oxycodone and caffeine

I have an annular tear in one disc and a bulging disc with bilateral nerve impingement. I have been taking oxycodone HCL 15 mg for about a week now, I am prescribed three a day as needed for pain, but have only been taking about 1 a day. Before that I was on 10mg Percocet three times a day for a month. My ob/gyn said that it wasn't a big deal and my specialist said that I would need to wean myself down during the last trimester.

I'm seven weeks clean of oxycodone and still experiencing awful symptoms both mental and physical (which I feel may be some type of post acute withdrawal.) Aversion to food, nausea, dry heave spells, fatigue, insomnia, pounding heart episodes, severe anxiety attacks, mood swings, depression and diarrhea. I've been avoiding Caffiene every time I have anxiety attack episode (which is from opiate WD.

With the recent news on Tylenol I won't take it now drink a lil caffeine and whole bunch of water then lay down with a cold compress

It really depends on the individual. I am 195 lbs. and I take 25 to 30 mgs of Oxycodone a day and it has started to give me the effects you speak of after about 8 months. I notice that I feel more awake after taking my medication but then tired as it is time for the next dose. This is probably because my body has become tolerant and dependent on the medication. I also don't sleep well because of my pain and that may have something to do with it also.

Went to my pain management dr and she scheduled an epidural steroid injection and gave me a prescription for 120 oxycodone 10/325 to take every 6 hours. I do not think the injection helped but the percocets definitely helped. I been back to her for 5 refills already and she's starting to get suspicious. She keeps telling me I need to see a surgeon, but i really dont have time to deal with that. I'm down to my last 25 pills, but stopped cold turkey yesterday at 3pm.

I have bad back, neck and shoulder problems which have me on 60 mg of oxycodone/day. This whole thing is so weird and frustrating. I am trying to wean off of the Oxycodone and know I could do it but this breathing. thing is working against me. I have good days and bad days. But the pattern I have noticed is that in the a.m. after sleep, I am fine. If I go sometime w/o thinking about it I am fine. Here is the strangest part though. I am fine up until I take the oxycodone. Then I struggle.

A look at an opiate milliequivalency scale would be needed or people experiment. And by the way Oxycodone is Percocet is Percodan is Roxicet, is Oxycontin (Oxycodone with continuous action for 12 hours).

Make sure you drink plenty of fluids(water, gatorade) and stay away from caffeine. Immodium works for diarrhea. Get up and move around as much as you can as that will help with the anxiety and sleep.

Hi Sue what is Oxycodone? Do you get it from the doctors? I too have chronic gastritis and it is agony on flare ups. I take Pantoprazole,Gaviscon and I can take Sucralfate. They don,t do much though. Its really awful isn,t it I hope you find relief for your pain too.

I had my gallbladder removed Wednesday and have been on Oxycodone since Wednesday night. For some reason it started affecting my sleep yesterday. I tried laying down for a nap but could not sleep. I slept an hour or two last night. When I try to go to sleep my thoughts start racing and I just cant sleep. I really could use some sleep. Help.

Anyway Dr gives me a medicine i inject B12 weird-and gives me talwin nx- for pain to take with my oxycodone to help my pain more and tells me if i go to pain clinic and the call him he will prescribe what they say. I am confused this talwin has naloxone in it- i am about to research it but i believe that is what they use to reverse overdose effects.

I'm at the end of day 19 off oxycodone and I've had wicked awful heartburn. Never had it in my life except twice well pregnant 15 years ago. Anyone else experience this? I was also wondering if it could be all the new vitimans I'm taking?

Sorry I missed one part of your question. Backhurtz is correct that the doctor is giving you dilaudid to take instead of the Oxycodone. That being said, you might want to call and ask what he or she wants you to do if they were not clear about it. Most times when I change meds my doctor gives me a written plan that entails reducing the drug I was on while at the same time increasing the drug he now wants me to take until I am completely switched over to the new drug.

I'm 19 and been on oxycodone 30MG 4/day for over 7 months. I am now 6 days off the medication. When will I mentally start to feel normal again?

m trying so hard to fight threw the days and not have caffeine its just so hard when im dragging all day and have little ones to chase after today I had 2 big cups of coffee and have been doing research my dr said and I have seen online the recommended dose is no more than 200 mg of caffeine a day I dont want to harm my baby I didn't drink caffeine with the others I'm definitely not gonna have 2 cups in one day again I've got myself all freaked out and hope that i havent hurt the bab

Hi, I am on 50mg of Zoloft and I can't have caffeine. It is very tricky for me to avoid caffeine being that I'm not sure what has caffeine and what doesn't. Is there a list of common everyday foods and drinks that do not have caffeine in them?

t live without my coffee, went from 3-4 cups a day to one in the morning. And here and there have a soda...as long as they are not the only things you drink all day every day I was told it's not a big deal.

I know chocolate has caffeine, and the piece I had on Sunday to take home was cut into four seven inch in length by 3 inches wide pieces (it was a tall layered cake with peanut butter in between the three layers!). I had one piece yesterday and another today then my grandmother freaked me out! I know I shouldn't eat cake while pregnant...no nutrients, unhealthy etc. etc. BUT do you really think it has a lot of caffeine and that I could have hurt my developing baby? Thanks!

I have trouble concentrating and become dizzy easily. For those who have the same issue, do you find it difficult to tolerate caffeine and does it worsen your symptoms? It seems like it does not matter how much water or Gatorade I consume if I have a diet coke I feel bad the rest of the day. I'm tired of feeling bad!

Hi. My husband and I of three years are trying to conceive our first child. I am a healthy 27 year old at a good weight and good diet. The only bad thing is I'm pretty hooked on caffeine. I don't drink coffee, but I do drink one Sugar Free Rockstar energy drink per day, which has 160 mg of caffeine. Since TTC, Ive cut down it down so that this one energy drink is the only caffeine drink I have each day (stopped drinking caffeinated sodas on the side and replacing with water, juice, etc.

The fresh ground coffee will be much stronger and contain more caffeine. You can buy caffeine reduced coffee and also dandelion coffee (this contains no caffeine and is a bit of an acquired taste!) Stick to 1 of two cups of coffee in a day and don't drink any caffeinated drinks (that includes fizzy drinks and tea) after early evening. Keep a record of your symptoms so that you can avoid your coffee drink if you want to feel calm and have a good night's sleep.

I just wanted to know if any of you guys know a replacement for caffeine that gives the same alertness and focus without giving the virus more power.

Yet there are days when I sit at my computer at work and I just feel like dozing right off... and I need the caffeine to wake me up. I HATE IT, yet I know otherwise I would pass out. So what are your thoughts? What should I do?? And again, please answer my first question as well. Thanks!!

Oh boy. First of all, it may or may not be the caffeine at all, but if it is, chocolate is the WORST source. The amount of caffeine "like" chemicals in one Hershey Kiss is equivalent to a full cup of coffee. It is not caffeine, but a similar chemical that stimulates the brain and releases endorphins/adrenaline--thus the almost addictive craving for chocolate in some of us. Also, red wine is a major trigger for many arrhythmias including SVT.

i also was told that if your takin prenatals that caffine is natural iron blocker and that.. so if you consume a lot of caffeine and are trying to take prenatals or vitamins it can counter act them so your not getting the nutrients u think you are. just thought i'd add to that info.. good to stuff!
