Avatar f tn I do remember a few years ago they ( FDA or some govt agency) were talking about taking vics off of the market because of people going into liver failure with taking them and mixing with other actiminaphine containing drugs.I guess upto 7000 mgs a day of actiminaphine is ok but still I dont know why.
7682215 tn?1393326105 I've taken Norco and Tramadol before to help with ovarian cysts and other medical issues. But now I find that when my depression becomes unbearable, I tend to turn to opiates as a way to numb it all out vs cutting. I am going through an incredible amount of stress and depression. Now that I'm in my early adult years, I've started to notice the development of symptoms very typical of Bi-polar depression, which I have yet to be diagnosed and treated for, but it explains everything.
Avatar m tn The hospital staff said I neede to stop all blood thinnig drugs (aspirin, fish oil, advil, etc) but did not say anything about pain mends (Oxycontin 4mg 2x day and Norco for the breakthrough pain (10 - 50 mg per day depending) Can I take the pain meds right up to the surgery?
Avatar f tn Hi Everyone, I was just wondering if Norco, 10-325 is easier to withdraw from than Oxycontin 80mg. My friend was taking 2 oxycontin 80mg a day and told her doctor ( they were not prescribed) and she told the doctor that the only thing stopping her from quitting oxycontin was the horrible withdrawals. He put her on Norco and told her to wean down with those, and that going cold turkey off Norcos ( once she's weaned down to 5 a day) is easier than w/d from oxycontin.
725248 tn?1316162245 My pain doctor has me on 20mg oxycodone twice a day and up to 6-10/325 norco a day, prior to the oxycodone he had me on 15mg oxycontin twice a day. I am not getting any pain relief from the oxycontin or oxycodone, the norco does give me some pain relief, but am limited to 6 a day as to not damage my liver. What other long acting pain meds are out there??? I have an appointment to see my pain doctor next week, but would like to have some additional info when I go in to see him.
725248 tn?1316162245 I finally recieved a call from the psychologist, he will decide whether or not I am crazy or just addicted to the pain pills. Never have been to a psychologist before so I am kinda nervous. I have an appointment with my pain doctor on Monday and am going to ask if he will send me in for a catscan with dye and see if that shows anything more then the MRI's did. Right now they have me on 15mg oxycontin twice a day and 6- 10/325mg norco and 5mg valium.
396099 tn?1216254986 The methadone i have never found to cause ant adverse reactions.I no longer double doctor and buy oxycontin and worry about running out.In my opinion the benefits are worth the risk.
Avatar f tn hi,I'm new to this site,I use norco and soma,and I love how I feel on them,I mean LOVE!!

Avatar m tn re under age so knock it off. Second,alcohol is a depressant in and of itself. And,lastly, if you read the drug info on Paxil it clearly states that it should not be mixed with alcohol. You need to stop drinking and let the Paxil do it's job. Okay? V.
917008 tn?1251223979 This is a re-posting of a thread that resurfaced today. Wasn't my question, but there's been a bit of activity on the old thread ... see the older version for recent posts. Are hydromorphone (dilaudid) and oxymorphone (opana) addictive as oxycontin?
776363 tn?1237390379 Oxycontin, Morphine, Fentanyl and Methadone. In my opinion, I would start with the Oxycontin. It is easier to wean off of if you ever find yourself in a situation where you don't need it anymore. Remember, just be honest and tell him that you're not getting the relief from your meds at this point. Please take care and good luck with your appt.
Avatar n tn should be held accountable as well as patient. If ang72 was put on a mix of oxycodone, oxycontin, norco and lortab something must be seriously wrong with her. I believe that patient and Dr are both responsible, therefore if Ang72 abused the meds and tested positive for something she shouldn't have she needs help, not to be dropped cold turkey. If she hasn't (false positive, etc) than she should be a part of the decision when and how much to take.
1866508 tn?1333984613 t know, Percocet contains tylenol and oxycodone in immediate release form similar to the norco you take but much stronger. And Oxycontin is oxycodone in extended release form. There are also other long acting meds beside Oxycontin that you could look into such as Oxymorphone (Opana), Hydromorphone (Dilaudid), and Fentanyl which all have a potency that is greater than morphine. My appointment is Jan 3rd, I will let you know how it goes.
Avatar m tn I have had 3 back surgeries and have been on Norco 10/325 for about two years now. I started out taking 1 Norco 3 times daily. I now have to take 2 to 3 norco up to 3 times a day for the same relief. My question is that I was just perscribed Oxycontin 80 and am supposed to take 1 every 12 hours. I have not yet taken any of the Oxy for fear that 80 maybe to much. I do have a high tolerance for the norco but am kind of nervous about taking a whole oxy 80 because I have never taken them before.
Avatar n tn t know about oxycontin and methadone but i know about addiction. I will pray for you and i hope your symptoms get better soon.
Avatar m tn They prescribed oxycontin 20 mg and oxcycone 5mg.
501792 tn?1261111106 0 mm I found old medicine in the cabinet Norco 10/325 from November 2013 under my name and now I am taking Norco Plus oxyContin I am scared to death now I have horrible pain in my lower back what r the substitute For oxycontin I want to take one painkiller one time long time ago February 2013 my doctor gave me oxymorphone er 20 milligrams and I got mad at her I told her history that my mom got sick in the hospital when she had a operation she was throwing up and I was paranoid taking oxymorphone
Avatar f tn She hardly ever takes the breakthrough meds and when her doctor changed her oxycontin from 40mg to 80mg she still had most of a months supply. Last year I started taking her breakthrough meds along with my own. I was taking about 60mgs a day of the oxycodone which was all I could take without her running out. My norco ran out and I had a two week wait before I could fill it again. I started taking my wifes 40mg oxycontins since she wasn't using them anymore.
725248 tn?1316162245 Hi Chuck, I was on about the same doses of Oxycontin and Percocet as you--except I was on 40mg Oxycontin twice a day. I was taking the maximum number of percocet that I could for breakthrough, and I was getting no pain relief from any of it, mostly because I'd become tolerant to the medications. We switched my prescription to Hydromorph Contin and Dilaudid for breakthrough, and the pain relief is amazing for me, with minimal side effects. So, I have had great success with this change.
Avatar m tn Hello. I was recently diagnosed with inactive/latent tuberculosis and was given Isoniazid 300 mg to take for 6 months. At the clinic, they warned me that isoniazid is processed mainly by the liver and that drinking alcohol could cause liver damage in combination and should be avoided. I have no problem not drinking, but I take norco on a regular basis for chronic pain and I'm concerned that the acetaminophen in the norco's will combine with the isoniazid and cause severe liver damage.
Avatar f tn I have already caught him once mixing klonopin and his methadone. But I am still very suspicious that he has do so over the week end at his parents house. I was just wondering if you could advise me as to what signs to watch for if I don't catch him right away. Like what the normal side effects within a day or two after that I would be looking for.
Avatar f tn Thanks for the reply. It's not me that's using, it's my spouse. I'm just really concerned.
Avatar f tn I have been averaging 3 tabs of 10/325 Norco a day. I take it for numerous reasons...spinal stenosis - but it helps all of my arthritis. I stopped 2 days ago and hurt all over...I do this even when on the meds sometimes but the meds will pull me up. If I increased to 4 a day I am fairly pain free. But my Dr. won't do that so I am trying to just stop. I have fibromyalgia and I started with 3 tabs of 7.
Avatar f tn Hi y'all! I just got signed up here I'm not got a addiction yet lol that's why I am wanting to ask everyone if someone could help. I just started pain management yesterday for thoracic outlet syndrome I'm in physical therapy I go two times a week and am trying to do anything to keep me from surgery. But anyways the pain doc I went to was a big butthole to me since he has never heard of what I have he almost didn't help even tho my thoracic doc requested me to go to him.
Avatar n tn i was taking about 16 80 mg oxycontin a day, and went on a fentanyl binge about a month and half ago.... any way im down to about 9 80's a day. cutting down everyday and still hurting everyday... i was wondering how much i should cut down everyday? last week i was at 12 and now im down to 8....
725248 tn?1316162245 Which by the way is not working very well at all. I am on 2-40mg oxycontin a day and 4-15mg oxycodone a day and 2-5mg valium a day. I see that Opana only comes in 5mg, 10mg, 20mg and 40mg. I wonder how opana compares to oxycontin???
