Avatar m tn I would think a good Pharmacy or a Pain Clinic would order them for you. The generic is Oral Transmucosal Fentanyl Citrate (OTFC) and the trademark name is Actiq®, manufactured by Cephalon. I would also check to see if your insurance covers them. I wish you the best...
3178266 tn?1344536316 You should try unsweetneed prune juice. Just drink an 8 oz glass of prune juice before bedtime and some water afterwards and you'll go in the morning just fine. I also have severe constipation issues and I tried Miralax, Sennakot S, Fleet Enemas, and Magnesium Citrate. Miralax used to work but doesn't anymore and just makes me severely bloated to the point I can't breathe and caused severe abdominal pain.

A couple of weeks ago, I noticed that it had turned pink and then as time went on, I noticed that the subcutaneous tissue was disappearing and I could see my epicondyle in detail. So, I realized that the soft tissue in my elbow was wasting away.
Avatar n tn The chemical compound potassium chloride (KCl) is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. In its pure state, it is odorless and has a white or colorless vitreous crystal appearance, with a crystal structure that cleaves easily in three directions. Potassium chloride crystals are face-centered cubic. Potassium chloride is occasionally known as "muriate of potash," particularly when used as a fertilizer.

Avatar f tn I am 36 weeks tomorrow. I have had problems going to the bathroom my entire life. I'm used to being constipated and having to push to go #2. But due to being pregnant and a certain medication I'm on, the constipation is much worse. It gets stuck and I rip and bleed almost every time I go. And I can only go every 5-7 days or so. With 2-3 of those days trying to go. Btw, I do take Colace everyday. So my fiancé suggested I drink a bottle of citrate.
Avatar m tn I hope i am posting this in the right place, if not could someone help me with where to post it? Please? I have been injecting fentanyl for less than two weeks. My question is are the withdrawals going to take as as lon as someone who has bee on the fentanyl patch? I hope not because the half life of the patch is days and the injectible is 186 min i think. I am hoping the withdrawal from the injection will be much shorter than from the patch.
Avatar m tn Two years ago I went to an ER due to severe pain in my right shoulder which my shoulder had to be replaced ( reverse arthroplasty), at the time in the ER they gave me a Fentanyl injection. Nothing happened. The pain never let up. I was told that it happens occasionally.
Avatar m tn Doctor said it is due to disuse atrophy and adviced PTH injection which is expensive. The bone fragments have not united well till now and this is likely a case of delayed union. I am taking very healthy diet and calcium citrate +vit d supplements. Despite all these the non union is making me feel doubtful of tenofovir being the culprit which I am taking from past 2.5 years. Shall I stop tdf? Shall I take PTH which is expensive? I am healthy male 34years. Kindly suggest the needful, thank you!
Avatar f tn I was on the Fentanyl patch (1 no 50mg patch and 1 no 75mg patch) for about 6-7 months but wasn't getting on with them. The first doctor I saw told me to just take my patches off and replace it with a 50mg Buphrenorphine one. About 4 hours later I was starting to feel strange and then that evening went into cold turkey. Thought I was dying I felt that bad. Had to call the doctor out, she gave me an injection (can't remember the name of it, was a bit out of it at the time).
Avatar f tn That is a possibility BUT Fentanyl only comes as a patch, injection or a sucker which is known as Actiq or something close to that. It's not offered as pills, as far as I'm aware.
Avatar f tn Usually the doctor will tell you not to take any opiates 8 or so hours before your injection if they are also injecting you with something like fentanyl along with the steroid. Tramadol is technically an opioid, although synthetic, it is still considered a narcotic. Tramadol and Tylenol are not the same as Tramadol is an opioid as well as acts as an SNRI. You should google Tramadol and read about it before you take it or call your doctor.
3039221 tn?1340461200 and some oral (narcotic) muscle relaxer one day and A steroid - oral Rx and injection and Delaudid injection and oral diazepam 2 days later when there had been no improvement. The treatment helped just slightly - I still suffer terrible pain, cannot stand up straight, but the crying has ceased. I saw my Neuro yesterday, but this time I was prepared...The ER doc suggested Fentanyl patch. I looked it up, printed 25 pages of indications, opioid conversion charts, patient instructions, etc.
Avatar f tn I have been taking 1 magnesium citrate 200mg at bedtime for approximately 1.5 weeks. I do have a history of headaches, but since I started taking it, I am waking up with severe headaches which seem to last 3 to 4 hours. The only other thing I take is a B6 vitamin. I take no prescription medication, so I know it is not an interaction. Everything I read says magnesium is good for headaches. Any thoughts?
Avatar f tn Hi, i recently started taking magnesium citrate. the thing is i have read the regular dosis is 600 mg of magnesium... the product i bought has 530 mg of citrate magnesium with Vitamin B6 125 mg. in the prospect it says you can take up to three capsules a day... What confuses me is that 530 mg of magnesium citrates is equivalent of 47,6 mg of "elemental magnesium". i have read that regular dosis of elemntal magnesuim is approximately 200 mg.. sooo...
Avatar n tn Everything is normal, therefore, the doctor prescribed the following antibiotics, Offlox 200, Tamflo 0.4 and Zerdol (Paracetamol) for a month. Also citrate soda for 5 days. I took all as described by the doctor except the zerodol (took only for a week) which hurt my stomach as i have stomach ulcer. But the condition has not improved and the burning feeling has increased now. I have consulted the doctor again and he has prescribed Citralka Liquid and urispas tablet for a week.
Avatar f tn My PM doctor was prescribing 50 mcg fentanyl patches to be applied every three days. They were going to give me a urine screen, but I have interstitial cystitis and a neurogenic bladder. I was unable to provide enough urine, so the nurse gave me water to drink. I was on my way back to the bathroom, when someone other than the nurse stopped me to say I was having a saliva test. I went back to the room and continued to drink water, because I have dry mouth from taking Lyrica and Lamotrigine.

1931709 tn?1335833095 this is especially important as some moms are concerned about the meds affecting the baby in anyway, and the mom too!... my sister had fentanyl prior to her epideral and she was right looped from it and wishes she would have just waited for the epideral instead (she had planned on the epideral from the start) but my point is knowing what IV meds you are open to get and the different ways they may affect you... i had fentanyl before my epideral as i was a mess!
Avatar f tn I am sorry. Yes I got my injection (steroid) Thursday and a prescription for Fentanyl 75mg patches too. ( I am very reluctant to fill) so far the shot are actually helping. Apparently Thursday was a "procedure' day and I was not "scheduled" to actually talk to the doctor, so I didn't.
Avatar f tn t nerve pain! So will let you know, if and when I wake up after the Fentanyl (and IF the Fentanyl) kicks in! It didn't help at all when I used it years ago, but i will try again, really, they don't give you any options, its that or....NOTHING! (at least in my case) I'll post later. Thanks for writing, I am so sorry for the cancer pain, I do know about that, and only a morphine pump seemed to help.
