can you take percocet with tramadol

Hi. I take it you've not tried plain old paracetamol + ibuprofen to see of that'll help? If you have a history of addiction it's not 100% safe to have what can be an addictive med. However it MUST NOT be taken with alcohol so if you do take tramadol and it helps the pain and you don't drink then that's great. But if you slip up then you must stop and find another way for the pain.

Hey there.....I don't know about percocet but I took tramadol with vicodin before. I take tramadol and my script was running out before I could get it refilled so I took the vicodin to help make what tramadol I had left, last. So, medically I think it wouldn't hurt anything to take them. You just have to be very careful with tramadol! I am in the process of trying to ween off of it and my dr.

most pain meds are in the vicodin family...so odds are, if you cant take one..you wont be able to take any of the others.

It is important that you be honest with him so he can help you the right way. Withdrawals can be tough but we get through them. Switching from one pill to another is like switching from Jack Daniels to beer. It still gets me drunk. There's lots of great folk here that can give you good suggestions. Stick around and check the place out. Good luck!!

I'm worried! My fiancee' has been prescribed Tramadol, which worked very well for him but he has gone through 40 pills in 10 days and the way his dr. wrote his script it says "use 1-2 tablets every 8 hours as needed" so he cannot get a refill for another 2 weeks. He saw a local dr. who prescribed Flexeril, Percocet and Naproxen.

I think you should get back on the suboxone and not take the tramadol. How long were you taking the subs? Why did you start taking the tramadol right away? that doesnt really make sense, are you ready to be clean?

You must take a suggestion from your orthopedic surgeon as he can better suggest you what is good for you.

I was prescribed Tramadol today as a substitute for percocet. This seems to be some confusing medication. The horror stories have made me a bit fearfull. My situation is this; I was addicted to heroin for nearly ten years and had been clean for the last 6 years. About three months ago I was in an auto accident. I have been suffering terrible neck/spine pain since. Immediately after the accident, my orthopaedic doctor put me on percocet.

I need more! More information! http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_bad_is_Tramadol_withdrawal Question - How bad is Tramadol WIthdrawal? Answer - Ultram (Tramadol) Withdrawal Tramadol is highly addictive. Normally your doctor would reduce intake slowly. Various withdrawal effects may include shakes, shivers, diarrhea, nausea, and possible flu-like symptoms. Not all people experience will all withdrawal symptoms, and some people may experience others not listed here.

I take no more than 15 mgs of Percot. (Not EveryDay) sometimes id take 10 or less. And when i have no percocet i take 50mgs of tramadol (Maybe100mgs) reason being i THINK i have Accute IBS of course they cant properly diagnose me while im pregnant nor treat me. Ive been to multiple ERs trying to find some kind of solution and NOTHING. The pain is so severe i feel like crawling up in a ball. Everyyyyyday non stop. Thats why i started taking the medication.

I take 2 50 mg Tramadol daily and have been for 4 yrs for my lower back and knees. I'd advise taking Metamucil and eat foods with plenty of fiber if you plan to take Tramadol for long periods. Now there are days I skip taking Tramadol and just take a rapid release Tylenol which gets me through days I'm not hurting as much.

I agree with backhurtz. IF you do that, you'll get kicked out of your pain management program. You have to do it ONLY their way. And your old medication is old. Give it back at a medication take back program (our fire department does it every 6 months. ) or flush them. Then you aren't tempted and no one can find them and get hurt with them. Follow your pain contact to a T.

I'm sorry but you are wrong. Tramadol can be addicting or cause dependence and can be very hard to come off. They also have some side effects, like all meds. They are good for mild to moderate pain but, again, the composition of this med makes me not want anything to do with it.

Vicodin,Percocet and Fentanyl was simpler to come off than Tramadol. Just my opinion but stay away from Tramadol.

I would ask your doc or pharmacist. Perhaps you would do okay with an Effexor increase? How long have you been on it, and what dose do you take?

STay away from the tram, that is some awful crap to get off of, and it sneaks up on you. Be careful. Congrats to you, you are doing great so far and just be careful with the tram.

I appreciate the fact you don't want to use percocet. I assume you're trying to stay away from narcotics, but as the Advil isn't working, there is something else that is regularly given to addicts for up to five days, called Tramadol, and in conjunction with Paracetamol. Maybe this could be the answer for your pain? Eugenol (oil of cloves) in some form is usually used by the dentist. Here's a website that contains useful info on treating your dry socket.

Then the worst is probably over from the tramadol. You will be sickly for a few days. Take some immodium when you need it. Also, there is a supplement at Wal Mart called cal/mag/zinc. It helps a bunch. Also take lots of baths. I drank apple juice and gatorade for a few days. It helped leg cramps. Keep us posted....

My hubby has been on all kinds of pain killers since his plane accident on 3/22/14. He came home 1 1/2 weeks ago from the hospital with Percocet, and Oxy 10mgs for pain. He decided to take himself off Cold Turkey two days ago. He is on Motrin 600-800mgs now. Problem is he's been getting sick through out the day and now has diahrrea too. Are these symptoms of withdrawal form Narcs? Is being on Narcs for less than a month addicting at all?

I have been a heavy opiate addict since I was about 16 went from taking vicodin e every day to snorting oxycontin 80s. Withdrawls from oxys were terrible and led me to break the law as of Dec 2 2010 I was sentenced to 38 months in prison. Well I was released January 30 2014. And was doing great but somehow I got pulled back into this mess.

Can you take codeine ?

I am sorry you are having such ear pain. In my opinion you can take either pain med. The Motrin should be enough out of your immediate system it won't interact with either med. Just be cautious to stick with one and not mix them up. I hope your earache is soon better. They can be so miserable.

Hi Tramadol Warriors, Many people have come here for many years, giving support and getting support. Because I still believe that Tramadol is unique in it's ... terror and torture of humans, this thread continues. The people who can understand what you are going thru are the people who have kicked it and there's people here who come back to lend a hand. You also will never need an understanding ear as much. You can do it. You can quit. You do not need to be a slave to Tramadol.
