NO, mixing Singular (a luekotriene blocker) with Claritin (an H1 histamine blocker) will not cause an allergic reaction, and many many people take both drugs without any problems. And generic drugs are the basically the same as name-brand, so that isn't the problem. She may be allergic to something in the Claritin, or it could have been an allergic reaction to something else.. Most likely food or another medication considering the symptoms. Obviously she already has allergies or mast cell problems since she is taking Singular and an antihistamine to begin with....

There is a codeine and calcium iodide cough syrup with the trade name Calcidrine (ref. 1). Calcium iodide and iodinated glycerol happen to be included together in a list of medicines your physician should be notified about if you are using them in conjunction with lithium (ref. 2), but they are not the same thing. Calcium iodide does not appear to have a synonym (ref. 3).

I would read the back of the product lable.  If this does not provide the answers, try contacting the company who makes it and ask.  Or, you can ask your docter/dermatologist.

hey, didnt find any formula (dont know if there's one myself)\nhope this information works 4 u\n\nOseltamivir (INN) (IPA: [ɒsɛlˈtæmɪvir]) is an antiviral drug that is used in the treatment and prophylaxis of both Influenzavirus A and Influenzavirus B. Like zanamivir, oseltamivir is a neuraminidase inhibitor. It acts as a transition-state analogue inhibitor of influenza neuraminidase, preventing new viruses from emerging from infected cells.\n\nOseltamivir was the first orally active neuraminidase inhibitor commercially developed. It is a prodrug, which is hydrolysed hepatically to the active metabolite, the free carboxylate of oseltamivir (GS4071). It was developed by Gilead Sciences and is currently marketed by Hoffmann-La Roche (Roche) under the trade name Tamiflu. It is generally available by prescription only.\n\nWith increasing fears about the potential for a new influenza pandemic, oseltamivir has received substantial media attention. Production capacity is limited, and governments (and even some private individuals) are stockpiling the drug.\n\nCommon adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with oseltamivir therapy include: nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, and headache. Rare ADRs include: hepatitis and elevated liver enzymes, rash, allergic reactions including anaphylaxis, and Stevens-Johnson syndrome. (Rossi, 2006)\n\nVarious other ADRs have been reported in postmarketing surveillance including: toxic epidermal necrolysis, cardiac arrhythmia, seizure, confusion, aggravation of diabetes, and haemorrhagic colitis.

Both can kill you just as effectively. :(\nIf one must use hormonal contraception, I would opt for the one you can stop at will and has the smaller risk/number of side effects. The depro can't be countered once injected = you suffer the concequences no matter what they are for however long it takes your body to do it.\nThe Depro Shot is associated with more bone loss than menopause; twice as much as what occours with BCPs. It is associated with a wide variety of serious health complications including adrenal failure.\nALL hormonal contraceptives can cause HypoThyroid symptoms b/c the synthetic hormones suppress thyroid hormones. It has a similar problem with Diabetics.

Many antihistamines, however, cause drowsiness, so when combined with the sedating effects of alcohol, feelings of drowsiness are magnified. Recently, scientists have developed antihistamines, such as loratidine and certrizine, that cause less drowsiness than their predecessors. However, people who use these non-drowsy antihistamines need to be aware of possible incidents of low blood pressure and physical falls among the elderly. Keeping this in mind, one may want to refrain from or limit any alcohol use while taking antihistamines.\nAlcohol changes how medications, including antihistamines, become accessible to the human body. For example, if a person takes an antihistamine while drinking one to several alcoholic drinks over the course of four to five hours (acute drinking), the same metabolizing enzymes that process the antihistamine will attempt to metabolize the alcohol, as well. This exchange could reduce the progression of antihistamines being absorbed into the bloodstream, making the antihistamine less effective. On the other end of the spectrum, long-term drinkers may constantly activate the same enzymes used to metabolize antihistamines that also process alcohol. A chronic drinker, in this case, could develop a tolerance to antihistamines, and it would take more of the antihistamines to be effective.\n\nMost warning labels on antihistamines state not to take them if one imbibes more than three alcoholic drinks daily. Having said this, there is no available research stating exactly how long one needs to avoid alcohol after taking an antihistamine or vice-versa. User information warns about respiratory arrest and death caused by an overdose of antihistamines. Warning labels on antihistamines also caution against the possibility of toxic chemical build-up in the liver as a result of the chemical by-products from mixing antihistamines and alcohol.\n\nSimilarly, it is important not only not to drive when you drink alcohol, but also not to drive or expect your body to respond with quick reflexes if you drink and use antihistamines.\n\nTo be safe, it's healthier and less risky not to mix antihistamines and alcohol. Interactions of alcohol and medications are estimated to be involved in possibly at least 25 percent of emergency room admissions.\n\nIt's in your best interest to discuss your concerns with your prescribing medical provider.

I believe that lortab contains acetaminophen and codeine. The first of the two active ingredients can be found in most over the counter pain relievers i.e. Tylenol....and is not commonly among the drugs tested for in a urinalysis. The other is the problem codeine can stay in the system up to thirty days in some cases and as little as 48 hrs in other cases. This depends on the many factors including weight and diet. My suggestion be honest and tell the testing facility the truth....also drink plenty and i emphasize this plenty of water. It will help your body rid itself of any remaining codeine a little quicker if you are well hydrated. Think of it this way...more water more urine less codeine! Hope this helps.
