Is aspirin a brand name?

Yes...or at least it can be.

While both contain "acetylsalicylic acid" (ASA) as active drug and the effect on the body is the same when first bought, the differences come in longevity. Multiple studies show that Bayer does not degrade as fast as the generic.

Go smell that year old bottle of aspirin in the closet. It'll smell like vinegar since its degraded to a similar form to vinegar. Bayer degrades much slower while the off brand degrades rapidly.

Spend the small extra for Bayer if you need to take daily aspirin. That's your life. Just using it for occasional pain? I'm sure the off-brand is fine.

Can you take T5 diet pills which contain ephedrine caffeine and aspirin whilst taking the antidepressant venlafaxine?

Combining T5 diet pills, which contain ephedrine, caffeine, and aspirin, with the antidepressant venlafaxine is not recommended without consulting a healthcare professional. The combination may increase the risk of side effects such as increased heart rate, hypertension, or anxiety. Additionally, venlafaxine can also raise blood pressure, which could be exacerbated by the stimulants in the diet pills. Always consult a doctor or pharmacist before mixing medications or supplements.

You had a popliteal nerve block on Thurs for your foot fusion surgery How long should you feel numb before Icall your doc?

The answer depends upon whether the anesthesiologist or anesthetist chose a particular type, concentration and volume of local anesthetic for the purpose of only preventing the pain of the surgery itself, say one to three hours, or if the purpose of the block was also to prevent postoperative surgical pain for as long as possible after the surgery as well. In the latter case, 24 to 48 hours, rarely 72 hours may pass before all of the sensation and full strength returns to the lower leg. Usually, however, depending on the above mentioned factors, as well as specifics of the technique used such as the location(s) and number of injections, the training and experience of the person performing the block, 18 to 24 hours is more typical. After four days, if part of the lower leg or foot remains numb or weak, your doctor or anesthesia provider should probably be notified.

2GRAIN of aspirin contain how many milligram?

The "grain" is an older method or measuring weight, from the outdated "apothecary" system of weight measurements. The "grain" was originally based on some agreed upon weight of a single grain of a certain plant (and therefore not universally reliable). However, you may still see the abbreviation "gr." on some medication bottles, next to or underneath the more modern equivalent in milligrams (mg). The modern equivalent is as follows: 1 grain = 65 mg (milligrams) (although 60 mg or 64.8 mg is sometimes used to equal "1 grain" for certain prescription medications). For non-prescription drugs such as Tylenol (acetaminophen) or aspirin: 1 grain = 65 mg therefore 2 grains = 130 mg

5 grains = 325 mg (one "regular strength" adult Tylenol or aspirin tablet in the USA) 10 grains = 650 mg A few other medications that have been around a long time, such as sodium bicarbonate tablets or phenobarbital tablets, are still still sometimes labeled with both mg and grain equivalents. These are simply hold-overs from decades ago when physicians wrote prescriptions using apothecary weight measurements. In modern healthcare, "grains" or "gr" as a measurement unit should never be used, for safety reasons. Measurement should be given in grams, milligrams, micrograms, or other appropriate metric measurement. Medication mistakes have happened because a physician's abbreviation of "gr" may be interpreted as either "gram" or "grain"... which are vastly different weight amounts!

Can you give a dog aspirin or tylonol or alleve?

Dogs can have aspirin, but it should only be given according to a vet's directions.

Tylenol, definitely, NEVER. It's poisonous to dogs. I don't specifically know about Alleve, but it doesn't seem worth risking.
