Avatar m tn yea I am definitely cold turkey (over 24 hours) on the norco....but I took the percocet...not sure what percocet is...but i'm sure its not good to keep taking. just was cool to have a clear head feeling with no norco in my system and feeling fine! but it wont last.
Avatar n tn Norco is better than most because it only has 325 of Tylenol Vs. 500 or 650. To my knowledge hydrocodone which is the narcotic agent in Norco (I take it too) does not come in a tablet all on it's own. In order to get rid of the Tylenol you have to move up to the drug oxycodone which is in drugs like Percocet they make oxycodone tabs without Tylenol. Question is why are you so worried about your liver? Is your liver already compromised?
Avatar m tn what is the difference betweed norco and percocet. please include withdrawal symptoms.
Avatar f tn I have heard that people who have been on opiates for long periods of time do not have such a terrible reactions to stronger meds like fentenyl like people who have not taken opiates. I have not tried Oxycontin I started off on norco then went to dilaudid and now percocet with the Butrans patch. The percs work well but they haven't been working as well with BT pain since I started the Butrans patch.
Avatar f tn In 2013 the FDA mandated changes in opioid formulations containing acetaminophen. Vicodin, Norco, and Percocet now all contain only 325mg of acetaminophen and known as 5/325 formulations -- 5mg of opioid analgesic with 325mg of acetaminophen. A few months ago with the law went infor effect, there was a shortage of 5/325 formulations in the distribution networks. By the way, other drugs can hurt your liver.
1508881 tn?1313114901 I've switched between norco vicodein, codein, tramadol and percocet when the meds aren't working. All are short acting but after a while on one med it wouldn't work as well so I'd switch. But you could always go to something like Opana ER which lasts much longer. Can't hurt to try something new. If it doesn't work you can always switch back. Right?
Avatar m tn I have been taking Norco and Percocet 10mg for three months is it okay to take them together.

Avatar f tn By the way. Percocet , and Vicodin are both a category C. "It is not known whether Percocet is harmful to an unborn baby, but it could cause breathing problems or addiction/withdrawal symptoms in a newborn. " Remember it's important to talk to your doctor if about the medications you're on. Good luck.
Avatar f tn So norco, percocet an morphine?? Were u on it your whole pregnancy?
Avatar f tn Ive been taking percocet on n off for 5 years. More on than off. I use to subsitite with norco, 10mg when id run put pf my 30 month supply of 120 after 2 weeks. I try to taper, and it helps. I recently went up to 6 a day of 10/325. O have 3 left with one ready to inhale for the am. I am coming out of a drug imduced psychosis episode. I've gotten them before, but this was the worst. Im taking 2 mg xanax which has brought me back almost 99%.
Avatar m tn Have they stopped making Lora tab I was told I had to take this other Norco to replace it
Avatar f tn I have been off of tramadol for 15 days, took Percocet for 6 of those days and Norco for 5 of the days.
Avatar f tn A LORTAB is basically Vicodin (hyddrocodone), whereas a PERCOCET is a more natural opiate, also called oxycodone. Because oxy is less synthetic, it tends to be a bit stronger. Both meds contain the opiate (either hydro or oxy) and acetaminophen (tylenol). Both are habit forming when used improperly, or for long periods of time. Hope that helps.
3112530 tn?1434032033 Before the Botox treatments the pain was severe. I have done all the drug (morphine, Norco, Gabapentin, Oxycontin, Percocet and what ever drug they could give me to help with pain. My family doctor who was trying to help gave me Fentanyl50mcg in hopes it would help with my pain issues. It numbed up my mind and although I was eating, it was not enough and I went from 150lbs to 108lbs in a matter of months.
Avatar f tn I have been takeing one or two norco and it works. I have no problems or sideeffects from it. There are days i may take three but that is the max. My primary dr wanted me to try a pain management dr. He told me I am addicted to norco and i have to switch medications. So he gives me morphine. It is way to strong and i fekt like a zombie. Dr said it was not a side effect of morphine It was me coming off norco. I totally disagreed so he put me on Percocet. I think its to strong to.
1866508 tn?1333984613 Therefore, 20 mg of Kadian is equivalent to about 34 mg of hydrocodone. So, if you take 20 mg of Norco every 4 to 5 hours, the norco is stronger than the current dose of Kadian you are taking, as over a 12 hour period, you would have taken 40-60 mg of norco (or 23 - 35mg morphine equivalent). If I interpreted your post incorrectly and you really take 10 mg of norco every 5-6 hours, then the Kadian is about the equivalent of your norco dosing over a 12 hour period.
Avatar m tn Fentanyl is a stonger form of an opioid. Opiate and opioid mean the same thing: Opiate is an adjective while opioid is a noun. Percocet is an opioid as is fentanyl. They are synthetic which means they are man made and not derived from a plant. Good job on getting off the Percocet!
Avatar f tn I know how their actions/reactions with you made you feel, because I was there once as well with my PCP that was writing me for Percocet every other week or less. When I approached them about my addiction, they shut the door in my face and left me high and dry with everything. Like you, I thought I deserved it after what I'd done to myself as well as the people around me, etc. However...like avisg stated, nobody walks on water!
