Morphine comes is pill form as well as intravenous for severe pain.
Avatar f tn Norco is the same active ingredient as Vicodin and Lortab (hydrocodone), but the Tylenol (acetaminophen) content is lower at 325mg than the 500mg in Lortab and Vicodin.
Avatar m tn They have me on 30 mg oxycontin, twice daily, 10/325 percocet 6 a day, soma 4 times daily and xanax 2 mg for anxiety. What are my options for the breakthrough pain, that is what I am taking the percocet for and I need to stop with the Tylenol already enough is enough. I talked with my doc last time I was there to see her, and this is when she switched me to the percocet from Vicoprofen, due to the fact that it was doing nothing for the pain.
Avatar f tn I'm confused about your patches. You said you change them every 48 hours so that would mean you need approximately 15 per month, right? Or, was this a 3 month supply? You were getting 45 and now your insurance will only pay for 30 I agree with the other posters about your Dr changing and doubling your medication. It sounds extreme. I can understand him thinking you need more pills because you will not be getting as many patches.
Avatar f tn So if you were prescribed 10 mg of oxycontin you were receiving less than 1 mg of oxycodone per hour versus the 10 mg of percocet that was released immediately into your system. I don't know if you have had addiction issues in the past as you didn't state anything that would make me believe that. If you don't have addiction issues, it is very unlikely that would become addicted to the medication. Your body may become dependant but that is completely different.
Avatar f tn I have been clean for over 4 yrs now but due to herniated discs and spinal stenosis, my doctor has put me on MSContin 30mg 2x daily, Percocet/Acetominophen 325 10 mg 3x daily and Valium 10 mg 3x daily for pain. I go to a county doctor who is not knowledgeable about any of these things. I must see him due to lack of insurance and low income. I wonder if anyone out there would know of the effects this drug combo could have on my liver.
Avatar f tn I have been taking percocet (oxycodone acetaminophen) 5/325 1 pill 3 times a day. That was a great system that worked for me. Recently I was prescribed oxycodone minus the acetaminophen. I understand the risks of liver damage. However, I have had NO relief since I began this new drug. I'm confused because it is the same drug minus the Tylenol. Anyone else experiencing this? Would taking a higher dose of the oxycodone (not Percocet which is oxy with acetaminophen) help me better?
Avatar m tn Usually the Percocet (Oxycodone/Acetomenophen) that is precribed at 7.5 mg has 325 mg. of Tylenol in it. I have been precribed 7.5 and 10 mgs. after surgery and they both contained 325 mgs. of Tylenol. They are not scored and can't be split evenly like the 5mg. dose if you want to just take half.
Avatar f tn t always as aware as you are of this fact... so they may take 3,000 mg a day of acetaminophen but then add it in other things such as a sinus of flu medications. I don't know what opiate you are taking but such meds at that contain hydrocodone and acetaminophen like Vicodin, Lortab and Percocet can come with as little as 325 mg per tablet of the acetaminophen.
1264863 tn?1391118193 You can break those 10 mg. Percocet in one half or one quarter to help you taper down. Are you sure you absorb liquids better than solids? The other thing to do is to call your physician for help. With a chronic illness that may be the best.
Avatar f tn He went to the hospital and is ok- htank God. He was taking 10 mg oxycodone ER. Does that mean that he got 10 mg of oxycodone all at one time? Would that not be the same thing as taking two 5mg percs?
Avatar m tn Hydrocodone is available without tylenol. The brand name is vicoprofen and it has 7.5 mg of hydrocodone and 200 mg of ibuprofen, which is the same as one Advil tablet. Vicoprofen also has a generic equivalent. I've found it to be a more effective short-acting medication than regular vicodin, probably because ibuprofen is a true anti-inflammatory which tylenol isn't.
Avatar f tn Welcome to the forum LBunch~ I, too, agree that what your sister did by cutting your mother's dose 50% in 2 days is MUCH too fast... it's no wonder she looks worn out. Our forum policy doesn't allow us to offer "taper plans" because we are not physicians and cannot possibly know a person's entire health history. However, I can tell you, a 50% reduction in 2 days isn't standard medical protocol.
Avatar f tn Percocet is the brand name of the generic drug oxycodone and acetaminophen and Vicodin is a brand name of the generic drug Hydrocodone and acetaminophen. Both oxycodone and Hydrocodone is a narcotic drug and are often used in combination with acetaminophen or APAP, a no steroidal anti inflammatory drug which helps in increasing their potency.
Avatar f tn t make me too drowsey, if so I will need to go back to the Vicodin or Percocet. One more quick question, my Dr. says a 10 mg perc is the same as a 10 mg vicodin but the percs seem stronger to me. What's your opinion on that? Thanks again for the help.
Avatar f tn s not in time released form. The difference is percocet has acetaminophen 325mg to be exact. Increasing the dosage of percocets is bad because of the acet. Alot of times doctors perscribe oxycontin, or roxicets.... because the patients stomach can't handle the acet. It's very hard on the stomach. I hope that answers your question.
Avatar f tn Smoking Perks sounds a bit odd, they are mostly acetaminophen (Tylenol), so likely 500 or 750 mg of that for every 30 mg of oxy. I strongly recommend against smoking these! You're asking some great questions, so I wanted to bump your post back to the top as I don't have time to answer right now! I'm certain others will, and I'll try to check back when I have more time...

722310 tn?1234762137 The recommended daily dose of acetaminophen should not exceed 4,000 mg, the amount found in 8 Vicodins containing 500 mg of acetaminophen. Acetaminophen can cause liver failure in a dose as low as 7,000 mg, the amount found in 14 Vicodins containing 500 mg of acetaminophen, and even a smaller quantity of acetaminophen can cause liver failure if combined with alcohol.
