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 f tn In New Zealand where I am, the percentage must be shown on the label and only products containing less than 5% are able to be sold over the counter so no warning is required on the label. It's up to you, but I've chosen to avoid as there are many chemicals I can't avoid, that is one I can. It's only for a little while.
Avatar f tn He also said geno 3a is the best one to have. He has been a hepatologist for the last 20 years and moves around the uk setting up hepatology clinics. Then when I said I wanted to treat he sent me to another hospital because the one near me isn't set up yet as he is waiting for the funding, then the next hepatologist who is newly trained said personally she wouldn't wait and get on with it as she has seen people with end stage liver disease!

Cat Hi! If you were my patient, I would advise you that the best products for rosacea and acne are prescription antibiotics. One option to consider would be laser or broad band light treatments at a medi-spa in your area, These are pricey too, but can give lasting results. Good luck!

Avatar f tn Sometimes we need something stronger than just the regular over the counter acne treatments and they can discuss with you better ways to help clear up your face. They can also give you a prescription for something that can work better for you. Hope it goes well.
Avatar n tn im working part time, yet to get my meager pay. i would like to ask if there are any over the counter treatment, and are there any conditions with similar symptoms, because if that is the case, i can longer assume it is folliculitis and will have to spend money to see a doctor. thanks!
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.
903040 tn?1285810947 Pretty much any over the counter medication (such as clearasil) should be fine, but buy it at a drugstore and run it by the pharmacist. You can also run it by your Dr. Also, you are going to laugh, but a product that worked really well for me (and a few others I have recommended it to) was toothpaste. Unfortunately it can also dry your skin, but it does get rid of the acne. Good luck!
