why are they hard on your stomach ## Sodium Chloride is basically just salt, and while all medications are hard on your stomach, salt tablets are even more so, because they are very acidic. This, coupled with your normal stomach acid, can create stomach irritation, which may lead to ulcers.

Potasium chloride and sodium blend table salt . What are the pros and cons Of replacing your table salt for this combination ? ## Hello, B! How are you? The pro would be cutting down on your sodium intake. Most of us take in far too much each day and, for those that are sodium sensitive, it creates the risk of hypertension, congestive heart failure, heart attack and stroke. The con would be the risk of taking in too much potassium, getting too much of it can be just as dangerous as not getting enough. Are there any other questions I can help with?

I AM TAKING A PRODUCT CALLED ASEA it is 190mg of chloride and 123mg of sodium in distilled water. I take 20z. 2x a day. Would taking naltrexone have any interaction with this product? Thank-you, Lynn calderard ## Hello, Lynn! How are you? These are just electrolytes that our bodies need, so there shouldn't be a problem. But it would be best to double check, since supplements aren't actually tested for interactions with prescription medications. Naltrexone is used for opiate and alcohol dependence. Its side effects may include nausea, dizziness, diarrhea and abdominal cramping. Is there anything else I can help with?

Sir, I have been taking Montelukast Sodium and levoctrizine dihydro chloride since few months as I feel relieved from allergy which used to cause cold and caugh.Although I feel fine now and want to quit this tablet now .Please suggest me on how to quit .I feel drowsiness which is having negative effect on my work .Please help me . ## This medication is not habit forming, so you don't need to taper off of it, or anything. However, stopping abruptly may cause some rebound sinus congestion, as reported by the U.S. FDA, but that should go away within a week, or so. Drowsiness can be a normal side effect of antihistamines, sometimes it gets so severe you can't stay awake to do anything. Are you on any other medications?
