Avatar m tn I was on morphine SR 60mg twice a day for years and my doctor switched me to fentanyl 25 patch. I ended up with severe withdrawal and went back to the morphine for a week until my next appt where he put me on the 50 patch. Still I am going through withdrawals. My pharmacist says I can't be but I know 100% that's what is happening. Anyone else deal with this?

Avatar m tn About 1 month ago my pain management doctor increased my dosage of morphine sulfate from 10 gm to 30 mg (1 every 12 hours). Shortly after I began taking the 30mg morphine sulfate, I started to develop a slight rash. Over the last week, the rash has become much worse and a real problem. I've been taking over the counter benadryl tabs to get some relief from the rash which is helping a little to relief the itching and rash.
Avatar m tn what would happen if someone took (about) 20 ml of morphine sulfate(concentrated), which is 20 mg per ml? I got some m.s. from someone, and never asked how much was "safe", though, i do realize taking it at all is unsafe unless directed by a doctor. i took this amount yesterday, within a 2 hr period. lastnight i vomitted a lot, was too scared to go to the hospital (another stupid move i know) if i feel good, should i still go to the hospital?
Avatar m tn can you take percet with morphine sulfate er 30mg? in other words can you mix the two together?

Avatar m tn I have the multi level disc desease, both back and neck pain. I have been on several pain meds, shots, etc.. from the pain guys. I now take morphine sulfate 30mg time released 2 in 24hr period. I also have the percocets for break thru. I was up too 100mg morphine suf, like above. Over time I started getting dry mouth to the point of driving me mad. I been on meds for this for years, but the 100mg finally was working good for the pain.
Avatar m tn I am in pain management and have been for years. I am on 400 mgs of morphine sulfate every 6 hrs and 15 mgs of Hydromirphone as needed for break through pain which is about 4 to 5 a day. My taper has been a fast one. I went from 400 mgs of MS a day to 200 for a week and now two days ago 60 mgs in the morning ONLY and taking the Hydromorphone every 4 hours. Is MS the same as the Hydromorphone? From what I read it is, one is long acting and the other is short.
Avatar m tn Are you experiencing any reaction or similar side effects with the long acting Morphine (Kadian)? As Dmoonchild said Kadian IS Morphine. There are several brand names for MS (Morphine Sulfate)..... but in the end they are all basically the same or similar chemical structure. Your previous reaction may have been related to other factors, such as the type of Morphine, any other medications you were being prescribed or simply your systems reaction at the specific time.

Avatar f tn HELP!!! I am coming down from a 520 mg /day morphine sulfate. Took my last dose last night. Have no refills. I am sick right now....feels like bad flu but worse. **** know what to do. My kids are with their dad. I am so scared. Need advise.
Avatar m tn My wife, who takes morphine sulfate ER and oxycodone IR for chronic pain. She does a urine test every month. For the first time in several years, 10+, her results showed a positive result for codeine, 107 ng/mL. I found an article that said a small amount of codeine may show up in patients taking high doses of morphine due to possible impurities in manufacturing. Is this correct? Has anyone else run in to this??
1907946 tn?1321916894 Hello and Welcome to the Pain Management Forum. I am so sorry to hear about your father's pain. Do you live in the UK? A better question may be, "Is this the best we can do for pain control." .. regardless of a person's age. It is generally true that seniors tend to be more sensitive to medications, all medications then the younger population.
Avatar n tn I am comming off morphine sulfate - I still have 30 pills left - 20 of the 15mg IR and 10 of the 30mg ER - I just want to be off this drug and the withdrawals are more than I can stand. I have been taking them for almost 2 yrs now and want to stop. I am looking for any advice to help me with deal with withdrawals.
Avatar f tn I am currently prescribed morphine sulfate 30 mg and morphine 100 mg. I recently took a drug test where Oxymorephone showed up in my urine test. Does either of these pills contain the components of oxymorphone or opana? Any help will be appreciated!
Avatar n tn my mother is very sick, ran out of her morphine sulfate early due to overtaking of her perscription and is now experiencing bad withdrawl symptoms?
Avatar n tn I've been taking Morphine Sulfate 15mg. slow release tablets for 2 weeks. The back pain I had is gone and I want to stop taking the Morphine. Is it safe to stop or do I have to wean off of it? I also have the quick release 15mg. of Morphine which I haven't had to use. Will I have some sore of reaction if I stop cold turkey?
Avatar f tn the doctor of my mom suggested to take 30mg of morphine sulfate once a day but we have only 10mg of it... is it okay to take it 3 10mg of morphine at the same time?
Avatar f tn hi folks have a some questions about changing pain meds. My mother who has cronic back and shoulder pain is being taken off of fentanyl 100mcg patch and 7.5/500mg and being put on morphine 60mg 2x daily and then morphine sulfate 15mg every 4 hours for breakthough pain. What I'm wondering is there going to be withdrawl or is the morphine going to have enough of the same stuff in it. If not what kind of withdrawl systems will there be to watch for.
Avatar m tn s hard to tell which one is making you feel so unmotivated. I take Morphine Sulfate ER with 10mg percocet breakthrough and the only side effects I have are nightmares and constipation. I eat really healthy. I eat oatmeal twice a day with chia seeds and I try and bike a few minutes a day. This gives me more energy then I can deal with. What you eat and your activity level can really impact the energy you have through out the day.
Avatar f tn I can't eat. I can't sleep. Every few seconds, my legs twitch and jerk. My body feels as if it has been invaded by an army of red ants. I know what is happening. I am going through withdrawal. Except I am not a drug addict. I am a 65-year old woman, wife and mother, who has been a chronic pain patient for more than 15 years. For most of that time, I have been very, very lucky.
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 I wouldn't give him the morphine. It could constrict his breathing. Instead, take him to a vet. He will need pain killers specially for dogs, such as Metacam, or Rimadyl or something else perhaps. He will also need his condition fully checked out.
Avatar n tn I went to a knew Dr yesterday & he put me on Opana ER 10mg 2x a day & Morphine Sulfate IR 15mg 3x a day for break thru as needed. I've been on Roxicodone 30mg 6x a day & Norflex 100mg 2x a day prior to this appt yesterday. From what I've read on here the Opana ER is a good pain reliever after it gets into your system in approx 4-5 days so I'm hoping that is true bc so far I've not had any relief but I'm gonna give it a few more days.
Avatar f tn Im on hour 36 of my heroin withdrawal and i was going to take a smaller doseage or morphine sulfate maybe 30 mgs but i need to know if it will restart my withdrawal symptoms or not?
