vicodin

Avatar n tn I understand that it is not good to mix drugs with alcohol, but I would like to know of experiences with mixing those two drugs, lexapro and Vicadin, alone.
Avatar f tn Just be careful mixing the methadone and the benzo. Benzos and methadone is a deadly combo. Make sure you listen to the others and call your pharmacist or ask your doctor.
Avatar n tn well 23 days of pure hell went by and i was introduced to suboxone from my old boyfriend who knew i was in trouble. That day he gave me one 8mg pill, and a 1mg. Klonopin and i actually got out of bed and all the hell was over. I have a doctor know who prescribes me 2 of the 8's a day, along with 2mgs. of klonopin a day. Believe me, i have my days where i want to be back on methadone, because like most, it became my choice drug, but it is a love/hate relationship.
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.
1041243 tn?1375230520 but in my personal experience, thats all that vicodin does, too. vicodin makes me violently ill and i found that ibuprofen, tylenol and asprin all worked better than the vicodin...but i talked to my doc first, which is what you should do.
1407445 tn?1281318016 I think Shelli pretty much summed it all up in her answer and better I think, than I could have. lol I also take Klonopin and have muscle relaxers and I took them both. That helped tremendously with the restlessness, (mine was my whole body, not just my legs). I have a small child so bed wasn't an option for me but that is exactly where I would have been if I could have.
Avatar n tn I am currently taking klonopin for my seizures, zolof for depression, and hydrocodone for tooth pain. If all these meds are taken at the same time is their a chance of blacking out or short term memory loss? The reason I ask is because it has happened to me and I need some info on this.
Avatar f tn Mixing methadone xanax and klonopin can be a fatal combination .Try to convince him to speak to his doctor about what he should do .
Avatar f tn i was in the same situation, actually, when i found out i was preg, i was shooting up morphine,,quit IMMEDIATELY, addicted to vicodin...25 a day, alcohlol, and dr rx'd xanax. i weaned my way down with the help of my Dr. took me a few Dr"s to not look down on me, i felt overwhelmed and so guilty and sure my baby was not going to be ok.
229538 tn?1300377767 All of a suddon im getting anxiety attacks almost always in the morning . Yes I do have an anxiety disorder . I take Lexapro and some times Klonopin at bedtime. Any kind words from whomever has been threw this would be welcome. Oh I have stopped taking any vicodin at all .
Avatar f tn Hi, I just found out I am 5 weeks. I was addicted and dependent on Vicodin for a year for two painful conditions that led me to eventually growing a high tolerance and dependent. I'm also on celexa and klonopin. My klonopin dose is low but I've been on the same dose for years. My husband and I had problems for over a year and a half to get pregnant so I am so happy but so fearful! I am currently tapering on the meds but feel anxious and hopeless.
Avatar f tn Yes it would work quickest of all. But that and Klonopin are nearly one and the same by way of benzos. Valium is another option. But once you start taken whatever kind of tablets you take you must look towards the time when you might have to stop taken them. Keeping it easier would be better. The Klonopin is a longer acting benzo. It wouldn't have the same kick in effect as Xanax. As in almost instant. But it is easier to manage.
Avatar m tn I have been taking methadone for my heroin addiction and was prescribed Klonopin for anxiety. I been able to taper off methadone to 1mg and all of a sudden can't sleep. Restless legs is the worst. I take 0.25 of klonopin but it doesn't help. I know some sleep aids is benzos like Triazolam and it helped me before (i detoxed from Methadone 3 times) but this time i am on Klonopin which is another benzo. What can i take?
Avatar f tn You might ask you doctor to get rid of Xanax or Klonopin and adjust the dosage rather than mixing both. I see no point in mixing two kind of benzodiazepine. You question was is it safe to mix both. Well it's ok to mix both but i don't see the point this is why i suggest you talk to your doctor about selecting only one of the two and adjusting the dose to your needs and lifestyle.
Avatar n tn Klonopin has a longer half life then Xanax and also has less severe side effects. Klonopin can be dangerous if not taken as prescribed and should be used exactly as your doctor has recommended . As far as being the same , Well yes and no ! Klonapin has an eight hour half life and Xanax about three . But like I said most psychiatrist at UCLA will not write scripts for Xanax unless Klonopin does not work for a perticular patient .
Avatar m tn Today he came down hard from his high and went off the road with his car. I am wondering if mixing these drugs are the culprit, and what the family can do about this doctor because he seems extremely shady, and my brother has sneaked off in the middle of the night to see him and always comes back high as a kite.
1717759 tn?1309056248 Although, I was upfront with my p-doc about my problems in the past with vicodin and xanax and she gave me klonopin anyway. I should have done my research before taking it. I learned too little too late. My question is this: how to I come off both drugs at the same time or is that advisable? I've done extensive reading about the side effects of both. I don't want to end up in the ER by withdrawing too quickly. Any help would be appreciated.
Avatar m tn cause im so focused on withdrawls.scared of them. i was down to 1 vicodin a day and a dr. recommended i take suboxones. and i got hooked on 8mg subs. from 1 vicodin a day. guess he wanted the money. so now im back to 2 30mg oxys to 4 30mg oxys.
Avatar n tn What would you suggest were you in my position. I am currently taking Klonopin 0.5-1mg daily and up to 8 Vicodin (5mg/500mg) daily to squelch the constant pain. Obviously neither of these drugs are sustainable or preventative... Do you have any other therapudic or medicinal suggestions? Also, I am certain the Vicodin is not causing rebound headaches. Thanks.
407249 tn?1215350469 I completely understand what you are going through. I am in the exact same situation that you are (24 hours without any meds, no real problems until now), except that I have no other medication I can take to help me sleep. I have hydroxazine, but that is basically Benadryl with a bit more power, and it is doing no good. I had some martinis tonight to help me sleep (and they ALWAYS make me fall straight to sleep), but nothing. It's not just my legs either.
Avatar n tn I currently take 100mg of Lyrica twice a day and half a .5 klonopin twice daily. My Neuro wants me off the klonopin because she says it is bad in the long run. It seems to be the only thing that helps. She wants me to start Lexapro 20mg daily and wean off of klonopin. I hate Lexapro because the brain fog when I tried it 2 years ago. Two questions: Is it safe to take all 3 at once (daily)? Should I try herbal things for anxiety other then Lexapro?
Avatar m tn I sure wish I would have done that. Vicodin will destroy your health and your spirit if not taken properly and for short-term use only. I took them for over 15 years, averaged @ 12-15 pills a day,escalating to taking as many as 45 pills in a day at the end. I've been clean for 6 months, and I still can't sleep more than a couple of hours in a night if I'm lucky. I didn't mean to ramble, but I just wanted to share my experience so I can hopefully help others.
Avatar n tn I know of many people that are prescribed Vicodin (Hydrocodone) and Ultram (Tramadol) together with the Vicodin prescribed for breakthrough pain. However, as Sandee and Molly stated, you should call your doctor before taking these medications at the same time if they were not prescribed to you that way. The potency of the two medications may be too strong for you or may contradict any other medical conditions you may have. Feel Better.
