Avatar n tn This could be the reason why. A 15 mg Morphine is actually stronger than a 5mg Oxycodone. So putting you on a 30mg was really a huge jump. I can see why you couldn't work. I hope that the 10 mg works though..
Avatar n tn Well, the patient's pain might be from neuropathy on top of everything else, but what you're describing sounds exactly like constipation, which you indeed said he got empacted, and it happens to patients who spend a lot of time laying down (exercise helps bowels move better), OR patients who take certain medicines and supplements. For me, I had the same thing happen to me when I busted my back in a wreck and had to lay still for two months, I got empacted the same way, twice.
535089 tn?1400673519 My understanding is that this study was done for the purpous of drug testing and why in some cases the drug came up negative in tests. Also I think that Morphine is a much stronger drug than Oxycodone. It is my opinion that Morphine controls pain on a much better level.....Thank's for your input. It's appreciated.
Avatar n tn I dont see how it could show up different, since the active drug in both oxycodone and oxycontin is the same drug, oxycodone. Oxycontin has been formulated where part of the drug is released as soon as you take it and the rest is made do dissolve more slowly. Thats why your not supposed to chew or break the tablet. It's like taking morphine IR or morphine ER. They will both show up as morphine.
Avatar n tn Just a quick correction...Percocet is oxycodone with Acetaminophen, and Percodan is Oxycodone with Aspirin, not Tylenol. There are other, less common combinations, like Vicoprofen, which would be Hydrocodone with Ibuprofen instead of Tylenol (Acetaminophen). Vicodin, Norco, Lortab are all Hydrocodone. Dilaudid comes both in oral and injectable forms, with doses starting at usually 1 mg. Fentanyl patches typically start at 25 mcg/hr (micrograms). I have seen lower doses, 12.
Avatar f tn Welcome TTC Actually, clean opiates, once off them and through the w/d don't leave permanent damage. At least I know that is true for plain morphine, oxycodone because it is synthetic I don't know... that is just the body. The emotional, mental aspects can take longer, but I found after 10 years of addiction to morphine, once I was off I felt completely normal after about 6 months... Functional after 1 month. The first 2 weeks off I was very messed up.
Avatar f tn s less potent than Morphine. It is also better for a taper. Oxycodone will allow you to drop to a 5mg tab instead of a 15mg tab with Morphine. I also feel that you'll get better pain control with the Oxycodone. This is just my opinion. Good luck with everything.
Avatar f tn I eventually had the Doctor switch me back to the Oxycodone. 15mg Morphine is equivalent to 5mg of Oxycodone, so you might need to take both tabs of the Morphine to get the same relief. I hope this helps.
Avatar n tn Roxicodone is a brand; oxycodone is the generic. I'm not sure if roxicodone has Tylenol in it (Percocet does; oxycodone does not.) I don't find morphine helpful for my pain. It also gave me a constant, dull headache, which wouldn't go away with ibuprofen or Tylenol. Oxycodone works best for my pain. I gave up the long-acting meds totally for a number of reasons. I may use them again but for now, I'm okay with the oxycodone and other non-narcotic things.
Avatar n tn I am an Engineer that has worked in the industry for over 12 years. The last 6 years I have been on pain medications. First Tramadol and then vicodin, and now morphine and percocet. I continue to do a great job and produce fantastic products. My managers know about my chronic pain and are very accepting of the pain medications I take as they don't affect my job performance and they know that I am responsible with my meds.
Avatar n tn Oxycodone is not metabolised into codeine or morphine (which are the two chemicals tested for in standard opiate urine tests). Urine Testing Opiates are one of the "SAMHSA-5". The five drugs tested for in the standard NIDA approved drug test. The standard tests are a one step rapid qualitative immunoassay for the detection of opiate and opiate metabolites in urine.
3524676 tn?1365520876 The withdrawals were not as bad as long as I took Oxycodone, but I was still going through them. Now today is day two of NOTHING. I am losing my mind. I can't hardly sleep, can't keep still, feel jittery, night sweats, runny nose, excessive sneezing, and major anxiety has set in. I'm not sure I am doing the right thing, due to my diagnosis.
Avatar n tn Well you will get a lot of debate here but I think the oxy is the harder of the 2 morphine has a short 1/2 life nether one is going to be any fun but we do home detoxes all the time we can walk you threw one you may want to go to the lower right of this page and look up the Thomas recipe and pick up the stuff suggested might want to add some highland restful legs stuff in there to....
Avatar m tn I found an article that said a small amount of codeine may show up in patients taking high doses of morphine due to possible impurities in manufacturing. Is this correct? Has anyone else run in to this?? My wife does not take any illicit medications so we are perplexed over this result and are wondering what her doctor is going to do, if anything, at her next appointment next month, 12/2016! Her doses are 45mgs of morphine sulfate ER two times a day and 5mgs of oxycodone three times a day.
Avatar f tn not exactly..oxy in theory is a bit stronger than hydro..and sub is a different type of narcotic than the other 2..but conversoin charts do compare the strength of sub to other narcotics..but it is not really the effect they r comparing//but the strength...i do believe there is a conversion chart in avisg's journal...
Avatar f tn Be careful of all that Tylenol. They are taking Hydrocodone off the market all together and replacing it with a long acting med called ZoHydro. it is Vicodin without the tylenol 500 mg of tylenol is way way too much for your liver to handle. I am on Roxy's which is oxycodone 30 mg no aspirin they do fine and for the long acting i am using Morphine Sulphate.
Avatar n tn at least he will be in a special hospital where they will be more prepared to help him. hang in there. i know its hard my son is only 4 months old and i was so worried the whole time i was pregnant that i was going to harm him but i was in the same situation as you constant pain, unable to sleep because of it. its a terrible thing to have to deal with every day of your life..
Avatar n tn Morphine 15mg, Oxycodone 10/325mg, Xanax .25 mg, and Zoloft 100mg. I have been taking the Morphine and Oxy 3xs/day, 8am, 2pm and 8pm. I take my Zoloft at 8am and my Xanax at 8pm. I also take a stool softener for constipation and have to take Tylenol now and then when I get the Morphine headache. Now that I have read several questions and answers, I will no longer take the Morphine and Oxy together, I didn't realize that they are the same thing basically.
Avatar f tn How hard on the liver is morphine I was just told 1/4 of my liver is gone. and the viroal count is over 17 million.
Avatar f tn I think oxycodone is far superior when compared with morphine (as far as how well it works for pain. I would ask your doctor to just switch you back" to the "oxy 15s" when you are able to,. you can always take tylenol with your oxycodone, which magically turns them into them into a "strong percocet". When you said the morphine "doesn't seem very strong", what do you mean by saying that exactly? I'm just curious, just like your doctor.
