Common Questions and Answers about Neurontin vicodin
neurontin
It is always best to check with your doctor. But since your doctor is out of town you could call a pharmacist just to verify everything. That being said I will say that you should be fine just stopping it but I would check with someone in the health field first just to be safe. I was taking about 1800mg a night for ten days while detoxing off of vicodin. I didn't feel any negative symptoms from stopping it.
m looking for something other than Vicodin, Percocet and Neurontin (3600 mg/day) to use for pain. The Vicodin works a little bit, as does the Percocet. The Neurontin also works a little bit and again, am looking for one pain RX that would work for all instead of taking more than one. Have a friend on the Fentanyl patch and she swears by it. Says it is much better at pain relief than the Percocet or Vicodin and she's not on Neurontin. Please help.
I just want people struggling with the debilitating side effects of vicodin withdrawal know that they don't have to suffer. Ask your doctor for neurontin or gabbbapentin. I am a 3 year severe (20-30) norco addict and I decided to stop the maddness but was afraid of the muscle pain i've felt before. With neurontin I have none of those spasms cramps or depression and mood swings. It also gives me no "high" feeling at all so its not a temptation for abuse or addiction.
I have taken neurontin for withdrawals from vicodin and it helped tremendously. I was originally prescribed neurontin for nerve pain due to sciatica but it didn't help with that. I read about it on the net and found it is used in some detox facilities for withdrawals. When taking it the only symptoms I felt were the chills, a tad bit of anxiety, and a little lack of energy. I have went cold turkey in the past without anything and can say that when I used neurontin it made a huge difference.
It sounds like you have tried everything but I will still ask just in case, have you ever been on neurontin or similar anti seizure meds. I also have fibro and migraines, I totally understand the smell thing, mine isnt as severe, but exhaust, perfumes, lots of smells can trigger a flare up.
I'm detoxing from vicodin and norcos that I've been taking for about a year now. I was taking 7-10 a day. Its been 2 days without and my main side effect it anxiety. I wanna know if it will even go away and if so what is the normal time for it to last?
I have nerve pain, primarily in my lower legs, and have been put on Lyrica, Neurontin and soon will start on Cymbalta to see if I get a better result with the pain. In addition, I am taking baclofen before bedtime for the pain.
The good thing about baclofen is that it helps relax the muscles spasms, but doesn't do anything for the numbness/tingling. Thats ok though because the numbness and tingling are not my main concerns anymore.
If neurontin stopped the pain when a pain pill like ibuprofen or even Vicodin doesn't then it does seem like your Trigeminal nerve is involved. Doctors often give Tegretol as a way to diagnose Trigeminal pain.
There is a great diagram of the Trigeminal nerve and all it's little sub-branches on Bartleby .com. Look for grays anatomy book on their website. The Trigeminal nerve has sub-branches into every tooth.
what type of issues r u having with it? Lyrica is the new neurontin..more abused than neurontin but has not been cited as physically habit forming//much stronger with more of an urge to abuse it for some than neurontin//altho there r peeps who abuse nyquil
trams affect the MIU recptors same as narcotics do//they also affect seratonin levels making depression a big issue with wd from trams..trams are physically and mentally habit forming..
Hey Gizzy how are you?I am doing ok.I have a problem with these darn tramadol's and want to put a end to it.I used neurontin for the vicodin w/d's a long time back and they worked pretty good.I slept,no body pain or rls.It has been a while since I used it.I remember not feeling like 100% but it was way way better than going cold turkey for me.I remember it making me feel drowsey some what and I remember my feet would tingle but other than that it worked well for me.
I have recently been prescribed to Robaxin, Vicodin and Gabapentin for back pain/sciatica. Anyone have experience with these meds?
whether u were abusing them or not...i know about 2 years ago, i was taking Vicodin 5mg, 6 per day for about 1-2 months, never abused them, had pain, etc...when i stopped, i felt like ***@**** called my doc and he said, yeah, could be WDs...i had no idea...i looked it up online and sure enough, it was...
i didnt use Nuerontin though, so someone else may have a different answer....
I have been treated w/Vicodin for awhile now for chronic pain. I have now moved from the US to India, where it is not available. Any recommendation for alternatives? I can't take codeine long term, and take Effexor, neurontin and metformin daily, w/Soma PRN as well. I can have scripts shipped here if need be, but wold prefer to avoid the hassle/expense.
I have been on vicodin for a nexk injury since February. I started to see a pain doctor but I keep coming up short. It's ruining my life. I have kicked a worse addiction to oxyir several years ago. I have some klonopin 0.5mg, tizanidine and flexeril. I cant keep living this way. I'm not strong enough to taper down. Does anyone have any suggestions on things I could take. Last time I used neurontin but I don't have those this time. I haven't gotten the pain yet but I can sleep.
I have read a few things about Lyrica, but I would like to know what other's experiences have been. I had a fusion at c5-6 about 1 month ago. For the first 3 weeks, the terrible pain I had near my shoulder blade was gone. Around week 4, the pain started up again on the other side of my body. Pre-surgery, I just had right side pain. That is gone now but I have left side pain. I am taking vicodin, but I obviously can't take that forever. I have to go back to work in 2 weeks.
Thanks so much for your response. Yes, I am on a bi-pap machine; however, the sleep apnea I think began well before I gained the weight, and I have read where it can actually cause weight gain (a chicken or the egg debacle). I woke up with headaches so bad I had to get up to take the pressure off my head against the pillow. That was 100 pounds ago. I thought it was just migraines, but always found that getting up and moving around cured the headache more often than not.
Hi...my history is this: 8 years ago had terrible back injury and since have had 6 surgeries. Over the years I've taken different levels of vicodin, oxy, morphine, percocet, percodan, neurontin...and muscle relaxers, sleeping pills, anxiety meds... Right now I'm doing the best I have since my injury. Currently I'm taking vicodin 7.5--4/day, neurontin 600mg--6/day and avinza 30mg--2/day.
I've been taking Vicodin for about a month now due to back issues and subsequent surgery. I'm still in pain but I want to stop taking them sooner rather than later. Will I have problems with withdrawal after taking 10/325 every 4-6 hrs for about 30 days now? Should I plan to do anything special?
Thanks for your help...I want to stop this before it becomes a problem.
