Climara Pro Weekly Patch


Pronunciation: ESS-truh-DIE-ole/LEE-voe-nor-jes-trel
Generic Name: Estradiol/Levonorgestrel
Brand Name: Climara Pro

Estrogens have been reported to increase the chance of womb (endometrial) cancer. Estrogen-containing products should not be used to prevent heart disease or dementia. Estrogen given alone or in combination with another hormone (progestin) for replacement therapy may increase your risk for heart disease (eg, heart attacks), stroke, serious blood clots in the legs (deep vein thrombosis) or lungs (pulmonary embolism), dementia, or breast cancer. These risks appear to depend on the length of time Climara Pro Weekly Patch is used and the amount of estrogen per dose. Therefore, Climara Pro Weekly Patch should be used for the shortest possible length of time at the lowest effective dose, so that you obtain the benefits and minimize the chance of serious side effects from long-term treatment. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for details.

The combination of cholecalciferol, genistein, and zinc chelazome is a medical food product. It is used to slow the metabolic processes that cause bone loss and may lead to osteoporosis.

Chlorcyclizine/Codeine Liquid


Pronunciation: klor-SYE-klih-zeen/KOE-deen
Generic Name: Chlorcyclizine/Codeine
Brand Name: Notuss-NX


Chlorcyclizine/Codeine Liquid is used for:

Relieving runny nose; sneezing; itching of the nose or throat; itching, watery eyes; and cough caused by colds, upper respiratory infections, and allergies. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.


Chlorcyclizine/Codeine Liquid is an antihistamine and narcotic cough suppressant combination. The antihistamine works by blocking the action of histamine, which helps reduce symptoms, such as watery eyes and sneezing. The cough suppressant works in the brain to help decrease the cough reflex, which reduces a dry cough.


Do NOT use Chlorcyclizine/Codeine Liquid if:


  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Chlorcyclizine/Codeine Liquid or any other codeine- or morphine-related medicine (eg, oxycodone)

  • you are unable to urinate or are having an asthma attack

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
