Question 1

can i take amoxicillin and dexibuprofen together?

Accepted Answer

Yes!: Amoxicillin and NSAIDs, like dexibuprofen are often prescribed together to treat infections and secondary pain/inflammation.  Take both with food to reduce GI irritation.  Take Care!

Question 2

does dexibuprofen have cortisone in it? been prescribed 4 days of 3 x a day 300mg seractil. i am a singer and want nothing with steroids or cortisone.

Accepted Answer

Nope: You're fine to take it. It's a very bland analgesic, in the same class as aspirin. Interestingly, Seractil (dexibuprofen) is the  S-isomer of ibuprofen; ibuprofen is a mixture of the R- and S-isomers. While the S-isomer is more active, it's pretty much the same as if you take plain ibuprofen over the counter. Might be cheaper for you also.

Question 3

venlafaxine 75mg (effexor) side effect?

Accepted Answer

Effexor (venlafaxine): Like many antidepressants may cause weight gain, fatigue and sexual dysfunction. Usually mild if at all and tremendous benefits in treating depression and anxiety.

Question 4

is zoloft's dopaminergic effect dose dependant like effexor's noradrenalinergic effect?

Accepted Answer

Zoloft (sertraline): Yes it is. Dopamin reuptake inhibition increases as dose increase.

Question 5

drug interactions between synthroid (thyroxine) and dhea?

Accepted Answer

No, but: There is no medical reason to take dhea for any known medical problem. It is metabolized to estrogen, testosterone and cortisone - and you can't control which it goes to. Plus most of the dhea supplements have very little active ingredient in them. Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet. Dhea is worthless, and potentially harmful.

Question 6

does flutamide ( antiandrogen) interact with synthroid (thyroxine)?

Accepted Answer

No it doesn't: But your medication list notes both synthroid (with is a quality brand-name levothyroxine) as well as levothyroxine. Hopefully, you're not taking both. The brand name synthroid is the better product of the two.

Question 7

does effexor (venlafaxine) block acetylcholine receptors?

Accepted Answer

No: Effexor (venlafaxine) blocks serotonin and norepinephrine re-uptake receptors.

Question 8

does prozac (fluoxetine) raise klonopin levels?

Accepted Answer

Unlikely: Good question. No blood level effects between Prozac (fluoxetine) and Klonopin that I could find.

Question 9

does hydroxyzine hcl boost the opiate drug effect?

Accepted Answer

Apparently, yes.: Hydroxyzine is used with opioid analgesics to increase their pain-killing ability of a given dose of opioid, and lower the quantity needed to stop a given level of pain, and/or stop some side effects of opioids like itching, nausea, and vomiting.

Question 10

does alprazolam 0.5 mg (prescription drug) contain maoi?

Accepted Answer

Xanax (alprazolam): Alprazolam is a benzodiazepine and works differently then a MAOI
