Avatar n tn It is very true that wen testing for Oxycodone that it can come up positive for Morphine or Oxymorphone. Doctors often do not understand how to read the tests. The article I found proving that is www.jenniferschneider.com/articles/Conv_of_Oxycodone_7_20_7.html It is a great article that explains why Oxycodone is often read as Morphine.
Avatar f tn If I understand serum results correctly oxycodone is also converted to a highly active metabolite, oxymorphone. So your serum drug screen should contain oxymorphone. According to a trusted web-site Oxycodone's oxidative metabolites are (noroxycodone, oxymorphone, and noroxymorphone). If that's true as I believe it is - your Serum Drug Test was correct - it showed the metabolites. We have other members that have a better understanding of chemical values.
981443 tn?1250115802 Endo has been the major distributor of oxymorphone throughout the world and currently markets oxymorphone in the United States and elsewhere as Opana and Opana ER. Opana is available as 5 mg and 10 mg tablets; Opana ER, an extended-release form of oxymorphone, is available as tablets in strengths of 5 mg, 7½ mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, and 40 mg.
Avatar f tn I am currently prescribed morphine sulfate 30 mg and morphine 100 mg. I recently took a drug test where Oxymorephone showed up in my urine test. Does either of these pills contain the components of oxymorphone or opana? Any help will be appreciated!
Avatar m tn i dont know alot about this drug but i heard it',twice as strong as oxy-contin,close to fentanyl,scary.meth,cocaine and alcohol,and your clean of that.good job.it takes alot of inner strength to do that.
Avatar f tn Has anyone heard of the drug Opana ER. Checking into detox tomorrow to rid myself of this drug. Can't be done on my own, tried cold turkey thought I would die.
Avatar f tn Did they check off oxymorphone (opana) or morphine on the lab slip? Oxymorphone (Opana) is a semi-synthetic opioid, unlike morphine which is an opiate. If there was an error is the test request, that could explain the false negative. Btw, Opana is available in generic form- oxymorphone hcl ER by globabal pharmaceuticals. I know because I take it currently.
Avatar m tn My doctor told me that my last drug screening came up positive for Opana ER. I have never taken Opana. How in the world could this have happened? I know many people won't believe me, but it's the truth. I'm just trying to figure out how this could happen. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Avatar f tn I have DDD and mild spinal stenosis along with a lot of other imperfections of the spine. It has affected NY back so much I haven't been able to hold down a job where U have to stand or do physical work since age 30. I am 47 now and now a nerve in my spine is impinged and causing me horrific knee and foot pain. I wajecup in pain in the middle of sleep. I'm on 5mgs 3x's a day and oxymorphone 2x's a day. It help about 25 to 30%. This is very inhumane.
Avatar f tn Theres also Percoden which is oxycodone and asprin. Oxymorphone is a totally different drug 2x the strenth of oxycodone.
Avatar n tn Endo brought it back to the market in 2006 to compete against Oxycontin. Oxymorphone was the drug of choice in the movie Drugstore Cowboy, Matt Damin and his gang called them "Blues". Oxymorphone is also considered to be especially euphoric; comparable to or better than heroin. Look it up on Wikipedia!!!
Avatar f tn Opana (oxymorphone) will show up on any standard, 8-panel or 10-panel drug screen, FOR SURE. Snorting is dangerous, as Vicki said above me... tell your friend to stop.
Avatar f tn I am going through serious withdrawal. I suffer chronic back and hip pain and my doctor can't seem to find the source of the pain. So I started to medicate myself. I started off with oxy 30s. then I started dating a guy who also is in chronic pain and when I would start getting "sick" from not being able to get the 30s he gave he some of his oxymorphone, opana, and I don't want to continue taking his meds anymore.
Avatar f tn Was on Tramadol for the past 7 months, up to 400mg a day for severe neck/back injury/pain due to a car accident 8 months ago. My pain management doc gave me this Oxymorphone 5mg. up to 3 times daily yesterday. Doc said try this, but if that doesn't work, its epidural cervical injections and possible surgery. I'm worried about addiction now, w/ all these pills they throw at me.
Avatar f tn Oxycodone is metabolized by the liver into oxymorphone. Oxymorphone is about 2 times stronger than oxycodone based on pharmacology. When I was first switched to Opana, the drowsiness and tiredness were unreal! It was a real struggle for me at first and I also have a desk job. However, the sedation effects only lasted for a month at the most. Now I don't get sedated anymore and in fact I am more alert than I was on Morphine.
Avatar m tn im on opana er (oxymorphone) 5mg x2 day, neurantin 300mg x3 day, hydrocodone 7.5mg x1 day, ambien 10mg x1 night, synthroid 225mcg x1 night, alegra180 mg x1 day, and benedryl as needed. I have thyroid cancer, a poor diet, drink soda all the time, and am overweight. I tested postive however for oxycodone, which im not taking. i was told by my doctor that the opana would test positive only for oxymorphone, and not oxycode.
Avatar n tn For example, 1 mg of oxymorphone is stronger than 1 mg of oxycodone...to be precise, oxymorphone is approx. 2 times stronger than oxycodone. Therefore, to get equivalent strength of oxymorphone through oxycodone, one has to take their oxymorphone dosage and multiply it by 2 to yield equivalent oxycodone dosing in mgs.
Avatar m tn SUBOXONE IS DEFINATELY THE MIRACLE DRUG THAT ADDICTS AROUND THE WORLD HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. BUT PLEASE DONT FORGET THE IMPORTANCE OF WORKING A VERY STRONG PROGRAM WITH NARCOTICS ANONYMOUS. REMEMBER, THE DRUGS ARE JUST THE SYMPTOM OF OUR UNCUREABLE DISEASE. NA PROGRAMS HELP YOU HEAL AND ARREST THIS TERRIBLE DISEASE CALLED ADDICTION.
Avatar f tn Incivek is new enough that no one knew to warn me of this, but it quickly became obvious to me that Incivek interacted with my narcotic painkillers (oxymorphone was the specific drug in use at that point) to greatly increase my blood levels of the narcotic. While on Incivek I could have overdosed had I not been especially careful. I had to halve my narcotic dose for the duration of the Invivek phase of treatment.
Avatar f tn Soon my doctor went to prescribing me 8 Opana (oxymorphone) 10 mg a day. This was the beginning of the worst time in my life. I literally am scared out of my mind of running out because I'm frightened I will die... these withdrawals make me feel like my life is ending. I am moving soon to a different city and recently broke up with my boyfriend of 3+ years and this has caused me a great depression. I feel like my entire life has ended because everything I have grown to know is now over.
Avatar n tn I am now on medicare and anthem blue cross will only provide me with a 30 day supply. The reason given is that oxymorphone HCL ER 7.5 MG TAB is not on their formulary. Without the insurance this medication cost $300.00. I take it 2 x a day and it is very addictive. I did think that we/they understood that using blue cross was an option only if this drug was covered. What to do?.... In continuing, it seems I've come to the wrong site.
Avatar m tn I have built up a tolerance to oxycodone IR that I have had to take 3 times my dose just to get my pain to get down to a moderate level. The research I have done is that oxymorphone is stronger and less mg. I have several questions. Are taking less mg easier on the body? How do I ask my doctor to switch, I don't want to seem like just another patient trying to get high.

Avatar f tn I've just been switched from Fentanyl 25mcg every 48 hrs to Oxymorphone 10mg every 12hrs. I feel way worse (pain) & was wondering if anyone knows what the equivalence is between the 2. I have a feeling I've just been decreased in pain relief. My dr & the pharmacist told me to wait a few days to "feel it's working" & in the meantime I'm in excruciating pain. Can anyone help with what I can do here? Btw...
Avatar f tn Did you take a drug screen that was negative? Did your PMP inform you that your drug screen was negative for opiates? Opana can metabolize as morphine. Opana is oxymorphone, a semi-synthetic opioid derived from morphine and therefore very similar to morphine. Hope this information helps answer your question.
