I have been taking R Cinex Rifampin And Isoniazid Capsule U P S since last 67 days but I missed 1day dose,which doctor prescribe me for 180 day..can any one help me ..what should i do? shall I continue or stop the course or restart from day 1 ## What has your doctor advised? In this case, I have read where some doctors tell people to start over completely, if they miss a dosage, but other cases where just missing one doesn't seem to matter, so I am not really sure which to go by. I think the best thing you can do is ask your doctor how to proceed from here and, in the future, be careful not to miss any doses. ## I am suffering frm tb since last 3 months i am taking r cinex 600.but one day i have taken the double dose of rcinex as per confusion been taken or not .later i came to know...

I was prescribed r cinex along with b12 capsule for tb in my lymph node near neck. On the third day after using r cinex, I had severe itching on my legs and had dry rash near inner thighs. I never experienced any rashes so this freaked me out. I used antifungal cream and rash was curer after a week. But itching continued till 3rd week of using r cinex. After a month I felt cold on the ball of right foot along with a throbbing sensation. After two months, I was scared of all the symptoms, so I checked my HB count and sugar levels. My HB count dropped from 11 to 10 and my sugar level was 148 at 2hrs after meal. I was shattered as I m just 29yrs old the reading puts me at prediabetic. I have stopped the medicine as I felt fine by then. But then I started having pins and needles in my hands...

I am taking 3 caps a day of Dicloxacill 500 mg.also Rifampin 300mg twice a day and Lactinex 3 times a day, one of them causes headaches so what is safe to take for the headache ## Hi, Jim! Sorry about the headaches. Are you taking the Rifampin for TB? If so, then what you can safely take is something that you'll most likely need to check with your doctor. Your medical history and the severity of your condition can all be factors. Learn more Dicloxacillin details here and you can learn more Rifampin details here and there are more Lactinex details here. Have you talked to your doctor about it yet? Many common things, such as Tylenol, have the potential to cause liver damage, so that may be something that you can't risk.
