Avatar m tn My husband takes morphine pills and if he does not wash his hands after taking them, if he touches anything in the house can it be passed on to anyone if they touch what he has touch? and can they have a bad urine test?

1386676 tn?1280247305 I had absorption problems with the gel patches as well. After three days there was either nothing left in the patch on day 3 or at least half a patch left. Very spotty. A lot of people around here find they provide great pain relief, though. I think the preferred brand is Mylan and most of us are from the US.
Avatar f tn Ok so I'm only 21 but have had for over a year on and off gel like sacs in my urine that are hard to push out. I also for well over a year have had burning when I urinate and weak/ no constant flow. I also feel like I can't ever finish like I need to continue to empty my bladder. I find myself constantly feeling like I need to pee and often I will go and only a little bit comes out. Lately again though when I finish it ffels like there is more and if u push the little gel sacs come out.
Avatar m tn I found a new gel today the Drug Emproium and will do a post on it. It has Cobra Venom in it, yes like in the snake and ya know what...IT WORKS, it took away ALL my pain and it was only $15. I had a busy day today and was so glad to get home but still taking 4 hydromorphones today, I hope to either deal with this volume or eliminate them. I still have some energy but the diareaah kicked in today but that's about all as far as withdrawals.
Avatar f tn Yor description of your arthritic pain could have been written by me! It is somewhat unusual to have so many joints affected. My mom suffered terribly with the same. I'm also in my early fifties. My arthritis started in my twenties. In 2007 I had a joint replacement in my thumb. Unfortunately the implant itself failed (in most people that had it.). I had 8 more surgeries that resulted in me developing RSD/CRPS.
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.
1855076 tn?1337115303 Opana ER has the new TimerX technology that is supposed to keep a steady level of the medication in your system for the full 12 hours versus the medicine tapering off after 6-8 hours in the case of morphine sulfate ER and Oxycontin. The have a wide range of strengths available with even a low enough dose of the opioid naiive patient. I won't start taking it until Monday after I speak with my doctor about the dosing as I think it is a little on the high side, especially at night.
82861 tn?1333453911 Mylan pharmaceuticals makes the patches I prefer. Instead of a gel reservoir, the fentanyl is embedded in the adhesive. Less chance of abuse that way, but no doubt someone out there has already figured out a way to do it. As an aside for any of your patients who find the gel patch wears off in 2 days rather than 3 - try the Mylan version. For me, they last the full 3 days with no problem.
237039 tn?1264258057 I have been given Morphine in the hospitals during my heart attacks, and most recently was given Morphine quite frequently. I was told last April, the reason they were giving me Morphine at short intervals is because it "oxygenates" the heart. As long as I had the chest pains they were administering the Morphine at 30 minute intervals. I protested the frequent use, but was told it was for that reason I was being given that much.
Avatar f tn ve had a C6-7 discectomy with fusion in October 2008. I had a C4-C6 discectomy with cages and fusion with the hardware removed from C6-C7. I've been to headache clinics in Chicago, sports medecine and rehab doctors, physical therapy, acupuncture, neurologists, rheumatologists, 2 spine centers, pain management, and biofeedback. I am scheduled for a repair C6-7 fusion (pseudoarthrosis) with a laminectomy of C7-T1 and bone spur removal next week.
7598782 tn?1392903245 s getting better relief from Voltaren in pill form now than she was from the Morphine. The gel form is really effective, as well. Hope that this helps.
Avatar f tn In general these types of problems (epiretinal membrane, retinal hole, macular hole) often have to do with the natural aging and degeneration of the vitreous gel. When the gel degenerates it can collapse and pull away from the retina sometimes causing a retinal hole or detachement. The surface of the retina can also wrinkle or pucker because the gel is not there up against it to keep it smooth.
Avatar f tn This has happened with Demerol, Diluidid,Darvocet,Hydrocodone and Tramadol. I can take Tylenol #3 and morphine (post op in the hospital) with out any problems. Sometimes,if I take one of the itchy ones with Atarax and benadryl I'm ok for awhile, and then the itching will eventually get too bad and I will have to switch to something else. Tylenol #3 dosen"t work very well for the pain, so my PCP is always looking for something else to try.
Avatar f tn Hi Woodsey. I can relate, having been diagnosed with Reiters in December, and have never gotten over it. The pain is massive and I've been seeing a pain management specialist.
Avatar f tn But like 10 days ago I got some fentanyl patches. Not perscribed, but ive been cutting them in fours and eating the gel. Like a patch a day for 10 days. This was before I read all the bad stuff on fentanyl. I agree it was extremely bone headed to do this. And I'm stopping. My question is how bad will the withdrawal be after only taking it for a little more than a week. I took something called kratom to help with the morphine. Will this help with fentanyl? I have 3 patches left.
Avatar f tn Started me on 15 mg morphine sulfate ir 4 times a day. I have tapered down to 1/2 a tablet in the morning, for the past 3 days, if I just quit how long will the withdrawals be? I know that it has a very short half life and will be nothing like the methadone.
Avatar f tn t been careful with them OR in the case of the Gel Filled patches where the Gel has leaked and they got more of the med than they were supposed to get. Just be sure that you are careful. If you use the Patch made by Mylan (it's the one that I use) you won't have the problem with the Gel because it's the one that has the Fenatnyl med in the adhesive and is much safer than the Gel Filled for us Patients.
Avatar f tn my friend dissolved morphine tablets in hot water then injected it into her vein is this going to hurt her?
654183 tn?1225309036 No one puts a drug in solution and then in a needle to squirt in their mouths. They could use an eyedropper to do that. You may need to wake fully up here if you wish to save your marriage. And you have legitimate concerns for health. I have already done a years worth of experimental chemo from the Mayo Clinic because of my carelessness. It is no joke. I would be glad to chat if you wish to PM me ---- unfortunately the bottom line seems to be that he needs to want to quit for himself.
Avatar n tn too much morphine can result in death. I would advise you to call your pharmacist for information - they would be able to give you pharmaceutical information that would clarify this situation. I am sorry for you loss and the experience around it.
Avatar m tn I recently started having extreme back pain had a MRI and I could not believe how bad my back is l4 and l5 is sitting on my nerve of s1 I have been taking MS Contin 60 milligrams for 5 years now from an accident in the surgery room. I take percocet 7.5 - 325 and it does not touch my pain. I called my doctor and he suggested ibuprofen 800. I took one when I was in extreme pain level 10 and my pain was gone within an hour completely gone.
Avatar n tn s on 110mg twice a day with liquid morphine viles in between to keep him going - however, the morphine seemed to make his symptoms worse and he has turned into someone i dont even know - he wont allow me to contact him so i feel useless and obviously very hurt and worried about him.
