I am suffering with sensitive tongue for a month now and unable to take chilly at all. I take glimisave m3 and zyrol m1 morning and evening respectively. I also take Prednisone 5mg morning and evening. Additionally I take multivitamin and calcium. Wondering what is causing sensitive tongue! I am getting very worried about my diet.

I usually have my prescriptions filled at Walgreens but recently switched to express scripts. I have noticed that the numbers on my pills have changed from:Oval BLUE TABLET SIDE 1: AHI 4 to OVAL BLUE Tablet Marking: RDY/3 22. Does this mean the express script Glimepiride isn’t as good/or will have a different effect on me? ## No, it just means it has been manufactured by a different pharmaceutical company. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, flatulence, stomach pain, and diarrhea. How are you doing on the new one? Has there been any change?
