Effexor XR Before starting Effexor XR, tell your doctor about any medicines you\'re taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements. If you take MAOIs you should not take Effexor XR. If you are taking antidepressants you should be watched closely for signs that your condition is getting worse or that you are becoming suicidal, especially when you first start therapy, or when your dose is increased or decreased. You should also be watched for becoming agitated, irritable, hostile, impulsive, or restless. Such symptoms should be reported to your doctor right away. Effexor XR may raise blood pressure in some patients, so blood pressure should be monitored regularly. When you suddenly stop using or quickly lower your daily dose of Effexor XR, discontinuation symptoms may occur. Talk to your doctor before discontinuing or reducing your dose of Effexor XR. Pregnant or nursing women shouldn\'t take any antidepressant without consulting their doctor. Until you see how Effexor XR affects you, be careful doing such activities as driving a car or operating machinery. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Effexor XR.

Elimite is used for the treatment of scabies.
Massage the skin from the head to the soles of the feet with Elimite. 30 grams should be sufficient for an application. Wash the cream off after 8 to 14 hours. Do not apply to open cuts or wounds. This could cause too much medication to be absorbed by your body. Talk to your doctor before taking this medicine if you are breast-feeding. Elimite may pass into breast-milk.
