Avatar n tn Previcox and Prednisone should not be given together. This combination increases the danger of gastrointestinal ulceration and other problems which can be dangerous. Benadryl should be safe, but it can rarely cause breathing problems. Prednisone can also cause increased panting. Previcox can be safely used with Tramadol (another analgesic), if the Previcox is insufficient alone. Put your dog on 5mg. of Pepcid twice daily to try and prevent GI issues. Pepcid is available over the counter.
Avatar f tn She also has a history of arthritis and spondilosis but has not needed meds for that as yet. The vet has advised against surgery given that she is almost 12 years old. He has prescribed her Prednisone which she has been taking for 4 days. It has not seemed to help, she appears to be in pain when she moves and is pretty much immobile as her back end appears to be weaker than last week. We had been on a short walk last Friday.
Avatar f tn He gave me Tramadol 50mg, Prednisone 20mg (cut in half 2x a day), and I was told i could still give Previcox in hoping this would reduce the swelling around the nerve. Everything I've read says not to give prednisone & previcox together. I'd already given prednisone & tramadol before I'd read about the previcox. My issue is I'd like to give her previcox, but don't know how long I need to wait after having given the prednisone.
699217 tn?1323438700 For me prednisone was both a lifesaver and the devil drug. I have Crohn's disease and if it were't for the pred I probably would have lost a good portion of my colon. Then I became prednisone dependant and every time I would try to wean down I got so sick-once my adrenals crashed and I ended up in the hospital for 2 weeks. I was never on a very high dose-maybe 40 to begin with and then tapered down.
1388214 tn?1301331216 I almost took my migraine meds on top of my tramadol and prednisone. On a whim I figured I better check the interaction on drugs.com. I did. Tramadol and Maxalt could be a dangerous combination. Glad I checked. I will add that to my calendar of good luck wishes! I have thought that if I get a diagnosis, whatever that is, if it is disability eligible then I would apply. I appreciate the advice on the documentation and to get an attorney involved.
Avatar f tn Good morning. Does your kitty cry? If not, maybe it's the tramadol that is making her so subdued and not eating. Cats don't do well with drugs that may affect how they feel i.e., dopy, druged out. They seem to need all their facuties about them at all times and if that is changed because of drugs they can have some bizare reactions. I believe when you first posted, you said she still was happy and purred and ate.
Avatar f tn I have been coincidedly withdrawing from Tramadol and experiencing a COPD Flare. My last dose of Tramadol was12/02/13 I started the Prednisone on a 30mg tapering dose regimen which is about out now. My BP and P is still elevated, I am not carrying fluid in my ankles, but have gained about 10lbs in the past week. I am also experiencing continuing lower back pain for which I was prescribed Methocarbamol. I am still having some wheezing on exhalation and dyspnea on minimal exertion.
Avatar n tn deterioration due to old age...most common treatment may include Prednisone and the pain killer Tramadol wich CAN be taken w/ Predisone...
Avatar f tn Ask them to prescribe a 5% transdermal lidocaine patch and a few days of oral prednisone. Oral prednisone has many contraindications but if used for a short period you will have no problems.
Avatar n tn The bruised ribs can be helped by comfrey tea (an ancient treatment going back 2,000 years), a couple of cups a day. The Ibuprufin and Tramadol is O.K., and a traditional treatment, but remember the hospital Ibuprufins are 800 mg and the ones you but at a store are only 200 mg. They are a tad hard on the liver, but don't be afraid to take more than one. Get off the prednisone as soon as possible. It's appropriate for short-term use.
Avatar m tn My Boston terrior jumped off the bed, and hurt himself. He was yelping when I got to him. He favored his left paw. I took him to the vet, and she put him on rimadyl for a week. It didn"t seem to help. I took him back and another vet checked him, and put him on robaxin, tramadol and prednisone. He isn't getting better, he is worse. He goes into a room and stares at the wall. He yelps every time he walks.
Avatar n tn Took her to the emergency vet and they prescribed Tramadol and Robaxin (pain and muscle relaxer). Took her to our normal vet on Monday and he said to continue those meds and also gave her a steroid shot. She did well throughout the week... still stiff but seemed to improve. Last night, Thursday, she seemed to be in pain again. She wasn't as bad as she had been on Saturday but was walking stiffly and holding her head oddly again.
Avatar m tn The report read read I have a herniated disk at L4 and l5. I had tried prednisone on two different accounts and it made no difference. I had tried chiropractics for 5 weeks and made no difference. I have an epidural done last week($500 no insurance). my leg is still gos numb but there is now less pain. I also take 1800mg of Ibuprofen and 50 to100mg of Tramadol a day. I have been off my feet and out of work 4 weeks.
5003461 tn?1362225264 Opiates are contraindicated because the pain comes from glial cell stimulation. Neuronton and Tramadol cause loss of mental acuity. Basically NSAIDS are what should be taken to relieve the pain. Stress is a componant and a few days of valium wouldn't hurt, but for idiotic regulatory reasons they are very reluctant to prescribe this drug. I Vietnam, where I was a platoon leader and company commander, I never went around with less than 400 rounds, four smoke and two frags.
Avatar f tn I was given my first dose of Lyrica last night and I slept brilliantly for once, today I've been very sleepy and when I took a nap I couldn't stand up when I awoke because my hip just flared up so badly I couldn't even walk. Luckily I am in hospital, so they gave me morphine straight away and its feeling much better. I really don't know very much about Lyrica and I'd like to hear what some people have experienced with it.
Avatar m tn I have back issues from a head on collision I was in 3.5 years ago. It has caused muscle issues ever since that will flare up from the tiniest effort. For instance last week I took some plastic totes down from my sons nursery closet that were filled with the next size clothing. That set it off. It went away after a day or two...or so I thought. Then I changed his mattress pad and sheets 3 nights ago in the middle of the night, doing it in Supermom speed. Lol!
Avatar m tn My dog had a disc injury in his back Sat.23. Vet prescribed prednisone & tramadol. Can't pick him up & he can',t stand to pee or poo. Any advice? This is the worst incident yet.
Avatar m tn Therefore, I am hoping this might open the door for some relief for some of those that suffer from chronic non-allergic rhinitis. Also, I recognize hydrocodone and Tramadol are opiates and must have a prescription. Opiates, especially hydrocodone, can have significant abuse potential but I perceive Tramadol is much friendlier in this regard and, at least for me, provides consistent and significant relief from a problem that is sometimes too distracting to allow normal daily activities.
Avatar f tn On top of all of this i have hep c. I am taking between 9-15 10/325 a day. With 200mg of tramadol and 3 10mg of valium a day Im also going through pre-menapause I have 10 hydros left 10 valium and 50 tramadol left. I have been attending NA meeting but only my daughters know about the pain pills One is a RN. I NEED TO Know how to taper down w what i have left. I do not have ins. But have saved $ to see a specialist in dec. Guess what.. i own a hair salon n i need my feet n hands.
8886329 tn?1400432058 He diagnosed her with basically degenerative disk with pinched nerve and gave her less than 50/50 chance of ever walking again. He started her on 2.5mg of Prednisone, Tramadol for pain, and Pepcid to protect her stomach from the Prednisone. By Thursday morning Roxxie was worse, she can now can not use her front legs either. I called the office and talked to the tech and told her my concerns.
Avatar m tn When was the last time you used Tramadol?
Avatar f tn I can feel ribs, Rusty is now on a Prednisone taper, Flagyl, Tramadol, and Generic Immodium. Her appetite appears to be improving though I must moisten her dry food and add a little canned dog food to her diet. Hanging udder near back legs appears a bit smaller. Insists on going for walks (is a little peppier today). no matter how she feels. Is drinking a lot. More control over peeing now that she is eating. I am feeding her 3 times a day at least.
Avatar f tn Its a opiod and it has the same potential of abuse but low rates of abuse because people prefer hydrocodones and oxycodones. But tramadol is a little weaker opiod and it also works on your seratonin levels so its little different. So treat it as the vicoden if you are looking at tolerence and addiction. I have bad headaches, migraines and neck problems. No tumor but its pain that debilitates me and i am often left feeling lifeless and sorry for myself.
Avatar m tn 4 months ago I began a therapy with prednisone (25 mg per day) and one month lather I got tested for hiv 1-2, the result hopefully was negative and all my blood exams were normal (but antibodies against HBV positive, without virus). My doctors said me that hiv is not a problem for me. However i began to worry again because it was been told me that prednisone is an immunosupressant and I fear that it could hide my hiv antibodies. What do you think about? Sould I have to get another test?
Avatar f tn t really taken off but there is a huge difference. And now that I have tried the Prednisone and it helped I feel AMAZING! I am a horse trainer, and there is no way I can go out and train horses during the day. I can do very minimal work even still. But it makes me happy and that is the best drug out there!! Your mind set can change everything. My boyfriend has Cystic Fibrosis and he is the same way. It helps to have some one who is going though the same type thing as you.
