Tiny round white pill ## This is an anticonvulsant, here's the monograph link: ## I've been diagnosed with Essential Tremors. I'm on 25mg primidone at night. I had trouble staying awake all day and had some nausea. Can I cut the pill into quarters? ## I take 100 mg of primidone nightly to control essential tremors. I have tried other Rx's but haven't been successful. Primidone makes me very tired. I have great difficulty getting out of bed early in the morning to go to work as a dental hygienist. When I get up I take Vyvanse to stimulate me, but I get tired again around 6:00pm. What other means do I have of being alert in the evenings?y

I was on 1,500mg of primidone a few weeks ago and my doctor went down to 500mg.because of a med mistake. It was really helping my mental health. Now i am anxious, irratable and just extremely emotional...what is wrong? I also have been missing some of my doses of saphris...what do i do? ## You are most likely experiencing withdrawal effects, especially coupled with missing doses of your Saphris. Have you informed your doctor of the dosage mistake? The typical side effects of Primidone may possibly include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, weight changes and mood swings.

I'm trying to identify a pill. It's a small round white tablet with 82 on one side and either a W or an M on the other side. I think it might be Primidone 50mg but I'm not able to verify it. ## I take Primodone and have M 82 on mine. (different sides) ## Mesoline or generic Premidone has 1 5130 on the front side and V on the other side.
