612205 tn?1225594910 I don't know if it's habit forming, but my doctor thought about putting me on neurotin for nerve pain. She said it works really well for that.
Avatar m tn Oh, and milk would not be "habit forming.
418155 tn?1205409893 I feel like I am beating this habit, although some days the pain is just too bad and I cave. Anyway, a friend of mine mentioned that he takes diclofen for various sports injuries and that it helps tremendously. I've never heard of this drug before. Is it an opiate? Obviously I do not want to trade one bad habit for another but if it is non-narcotic and can help with my severe pain I would like more info... Thanks!
Avatar f tn Yes it is habit forming. Why do you ask?
Avatar n tn benzos like xanax, valium and klonopin are not designed to be sleeping meds and anything u use for sleep can be psychologically habit forming but benzos are physically habit forming as well....dalmane and restoril are 2 benzos made for sleep...habit forming tho....maybe break ur pills into quarters or thirds...and go down a small piece each week...OTC meds like valerian root or melatonin may help..tylenol pm...
Avatar n tn I'm looking for a relatively mild, non-habit-forming, liver-friendly sleep aid, either prescription or over-the-counter. Is there anything out there that you all have had success with? Thanks much in advance.
Avatar n tn but it breaks down into a drug called meprobromate which is habit forming..indirectly, soma is habit forming and not the best choice in muscle relaxers for any addict to take. It is a drug that can work well if not abused..but some people tend to like abusing soma/ and if used daily in big amounts it must be tapered like benzos and trams....someone who takes 2 soma a day as RX-ed is not in addiction territory and most would not have an issue...but an addict may so it is not worth it...
Avatar m tn My doctor said this drug is being prescribed more and more to help recovering addicts fall asleep at night. It is non habit forming. I took it every night for about 3 months, then stopped. I fell asleep perfectly normal the next night. Everyone is different, but maybe talk to your doctor and see what they think. Hope this helps someone.
Avatar f tn Ambien can be habit forming if taken long enough it relaxes so you can sleep. Percocet is very habit forming, mixing these drugs with out your Dr. advice may be dangerous so you may need to see him or her. Tapering will be your best way to slow down the dosage, dont try to quit cold turkey it could do you more harm than go. Get help let us no how your doing.
Avatar f tn I would not drink at this point ur baby is forming and i would think if ur drinking during that critical period then the baby could have physical deformities or you could lose the baby early. Smoking hasnt been proven to do so much harm but drinking definately has.
Avatar n tn Tramadol/ultram/ultracet (ultracet having tylenol in it) is habit-forming and not recommended for people with prior addictions...it was originally advertised as not being habit forming but it affects the same receptors as narcotics do...tram also has an antidepressant componenet which makes wd even more difficult due to the depression factor during detox...it is supposedly not "as" habit forming as other narcotics like hydrocodone or oxycodone if taken as prescribed...
Avatar n tn but most are either habit forming or antidepressants that 1) take time to work, and 2) may have side effects you wouldn't tolerate. You must get sleep. That is your goal. Wondering around in day slightly fogged in with sleep deprivation is just asking for trouble. The best would be to see a psychiatrist who is experienced, and can ask you the right questions about what is going on in your life. I once went three solid weeks without sleep.
Avatar f tn Nope!Wellbutrin is neither habit forming nor mood altering!
Avatar f tn ve now been taking its an anti anxiety medicine helps with RLS and sleep and anxiety. But that is easily habit forming. I wish you luck!
Avatar m tn Is the clonidine habit forming. My pain doctor will prescribe it, but my family doctor prescribed Valium for the anxiety, I was having heart palpitations from the anxiety. I'm hesitant to take the Valium, since it can be habit forming.
792787 tn?1259877840 first off, congrats on day 8, seems like the worst part is behind you!!! second, i'm not a doc, but I'm pretty dure your body naturally produces Melatonin, so I dont think it's bad for you to take. I dont think it's habit forming like those prescription sleep pills. Same with the Magnesium... You're doing Great!
Avatar n tn it also has an anti-depressant quality as well which makes them a humdinger to withdraw from ..habit forming and not super powerful in the pain relief arena but very addictive for many people..there is no tylenol in ultram or tramadol/but ultracet has tylenol in it so liver problems if taking alot of them can be a concern....like cathy said..why do u ask?
Avatar m tn It has always said that it was habit forming ..Its nothing new exempt more people are taking the time to get the insert info .
Avatar f tn Is it an OTC aide or prescribed? Have you tried melatonin? Its totally natural and non habit forming. It worked great for me the first week or so during and after detox. Sleep has gotten better for me but still reach for them here and there. You can find them in the vitamin isle and there not too pricey. A little excersise followed by a hot bath with epsom salts especially if you have restless legs can work wonders to promote sleep.
518798 tn?1295212279 it is an amphetamine and psychologically habit forming like cocaine...so is phentermine ..
1807779 tn?1333840302 t take it and I pay for it later in the day with the tiredness settling in. I know it is not addictive/habit forming, but I hate taking all these pills and that is one I can skip at times. Have you asked your doctor about this? As always, please don't take my comments as medical advice because everyone's situation is different.
Avatar n tn Thanks to you and everyone else who gave me input concerning neurontin. I started it last night and it seems like it is reasonably safe for me. Thanks again!
Avatar f tn They are usually prescribed short term while you try to learn to confront your anxiety. In my opinion, they work very well, but can become habit forming over a period of time, so just take exactly as instructed.
Avatar m tn Ativan & Valium are both very habit forming. Are you looking for a taper Schudule? It may be wise to get your prescribing Doctor involved.
