Common Questions and Answers about Oxycodone for cough

oxycontin

Avatar m tn hi, how do u feel on days when u don't take it besides the cough? I know for me, when i finally stopped taking vicodin totally, i did have a cough & learned that the vicodin was actually a cough suppressant so it was a common w/d effect. I don't know if it is the same with the oxy.
Avatar n tn I took a urine test at my doctors as i do once a month to re4ceive my precription of oxycodone, an naproxen for my bad hip problem do to installing carpet and flooring for 31 years. problem is they said i tested positive for methadone. wich ive never taken although i did take a sip of cough syrup that said on the label prometh /vc codeine syrup could this be mistaken for methadone. i had the normal oxycodone in my system.
Avatar n tn is the ingredient in all the drugs that have meth in there name the same type of meth and or would it show up as a meth product in a UA test whatever that is there are many to many to count, and is the done in the drugs with done in there medical name all the same done like hydracodone,oxycodone,methadone, My reason for asking this is i had a prescription for oxycodone,and naproxine.
Avatar n tn , and it showed up in my urine test as methadone please respond to this as the only thing that works for my bad hip is the oxycodone, wich there are taking away from me, and also they tell me i can look for a knew doctor for my pain medicine, regardless of this mistake wont the next doctor not want to give me any pain meds because of this bad urine test?
481056 tn?1240138727 Well, I was taking really small doses of oxycodone for a month straight (about 10 to 20 mg a day) and I weaned off it with no problem....well with bearable withdrawals. I was off for about 5 days and I went and started using again. I used about 5 to 10 mg for about a week and then I stopped again. My withdrawals were not bad and almost non-existent except that I now have this scratchy throat and I cough all night long. Is this a normal symptom?
Avatar f tn Wondering if anyone knows of anything that could cause a false positive for oxycodone or have experienced a lab mix up?
Avatar n tn They just suck the life out of you. They lead to nowhere. As for your runny nose and cough...all normal. Have you tried melatonin for sleep? It s all natural and works well. All our senses come back to life after we stop. My fingers even tingled the first week. Good luck to you...Kick em to the curb....
917008 tn?1251223979 Hydromorphone is used in medicine as an alternative to morphine and diacetylmorphine for analgesia and as a second- or third-line narcotic antitussive (cough suppressant) for cases of dry, painful, paroxysmal coughing resulting from continuing bronchial irritation after influenza and other ailments, inhalation of fungus and other causes, and is generally regarded to be the strongest of the latter class of drugs, and was developed shortly after another powerful antitussive, heroin, was removed fr
939983 tn?1262528060 I was taking 300+mg of oxycodone a day for the management of the chronic pain associated with adhesive arachnoiditis.
Avatar f tn On the fentenyal patch and told my us came back positive for oxycodone how is this possible?
Avatar f tn I think if you stick to just motrin for pain and a good cough drop for your cough then you will embrace the healing. No sleep meds, no substitutes, just you and what you feel. Focus on what is good.
Avatar f tn Opiates suppress the cough reflex (which is why codeine cough syrup is often prescribed for people who need relief from coughing at night just to sleep.) When you take away the opiates, the cough reflex wakes up. For me it took 14 days for it to come alive, and ---this is the absolute truth---it took THREE MONTHS for the cough to go away. So here I am now. Almost 5 months off the oxycodone.
Avatar m tn In addition to my prescribed oxycodone and alprazolam, my UA showed positive for morphine, but not codeine. The codeine cough syrup was not prescription, you just have to show ID and sign for it. I had the flue with a hacking, unproductive cough, so I drank the entire bottle during the course of a couple of days.With the syrup not being prescription, I thought nothing of it(I know better now). I know that a percentage of codeine is converted back into morphine during metabolization.
1527412 tn?1291705056 They are synthetic. The cutoff level for opiods is 2000 ng/ml, the cutoff for opiads like oxycodone is 100 ng/ml. Either a more sensitive test needs to be used or a test specific to opiads must be used to avoid a false negative. An excellent Federal resource for this info is published by the U.S. gov., valid and current as of May, 2010, reference SAMHSA. Got hit by a truck doing 60 mph 29 years ago, so been here and done this.
Avatar n tn I took about 30 to 40mg a day of oxycodone for about 5 months. Its been 3 days since ive taken any. I have not experienced any withdrawls yet...will I????
Avatar f tn Hi everyone :) My Dad recently had a stroke, during which time they found occlusion in one of his legs, causing foot pain. He's currently on Oxycodone. But I'm looking for a better pain management option(s) for him. From what I've been able to ascertain, Vicodin, Celebrex, Darvo- or Percocet have seemed viable options. Can anyone share their opinions on this??? Thanks so much!
Avatar f tn I have been on oxycodone 15mg. Four times a day for four years. I am in such a horrible trap. I thought by switching to Belbuca I could manage the pain with less side effects, as this is what I have been told. Any comments/insight on the differences in Belbuca and Oxycodone, I would love to hear from you.
1422823 tn?1287679280 I have a very phglemy cough and it hurts to swallow. Could this be from surgery? Also could the pain pills be doing it? I am on 5mg oxycodone. I am taking 2 every 6 hours instead of 3hours and 5 mg vallium every 6 hours. I also haven't had a cigarette since the day before my surgery (yay me) which could also be contributing to it I guess?
Avatar m tn i dont know anything about cough meds that youve been taking but if they are codeine(opiate) based you may be in for some physical withdrawals over the next week, you will find lots of helpful advice here on how to manage them.
Avatar m tn The test showed positive for oxycodone. I have not taken oxycodone. Can the buprenorphine-naloxone cause a false positive for oxycodone? I have seen that is can on an urine test but what about a hair test? If so, any recommendations on how to work through it to get it cleared? Thanks.
Avatar f tn I became addicted to oxycodone 15mg in 2012 after my first back surgery, obviously I was on them while I was in the hospital for 7days after surgery then took them for about 4 days once I got home. I tried to stop and became sick and realized I was addicted. I go to a pain clinic for my chronic pain. Since then I had surgery on my elbow and just 2 weeks ago I had another back surgery. My oxycodone has never been upped in dosage so of course it doesn't help with the pain.
5341133 tn?1372011906 I'm 7 months clean for a 90-150mg oxycodone a day addiction. I spotted cold turkey. It took me 3-4 attempts before I finally called it quits for good. The first week is hell no sleep no appetite for the first few days. Than comes the month long drag thinking life's not easy or you don't know how to feel normal.l, well that's because your not used to feeling normal.
Avatar n tn AIT or Dominion Diagnostics, can then specify the various levels of drugs and where they might have come from. For example, someone on Oxycodone often has small levels of hydrocodone in their urine, as oxycontin and sometimes oxycodone has up to a 1% impurity of hydrocodone. Hope this helps others with the same question....
