Little circle blue pill that has the word Mylantin on it. ## Greetings, I've searched all around and absolutely nothing comes up for the word mylantin regarding pills or the medical industry. I have found many similar pharmaceutical companies such as Mylan or Mylanta. This leads me to believe that we are overlooking something here, perhaps there is a break somewhere or the structuring of the letters could be off. Maybe if you give me a bit more information on the imprint itself I can think of a different way to look up the pill. Do the letters circle around the pill or are they centered or perhaps even some are over the others?

Are there any side effects of taking a GI cocktail?
I was given a GI cocktail of mylanta, lidocaine viscous and dicyclomine at the er. I went in with chest pains feeling really out of it, shortness of breath, had blisters on the roof of my mouth, tired and couldn't remain awake. It could've been due to an allergic reaction to tramadol pain pills which I got last Friday. A chest xray showed ACUTE bronchitis and chest pains. EKG twice was fine. Did it twice Tuesday and nothing came up, but when I drank that GI Cocktail when my throat got numb, it felt like I was suffocating. I could hardly breathe. It felt like my air intake was closing up on me. I could see in my mind what it felt like it was doing. Like you see pictures in the doctors office of plague built up in the artery and the little hole where the blood barely flows; that...

DIPHENHYD./LIDOC/VISC/MYLANTA
WHAT IS THIS MEDICINE FOR. I HAVE A BLISTER IN MY MOUTH FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS.i ## Diphenhydramine, with Mylanta and Viscous Lidocaine is a combination that is used to treat several conditions, the Lidocaine treats the pain associated with that blister and the Mylanta helps reduce stomach upset and stomach acid, the Diphenhydramine can also reduce nausea. Was this prescribed by your doctor? ## This medication was prescribed for my mother by an on call doctor. She is reluctant to take it because she doesn't have blistering in her throat. Is this the best medicine for her especially with her hypertension? Why?

dark green pill with M, no other identification.
I found several dark free, circular pills with either a M or W printed on one side. No imprints on the other side. Can you please identify? Thanks. ## Hi concernedmom, Based on the description provided, I've identified your pill as a 240mg Mylanta tablet, containing a combination of aluminum hydroxide + magnesium hydroxide + simethicone. The correct marking is actually an "M" as you first mentioned. Mylanta is an over the counter antacid used for treating symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease; including heartburn, gas, and acid indigestion. And for verification, the manufacturer is reported to be Johnson & Johnson/Merck Pharmaceuticals, who seem to be on some sort of joint venture. I hope this helps!

Round dark green pill with w
Pill size of pinky finger nail. Round. Only a W on one side. Dark green ## I found several of the same pills. Could be a M instead of W. Looks like Mylan Lab logo. ## Hello, Based on the description provided, the closest match I'm finding is Mylanta (240mg); which is an antacid used to treat symptoms of indigestion and GERD. NOTE: The imprint appears to be an upper case "M" embedded on one side and blank on the other. It's also darker green in color with what looks like some sort of glossy/enteric coated finish. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Mylanta Details Please post back if you think this sounds like it could be a possible match. I hope this helps!

What Is A
with bisoprol fum 10 10 mg what is the best antacid to take? can mylanta be safely taken? ## I didn't find any interactions, or problems listed between taking it and Mylanta, but you should check with your doctor, or pharmacist to be certain. Learn more Bisoprolol details here. Usually, if there is a problem, it is when you use a calcium based one, such as Tums, because it can affect the absorption of certain medications. Are there any other comments or questions?
