, large, round ## i received approx dime size round white pill scored no writing thats supposed to be soma did i get ripped off? ## If a tablet has no markings, then it is not any type of legal U.S. prescription medication. The FDA requires that they all have unique markings on them to enable their identification in case of emergency. By looking up the markings on a tablet it can be discovered what the tablet contains, what the dosage is, and what company manufactured it. If there are no markings on it, then it is most likely an over the counter product of some type, however, there is also a small chance that it might be a foreign medication, and if that is the case, there is no way of being certain what the tablets contain. *Soma contains the active i...
