Can taking debendox result in humans developing behavioural disorders that are cyclic in the way they present.my daughter (35yrs old now) can appear quite normal for weeks at a time then she will exhibit borderline pshchotic behaviour then after a few days she will be OK again. ## This contains Pyridoxine and Doxylamine, it isn't used in the U.S., so I have to admit my information on it is limited. Her symptoms, however, sound similar to those of bipolar disorder. Learn more Bipolar disorder details here. Have you consulted a doctor? ## I took debendox when pregnant with my noiw 33 year old daughter. She has problems emotionally but is very bright. I have friends who also took this drug and their children have the same problems. Its almost like they dont grow up and over react to ma...

I got zopiclone 7.5mg. They are packaged in strips stating zop 7.5mg. The tabs are round, blue, scored on one side, with no markings. They do work, but i'm a bit concerned as to whether or not they are safe. Can anyone enlighten me on this one? ## If they are Hab pharmaceutical ones from India they are the weakest of any zopiclone and believe me ive tried well over 15 brands! The confusing thing is when you look at their website the tablets are rugby shaped not round an saucer-like? I have a feeling they are not legitimate!!!! ## I brought zopiclone 7,5mg the blue round from India, are these safe and can I cut them down ## Hab zopiclone are fine... Not rugby shaped at all. Mine are round, blue and have a groove on one side. ## I got the same there from india, I been taking them, bec...

Does anyone use Zolpiderm (Zolpidem) and are they ok? Thanks for any feedback. ## I have used for appx 4 years, and it often did not help. The latest formula, is doing so much better, and a, getting at least 6 hours of good deep sleep, and very little grogginess. ## Thanks Diana how many do you take at night... ## I used Zolpidem with no side effects but I'm having a problem getting my RX refilled by my Doctor due to having another pain med. ## One 10 mg. appx 30 minutes before I go to sleep. The only other med I am on is Valium and take 10 mg 2x a day, but try not to take later at night as seems to not work well with the zolpidem. ## Hi is zolpidem not Valium?.... I thought they were sleeping tablets.... Tia ## Zolpidem or zolpidem tartrate is the generic name of Ambien. If your he...

My toxicology test is showing a benzodiazepene when all I'm taking is Melatonin? I don't get it, you can get melatonin over the counter since it's a natural supplement. ## @SaviorFaire, I find this occurrence to be very unusual considering that melatonin is completely unrelated and would even go so far as question if anyone might've had the opportunity or a reason to try and pollute your sample before the tox report? Given the circumstances it may be a good idea to request a re-evaluation via Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to achieve what I'd imagine to be the most accurate results. If the GC-MS proves otherwise, then it should be a wake up call to the inefficiency of standard toxicology procedures. Please keep us posted if everything gets straightened ...

This brand does not work at all....Have taken ambien generic all along with no problem. Until this brand...Kinney's is mandated to dispense this brand... Does not work. Am taking 2-3 a night to sleep... Never had to before. It's own chemical composition by torrent does not work. Sucks. ## So just curious bc as a nurse I know these different generics seem to work differently on different ppl. Are u male? Younger? Older? I am 5'6/160lb/47yo/f & I tried 10mg Teva brand and it was a sleepless nightmare! Mylan 10mg worked ok. But surprisingly Torrent worked fine for me. I was surprised bc I'd read so many mixed reviews on that brand. But I have found that no matter what I use I have to take 3-6mg melatonin about an hr b4 & make sure the lights are lower so it can work...

I filled a prescription for 30 Zoplicone tablets from HAB pharmaceuticals. Arrived today. No package, just 3 small blister containers. Paid £20 in postage. They are bright blue and I now feel nervous about taking them. Can anyone let me know if they have taken these tablets, and importantly are they genuine? ## Hello, Mabel! How are you? Are there any markings on the tablets? How about on the blister packaging? ## Hi Verwon, They did not come in a box, however the markings on the bubble pack are:Mfg Lic.No KD-296 B.No.330-04MFG.AUG2013 exp.JULY 2016 M.R.Ps.38.00 10 TABS.

I filled my prescription for Zopiclone 7.5 mg and received white concave tablets with Z on one side and 7.5 on the other side. On the packaging it says Zopishine / Zopiclone and that it's manufactured by HAB laboratory in India. Does anyone know if this is a good brand of the medication, and are they safe to take as directed? ## Can anybody give me any feedback on zopishine 7.5 manufacturing in India Has anyone tried them? ## I have received the same. Not used yet but have cut one in half and they have the characteristic bitter taste of Zopiclone. Have you taken any of your yet,? ## I got mine today, says the same thing zopishine zopiclone. I’m going to cut one in half and take it, theory being, it’s then a 3.75, will update you soon. ## I have tried and think are about ...

Is anyone retaking Chartwell Flurazepam and getting the same results as they had with Mylan? It did not work for me. I'm so depressed about it after being so happy that it is back on the market. Thoughts?

I was prescribed a 3mg Lunesta and it worked very well for its purpose. One of the listed side effects is a bad taste, and yes I did experience that. What I am wondering is if anybody knows how long that's supposed to last - I had a glass of water when I woke up the next morning and the taste was awful! Should it go away soon? ## i had the same result- i couldn't drink anything due to the foul taste in my mouth-i gave up after one tab!! snf no one seems to be able to give me answers. help!! ## I h ad a bad taste in my mouth too but,it wore off by mid morning.I kept taking Lunesta though because it worked so well. ## The bad taste is usually caused by the dry mouth that many meds cause as a side effect, dry mouth tends to make your taste buds hyper sensitive. ## I have been takin...

I've got some apparent blue Zopiclone 7.5 mg tabs with no markings whatsoever and supposedly made by HAB Pharmaceuticals Ltd in India. Also says Zopisign on blister pack. I know that there are ones called Zopishine but mine defo say Zopisign. They do have the nasty metallic taste though but I'm guessing that could be easily replicated by forgeries. Anyone had the same tabs? Peace ## These are the better ones they are smaller and have zopiclone taste ## Zopishine are fine. 10mg are better but have to fill prescription online ## I have been taking these since there has been a shortage of Zopiclone 7.5 and 3.5. I done a little research as I am also on painkillers. They are very good and I have been sleeping well. These are small white pills no markings. The also come as blue tablet...

Info needed. Does anyone know if Ambien (Zolpidem) 10 mg from Mexico comes in a small 1/4" round, lightish orange color tablet (white inside). Scorned on one side and unmarked on the other side? Does anyone know if there is a Mexican pill identifier website? How can I tell if they are real or is Zolpidem 10mg even made like that? Is anyone familiar with these or have taken them ok? ## Unfortunately, when you order from a foreign sources, this is one of the hazards. Other than paying to have it lab tested, there is no way to be certain what you have received. There is no website to identify them, because their products are not regulated like their U.S. counterparts and they are not required to log their imprints. Is anyone familiar with these? ## I got this pill from a US phamacy. No...

My Dr. doesn't want to write this as a sleep aid. How can I get this medication prescribed!? Please help. I have bad insomnia! Is anyone else taking this for sleep problems? I'm sleep deprived... ## Does any one else have this problem with primary care Dr. Not wanting to prescribe? It seems they say it is because of state laws??? I was wondering if this is just in Texas or is this just with primary care Dr.'s? Please reply if you have this problem!! I'd greatly appreciate your response!!! ## Hello Little Bit, Back in June of 2015 Temazepam was changed to a schedule 3 drug which means that it was possible to abuse this drug, although less likely than a schedule 1 or 2, and that in taking this medication there was a low or moderate chance to have low physical dependency an...

For about a year now my Walgreens Pharmacy has only been able to get the Sun brand, and even that is often on back order. Several times I’ve had a bottle that several of the pills just dont work. Has anyone else had this experience? I’ve had other brands that seemed to work better but don’t remember the makers. A friend told me that he has experienced this issue as has his sister, but he didn’t know the maker. Does anyone have a brand that works better than others? ## Simply put, the ER formulations for me never helped much only instant release did and worked very well...much much better than the Extended Release. Ask the Doctor for a low dosage of the Immediate release, if they will do that. It seems the ER formula isnt working for you. I was also taking the 12....

Zolpidem Tartrate 10mg possibly defective? I take 1.5 to 2 tabs for me to get a therapeutic effect equivalent to the white generics I used to get from Medco. We used to call it "Buffing." Looking at the mold marks on the Torrent brand. A square with four dots inside it remind me of Mexican counterfeit tab impressions manufactured in latex or silicone hand pressed molds. The mark is not sharp and clear that I have seen elsewhere. The 10 Mg on the other side of the tab seems well imprinted? The yellow/orange pigment used in the tab....diluted yellow road paint? ## I agree. It felt like it was diluted. Now I ask my doctor for Teva -- never Torrent. It just seems weak somehow. ## Torrent Ambien is a scam. I think they dilute it....The company should be investigated... ## If you have...

I had this 10 mg from torrent and the pharmacy could not supply a refill. I do not like the substitute mfg. How can I get torrent zolpidem? ## Have you tried asking your pharmacy if they can order it in for you? This is a generic for Ambien and the one that a pharmacy carries can change, at any given time, depending on who was offering the cheapest price, when they had to restock their supply. This is how the keep the price as low as possible for customers that don't have insurance. ## Torrent is a Co. from India By local,hell I'd rather be broke n at least know that my $$ was still in Country Semper Fi' ## Recieved RX of 30 tabs Some are Peach-Yellow in color Others are white in color. Isn't that odd? Should they be 2 different colors in the same order? The inmprint on ...

Can someone tell me what the relationship between Gabapentin and Melatonin is? I’m slowly tapering up to taking 300 mg of Gabapentin 3 xs a day and am weaning off Ibuprofen this week. My Pain Management Specialist wants me to lower my pain level to make life more dueable as well as minimizing any variables at the same time. Currently I’m taking 5 mg of Melatonin and have been taking this for 5 years in order to sleep more than 3 hrs at a time (been on Gabapentin for 3.5 months and had no differences with sleep schedule afterwards). Do I need to wean off Melatonin while slowly increasing Gabapentin? I know that the pain will decrease. ## Melatonin is a supplement that is used to restore a normal sleep cycle, so there are no known warnings about taking it with a prescription m...

My pill is round and white with the number 2113 on one side only and is suppose to be a zolpidem 12.5mg. ## Hello, Carol! How are you? Can you please double check the imprint and post back? The closest I can find has the markings A116, which is manufactured by Anchen Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 12.5mgs of Zolpidem in an extended release formulation. The FDA classifies this medication as a sedative hypnotic and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, hallucinations, sleep actions and next day hangover-like effects. ## zolpidem only comes in 10mg and not 12mg as you said it was. ## I have these zolpidem ER and they don't work at all! ## Same here.

ALL CVS pharmacies just changed the zolpidem from MYLAN manufacturer (out of PA) to TORRENT in India. Because generics can certain behave differently, I am nervous about taking the (10 mg) oblong peach Torrent brand one after reading some things online. I also don't like the idea of CVS using from out of the country manufacturer which HAS to be due to a better price because MYLAN brand is still very readily available. Any comments? ## The country doesn't matter, as long as the manufacturer has approval from the FDA for their products to be sold in the U.S., CVS or any other pharmacy, can stock their products. There can be some differences in generic medications, however, this usually doesn't affect the greater number of the people that take it. If you are aware of how it nor...

Thr VA gave them to me and its like drinking coffee befoe going to bed ## Having abstained from coffee for several hours, and feeling a little tired, I took my first 20mg of temazepam and settled down with a book before attempting to doze off. I am WIDE awake. I found myself tossing and turning, stretching myself, humming various tunes, rolling on the bedroom floor. Is this supposed to be a soporific or an amphetamine by another name? ## If you taken 20mg of temazepam for the first time ever and your wide awake and restless you didn't get your pills from doctor or you have been given the wrong medication by accident. You would be very nicely chilled out and in the land of dreams after a short period. I would definately go straight by to your doctor/pharmicist/dealer and complain ## ...

I have been on Flurazepam for some time and am being told by my pharmacy that there is a manufacture problem and they don't know when it will be in. Feeling anxious as I know I would have side affects if I just stop it. Any one have information on this? ## Unfortunately, some sources are listing it as having been discontinued. Thus, the best thing to do might be to consulted your doctor about trying an alternative medication.

Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thank you for your response; I'm still researching.
