go to drugs.com and you can check interactions of medicines. I believe Advil and naproxen sodium are safe - but you can research this.

I like this drug site... sm
http://prescriptiondrug-info.com/
There is a little pop-up but just close it. It will also do part of the drug name, i.e., "cillin" or "exadine". 
Here's a good drug web site for you
http://www.pdrhealth.com/drug_info/index.html
FDA drug site & DocBoard
This one for drugs--especially the new stuff:
http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/drugsatfda/index.cfm
And this one for MDs, PAs, and osteopaths:
http://www.docboard.org/
Actosplus MET according to drug site
I try to avoid using Google for drugs because there is no way of knowing how old the information is and half of the time it has been added before the drug has been approved so the name may have changed.
You might want to add this drug website to your Favorites: rxlist.com
I typed in “actos plus met” in the Find a Drug and this is what came up:
Actoplus MET™
(pioglitazone hydrochloride and metformin hydrochloride tablets)
Actoplus MET (pioglitazone hydrochloride and metformin hydrochloride) tablets contain two oral antihyperglycemic drugs used in the management of type 2 diabetes: pioglitazone hydrochloride and metformin hydrochloride.
Hope this helped.

Thanks! Lost my favorites
you're just one who does not need interaction...
"Leave me alone and let me do my work" like a grumpy old lady.
I need the social interaction too -
I have been applying for jobs in town everywhere, not necessarily in the medical field, but I am also spoiled - I get to thinking about it and wonder whether I really want to work 20 hours a week for 6 dollars when I could make that in 3 hours at home...
So, I decided I was going to go back to college part time and get a degree in something that would pay me what I make in transcription and give me the option of getting out of my house and meeting people and becoming human again.
I loved my job for a long time, but lately it is taking a toll on my health and emotional welfare. I have a degenerative joint problem in which the doctor told me I would be better off as the door greeter at Walmart than sitting in this darn chair all the time... I am becoming withdrawn from the world, I have gained lots of weight, and just feel down and depressed all the time.
It's time for me to "get a life" before I get too old and have these same problems with age discrimination.
Good drug book vs. internet drug sites
I need to buy a new drug book. At a prior job, about a year ago, one of the supervisors told me she used the internet exclusively. What's the consensus and if you prefer the internet, which site or sites do you like. Thanks in advance.

DRUG ELUDING?DRUG ELUTING?
Okay...sock it to me..when I was even newer than I am now, I wrote "drug alluding stent." QA sent a correction saying "drug eluding stent." NOW, I see on Google, "drug eluting stent." SOoooo, which is it, or are they both correct? Thanks ahead of time.
Help on the drug board--osteoporosis drug?
Sorry..........thanks in advance, I appreciate it. 
Several companies still train on site. In fact, we are piloting an on-site training sm
program, where everyone would come in to the Keystrokes office to train for 1 or 2 weeks. We have a large training room and feel that this may be a way to cover all aspects of an account, be right there to answer questions as they come up and have one-on-one contact.
It will be optional at this point and may not be more effective as remote training, but some people have expressed that they miss the training that you get when you start at a hospital.
We are trying to bridge that gap between working in-house somewhere and working at home.
It may seem out-dated in many ways, but sometimes going back to basics is a good step to take!
I have noticed sometimes I will try to get into a web site and that site will freeze up and I dont
know if I have too many screens opened up and minimized or what. I tried to open a website sent by email and froze up the email screen. Not sure what I am doing.
I subscribe to another web site and within the boards on this site they have
Would anybody be interested if adminstrators would allow us to have this type of board or even put it on the main board. Like on this other board they tell you to go to a certain web site for a coupon for 20% off Barnes and Noble or when Target has reduced prices on seasonal things. Anybody got ideas or bargains they would like to share to save money? We could call it the MT Stars penny-pinchers board.
What are you asking? Is this a drug--yes, sm

Can you help me with a drug? (sm)
sounds like "paraphosaphine". I looked on every cancer site I knew, looked pyra, pira, fosa, phene, fene. Couldn't find it anywhere. Did I miss it?
Thanks
It is drug-eluting, so there QA!!!
Yes, drug-eluting...
The company I work for gives daily info e-mails and actually got one on this a few months ago - is common to transcribe eluding or alluding if you haven't heard it before. 
Drug-Eluting
As they say on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire", drug-eluting............FINAL ANSWER!!!

best drug help website
Would be interested which is your fave drug reference source on the web for spellings, dosages, etc. - preferably one that doesn't result in tons of spam for illegal drug purchases - is there such a place?
Drug Screens
You are right! I would not be offended if asked to take a drug test - nothing to hide. I do not want someone having privy to my personal info who is on drugs and acting irresponsible. Had my identity stolen once, it is a nightmare to get straightened out. Don't want my SS# and other private info going to other countries either.

drug list
Does anyone know of a site to download/print a drug list (quarterly drug index)? The one I have is old and the IDI I have is from 1999.

drug reference
I always use Drugs@FDA. I have it in my favorites: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/drugsatfda/
You can look up drug names by using as few as three letters. I find it's quick and efficient, and it's free, and because it's the FDA it's the latest info on drugs.
Help on drug board if you have second :O)
thanks.
Get a drug that you can sue the manufacturer for later. sm
Get cured now, get rich later. Check out the lawyers' ads on late night TV. "Did you take this drug? Are you still alive, just barely? Then call this toll free number now before you die so we can collect a settlement for you." Good luck.
Need help on drug board, please. TIA :)

Drug sites
What are some favorite drug sites? Thanks in advance.
Drug sites
My favorite is rxlist.com
Rx drug card
I have one that's only $4.95 a month, and it's fabulous!! When I first applied for it online, I had 3 prescriptions waiting for me that were close to $60, but I paid less than $20 for them because the card was active within an hour after I ordered it!!
Drug Screen
Well, I thought that you listed drugs you too also, but they said it didn't matter. If anything at all came up they wouldn't let me have the job. I even showed them the bottle in my purse, and they said it just didn't matter, legal drugs or otherwise. Oh well, lesson learned I guess. Thanks for response.
drug expansions
How you set up your expansions for drugs?
I use the first three letters and the last letter. For example, for Plavix, I would set it up as plax. Also, for drugs that I type frequently, I sometimes shorten it more - Lasix is lx.
I want to add dosages also, but I'm undecided how I want to do it. I would love to hear how others do it. Thanks in advance for sharing your ideas and suggestions.
QL DRUG REF 2007 . . . WHAT DO YOU USE INSTEAD
I have always used Stedman's QL electronic drug search reference material. I loaded my 2007 and discovered that they have built in something called a Launch Ready Reference Bookshelf that completely changes the way the drug reference works now. One thing that is missing is the fuzzy search, which I have always loved and used tremendously. I called Tech Support at Lippincott and at Stedman's and they both tell me that it is no longer part of the program and this new Bookshelf is going to be linked to all of their electronic products -- hence no fuzzy search. So, my question is, what is everyone else using. I have the Saunder's Pharmaceutical Word Book 2007 and I hate it as well, it takes too long to load and uses too much RAM to leave loaded.
Hope someone else has found an answer.
