Avatar n tn no, hydrocodone is vicodin. Morphine sulfate is the active ingredient in morphine. If you are worried about a possible reaction to the medication, I would speak to your local pharmacists. I'm not sure if hydrocodone and morphine are in the same family of drugs. I know vicodin and percocet are in a similar family (due to codine), but morphine is much different. refer to this website. http://www.rxlist.com/duramorph-drug.
Avatar m tn Does Tramadol have as much SSRI in it as Zoloft? Does 100mg of Tramadol have as much SSRI as say 50mg of Zoloft? I was taking Tramadol while I was going through Zoloft withdrawal and I'm just wondering if I stunted the healing process of my Zoloft withdrawal. My body and mind still don't feel 100% since quitting Zoloft, but it's definitely getting better.
Avatar f tn who has me on 30mg of morphine and 10mg of oxy. I still am in considerable pain. I go back in three weeks to have him re-evaluate my pain. I am not sure what they can do,, but I hope it gets better than this.
Avatar f tn He is now taking 60 morphine(30mg pills) and 90 vicodin(500mg pills) on a monthly basis. Sometimes he runs out and can't even make it 30 days. His doctor (VA clinic) continues to prescribe both along with sleeping pills and anti-depressants. If you ask me - it's overkill for sure! He is angry all the time and has frequent outbursts of physical anger. He is absolutely miserable to be around.
Avatar f tn In morphine I think the pill is stronger. You might have to cut it in half but at least you would have the option.
Avatar f tn I have been in Pain Management now for five years. Gone from Vicodin to Morphine, from Morphine to Spinal Stimulator & Vicodin. With failed stimulator (for what ever reason) back on Morphine and Morphine mg getting higher & higher. I have reciently been placed on Morphine patch. When put on the patch, will your body go through withdrawals symptoms? I dont feel ill in any way, I feel depressed and worthless...
Avatar f tn html#fentanylpatch On this site they convert various fentanyl doses into an equivalent morphine dose. It is widely accepted that morphine and hydrocodone are fairly similar, almost identical in terms of potency (http://www.globalrph.com/narcoticonv.htm) although i consider this comparison too generous and see hydro as being more akin to dihydrocodiene So, 12mcg of fentanyl is equal to 22.5mgs - 65mgs of morphine per day which in turn is equal to the same amount in hydrocodone.
Avatar f tn The problem is I have pain on my right side just at the bottom of rib cage which radiates into my back. I have blood in my urine. The pain is intense without medication. People that I have spoken to have all said it sounds like kidney stones. But after xrays,ct scans it has shown no stones but a cyst that is growing. Could this be the cause of my pain as my consultant says that the cyst cannot be the cause of pain. I have been on morphine now for 4yrs. Can anyone help pls.
Avatar n tn I am an Engineer that has worked in the industry for over 12 years. The last 6 years I have been on pain medications. First Tramadol and then vicodin, and now morphine and percocet. I continue to do a great job and produce fantastic products. My managers know about my chronic pain and are very accepting of the pain medications I take as they don't affect my job performance and they know that I am responsible with my meds.
Avatar n tn I asked this question a couple nights ago but now can't find it. So here I go again. I've used Vicodin (6-10 pills a day for a year) following surgery with painful, slow-healing complications. Now, three weeks ago, I had surgery again for revision. My doctor's given me Dilaudid. I'm just finishing up a prescription for that (60 pills). My question is, will the Dilaudid w/d symptoms be similar? (I already went through Vic w/d's.
Avatar n tn Something should have remained in your system. As Molly said it will sometimes appear in a Urine Drug Screen as Morphine but it should not in a blood test. I am sorry that you are in this situation. I know it doesn't help but others have had this happen to them also. It seems to be an unexplainable phenomenon. Why on earth would they think you are selling? Most likely because there are so many that so sell. I know no body.
Avatar f tn t get out of bed for days and it was miserable. But it passed. And it will for you too - you just have to believe in that AND more importantly, believe in yourself. What are you doing for aftercare? Do you have a support system in place?

Avatar m tn Im on day one off of Vicodin and morphine abuse. Was sober for 15 months and relapsed in late August. Had been doing the Hydro the whole time and morphine for 3 weeks, Im feeling pretty bad but I refuse to give up. Does anyone know how long ti kick this? Its only been 6 weeks tops of using. Thanks!
667409 tn?1309152183 I missed the whole thing, but I can see it has been deleted (Pam and I can see deleted posts). She couldn't have done it, so the mods must have. It was getting pretty argumentative, so they do that when that happens. Pam and I can delete posts as well, but I never have and I don't think Pam has either.
Avatar m tn Aloha Mellie, I was taking the morphine for an injury to my foot that was extremely painful. The doctor gave me vicodin but it didn't even hardly touch the pain and a friend gave me the morphine. I am 62 and had major cancer surgery twice dut ot cancer of the tonsils and they had me really out there on morphine. But the also were able to wean me with out any WD's so I figured I may be able to do the same on my own especially since I have been taking way less than they had me on.
Avatar f tn Hi there, I am obsessive/compulsive so when I went to my doctor the 2nd time addicted to percs and oxys I was terrified if one day when I need pain meds what would happen. She 1st asked me if I was going to intentionally hurt myself which of course I wouldn't. We put a plan together so I could feel better and not obsess about it. 1st if I ever need surgery she will give me demoral or morphine by IV in the hospital. I will never be given anything related to percs or oxy.
Avatar f tn 12 panel but they dont test for vicodin (hydrocodone) they test for oxycodone and opiates that are metabolized into morphine in the body, such as oxycontin, dilaudid, heroin and of course morphine. According to the pharmacist hydrocodone isnt considered dangerous enough to be tested for. I asked her 'do they live in a bubble or something??
458848 tn?1206519711 hi, you shoul look for docs especialized in pain management,they are usually annestesists,and have a big experience using opioids,opiates(methadone,morphine,vicodin etc) for fibromialgia.hope u get better...sorry to just respond now,but im a new member...hope u get better soon.
Avatar f tn hi, i have been having back pain since i was 13 years old.
Avatar m tn Even when I shattered my leg skiing and I was in the hospital on a MorphinePatient button drip, it did nothing. Does anyone have this problem of Morphine drugs not having ANY affect on pain for them? I don't even feel the side affects and I am still going through the DT's from the Methadone. At least the Methadone kept my pain at bay so I could function.
Avatar f tn i am worried about withdrawls i have copd and hep.c in remission, should i have ever taken this drug?should he have given me something more than hydrocodone10/500 to come off of this med. i know that i am not susposed to have that much acedimine, what do u suggest i do about this? this hydro. does not help my pain,it really takes a lot of it and i just can not get another dr. right away.i thank u very much for your answer about the morphine.
Avatar m tn I have had 3 back surgeries and both knees and hips replaced. I have sever nerve damage in right leg and rsd in foot and ankle on same leg. I have terrible radiculopathy also. My pain doc thinks I need to.come off oxy and switch to Suboxone for pain relief. I've tried titration down at home but I've had severe diarrhea, vomiting and panic type attacks. So he wants me to switch over to a pca pain pump with dilaudid then discontinue the oxy and then switch to eurozone.
Avatar n tn What is the right way to detox i have forgot my meds and been in detox mode lots of time in the last eight years and it's not fun. I'm really scared,frightened, about all of this detoxing, but i also want to get off of all cii's controlled substances. please help me with some ideas. I have a friend whos dr is giving him valuim to help him through detoxing.
1407445 tn?1281318016 Hi. I have detoxed from Vicodin ES as well as several others over the yrs, including Morphine (after 1-1/2 yrs) as I was waiting to get into a pain management program. Every time was just as bad as the 1st for me, so I very much sympathize with what you are going through. I think Shelli pretty much summed it all up in her answer and better I think, than I could have. lol I also take Klonopin and have muscle relaxers and I took them both.
Avatar f tn i even wonder if i should go through with this/ i have been taking vicodin for over a year due to pain and im scared to have surgery with all the vicodin in my body does any one know if that will affect any thing?
