If you're still feeling that awful, it would probably be a good idea to talk to your doctor. This most likely just isn't the right medication for you. Learn more Pristiq details here. Have you tried any others, or just this one? ## Sweetcakes, I hope by now you have seen your doctor regarding these symptoms, if not get there asap, this is not normal & have them help you in getting off the Pristiq!

Why doesn't the white ip 119 work as good as the blue watson 540. My back pain is so bad since I switched ## There can be slight fluctuations in generic medications in the amount of the active ingredients, so it is possible that the one you're taking now has a slightly lower amount and just doesn't work as well for you. Learn more Lortab details here. How long have you been taking it? If you've been on it for awhile, it's also possible that you may have grown tolerant to it and will need to try a different medication. These will soon be changed to only contain a maximum of 325mgs of Acetaminophen, anyway, which I am thinking will cause many people to have to switch medications. ## I have jusy started taking these. I was taking the watsons before. It seems as if they ...

Can anyone help? My INR is at 4.0. I'm wondering if I should skip my Plavix dose along with my Warfarin. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. ## I'm not on Plavix but when my INR is that high my dr. has me hold the warfarin 1 or even 2 days. When in doubt I ALWAYS call Walgreens pharmacists, they always give me good advice until I can check in with my doctor. ## Thank you very much I should have thought of that. I'm new to this and I freak out when things go wrong. I am having a hard time staying in range. I will make that call right away. God bless, Mike

Otherwise, you'll likely get more responses if you can post back with your general location. California is pretty big....

What condition(s) would require a dosage of 800mg. Acyclovir tabs. once or twice a day? ## How many times a day do I take 500mg of Acyclovir and how many days if I have a cold sore? ## Acyclovir/Aciclovir is an antiviral medication, so it may be used to help treat any viral condition ranging from AIDs to herpes, including simplex 1. Learn more Acyclovir details here. As to how often to take it for a cold sore and for how long, you should follow the instructions provided by your doctor. In most cases, however, it won't help much after the cold sore has already erupted. It works better at prevention and should be taken as soon as you start showing the signs of developing one.

Off white oval pill with KCM10 ## what is the Off white oval pill with KCM10 written on it? Is it an antibiotic or pain reliever medicine ## And the answer is that this tablet is not an antibiotic, nor is it a pain reliever. This tablet contains 10mEqs of Potassium, so it is a prescription potassium supplement that's used to treat or prevent a deficiency in this vital nutrient. It can cause nausea in some people, so it is best taken with food and should be swallowed whole, since it is irritating to mucous membranes. Learn more Potassium details here.
