Carvedilol Forums

I take Carvedilol which states that the mfg. is "ZYDU". What is the correct name of this manufacturer and where are they located? ## Zydus Pharmaceuticals Their U.S. headquarters is in Pennington, New Jersey, but they do also have facilities in India. However, regardless of where a medication is manufactured, if it is available to be prescribed in the U.S., then it has met the same strict FDA manufacturing, safety, and efficacy standards as all other prescription medications. Carvedilol may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension. Ref: Carvedilol Information Is there anything else I can help with?

I refilled my rx for Carvedilol recently. It came in a bubble pack marked RX CARVEDILOL, CARCA-6.25. The pills are pink, round, and flat. One side is scored with Intas, the other side has C5 printed on it. It supposed to be a sunset yellow color, not what I was expecting (I've taken the yellow pills for 2 years). ## Since Carvedilol is a generic medication, it is manufactured by several different companies, and each company's product may look different, be sized differently, depending on the precise formula they use during manufacturing. There is no uniform way they all have to make them look. However, if you received it from a legitimate pharmacy, as a refill, then there is no reason to worry. Have you tried taking it, yet? The FDA lists the typical side effects of Carvedilol a...

I took a double dose of my Carvedilol 3.125mg and my Atorvastatin 20mg by accident and need to know if this could possibly hurt me as I have congestive heart failure? ## I accidentally took my Carvederol Bllod Pressure medicine at 9 pm and 11 pm can that hurt me ## @Sue & Debbie, Sorry to hear about the mishap. I noticed that it's been several weeks since the timing of this incident... How are you two feeling at the moment? Did either of you ever end up experiencing any unusual side effects or had to go to the emergency room? Generally in cases like this, the best thing to do is contact your doctor immediately and/or poison control just to be on the safe side. For your own peace of mind, their hotline # is 1-800-222-1222. My theory is that if this was only a one time occurrence ...

prazopress xl 2.5 is used for ? ## indications of the drug prazzopress ## Prozopress XL 2.5 is used for the treatment? ## My Doctor has prescribed to take 1/2 tab of Prazopress when BP shoots around 200/115 and 1/4 when it touches 180/105. My question is: Is it safe to take frequently with the rising of BP or should the use of Prazopress be restrained and taken some other medicine and only in acute cases this medicine be taken. In winter my BP shoots even upto 215/120. Can I take Prazopress-2 whenever BP crosses 200/110 1/4 to 1/2 tab as required. Will it be safe. There is no harm in using this medicine? ## I am a BP patient since 20 yrs, and I have taking carvedilol 6.5mg and prazopress xl2.5mg in the morning and amlodipne 5mg at night my blood pressure is 150/97 need change medicine

Found these white oblong pills in my son's room. It had G on one side and 154 on the other and I cannot find any information on that pill. Any help would be great. ## White, oval, g imprint on one side and 154 imprint on other, pill, ## @Kev, From what I could gather, there are at least three different drug manufacturers who use a capital G on one side of their tablets (Greenstone Ltd., Global / Impax Pharmaceuticals & Guardian Drug Company). Each of their G's look slightly different. So if you are able to determine which G matches your pill, we would at least be able to tell who the manufacturer is, and possibly take it from there... That's just one idea anyways. You may be able to search each manufacturer's product page or google their unique logos for more specifi...

E20 on one side, white oblong pill shipped from India ## With the description provided I haven't been able to locate a match in any of the drug databases. I'm assuming that this is because the pill is manufactured in India, where as they do not regulate their drugs the same way the FDA does here in the U.S.; so finding information on it is very difficult unless you're based in India. Did you order this online not knowing what it was? Maybe you can contact the company that you ordered it from for a confirmation of your order. Aside from double checking to make sure you typed the correct marking, the next best option I can recommend is taking the pill over to your local pharmacy and ask them about testing for the pills ingredients; and whether or not it's something they ar...

Flew off the bed one morning, heart pounding, grabbed my jaw which felt hard as a rock. My left arm hurting and tingling with clammy hands. Saw one dr, had an ekg, all normal. She said it seemed like acid reflux because i would burp and the pressure on my chest would subside. Couple of days later I saw another dr because of the same issue but it lasted longer this time. He sends me to the er, told me i had a uti and was dehydrated. Sent me home one week later and my heart rate was fast again. Saw a cardiologist who prescribed carvedilol 6.25mg twice daily. Did an echo, stress, holt monitor for 24 hours. Test came back that my heart is doing what it needs to do and that i have a healthy strong heart. Only thing was holt showed an extra beat.

I found this pill in my living room. It has 255 printed on the right side, and what looks like an upside down 1 on the left side. The back is black. It looks just like Butalb (MIA 106), which I take for headaches, but the imprint is totally different. Any ideas? Thanks. ## Hi Juno, Carvedilol 6.25mg made by Solco Healthcare is the closest match I've seen here. This particular tablet is white and oval shaped with the number 255 on one side and blank on the back. For verification, it carries a National Drug Code of 43547-255-10. I wish I could be of more help, but as a last resort it may be best to take this tablet into your local pharmacy and/or have its contents analyzed by a lab. I do find it strange that specific details relating to your pill description are no where to be found. ...

On Carvedilol and was on Amlodipine for years. Blood pressure was increasing lately, so Dr changed Amlodipine to 10 mg. This caused flushing in face, ankles swelling, etc. Then took off Amlodipine completely and added Lisinopril. Have backache, nervousness, darkened urine, and dizzy on this. What is the safest blood pressure medicine to use? I’m sensitive to most medications... ## All blood pressure medication has side effects. What works for me may not work for you. There are so many of these meds it's really hit and miss till you find the right meds. I've been on about 8 different ones over the past 7 years and each of them has good and bad. Lisinopril I was on for 4 years, worked ok...good luck. ## Carl is correct, there is really no "safe" medication, they all ...

my husband is taking both triamt/hctz and carvedilol but do not know if he should be on both or if one was prescribed to replace the other think the last one he got a prescription for was carvedilol---could this have been to replace the triamt/hctz ## Has he asked his doctor? The Carvedilol is in a different class of medications and it is very common for several to be prescribed, if someone's blood pressure or cardiac condition isn't quite under control with their existing medication regimen. Thus, it is hard for anyone else to know the answer and he does need to check with is doctor to be sure. ## Am on both medications most often both are prescribed when one is not efficient to bring down your blood pressure. Carvedilol is a beta and alpha blocker and triamterene HCTZ is a diu...

Is it safe to take Carvedilol 25mg if the discard date was three months ago? Will they still be effective? ## They do not become dangerous, but they may have lost some efficacy, so it would be best to speak to your doctor about obtaining a new supply. The FDA lists this medication as possibly causing side effects, such as nausea, headache, dizziness, hypotension, and increased urination. How does this medication work for you? When I was taking it, I suffered a severe worsening of my Raynaud's Syndrome/Disease.... I listed both, because what the FDA is calling it at any given time is subject to change.

Carvedilol is prescribed by US doctors, but I would like to know if there's an Indian medicine equal to this US version? ## From what I could gather, there's an Indian brand of Carvedilol that goes by the name "Caditone". This medication is reportedly manufactured by a company called Kopran ltd. based out of Mumbai, India. There is also a brand called Carviflo made by Ajanta, out of India. If I come across any other brand or generic versions I'll be sure to post back. Until then, I hope these two options will suffice. Best of luck to you!
