Therapeutic range?
The therapeutic range of a drug is the dosage range or blood plasma or serum concentration usually expected to achieve the desired therapeutic effect. This does not mean that patients may not achieve benefit at concentrations below the minimum threshold, or may not experience adverse effects if kept within the range. Whether the medication is working depends on how long you have been taking the medication and what the expected time is for the medication to be effectively working. READ MORE

Medication interaction?
Buspirone generally: Do not drink a lot of grapefruit juice or eat grapefruit because you may have more side effects from buspirone. It is best to avoid alcohol when taking buspirone. The risk of dizziness may be increased if you drink alcohol while taking buspirone. I found the following information regarding interactions with Buspirone and herbal supplements: Do not use the following: Jamaica Dogwood Kava Kava Lavender Valerian Primary Ingredients in Zantrex Black: Guarańa = No ⬌ drug interactions was found Damiana = No ⬌ drug interactions was found However, this does not necessarily mean no drug interactions exist.

Methylprednisolone medicine?
You need to take the medication as prescribed, which would be starting the medication over since the provider scripted a refill. However, steroids have a lot of long term side effects so I would recommend discussing this with the provider prior to starting a new round of the medication. READ MORE
Wine with my medicine?
A person should not take bupropion and alcohol together. This is because alcohol can intensify the possible side effects associated with bupropion. It can also increase the risk of seizures, and the consequences can sometimes be fatal. A variety of medications may also interact negatively with bupropion. Also, while recent research has shown that Wellbutrin (buproprion) and other non-stimulant drugs can reduce the characteristics of ADHD, but more studies are needed to quantify their effectiveness definitively. This is an off-label use for the medication and honestly, I am not sure how effective it is. READ MORE
Drug interactions?
There's no known interaction between Lexapro and Mucinex (guaifenesin). Mucinex is a type of drug called an expectorant. It's used to treat chest congestion and cough. Delsym (dextromethorphan), a different treatment for cough, is known to interact with Lexapro. Always check with your pharmacist if you have any questions, especially drug interactions. READ MORE
