I guess its generic. The pharmacist told me to take it with food. It also seems to cause the jitters with me, so I have to take it early. I was up until 3 last night.

wonder if your doctor can prescribe 0.5mg. Ativan for that anxiety with the drug? I\'d mention it to him.

Re:I hate to ask the gross questions, but...

Red.. coming to this discussion late, but I did have an infection early on with my RC a few antibiotics and it was gone. One thing I do is drink lots and lots of Cranberry juice, you can buy diet for lower calorie or dilute the regular, but I was told this helps with infection and also with the amount of mucous.

Hope that helps

A caveat about cranberry juice...read the label!!! \"Cranberry juice cocktail\" ISN\'T cranberry juice!! You will be surprised. Real cranberry juice (usually found in the health food or organic aisle) is much more expensive and very puckery!! Dilutes well with sparkling water.
