Percocet vs oxy

Common Questions and Answers about Percocet vs oxy

percocet

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 Percs don't have Oxy in them, they are them, basically. Percocet and Oxycontin are the same drug, which is Oxycodone. I highly recommend that people get to know the drug they're taking (for any medicine) rather than the brand names. Oxycontin is Oxycodone in a concentrated form for longer sustained release.

Avatar m tn Am I still making ground by going up a little on the hydro or was I doing better with the roxi. I know that the oxy (roxi is percocet without the tylenol) is a stronger drug than the hydro but I was hoping to stick to 45mg or lower the rest of the way out. I almost feel like I am withdrawing off of the oxy and in a few days of medicating with the hydro could quit cold turkey as even thought the hydros keep me sain, I am still withdrawing pretty bad from oxy.
1151955 tn?1262643533 I personally did not have mood changes in a bad way. My insurance stopped paying for brand oxycontin so I was switched to Methadone for pain management. My mood definitely changed on those. It was awful. So I went back to the oxycontin and pay out of pocket. We all react differently so you very well could be reacting to the oxycontin. However taking a medication and having to take more than what is prescribed is not good for you long term.
Avatar f tn We are trying to wean him off of the oxy with percocet. He has gone from taking oxy to about 10 percocet a day to about 5 percocets a day now. My question is he has been having some chest pains through out the day for last 3 days since he has dropped down to 5 a day, is this normal? Should I be getting him to a doctor or is this a normal withdrawal?
Avatar f tn you should be fine. you took the eq of 1 1/2 10/325 percocet. 15 mgs of oxy.
413886 tn?1203607351 Hello all, just a quick question. Is there any difference, as far as wd's, between oxy's and hydro's. I've heard that the hydro's are less aggressive. Now I know that neither are rainbows and butterflies but I wanted to know if any of you had an opinion on this. After a car accident 4 years ago I went through percocet wd's could turkey. Worst 2 weeks of my life!
Avatar f tn My husband is addicted to 30 mg Percocet. Is soboxon w the best way to go? I've read soboxon can be addictive and very long process. Any other options?
Avatar n tn You say in your title that you're a percocet/oxy abuser. You also say when you were 21 you had a problem with Oxycodone. Then, you stated that "I do not have an addictive personality at all but I am sure after all this time and all the mg's I will experience the rath of withdrawal!" Just wondering...do you think you're an addict?
710547 tn?1295446030 I tapered down from very high doses a few years ago, but just 2 months ago, reduced down another significant amount (from 120mg Avinza and 20 oxy to 60 ms contin only). Now I'm tapering to 30mg. Pain is a real enemy, but withdrawal, even tapering, is rough. The 1st drop was too large probably - took 12 days to get past the bad symptoms. But now, I feel like I'm just prolonging this. Yet I need to be able to function! Not sure how this will go!
Avatar m tn Endocet is oxycodone aka percocet.... maybe they gave you some in the hospital and expected it to the positive or if you just took it, maybe it had not had the time to process and show in your urine...
Avatar n tn yes, and if you start having addiction probs with the oxy. you could start shooting herion, it will control the oxy w/d symptoms. I think you see where im headed with this, you are going the wrong way. Get back on the subx detox plan and speak with your M.D. about things to help with the symptoms. Self medicating with oxy is not going to help you get clean, Communicate with your MD. let him know about insomnia, bone pain,vomiting ect. dont prescribe meds for your self. i kicked a 40-60 mgI.
Avatar m tn m sure its the percocet but am alittle confused about the difference between Percocet and the oxycontin as they both have said....OXYCODONE... on the label is the oxy just a time release percocet?
Avatar m tn This Tuesday will be 30 day clean from Percocet. I've been abusing for the past 6 months between Percocet and Oxycontin. whichever was available at the time. My last trip to the Dr. got me a bottle of 90 5/325 Percs. and I went through the entire bottle in 7 days. Basically I had another 3 weeks until I could get my next script. This time I've decided not to go back and get myself off of them. Absolutely correct that the first 3-4 days is the worst.
Avatar n tn im on 600mg of OXY and have been for about 3-months, just wondering what to expect when getting off them, The current plan is im checking myself into a clinic on Monday
590280 tn?1310087366 Whats the difference between say a percocet 512, vicodin ES to a 5mg oxycodone generic for percolone
230262 tn?1316645934 the statistics must be staggering if a nation wide survey were taken on how many have had a problem with hydro. It must be far more addicting than oxy even which is notoriously "the worst" according to most. Just curious if anyone else thinks so too.
Avatar n tn I just read this post and am not sure how helpful my response will be now...but, I am a week off snorting percocet and oxy contin now and feel fantastic! i hear ya tho on the sinus and nose pain, even your eyes. I will tell you what helped me, right or wrong it WORKED for me, with of course the will power and the want to quit it.
