445312 tn?1205376479 roxicet is percocet, roxicodone is oxycodone. Roxicet and Roxicodone are slang so the person at the clinic may never have heard of it. Keep posting daily and we will all help you get through this. I was feeling great 2 days into stopping the vicodin I thought I could quit smoking too, not a good idea, I caved on that after 2 days. I said let me take care of 1 addiction at a time.
Avatar f tn So I have been on oxycodone and roxicet ( not at the same time, the dr will write it for one or the other) Both meds are 5-325 strength. It seems like everytime I get a script for the roxicet I end up getting very sick to my stomach and vomiting. I am taking the medication as prescribed. I know the two medicines are basically the samething so my question is, why is one medication making me sick to my stomach while the other one does not?
Avatar n tn I've been on doctor prescribed Roxicet (5/325) for the last 4 years due to neck and shoulder pain. I had gotten to the point where I was taking 2 pills every 4-6 hours. Due to some long hard work with physical therapy I was beginning to feel like I could start going off the Rox. Then on Monday I got a "bug". I threw up for 2 days. Since I wasn't able to hold anything down I didn't take my meds.
1214626 tn?1288106214 ROXIES is a slang name for Roxicet. Roxicet is the generic name for Percocet. (oxycodone + tylonol.) Very potent, highly addictive but very effective schedule 2 narcotic. Illegal to have without a prescription. As to why it is being snorted, snorting is a way addicts use certain drugs as a quicker way to achieve a high than ingesting. Opiates give a feeling of greatness and euphoria that nothing can explain. The reason people pay so much for them is in short one of the more potent pain killers.

Avatar m tn I have been taking Roxicet for 7 years and need to come off now for work. I take about 5 a day and found that i cant ween with roxicets. I want to ween with suboxones so i picked up ten of them. I understand i will have so rough days but how would you taper with this many? I can get more subs but would like to see if i can do it with this amount. Do i suck on these or eat them? Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated.
217599 tn?1202850952 i have been tapering off norco, slowly for family reasons, and ran out before the taper was complete. i have 4 roxicet given to me, and want to know how small to break them up to equal 1/4 norco. i need to do this to get through the weekend as i need to drive in the city and cznnot have any more nights of zero sleep. i know driving in the city is nothing to a lot of you, but i am a country girl, and need my wits about me.
Avatar n tn Most everything lasts a while past expiration before deterioration, including food. Expiration dates have a margin of safety built in. That being said, the above is true, but vitamins usually have way more that anyone needs in them so a little deterioration in potency isn't that big a deal depending on why you're taking them. After all, much of them just goes down the toilet anyway, so again, a margin of safety is built in there, too.
152264 tn?1280354657 There should be an expiration date on the package--if its expired then I would not use it; pesticides can break down and become less effective or more toxic with time.
1029192 tn?1292981918 So, I finally decided to see my general practitioner today because I just couldn't wait until Tuesday to see my specialist. I really needed to get it off my chest, how I've been feeling...so, I was lucky enough to get an appointment this morning. Mind you, there are, like 20 doctors in this group, and the one I managed to get just happened to be a co-worker's father...anyway...
Avatar n tn s either a Roxicet 30mg or an Oxycontin 30mg. The Roxicet is an immediate release of the whole 30mg of oxycodone and the Oxycontin, if swallowed whole, is a timed release version of 30mg of oxycodone. Secondly, telling a doctor that you have an opiate addiction does not mean you won't be treated for pain. If the doctor is a good doctor, then it just means that they are more cautious with treating your pain. That's why addictionologists are great alternatives for us addicts.
Avatar n tn These were precribed to me but I noticed the bottle expiration date is 10/2008. I have almost full bottles so I haven't thrown them out. Can I consider these safe? My husband says yes.
Avatar n tn Endocet, Magnacet, Narvox, Percocet, Roxicet, Tylox
Avatar f tn You may want to check and see if there is an expiration date. Even if the expiration date is past, there are still okay to use as the expiration date is for the packaging. Good luck.

683319 tn?1226909213 my boyfriend of 2 years just told me 2 days ago that he has been addicted to roxicet for the passed 3 years. He says he wants to stop because he knows all the consequences and he doesnt want to live like that anymore. He does, however think that he can kick this addiction without seeking professional help...can he? he also smokes marijuana because he says it helps calm him down during withdrawal; should he stop smoking too?
Avatar f tn I've had 2 major surgeries in 2 months and have been given roxicet by my doctor. I am no longer in pain and have stopped the pain meds. I now feel constantly nauseous, hot and then cold and would like to know how long this terrible feeling will last.
Avatar n tn I'm on day 4 of a Roxicet taper and having a terrible time sleeping. I just can't lie still in the bed. My doctor had prescribed me Soma for muscle spasm which I had been taking 1 each night before bedtime. Its a great relaxant but I cut them out too (completely) when I started tapering off the Roxicet. Would it be ok to take one at bedtime to help with the sleeplessness or am I backsliding? Is a muscle relaxer considered as bad as a narcodic?
1646889 tn?1301481228 I would question the fact that the pharmacist chose to ignore an expiration date, I don't think they just pull expiration dates out of the air,thet are there for a reason, it is not legal to sell a medication beyond an expiration date, I don't know why you would be advised to ingest one and have it be effective? He may be confusing a synthetic with a desicated medication, it could be synthetics have a longer shel life, but I would not use any that are expired, even over the counter meds.
152264 tn?1280354657 Is an unopened bottle of Systane that's 1.5 years past its expiration date safe to use? At least until I can get to the store for a fresh bottle?
Avatar n tn So I just noticed that my last two packs of pills have the expiration date of 7/2009. Im supposed to start one of the packs this sunday, and that means I will be taking 4 days of expired pills (the first four days of July). Will this be risky? I called planned parenthood and they said I would be fine...and that I can't come in and get new packs since I have two...I'm a little scared these pills won't work since its so close to the expiration date!!
Avatar m tn Hello and welcome to the forum. Could you give us more details? Normally expiration dates are stated on the pill bottles. Here is some general information. https://www.fda.gov/drugs/pharmaceutical-quality-resources/expiration-dates-questions-and-answers. But you should most certainly check with your provider and a pharmacist.
