large white pill with G600 on it ## G 600 is 600 mg Motrin Ibuprofen ## I have arthritis, bursitis and tendinitis and all that ever helped was Motrin 600 [large white pill] I can not take ibuprofen. Is there any way that I can buy the Motrin 600? ## IS MOTRIN STILL MANUFACTURED? ## Yes, it is still available, by prescription, but if you can't take Ibuprofen then you cannot take Motrin, because Ibuprofen is the active ingredient in it.

Ibuprofen + Pseudoephedrine

Pseudoephedrine (PSE) is a sympathomimetic drug of the phenethylamine and amphetamine chemical classes.

I have oval shaped pills that have stamped on them IP465, ARE THESE MOTRIN OR IBUPROFIN? ## Motrin is Ibuprofen, it is just a name brand for it, but Ibuprofen is the active ingredient in it. The tablet you have is a generic for Motrin, which contains 600mgs of Ibuprofen, so it is a prescription only strength. Is there anything else I can help with?

I took 2 Aleve, then 3 - 4 hours later, 1Motrin. Should I be worried? ## Hello, Worrywort! How are you? Did you experience any adverse effects? This combination most likely won't do more than cause nausea and stomach pain, but it may be dangerous for some people with certain health conditions or who are on certain prescription medications. But they are both NSAIDs, so it's essentially doubling up on the same medication and should be avoided in the future.

I'm vegetarian and need to take Motrin, other then the gelatin capsule are there anymore animal ingredients in this product? Thank you. ## Once again, these are tablets, not capsules and, without knowing if you are getting the name brand or a generic, I can only provide you with information on the name brand product. Other than the active ingredient Ibuprofen, the name brand tablets are listed as containing: carnauba wax, colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, hypromellose, lactose, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, propylene glycol, titanium dioxide. The inactive ingredients can vary in the generics, from manufacturer to manufacturer, so that is only the list for the name brand product.

Oval beige pill,black letters RUFEN 8 ## Have u ever seen a pill that is oblong beige ,black letters that say Rufen8, the bottle said Motrin but I am confused never seen them before ## Yes, it contains Ibuprofen, like Motrin, and is just another name brand for it. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with?

IS DUOFLEX A COMBINATION OF NAPROXIN AND MOTRIN? ## Hello, Peg! How are you? No, it actually doesn't contain the active ingredient from either one. Duoflex contains the active ingredient Carisoprodol, which is a muscle relaxant, and Diclofenac, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. It's used to treat pain, swelling and muscle spasms. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, dry mouth and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I think that answers my questions. Thanks. ## You are very welcome! Feel free to post back, if there's anything else I can help with!

How many can i take without getting my liver hurt with the acetaminophen. I hurt my back and I took one about two hours ago but my back is still killing me. Doc also gave me 600mg Motrin and something called flexiril. I'm not a pill popper so I don't know how safe taking all this stuff is. But I can hardly sit anywhere besides a hot tub without extremes pain. Seeing chiropractor next week until then all I got is the hydrocodone the Motrin and the flexiril. HELP anyone please. ## The Watson 385 tablet contains 500mgs of Acetaminophen and 7.5mgs of Hydrocodone, the active ingredients in Vicodin, it is a narcotic pain reliever. I can't tell you how much you can take, before you may suffer liver damage, that can vary from person to person, but I can tell you that anything over 4...

motrin with penicilln? ## Ibuprofen and antibiotics are often both prescribed at the same time, to treat the pain and swelling that an infection can cause.

I just took amitriptylin 10 mg about 4 hours ago and am having shoulder pain. Can I take some ibuprofin? ## I didn't find any interactions listed, but you should check with your doctor, or pharmacist to be certain. Since they can both cause drowsiness and dizziness as side effects, these may be more severe if you take them both, so you should be aware of that and make sure you aren't driving or doing anything that requires high alertness, until you are sure about the effects they have on you. Are there any other questions or comments?

need more for pain ... lyrica, and wellbutrin recently increased, and also take paxil. Lots of new pain. Can I take motrin and tylenol and not permanently damage an organ over the next month ... see doc then. ## There are no interactions listed for them, however, the Motrin and Tylenol are both nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, so they really should not be taken together. If the Lyrica is not helping your pain, then you should contact your doctor immediately, you may need a dosage adjustment or a different medication. Have you talked to your doctor, yet? ## Verwon, I don't know how you became a moderator for giving wrong information. Tylenol is NOT a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. ## I'm taking lyrica (50mg twice a day) the nerves pin reduced 70% but I still muscles pain,...

Is there a generic or alternative to methadone 5 mg? What options do I have for motin 800 as I had heart surgery and am now on Lasix and warfin and can no longer take motrin? I need something for inflammation! Thanks in advance. ## Hello, Ellie! How are you doing? Methadone is the generic, but there are other opiate narcotics available. The FDA does warn that they carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. As to a replacement for the Motrin, you may be able to take a steroid, but only your doctor can decide what's safe for you. How long ago did you have the surgery? What other medications are you taking?

I am taking norco 5-325 for back pain, it's BAD. My RX says 1 pill every 8 hrs. I took one 4 hours ago, but not a dent in the pain. Can I take another one? Also, can I supplement with two Motrin? ## You should not take more than your doctor has prescribed, you should follow their dosing instructions, including for the use of Motrin. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Are you on any other medications?
