Avatar f tn Call your local pharmacist. We at MedHelp are not allowed to give out dosing instructions. Your pharmacist will be able to tell you exactly how to dose the medications. If your regular pharmacy is closed on Sunday, call any pharmacist availabe at your local grocery store or drug store such as Walgreens, CVS, or RiteAid.
Avatar f tn Hi everyone, I recently was diagnosed with Bacterial Vaginosis and was prescribed 14 tablets of 400mg of Metronidazole. I have been taking one tablet once a day for 6 days now. I was wondering why I still had symptoms and I went back to look at the instructions to see if it had any information, this is when I realised I should of been taking one tablet twice a day! I’m away from home, so won’t be able to see my doctor. I know I should finish my dose, should I start taking two a day?

Also, it would be wise to get a timer and set it and some alarms for reminders. I hope other here can tell you more about your other questions. Best of luck to you going forward.
Avatar n tn That depends on your doctors comfort levels in prescribing , a patients ability to tolerate side effects, other medical conditions, effectiveness of using opiates, but typically- most physicians will not prescribe over 90 to 100 MME mg dosing per day-(Morphine equivalent dosing per day)- and typically only for patients who have been on opiates for some time. MME dosing combines both long acting and immediate release types of opiates to reach 90-100mg MME daily.
Avatar f tn HAS ANYONE TOOK METRONIDAZOLE FOR BACTERIA INFECTION DOWN THERE? DOES IT HARM THE BABY IM 5 MONTHS AND WORRIED.
Avatar m tn Trichomoniasis can usually be cured with prescription drugs, either metronidazole or tinidazole, given by mouth in a single dose. The symptoms of trichomoniasis in infected men may disappear within a few weeks without treatment. However, an infected man, even a man who has never had symptoms or whose symptoms have stopped, can continue to infect or re-infect a female partner until he has been treated. Above is the treatment recommendation by the CDC. I would suggest following up with your Dr.
Avatar f tn Hi, You need to speak with your prescribing physician about dosing instructions with the Suboxone. Make certain you follow his instructions, especially going from Methadone to Suboxone. Let us know how you make out.
Avatar f tn You need to consult with your prescribing doctor regarding dosing instructions.
2020005 tn?1628125976 I'm taking Metronidazole Vaginal Gel for a bacterial infection, 2x a day for 5 days. I noticed over the 5 days I was getting a clumpy white discharge with it (NOT a yeast infection discharge, different) Like the gel was hardening, and coming out that way. I stopped taking it yesterday, and today I had a quarter size white clump of it come out! Should I contact my doctor?!
Avatar n tn Exactly - the med is the same, the strength is the same - the pack is just an easier way for your doctor to prescribe it rather than actually figuring out how many pills to prescribe - and also probably easier on the pharmacy for them not having to write out all the instructions on dosing.
Avatar m tn My peroid is 3 days late, done a pregnancy test came back Nagivite. Just worried if am not pregnant then why is my Period late ? Any advice?
Avatar m tn Hey old-timers.... I was perusing the "official" dosing instructions for Pegasys on the pharma company site. After you poke yourself, you're supposed to pull back slightly on the plunger. They say if blood appears in the syringe, STOP and DISCARD the whole thing. This seems rather odd. A couple questions: 1. I know this indicates you've hit a vein, but whats the big deal - why do you have to stop? It's still going in the old body. 2.
Avatar n tn s instructions. I am in wk 22 and at least I can get some rest, Always ask your doc about specific treatments, drug interactions and dosing specific to YOU!
Avatar f tn Tylenol is unveiling new maximum dosage instructions for paracetamol or acetaminophen in the US. The new instructions state a maximum total daily of 3,000 mg versus the old maximum of 4,000 mg. Additionally, it states to take the over the counter dosage every 6 hours instead of every 4 to 6 hours. These new instructions seem to be specific to their over the counter products not prescription medications.
Avatar f tn Anyways about 2 1/2 weeks ago I was on Metronidazole and had unprotected sex on the 5th day, the nurse told me to use condoms for 8 days. I also missed my last “active white pill” (before 2 Placebo pills) Friday 3/9, had unprotected sex and didn’t realize till Monday. I took my Wednesday pill 3/14 about 17 hours late. Is it possible I can become pregnant?
Avatar f tn Im thinking he will say yes,, but he will also be able to give you dosing instructions on how to properly do that... so its important you talk to him first.
Avatar m tn You don't need to go to anyone for medical help, but try to read the instructions more carefully. Over a longer term such a misunderstanding could cause problems. Usually the 50,000 unit dose is "once a week" for non-compliant patients who don't remember to take their pills.
Avatar n tn Pharmacists must also check the database for last fill date, quantity, dosing instructions, and notify any prescribers that you attempted to fill another prescription from another physician. They may also be required to report to law enforcement.
3149845 tn?1506627771 Some people accidentally exceed the recommended dose when taking multiple products at the same time, often without realizing they contain acetaminophen or by not reading and following the dosing instructions. McNeil is revising its labels for products containing acetaminophen in an attempt to decrease the likelihood of accidental overdosing in those instances.
Avatar f tn BEcca we would love to help but it is ageist the guidelines to give out any dosing instructions best to call a doctor google sub they have a 1-800 # for info good luck and God bless......
Avatar f tn Yes. But like all OTC drugs follow the dosing instructions on the bottle and don't use it too many days in a row. With my last pregnancy I got so big and uncomfortable at the end I would never had gotten any sleep if it wasn't for a little benedryl once in a while lol.
Avatar f tn Just make sure you follow dosing instructions for the drops. It is important that you take all your drops! Other than that there is not much for you to do. If you were instructed to maintain a certain position then continue to do so unless your surgeon says otherwise. However, it will not effect IOP. The only position that would effect IOP is having your head lower than your heart, like doing a headstand.
1647478 tn?1352025853 Hey there I am currently 23 weeks pregnant and yesterday at my dr visit I was told I had BV this is something I never heard of so of course I have googled it and read some scary stuff not only about BV but also about the metronidazole that was prescribed to treat this. Has anyone else experienced this or taken this medication ? Hoping this will not affect my growing babes and also hoping it will not come back because it seems to have a high level of recurrence.
