Avatar f tn Anyone have experience with any over the counter depression medicine that works well?
Avatar m tn You can also treat acne by cleaning your face regularly, using skincare products, apply antibacterial topical medications. With the help of the doctor, the treatment of oral antibiotics, contraceptive pills, retinoids, cortisone injections, chemical peels and laser treatment can be your choices.

Avatar f tn An over the counter medication is any medication that can be purchased without a prescription "over the counter", but does not make the medication safer and needs to be taken according to the directions on the package and there is a need to be more vigilent and take into consideration individual health, the benefits versus the risks and potential interactions with any prescribed meidcations.
Avatar n tn t know what causes boil. But I do know that they make an over the counter topical medication you can buy to put onto it. It will suck out the toxins. It smells really bad (we just put a bandaid over it to keep from the smell) but after about two or three days of this it went away, He hasn't had one since. All we did was just buy the medication and follow the instructions on the bottle.
Avatar f tn Try a cream with salicylic acid or benzol peroxide. They are strong anti-acne meds that you can get over the counter. If your pimple is cystic (doesn't have a head, won't pop) you may need oral medication. But try the other suggestions first!
5079728 tn?1365549989 So any medication that you can go in and buy without a prescription is considered an over the counter medication. This would include every single med lined up on the shelves ..... pain killers, cough meds, diarrhea meds, nausea meds, stomach meds, anti-itching meds, everything. If I recall correctly, you have cirrhosis, so you really do have to be careful not to take anything that the doctor does not approve first.
Avatar n tn But, I would like to know if there is an over the counter medicine. I only get the urgency after a little stress. It stops after 10 hours or so on it's own. But, a cheaper "as needed" OTC medicine would sure be something I am interested in.
Avatar f tn I have several presentations that I have to give next week and I was hoping for some suggestions as to what I can take to help ease my anxiety. Whenever I have to give major speeches or presenations like these, I get shaky and nauseous and dizzy, and now I've realized that I'd like to take something to try and prevent it from happening again. I've been looking into it, and I've read about St. John's Wort, Valerium Root, but that's about it.
Avatar f tn yes yes, I am clean from Vicoden, Antidepresants but still am using a sleep aid, have been using over the counter meds for sleep since the 80's then went to prescription sleep aid and now I only sleep 3 or 4 hours using them. I am going to go off them soon. My Dr would like to see me wait until Jan just because I came off two meds this year and had surgery's but please don't go to prescription sleep aids I think it is harder to get off them than OCT.

Avatar n tn Hey, does anyone know if theres anything to buy over the counter that will speed up healing process/sort out the immense pain/ and help with peeing with herpes? Ive tried a few things, tea tree and olbas oil seems to get rid of them when i feel im getting a tingling sensation but once there fully there i find it really difficult to get them to leave. I wouldnt mind going to my doctors but i get them so regularly i would be there every other month!
1389226 tn?1280190027 A few weeks ago I developed some red spots on my upper chest area, centered mostly around the front of the shoulders and pectoral region. The red marks would look like tiny red acne lesions, but they did not respond to any of the acne medication that I tried to use on them (benzoyl peroxide, etc). The marks would spread more and more. They did not itch, they were not painful, and they did not come to a head.
Avatar m tn I went to my physician the other day, and instead of prescribing me dynacin which he usually does for the past year or so, he told me to get an over the counter Benzoyl Peroxide wash, and that my acne was so mild that dynacin wasn't needed anymore. Before the trip to the doctor, I washed my skin once a day with Clearasil Sacrylic Acid (2%) acne scrub and took the Dynacin (100mg, twice a day).
Avatar n tn There are many over the counter anti dandruff shampoos. Selsen Blue is one of them. If your hair is naturally too oily, try a shampoo the says "clarifying" . A lot of these type of shampoos help at the root of the hair shaft and help balance out the amount of moisture present. I have a teenage daughter with this exact problem. I ended up buying a clarifying shampoo from a local beauty salon.
Avatar f tn Also oral sex can cause yeast infections if your partners mouth has a high population of yeast. The pH of your vagina may be off as well. Vagisil has an over the counter screening kit to test pH. If you have only tried over the counter stuff for your infections you need to go see a doctor to get it straightened out! Good luck!
