Avatar n tn Heart palpatations and irregular heart beats are a serious side effect of the medication. Since your friend has been taking percocet for years, he/she is addicted to the medication. When the medication starts to wear off, he/she is experiencing a withdrawal which can cause heart palpatations and irregular heart beats due to anxiety. Here's a list of side effects and severity: http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-7277-Percocet+Oral.aspx?
1887358 tn?1320931131 It's the 650mg of Acetaminophen (Tylenol) that would be too high of a dosage in a month. Therefore 180 tablets would exceed the intake of Acetaminophen per FDA recommendations. In my opinion there is no good reason for all that Acetaminophen if you are taking Oxycodone (Percocet) long term. There isn't a "normal" dose of Percocet. Physicians differ as do conditions and situations .
Avatar n tn when the doctor said 200 was the maximum he accepted that. He does seem to be doing well, but I am worried. what chance is there of his ever getting off of it, or at least onto a lower dose?
Avatar n tn Phillnoir - cool moniker, equally cool post. Remember, this forum is just as much for we poor souls who read the posts, as well as those who initiate them. clsmith843? Acetaminophen - AKA "Tylanal" (intentionally misspelled) - is toxic to one's liver and organs. Absolutely and unequivocally, it'll kill ya. The maximum recommended dosage is not to exceed 500mg/daily. That's not even a full, regular dose as per label instructions, it's 1 tablet.
429925 tn?1203905115 What is the maximum dosage for Effexor XR? Also, is it advisable to take with Lorazapham?
210982 tn?1280983895 Yes although dosage and frequency of usage does matter. In my experience morphine, high dosage oxycontin and methadone are the most effective (and the most addicting) pain killers.

Avatar n tn However, it is common practice to increase medication dose to help control blood sugar (the maximum dose of metformin is about 2500 mg/day, in split doses). Some people do take their medication before eating. Please discuss changes in medication dosing with your md. You may also find that restricting carbs (eat more fat, non-starchy vegetables instead to replace the calories) may help in reducing your blood sugar.
Avatar m tn I admit my own naivity on the subject, so I leave it to one of you to help understand. I have come in contact with Percocet, which contains 2.5MG of Oxy, but then I also see an 80mg Oxy tablet on the market. Is the 80mg a time released version? Can you cut the pill four ways to instead have 4 20mg doses? Can anyone send me to a decent place to learn about Oxy doses?
Avatar n tn Hi,I read about people on 180mg or 200mg of pills. I take 8 7.5/325 of Percocet, can anyone tell me how many mg I am on?
Avatar f tn If you stop use of the Tylenol PM, it may take up to 2-4 weeks for you to adjust to falling asleep without the medication, but there should be no other problems. The current recommended maximum daily dosage of acetaminophen, commonly known as Tylenol, is 4000mg (4 grams) in a 24 hour period and one tablet of Tylenol PM contains 500mg of Acetaminophen and 25mg of Diphenhydramine. Therefore, if you take 2 tablets (1000mg or 1 gram) each night you are not exceeding the maximum daily dosage.
Avatar f tn s tolerances. There is a ceiling to the effects of buprenorphine; you would get to that maximum effect at a dose of around 2 mg per day (you are now getting about 0.5 mg per day). At the maximum effect-- i.e. at 2 mg per day-- butrans is ABOUT as potent as 60 mg of oxycodone per day. These are rough dose estimates, as every person is a little different, and the route of administration-- transdermal-- has different 'efficiencies' in different people.
Avatar m tn For most people, as long as you are consistently putting a narcotic into your body, you will grow a tolerance. But I know someone who has taken percocet for over 20 years and has been at the same dosage basically the whole time. Everyone is different. Have you tried medications other than narcotics?
478811 tn?1208474960 I had major back surgery, a four level fusion, in october 2006. I was given percocet after the surgery, and was told to go to a special pain management place, where i went for over 7 months. because I was active 4 weeks after the surgery, and started to run around and take care of my kids and get back to my very busy life style, I never had real time to relax, and just "chill out". I stopped going to therapy in july, last year, put I continued to need the pain meds.
926688 tn?1244384496 I havent took a percocet in about 5 days, the worst symptom that im feeling is my lower back is in pain, how long until this all goes away?
Avatar n tn does anyone know recommended dosage for Watson 749 (Percocet), how often you are supposed to take it?
Avatar m tn Today I was offered the lower dosage 5mg/325 pills. I am curious since it is such a lower dosage if I can take one at night to try and sleep until I cant completely ween myself off of the drugs. This has been the hardest struggle of my life thus far and I know with mind over matter I can make it but I'd still like to take these few low dosage percs to try and help ween myself off easier and help the withdrawls.
Avatar m tn I am not sure if this caused by the new dosage of Percocet, or if it has to do with the weight I have gained due to my injury perhaps.... But I started doing some research and read everywhere that Klonopin and Percocet are a dangerous mix. I have never experienced any issues before (but I do not watch myself sleep), and I did not experience any issues on Tuesday night......only last night.
Avatar f tn In general, the initial dosage is a 15 mg capsule per day, and your doctor can increase the dosage based on your tolerance to the drug and your weight loss , but the maximum dosage is 30 mg per day.
Avatar m tn I'm well into my 69th year and I'm dealing with trying to kick an addiction to Percocet. This is my first addiction except for coffee. I took my last capsule a week ago today and I'm still lucky if I get 3-4 hours of sleep at night. I, also, spend much of the night walking the floor because I can't sit still and my insides feel like something is crawling around. My addiction was very light compared to those I've read about on this forum and yet it is still kicking my butt.
