Avatar m tn I take meloxicam at night and ibuprofen about 2 hours before bed and a few hours in the morning after I wake up. This takes my pain away. I had an injection and it hurt me so bad for 9 days straight I could not even move the pain was that intense. So I am sticking to ibuprofen 800 and if I feel I need more in the middle of the day I have a pill cutter and I cut them in half it still takes my pain away.
963889 tn?1359677334 My girlfriend had an open biopsy on her kidneys and it showed ibuprofen caused the damage. Her doctor in Florida did some research on Ibuprofen and then did a report for the AMA. Ibruprofen (advil and etc) is the number one cause of kidney failure of over the counter products in the Nation.
1158557 tn?1262725929 Try not to feed into it and use a heating pad in that area and it will help. Ibuprofen works really well for back pain. Your doing great. This shouldn't last to much longer. Hang in there buddy!!!!
Avatar n tn This morning I received an injury to my face which forced my teeth through my bottom lip and knocked out one of my teeth which was reseated. They gave me morphine by injection at the ER and prescribed Vicodin and said I could take that as soon as I got home. The Vicodin worked at first and I fell asleep. When I awoke, I was in excruciating pain, worse than when the injury first happened. It was 2 hrs before I can have another Vidodin so I took 800mg of ibuprofen.
Avatar n tn Research McKenzie method and try his exercises.
Avatar f tn This was about 1 1/2 years ago, neuro stimulator placed doing well with pain control using ibuprofen and Tylenol #4. However according to PM Dr. last 3 dit have shown increased amounts of hydrocodone. I take ibuprofen, Tylenol #4, Prozac, diazyde, devastating, multivitamin, exception, and a topical compound which is formulated under Dr. order. I do not take hydrocodone. I am allergic to hydrocodone. I am at my wits end, what would cause this false positive.
1674921 tn?1304177675 No problem with Ibuprofen according to Dr. Gregory Everson head of the Liver Transplant and Hepatology Department at the Anschults Meddical Facility in Denver. Just don't take more than what it says on the bottle. Ibuprofen is mainly processed in the kidneys.
Avatar f tn Hydrocodone is ok I have taken it with all 3 of my pregnancys, the first 2 for very bad bladder infections and with my last pregnancy I had to take that and morphine because of my gallbladder. All of the kids are perfectly healthy.
Avatar n tn Tramadol is a opiate but has a weaker effect on the receptors than morphine and other opiates. It is closely linked to codeine. It has the potential for addiction because it affects neurotransmitters like seratonin and norepinepherine like other opiates. Tramadol usually has Tylenol or Ibuprofen in it an a adjunct pain reliever. What else have you tried for back pain? Tylenol and Ibuprofen are unfortunately overlooked. I would always try them first. They can be taken together safely.
Avatar n tn t believe this has happened so quickly and at such an irregular and low dose. I only have one and 1/4 pill left. Plan to do 1/4 in AM to get through work tomorrow, and then come up with some taper plan for the rest of the week. I did 1/4 this am, now just on benadryl, & ibuprofen, and still achy. I feel like such a fool. I'm 50 yrs old....dam* mid-life crisis and trying to party like a kid :-).
11116547 tn?1415690651 I had both iv meds and pills morphine through my iv and ibuprofen and percacet while in hospital and ibuprofen and percacet perscribed for when i go home
Avatar n tn I am allergic to Aspirin, Morphine, Codeine, Hydrocodone, Tramadol and Ibuprofen. After my last back surgery they put me on Gabapentin several times a day. Now I just take it at night to help take the edge off so I can sleep. Now I have to have a shoulder replacement in 2 weeks and they want me to see a pain management specialist because they don't know what to give me when I come home. I told them to just up the Gabapentin to several times a day. But they don't want to do that.
Avatar f tn Morphine is not the king of all narcotics you may want to do some research. I don't know what you said in my post, someone had it removed. I was trying to help people who are in pain management on more than 30mg a day or one day may require more than 30mg. Such as those in intractable incurable pain.
Avatar f tn Hi, Well you could try tapering. Usually addicts don't do well with tapering as we don't have the discipline obviously. If you try that route, I would do it with your doctor's help (if you get the Morphine from a doctor), and/or have somebody else hold your pills for you while you taper. Unfortunately we are not allowed to post or recommend tapering schedules on here.
Avatar f tn Whether or not he can take NSAIDs (aspirin, ibuprofen, naprosyn) and how much he can take will depend on whether he has varices or any other gastric problems. He really needs a good doctor to examine him and advise him on these isues.
1808595 tn?1316359530 I was gettting 24 mg of hydro morphine and every two weeks id come down a couple mg, by the time i reached 1mg, i started going through withdrawl, as i wasnt taking what i shouldve been, i havent been getting perscriptions for morphine any more for about a year,i started buying them on the street, i know now that i have an addiction, i moved home to get away from the drugs i could easily find in the city, and now im regreting it because when i go to the hospital they give me adavan's and zop
Avatar m tn The doctors have not yet been able to control,the pain -morphine is as effective as ibuprofen . Has anyone had a similar issue but gotten a diagnosis and more importantly a treatment plan that worked .
Avatar f tn s a tough one...my husband had a kidney stone over the weekend and he said that ibuprofen 800 mgs helped more than the vicodin he took...and of course its not wrong to take them if you really need them, but remember there are other options for pain relief..
Avatar f tn i had my wisdom teeth pulled (by someone else) in 2002 and had a dry socket which took a week to clear up but used ice and ibuprofen for the pain. also had 3 root canals with no additional pain meds. biggest dental work was pulling a lower front tooth and then adding a 4 tooth bridge (which meant filing down the other 3 teeth). my tooth puller gave me vocodine but my dentist just said ibuprofen after filing the teeth and adding the temporary bridge. i never used the vicodine.
1029507 tn?1287714315 i just talked to my llmd nurse she told me when i come down we will talk about morphine for my pain, right now i take Oxycontin for pain she said that is just a short term help, she said that morphine works for chronic pain.
Avatar m tn The term you found is chemical term, CYP450 2D6 and there are Inducers and Inhibitors and Substrates....all very confusing and detailed. It is related to absorption and metabolism. Take care and I hope your recovery is swift and non-eventful.
Avatar n tn Just be honest and tell him the morphine is giving you all this trouble. If you don't get the side effects from the oxycodone and it works, not sure why they want to change it.
699217 tn?1323438700 I'll do my best..... Here is the easiest way to look at it, (i think?) ... Percocet has tylenol in it, however, oxycodone and oxycontin are just straight percocet, no tylenol. I believe that oxycodone is the generic name for Roxicodone, which is also obviously percocet without the tylenol. Oxycontin and oxycodone are the same thing, EXCEPT oxycodone is a quick release tablet, and oxycontin is a slow release of the same med. Hydrocodone is the ingredient in Vicodin and Lortab.
548642 tn?1266179652 Tylenol, contrary to popular belief is OK to take if you have HCV, just no more than 4-6 per day. Ibuprofen is also good if your stomach is OK with it and you take it with food. Stronger stuff like opiates are also OK if necessary, but easy to become addicted to if you are not careful.
1326416 tn?1370927001 IMHO - I'm very surprised to hear about patients on narcotics for long term chonic pain being prescribed percocet and vicoden. I think it's far better to take oxycodone or morphine instead of constantly ingesting tylenol (tylenol is in both percocet and vicoden) which may not even be needed at all. It can be taken seperately if it is needed for a headache or something.
Avatar f tn Nurofen contains ibuprofen, and the 'plus' is codeine. Codeine is converted to morphine in the liver (to varying degrees in different cultural populations), so from a practical standpoint there is no difference between an addiction to nurophen vs any other opiate, such as oxycodone or heroin.
Avatar f tn I've made the switch from the oxycodone to the morphine last night. Woke up today feeling not so great, but I can do this. Next appointment is Monday morning where we'll review the taper and see where to go. I have to keep reminding myself I didn't get to these doses overnight and I'm not going to get rid of them overnight. The withdrawals for me are different than when I tried to go cold turkey. Still bad but not as severe.
Avatar n tn vicoprofen is similar to vicodin, both have hydrocodone, but it has ibuprofen instead of tylenol. I was on vicoprofen ( 2x daily) for joint pain throughout most of tx and it was prescribed by a hepatologist. For me, it worked beter than vicodin. I don't think I could have made it through tx without it.
