217599 tn?1202850952 my husband just had major back surgery, and the dr. prescribed oxycodone for the pain. he really needs it, but we are wondering how long he can take it before he becomes addicted. not that he wants to take it, he just can't stand the pain without it. his incision is 10 inches long, down the middle of his back. he is also itching a lot. could that be from the drug?
Avatar f tn My pain management doctor recently switched me to hydrocodone 10-500 due to pharmacy crack downs and I am itching like crazy and having bad nightmares and don't sleep well and grind my teeth bad. I must be having an allergic reaction? I'm not allergic to anything but this now. I'm suffering in pain cause I can't take these side effects! I was on Oxycodone 10-325 and didn't have any problems.
Avatar f tn , 10 mg of morphine equals 5 mg of oxycodone). Therefore, 5 mg of oxycodone is about 16 mg of hydrocodone so oxycodone is about 3 times stronger than hydrocodone. However, geminigirl is right in that everyone is different. I have read that some say hydrocodone works better for their pain than percocet and viceversa. For me, percocet works a lot better for my pain. Hydrocodone does not come without acetaminophen...yet.
598384 tn?1222432684 ALL pain meds cause me to itch and especially Oxycodone. I itched my way through a c-section and the aftermath, only to go onto the TT... Aside from the fact that I just plain hate pain meds, it's yet another reason to get off of them ASAP! if you need the pain meds, ask for the "reaction to pain meds" med.... Hope this helps.
19579692 tn?1480373351 Hi, About two months ago I started getting unbearable itching on mostly my upper body. I've had no increase in the meds I take (Oxycodone, MS Contin, Neurontin, Lexapro, Benzodiazepines). I've seen my MD, pain doctor and finally a dermatologist. I'm now on Hydroxyzine but can only take right before bed due to extreme sleepiness. I am awaiting all blood test results but so far they look good. Sarna lotion helps but have to keep applying every half hour.

681148 tn?1437661591 I have since been diagnosed with post herpetic neuralgia. I was prescribed 5 mg of Oxycodone as needed along with the Gabapentin for the God-awful stabbing pain and accompanying painful creepy crawly sensations. This pain has been so bad that I have cried myself to sleep on occasion. The neuralgia began in January and I've noticed for the past week that the sensations and the pain come and go. I rarely take the Oxycodone but still need the Gabapentin on the prescribed basis.

Avatar n tn low dose formulations of oxycodone such as percocet(oxycodone/acetiminophen(tylenol)) or percodan(oxycodone/aspirin) which is most commonly given in 5mg or 10 mg tablets is usually given after certain surgeries and for people in severe pain. both oxycontin and percocet abuse has grown in popularity immensely in the past 10 years. its extremely drastic how fast it has arose to being a DOC for people. and the wd's are the same as other opiates of its kind like heroin or dilaudid.
