My Dr. prescribed Nystatin, Diphhen, Rulox, Lido for a sore throat that has lingered for three months. The directions are to swish and swallow 15mls every 8 hours. I get the numbness described in your thread, but only for about 10 minutes. It does not mention not eating before/after dosage, however, I have chronic constipation and wondered if it is from this compound? ## Hi Macrooster, Sorry to hear about your throat. How has it been feeling since the timing of your post? According to NIH.gov, constipation is indeed listed as a side effect of Diphen (Diphenhydramine). I didn't find this side effect listed under any of the other ingredients you mentioned, but hopefully this will help shed some light on what might've been causing your chronic constipation.

I have just been prescribed Lamasil by my podiatrist. When looking online to see the detailed side effects and drug interactions of Lamisil, Metotoprol was listed as an interacting medicine. How will Metotoprol interact with my taking Lamasil? It does not say what the interaction is, but since Metotoprol is a beta blocker, I am concerned before I start taking the Lamasil. I want to start taking the oral Lamasil to get rid of a pretty bad nail infection. Thank you. ## According to FDA studies, Lamisil could increase the effect of Metoprolol, which may cause your blood pressure and heart rate to drop too low. It isn't that they usually can't be taken, together, but your doctor should be monitoring your closely, and may have to adjust your dosages accordingly. Other side effects ma...

I have been taking terbinafine for about 37 days now. I also had my gallbladder removed on April 8th of this year. My eating habits are relatively the same, yet I have gained 13 pounds in a month. I guess my question is did the medication make me gain weight or is it because I have no gall bladder? I also have extreme belly bloating now that I'm very unhappy about. ## Hello, Christine! How are you? No, it hasn't been known to cause weight gain according to the FDA reports, but it has been known to cause the bloating.
