Common Questions and Answers about Desvenlafaxine succinate sustained release

pristiq

Avatar n tn PRISTIQ is an extended-release tablet for oral administration that contains desvenlafaxine succinate, a structurally novel SNRI for the treatment of MDD. Pristiq is an SNRI while Wellbutrin is not. Abilify is not in either class, it is totally different.
Avatar m tn It is succinate, btw. is the succinate supposed to be extended release? It doesnt seem to be releasing at all.
Avatar m tn Morning - Olmesartan (H) 40mg, Metoprolol Succinate Extended Release 25mg; Evening - Olmesartan 40mg, Metoprolol Succinate Extended Release 25mg. Now, I have been further prescribed for 30 days, which I have started taking: Eltroxin 25mg empty stomach & Zyloric 100mg after breakfast. Kindly advise further.
Avatar m tn In a word "Yes". The bigger question is: can you remember to take it twice a day...at the proper time? If so, then you can ask your doctor for the chance to try it.
Avatar n tn Toprol XL is metoprolol succinate and is an extended release prescription...the immediate release is metoprolol tartrate. If he was prescribed 100 mg Toprol XL once/day it should be the same as taking metoprolol tartrate 50 mg 2/day. We are not physicians nor pharmacists and you should consult one or both about drug substitutions and dosage equivalents.
Avatar f tn In an attempt to avoid an ablation for SVTs & going to the Emergency Department lately once a month to get converted with IV medication, (I'm older with co-morbidities, there's a pandemic, & really, my ElectroPhysiologist doesn't have a lot of experience doing ablations), my EP & I are trying different medications. I'm increasing metoprolol succinate (the extended release one) from 25 mg to 37.5 mg.
Avatar n tn If I go back to the cytomel along with some sustained release T3, it will actually be slightly less T3 than I am on now, but it will be mostly immediate release rather than sustained release, if that makes sense. I seem to need way more of the sustained type than I did with the cytomel. I'm not sure why... Do you think combining a sustained release med with an immediate release med is a bad thing? Or does it matter?
214864 tn?1229715239 I would contact my prescribing doctor immediately if you take this generic form - Metoprolol Succinate ER. ======================================================== Latest News: FDA Finds Fault with Generic Toprol XL -- Problems Reported Earlier by ConsumerLab.com (Date Posted: 8/28/2008) On August 12, 2008, the U.S. FDA sent a letter to Sandoz Inc. warning of violations in its manufacture of Metoprolol Succinate ER tablets and other drug products.
Avatar f tn re taking half of a 25mg pill of Metoprolol Succinate (the time release version of Metoprolol), you are taking 12mg per day, which is a teeny, tiny dose. By contrast, I'm on150mg per day, and I don't feel a thing from it. Some people can be on a dose as high as 400mg. per day. So I would try and put your dose level in perspective. Could 12mg per day affect you adversely...it's possible.
Avatar m tn Hello people, I just ordered my Cytomel (T3/Thryoid Meds) from Mexico, it's called Tryiotex and people in the net says it's a slow released meds.. the dosage are 75mcg for a pill.. how should i take them? what's sustained release means? will it be ok to take the dosage first thing in the a.m on an empty stomach? or should i split the dosage for 2 times a day? (remember - that's a slow/sustained release pills.. different from other brands out there..
Avatar m tn Also consumed 3 grams/day of omega 3 supplements and was on a relatively low carb diet during this period. Pretty sure the sustained release Niacin may be culprit but anyone familiar with anything else that would raise these three enzymes as noted above. I have stopped the Slo Niacin. What's a reasonable time to recheck blood after getting off the Niacin....a month? Also, note that BUN/Creatine just slightly high and ALP, Bilirubin, A/G,Albumin, etc liver markers were all normal.
Avatar m tn Physicians usually prescribe Metoprolol to be taken twice a day beca use of his. MetoprololSuccinate is the time release version, and that is taken once a day. In addition 25mg. is an exceedingly small dose. I would think that you should acclimate to it in a couple of weeks. I'm on 75mg. per day, and I feel no I'll effects whatsoever...
Avatar m tn I recommend sleep hygiene and cognitive therepy before using any drugs for imsomnia 12.
1703392 tn?1307450500 He changed my metaprolol from 50mg succinate once a day (I told him I felt terrible, no energy) to 25mg tartrate twice a day. Thoughts anyone?
Avatar f tn From a compounding pharmacy: "Cytomel is immediate release T3, and compounded T3 is a 12 hour sustained release T3, therefore you are getting a continuous dose of T3 over a 12 hour period, and not just a burst of T3 with the immediate release cytomel." Your SR T3 is releasing over a 12 hr period, so you have 12 hrs that you have none in your system. This has been found to be a problem with other members...
Avatar f tn Hi, I have many symptoms of hypothyroid but my thyroid levels are normal, so my physician prescribed low-dose (5mg) Cytomel in the hopes of alleviating my symptoms. Has anyone taken Cytomel (not the sustained-release form, just the regular instant-release form) for Wilson's Syndrome? If so, could you please share your story? Did Cytomel work? Did you try the sustained-released form of T3?
Avatar f tn It is sustained release. I have heard good things about this product. But I am worried that it is sustained-release and will affect my meds. Any ideas on what kind of iron to take. I find that they are very constipating. I don't need that to deal with. Thanks in advance!

376186 tn?1219279505 I am wondering what the longest period in which you have had sustained PVC's or PAC's? And how often will you get sustained PVC's? If there are no symptoms, ie dizziness, how long would you wait before you went to the ER or would you even consider going? Have you talked this over w/your cardio or EP? Are you on medication that helps to suppress these and if so, what do you take and how much? Yesterday, I started having sus.
Avatar f tn Can I take Metoprolol Succinate and Indole 3 Carbinol without any drug interactions? I have been taking Metoprolol Succinate for tachycardia for a few years now and have gained weight I was watching the Dr. Oz show and he recommended takig Indole 3 Carbinol for people who carry more weight on the bottom half of their body. It just being vegetables wouldnt seem to effect anything, but I'm juat asking to be on the safe side. I have tried doing my own research but I have not found anything.

Avatar f tn On the first day I developed hives under my tongue from a sublingual progesterone. I am now on sustained release progesterone (capsule) at nighttime. I apply progesterone and Biest cream in the morning. My hot flashes got more severe and more frequent since starting HRT.
Avatar f tn My doctor prescribed me trazodone hydrochloride for anxiety, sumatriptan succinate for migraines, zopiclone for sleep, I've been told I can take the trazodone with zopiclone, but I have the new sumatriptan tablets, it says in the medical pamphlet that it is an MAO-A inhibitor and can't be taken with antidepressants/anxiety tablets. Would it be ok to take both the trazodone hydrochloride and the sumatriptin succinate together?
Avatar f tn I recently changed from sustained-release T3 to Armour Thyroid. I have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome and I did okay on the T3 - not well, but better. I went to a new doctor and she wanted me on T4 as well so switched me to Armour and I have had so much leg and all over muscle pain. I wasn't sure if it was the Armour or what but it is much more pain than I have ever had (and different pain) even though I always have muscle aches, this is even more intense and constant.
Avatar f tn I would like to know how 70mg Vyvanse compares mg wise to Adderall. Adderall instant release didn't seem to help me, what is the best form of this medication to take, sustained or what is the other one besides instant release? What is a MAO inhibitor --no one told me I couldn't mix--maybe that explains the dizziness. Just read a post of a person on both Vyvanese and Adderall--my doctor said no to me. What about Desoxyn?
