Avatar n tn Because I had been previously diagnosed (and treated with 1000mg Amoxicillin three times daily) with a sinus and left ear infection about a month earlier he suspected that I could possibly have some type of resistant sinusitus and prescribed Augmentin XR (1000 mg) 2 pills twice a day. I had oral sex again with the asymptomatic guy again on 4/11. I was informed by the guy who developed gonorrhea of all this today, 4/14, and have not had sex with him since before his symptoms began.
Avatar n tn He advised against this but gave me a prescription of Azithromycin, with 500mg dosage twice a day for three days. In all my research online, I have read that the recommended dosage is 1g of Azithromycin taken once. Is the dosage I was prescribed as effective?

Avatar m tn I used to take 300Mgs a day of Effexor XR for 4 years (before it pooped out on me) Anyway there is something that you need to know about Effexor XR (Venlafaxine) that is that at or below the 150Mg dosage mark Effexor is simply just another SSRI and has no SNRI action. With Effexor the Norephineperine mechanism of action does not take place unless the patient is taking at least 225Mgs a day. In most cases 300Mgs a day.
Avatar n tn t I take the extended form, I would first take only half a pill. Often that worked just fine. I was not on a maintenance dosage, and if my doctor had recommended it, I would have refused. Doctors are not chemists. You get better information on drugs from a druggist.
656243 tn?1231288052 The doctors say that with antidepressants, it takes a few weeks to kick in. Hang in there. If you have any other questions about Effexor XR, please let me know. Effexor XR, by the way, is a time-release medication, which means it stays in your body at a steady level all day. You only have to take it once a day. What dosage are you on?
Avatar f tn I test my own blood and adjust my dosage of warfarin. Usually I'm right in range 2.5 to 3.5 (2 art heart valves). About 6 to 8 weeks ago, I took augmentin for 10 days, 2 weeks ago, I took another antibiotic for 5 days. Since then, my PT/INR has been too low, 2.0. My diet and meds have stayed the same. I've been increasing my dose, yet it's still too low. Is it normal for this change? Please see my profile! Can it indicate my lupus activity?
Avatar f tn I had an abscess in my right breast 10 years ago and it left a little lump after it healed. Two weeks ago I developed an abscess in the same spot. My GP recommended a week of antibiotics (Augmentin) and it started to drain on its own two days back. I feel a thickened area which hasn't gone down. Should I be worried? The abscess continues to drain slowly and I have covered it with sterilized gauze. Please help.
Avatar m tn You may stick with the old plan for Xanax for the first week or so of the XR 150 alternate day dosage. If you observe no symptoms of discontinuation, you can reduce the Xanax to your new plan of 1/2 tab twice a day. The idea is to take care of any anxiety symptoms that might come up as you reduce Wellbutrin dose, as is commonly reported. Hope this helps.

429925 tn?1203905115 What is the maximum dosage for Effexor XR? Also, is it advisable to take with Lorazapham?
Avatar f tn Low dosage 75Mgs a day XR. It will kick the depression in the ***, which in turn usually reduces the Anxiety. A good Combo, Just my Opinion. My symptoms were much like yours so I'm just telling you what worked for me for a good long while.
Avatar m tn do you know what dosage? I have an unrelated sickness.
Avatar m tn Have you started tapering down your dosage per your doctor's instructions? Just make sure you are not adjusting dosage or quitting it without talking to your doctor first; just ensure you follow his/her instructions. Doing it on your own can cause many unpleasant symptoms that you would not really have to endure if you take it as prescribed.
Avatar f tn Hi there. I wanted to let you know that the highest FDA recommended dosage for Effexor XR is 300mg. So, I wonder what your husband's internist meant? Yes, they can increase the dosage if you are becoming too "adjusted" to that dosage, but in some cases it is best to just switch to another med altogether. I highly recommend seeing a Psychiatrist. These are MDs who are professionals in the area of psych meds and will know exactly what to do.
Avatar f tn it sounds like you had an allergic reaction or OD to the Augmentin. My Mom nearly died from Augmentin. It is a very strong drug and sometimes doctors go over board on the dosage. Don't take anymore. Call your doctor and get a different, less harsh antibiotic.
Avatar m tn No easy answer here. First I assume you mean Adderall XR? Let me know if you don't because the next sentence is about XR. Most Charts list 50mgs as the maximum dose. And weight really has less to do with the dosage then one would think. Dr. Charles Parker, author of "New ADHD Medication Rules", says, "I always steer completely away from an answer to the question of ‘just what is your top dose?
397906 tn?1208241269 i have been taking xanax xr for 6 months now. originally i started of 2 mg daily, but after a few months i started to feel better so i gradually lowered my dose to .5mg and have been on this dose for 3 months now.Is it possible that xanax xr can cause PVCs?, i seen in your earlier posts that you say xanax xr builds up rapid tolerance?well i am concerned because of these skipped heart sensations that i have been getting, i also have mitral valve prolapse since i was 16(now 22).
Avatar n tn should i stop taking the wellbutrin for depression and increase my dosage of seroquel xr to 300-400mg?
1085866 tn?1256496382 My doctor put me on adderall XR Oral (but on the bottle it says amphetamine salts). I know that there is usually a feeling out process when it comes to ADHD and the various treatments. However, I have hypertension and in my research, I've noticed that this is not recommended for people with hypertension. I started taking it on Saturday and noticed that my blood pressure, (that I was being treated for with atenlol and lisinopril) shot up to about 160/100 on average.
Avatar n tn Augmentin can cause liver damage, as can tylenol (if you take more than the recommended 4,000 mg/day). I suppose that the risk would be increased with concurrent use of augmentin and tylenol. Usually, once you have stopped taking the medication, your enzymes could trend downwards to normal. Do you take any cardiac medications (ie. amiodorone, etc)?
Avatar f tn I then took Effexor and later ther Effexor XR. Effexor XR allowed me to live a reasonably normal life raising a child and having a career. For at least 3 years my depression has slowly gotten progressively worse. My counselor and I believe it is time to add an additional medication, possibly welbutrin or change to a different antidepressant. Currently I take 300mg of effexor XR. This is the same level I have taken for the entire time I've used effexor. I would like input and advice.
