How Long Does Hyoscyamine To Effect

I took pill 3 hours ago and i am in the same amount of pain if not more than when i went to hospital. Could i possibly been misdiagnosed with ibs. ## Hello, Jess! How are you? Well, this isn't actually an analgesic, so it's not going to relieve pain. What Hyoscyamine does is help alleviate the intestinal spasms associated with IBS and other gastrointestinal disorders, but it will take some time for it to reach its full level of efficacy in your body. You should only take it as prescribed and give a few weeks, to see if it works for you. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including dry mouth, blurred vision, dizziness and flushing. Is there anything else I can help with?

Can i take ibuprofen or another pain med with hyoscyamine ## Hello, Sara! How are you? I didn't find any problems or interactions listed, but it's always best to double check such information to be sure. As to other pain medications, I can't check, without knowing the specific ones you want to check. There are far too many available for me to check them all for you. The FDA classifies Ibuprofen as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation. Can you post back with the names of others that you'd like me to check for you? Thanks! ## Can I take Levsin for cramps & ibuprofen at the same time for pain?

I Have Severe Ulcer Pain And have Taken Hyoscyamine Sublingual Tabs With Good Results. I have meds But The Prescription Is Expired From 2007. Is It Safe To Take Now? ## According to Harvard Medical School family health article, except in rare cases (i.e. tetracycline), there is little chance of danger due to taking medications even up to 15 years beyond their expiration date.

I take Lyrica, Tramadol, Effexor, Vyvanse, Valium (I have been on this medication for the past forty years because I have TMJ and it works as an muscle relaxant), Hyoscyamine, Dexilant, Singulair, and vitamins.

I am sorry to read of the problems you've been having.

I acquired P. HYOSCYAM in a large antique looking tin and am wondering if anyone can provide further information on it? I was told it could possibly be from the civil war era. ## Hello, Ben! How are you? Yes, it is most likely very old. Hyoscyamine is an antispasmodic that is used to treat conditions, such as IBS, peptic ulcers, pancreatitis and cystitis. It is not very commonly used, anymore. Though, it is still available in the U.S. via prescription. Typical side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include dry mouth, dry throat, eye pain, blurred vision, dizziness and flushing. It can be toxic, if someone takes too much, so it has to be dosed very carefully. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I seriously doubt the pills are from the civil war era.

Small round blue pill with the markings A 155 is a roxycodone 30mg ## Hello, Skeeta! How are you? I'm sorry, but there are no Oxycodone tablets with this marking.

Its typical side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dry mouth, urinary hesitancy, blurred vision and impotence. Where you perhaps thinking of the round, blue tablet with the A 215 marking? That one is manufactured by Actavis and they do list it as containing 30mgs of Oxycodone. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dr...
