Common Questions and Answers about Can you take percocet and xanax

percocet

Avatar f tn She has also taken 1 gram of Xanax. Is that safe? Can you take the both together? She is a very good friend of mine and I really just want to make sure she's going to be ok. They're typically low doses, but 2 different pills at the same time. She took the gram of Xanax about 15 minutes ago, I tried to talk her out of it, but being a recovering addict myself, I guess my advice is worthy for her. Please can someone tell me if this combination is ok?
Avatar f tn I have found that Valium added with the Percocet I take increases the pain relief that I experience. Since you got some relief from the Percocet, staying on the Percocet with Xanax could provide even more pain relief than just with Xanax alone. Also, I wanted to mention that Ativan is a lot more potent than Xanax. I was prescribed Ativan to help with Tramadol withdrawal as I needed to get off of that medication as it stopped working.
Avatar m tn The Valium is used basically to calm you and allow you to get some sleep, so the xanax would probably be ok. BUT A WARNING; Use these as little as possible, only as needed for a short time. They are a Benzo and addictive. If you use to much for to long, you'll get hooked on that and you cannot, under any circumstances go cold turkey with a benzo due to seizures and death. So if you use the xanax, use it spareingly and not for a long time, a week to 10 days.
Avatar m tn w/d's last bout 5 to 7 days. You can take valium but only at night to help you sleep and only for about 4 day or you will be back in the same boat you are trying to get out of. How many are you taking? 16 days not very long you should w/d quicker T.

Avatar f tn Hello I am going to go off a 3 year 4 -6 a day Percocet habit on Friday alone .. I have to do this for myself my children and my new job that I start in two weeks . My dr recently prescribed me Xanax and celexa for anxiety and depression but I was to scared to tell him about the pills I have been taking ... I have not started the celexa because I am scared it will interact with the Percocet and haven't taken Amy Xanax because i haven't needed it ..
Avatar f tn Wow, great job with the taper. I understand the panic disorder and attacks from opiate wtihdrawal. They have led me to relapsing a few times. I agree with Vicki. If you only have them on hand to take for the occasional panic attack, I don't see the harm. Just realize that they are highly addictive and the withdrawals from benzos are worse than opiates.
Avatar f tn Im not a doctor so dont take this as a professional opinion, ok. What I would do and have done in the past is half that to 7.5mg. You should do alright with that. What was your top dose when not tapering? Good work on the effort.
Avatar f tn I feel for you. Hopefully you found an alternative to the Xanax for anxiety if that is the issue. Managing pain and the issues of anxiety or depression is so hard and I'm sorry you have been going through this. I'm here to talk to you if you need it. sending you hugs.
Avatar m tn hey maybe you can tell me what would be good to take for pain I had ADR surgery 4 years ago, since then they have been switching my meds around and I want to stop taking anything with Tylenol in it. They have me on 30 mg oxycontin, twice daily, 10/325 percocet 6 a day, soma 4 times daily and xanax 2 mg for anxiety. What are my options for the breakthrough pain, that is what I am taking the percocet for and I need to stop with the Tylenol already enough is enough.
Avatar f tn Xanax- Oh I remember the first time I tried them - they did absolutely nothing to me exept make me sleepy. I actually threw them away! Then like a year clean off opiates via sub, my sub doc recommends a cut in the sub and I became so anxious and I told a generalist about my axiety and he recommended the xanax. So I took it combined with sub and I didn't take .5 mg / 2x a year, instead I can take 8mg all at once.
Avatar f tn My biggest concern for you is that you just stopped the xanax. This is a benzo and should be tappered from very slowly, due to the possiblity of seizures and stroke. How long have you been on the xanax? As far as the other stuff, look into the Health pages for the Thomas receipe, that will help alittle. There is no magic cure for withdrawels except time. Please respond back about the xanax. Going cold turkey from this can be extremely dangerous.
Avatar f tn 'cets are evil. If they help your migraines, accept that you might use them for the rest of your life. There's no cure for migraines and science doesn't know what causes them. If they're getting you a buzz, and you take them for a buzz, then watch out. Also, drink a glass of prune juice every day or take stoll softeners. Percs *will* cause constipation. Just tellin' you like it is.
Avatar f tn You are clearly either under medicated and/or are on the wrong meds. Is there another pain clinic you can call and check out? Your second issue is finding a surgeon who will do your hip replacements. When I went for the joint in my thumb, I was stunned. For years I had terrible pain but the ortho I was seeing kept giving me cortisone shots. I finally went for a second opinion who told me there was nothing left of the joint and the bones were all broken.
Avatar f tn i am having a horrible tooth ache its my wisdom tooth it needs to be pulled but it cant be extracted until wednesday so this morning i took a vicodin 750 mg but i dnt have any left when the pain kicks back in can i take a percocet 10 mg and it want interact with the vic in my body thanx for your time
Avatar f tn This CanHelp bozo seems akin to an ambulance chasing lawyer. How tacky, even if (and that's a big IF) this clown is legit the fact he is plugging his suboxone clinic here to try and generate some dough is distasteful and plain tacky. And I agree, there are tons of people who have tapered off of percs. To say it can't be done is wrong..you think a "doctor" would know better. And Xanax as prescribed can be extremely helpful in the early days of detox.
Avatar n tn My legs will not stop moving and I am tired but I can not sleep...I refuse to take any more pills to sleep but I have slept maybe an hour the past two days and still working does anyone have any other advice...I feel i have been fortunate i have not had any flu like syptoms during the day and still go to the gym 6 days a week its just at night I can not rest and i have feelings of anxiety during the day which I have .5 xanax to help with....
Avatar f tn I HAVE HEPATITIS C, TOOK TREATMENT AND WAS A COMPLETE RESPONDER, IN REMISSION FOR 6 YEARS. I INJURED BOTH LEGS AND HAVE BEEN ON PERCOCET 10, XANAX AND ALSO BP MEDS. I WANT OFF NOW! I HAVE TEENAGED BOYS WHO NEED ME NOW. I NEED AND WANT MY LIFE BACK. PLEASE HELP ME! HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE AND HOW BAD WILL I FEEL TO GO COLD TURKEY OFF PERCOCET? I HAVE BEEN ON IT FOR APPROX 2 YEARS. WHAT ABOUT THE XANAX? I AM SO SORRY TO READ EVERYONE'S STORIES...
Avatar f tn Are you alone in all this? Looking at your name I'm going to assume your a mom....yes/no? These psychotic episodes sound very dangerous? Just wondering, you stated that your tapering, is it b/c your ready to quit? Or are you just trying to lower your dose? That seems life a lot of different medicines together, which I can't imagine is a good combination? Not to be too blunt, but are you looking to die?
Avatar m tn Please keep in touch and send more info because it will help people give you the help you need. I know percocet and xannax. Both can be withdrawn from but xannax in particular must be tapered and is the harder although different WD. Again we really need to know how much you have been taking and for how long. Also is there alcohol involved as well? Withdrawal on your own is what most of us do here. People will give you lots of guidance. It is extremely important to stop using.
Avatar f tn Hi there 03! Congrats on kicking this thing earlier than most. You are probably gonna have wd symptoms for 5 to 7 days or maybe less If you've been on them a couple months and never had other major wd before you may have get over it quicker. Expect headaches, sleeplessness, stomach issues. Basically a bad case of the flu. That being said, u can get through it! The longer u wait the longer it lasts! Get some vitamins, OTC sleep aids or melatonin and take hot baths with Epsom salt.
