Avatar n tn Oh, by the way, you can take ibuprofen along with the percocet even though the percocet already has tylenol in it, because ibuprofen and acetominophen are able to be taken together. Just don't take more tylenol along with it, because that will be too much tylenol and it could damage your liver.
1326416 tn?1370927001 I am currently taking percocet as a break through med with morphine sustained release. I didn't have a choice on what I could take for breakthrough medicine. I don't take more than 1950 mg of tylenol per day via the percocet. I think the percocet and the vicodin puts a "cap" on how much a person can take before destroying their liver. My doctor has been very trustworthy of me but always wants me to stay on these combo meds.

Avatar f tn Is it safe to take 800mg ibuprofen & 650mg Percocet (each pill 325mg) together at once?
1930941 tn?1400107522 The first 48 hours is the most challenging; if you do need the opiate, you can follow it with the ibuprofen as the next dose--all with your doctor's consent and instructions, of course. In our surgical practice here, most of our patients used far less opiate pain medicine this way. I wish you an easy time of it! Let us know how things are going, and feel free to ask more questions.
Avatar f tn I got Percocet, prescription strength ibuprofen, and Loritab
Avatar f tn t cut it for you then the next time that you can take some meds take the percocet. By the third day I barely needed the advil anymore. I hope it starts to feel better for you soon! Take care and keep us posted.
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 m tn Hi, I had arthroscopic ACL reconstruction 5 days ago and was initially prescribed Percocet (5 mg oxycodone 325 mg acetaminophen) for pain. Now that my pain has lessened, I only take it at night because it makes me fall asleep almost instantly. Physical therapy is painful and ibuprofen doesn't help much, but I dont want to take percocets during the day so my dr gave me a prescription for 50mg tramadol, which I have never used before.
1225178 tn?1318980604 My body aches have intensified in severity and and frequency in the past few weeks and since Tylenol doesn't work for me, I was taking Ibuprofen 2 to 3 times a day and it started getting to the point where my stomach felt kind of raw when I'd take it. I told my doctor about this and he told me that he didn't want me taking Ibuprofen more than once a day. He wrote me a prescription for Ultram which says it is for moderately severe pain.
Avatar f tn I had a c-section with my first. The gave me percocet in the hospital and to come home for the pain. I breastfed and used formula (I didn't have enough milk). My baby was fine. I didn't think the recovery was that bad. I telly didn't have any pain after being home a couple of days.
Avatar f tn After that, you just get Tylenol or ibuprofen, unless you had a csection or other complication, they may give you percocet. You can get tylenol and ibuprofen in liquid or chewable tablets as well.
Avatar n tn She suggested taking a dose of ibuprofen and then when it was time to take another ibuprofen, take an acetaminophen pain killer instead and continue to alternate. Apparently, after the 8 hours (if it's 800mg prescription strength ibuprofen), the ibuprofen is still working a bit and the acetaminophen will take over and help whatever part of the pain the ibuprofen didnt.
Avatar f tn If you go down the whole taking way more than prescribed then start mixing with alcohol then Hun you must be clear with your doc. These are not to be mixed. And tramadol at high doses can be very dangerous so it's in your best interest regardless of the alcohol issue that you take only the dose prescribed.
Avatar f tn My doctor told me it was ok to take, but I only are in small doses. I cut the pill in half and only take one half at a time when I am in pain. Also be aware painkillers are highly addictive and misuse of them can result in addiction. It's relatively safe to take (depending on who you ask, a lot of people will have different opinions) but I would be careful with them.
973849 tn?1274946979 Pretty intense the last year. I have to keep my job and home so I still just take Ibuprofen. I found out I had very big benign tumors. I had an artery embolism to try to help. It causes great pain especially the fist night in the hospital. I don't have blood pressure problems but my pressure went very high and they gave me blood pressure meds. The pain meds there took the edge off the pain. They sent me home with percocet and hydromorphone if the first wasn't enough.
Avatar m tn I was wondering if you could tell me if meloxicam would be better for pain relief compared to 800mg ibuprofen. Also does it take time for meloxicam to build up in my body for maximum benefit? If so, how long does it take? Thanks very much!
Avatar f tn Try taking a half a pill of Vicodin for a few first nights just to make it easier for yourself. Then you can take some Tylenol instead together with the ibuprofen. They work well together for pain. Never take Tylenol while taking Vicodin though, because you may ovedose on acetominophen and damage your liver further. You should not have much withdrawal on the dose you are on, so don't worry about it. Go0d luck to you and feel well.
Avatar f tn In the hospital they gave me pain meds and then when i got home i took one percocet and then one again before bed. I get through the whole day today on ibuprofen but I am going to take another percocet before i go to bed because the pain at night is much worse. Tomorrow I am having my mom throw the rest of the away. My question is, I was finally starting to feel beter from bein off the subs. Is this going to set me off into w/ds again.
Avatar f tn ve got scoliosis in my mid to lower back, fibromyalgia, severe arthritis (especially in my back but also now in both hip joints making walking more than 2 blocks impossible. I take the maximum dose of ibuprofen every day, but now it's starting to affect my kidneys, so I've got to back off some. I take antidepressants from a psychiatrist, which don't work well with like the main drugs for fibromyalgia plus others.
699217 tn?1323438700 Often they are combined with other drugs, such as Tylenol or Ibuprofen, and are marketed under many brand names. Oxycontin is, as mentioned, is time-release oxycodone. It carries a particularly high risk for abuse and overdose because if it is crushed before ingesting, or crushed and snorted, it causes a huge rush because an amount of drug meant to last 12 hours is released very quickly. I don't know much about Tramadol.
Avatar m tn t think muscle relaxers are addictive, except for Soma, at least in my experience, and can sometimes be helpful with neck and back pain. Ibuprofen or Naproxen is good for inflamation and muscle relaxers for spasms. I am not sure what else you can take or what you are looking for. Any Narcotic is potentially addictive, so if you have had problems with them in the past they would be hard to get off of.
Avatar m tn My question is - with the different medications your doctor has prescribed are you still alternating them with the ibuprofen? If so, my thinking is that perhaps the culprit for the rash is the ibuprofen and not these other meds.
Avatar f tn If you having a rough day and need more, rather than taking more of the narcotic, just take two ibuprofen with your oxycodone. That will boost the strength of the oxycodone only when you need it, and not cause you to be taking an overabundance of unnecessary Tylenol. Hope this helps.
Avatar f tn Liver pain would be a symptom that showed up later in liver damage. If you stay with what your doctor prescribes, you should be fine. I don't think you have anything to worry about, especially since your doctor checked your liver enzymes. I'm sure you're aware that a lot of things have acetaminophen in them. So you just want to make sure you don't take anything else that has it in it. You also shouldn't drink alcohol, especially if you're at the upper limit.
