Avatar m tn I had neck surgery three months ago before that I was on Morphine xr 60 mg and oxycodone 20mg and soma I now quit taking the Morphine regulary I only use it now if it's my last resort. I am taking about 25 milligrams a day of Oxycodone and want to get off of it without using Seboxin or Methadone. I don't want to trade one drug for another! help please give some advice. Herbs? food? dosage to cut down? My doctor said a half a millagram a week? Doesn't seem right.
Avatar f tn I have been taking 100mgs of Zoloft throughout the pregnancy. Around the end of 1st trimester, I also started taking oxycodone 5mgs (2-3 a day). It is prescribed. I have one healthy child who is 5 1/2. I took paxil durin that pregnancy, as it was before they upped it to pregnancy class D. I tapered down to 20mgs during that pregnancy. It was hell, but the baby was and is super healthy. I haven't tried to taper off of the zoloft. I don't feel like I can.
Avatar m tn you name it, I have been compliant and done what has been asked of me in every regard. OxyContin and Oxycodone in combination Zanax XR, Cymbalta®, Soma, Lyrica®, Lisinopril HCTZ, Lidoderm® patch has been the best combination to control my pain. In late 2011, my pain became much more intense. At this time, I was prescribed, 240 mg of OxyContin/day and 45 mg Oxycodone/day in combination with all other meds mentioned.
Avatar m tn Adderall XR helped my Cerbral Palsy. I took about 40 mg and my spastiicity feels cured. I think of what may of actually helped too is I took my pain medicine oxycodone too. I am so happy right now I could cry. I don't want to wake up and beb back to normal lol. I am going to call my doc.If you want more info from me my email is ***@****. There is never anyone with answers or helpfulness.
Avatar f tn and people I have talked to that are on the Opana they use the Opana IR for breakthrough with the Opana ER. Have you ever tried Oxycodone HCL (immediate release) 15mg, or 30mg tablets for breakthrough pain? I am on Morphine Sulfate and use the Oxycodone for breakthrough and it works well... until your body adapts to the oxycodone and you require an increase in the dose... that's my only hurdle with it.... good luck....
19478376 tn?1478445910 Hi there, the title says it all. I have been using this for a while 150mg XR Venlafaxine and 15mg 2x a day Salts. For once in my life I don't have severe depression episodes I stay awake all day and sleep well at night. I moved and this new psychiatrist claims that I will die from Serotonin Overdose if I keep taking these. I also take Oxycodone and Tramadol now and again for my chronic back issues deriving from manic episodes when I was younger.
Avatar f tn This drug I feel is comparable to Oxycontin (Oxycodone) and Morphine as far as side effects and withdrawals are concerned. I also find myself at times craving Effexor for its "numbing" effects. This has turned me off to any anti-depressant/anti-anxiety medication and now I only go to therapy. I find that I function without it much better and I feel like myself again. How can I ever take medication again without a concern for something like this to happen again or even worse?
Avatar f tn The medication I am on is Depakote XR for my bipolar, depression, and my neurologist is keeping me on it for my seizure episodes. Xanax for my anxiety taken only as a "as needed" medication, and Oxycodone for my chronic pain. For many years I have suffered from visual and auditory hallucinations, night terrors, and sleep paralysis and have even acted out nightmares while sleep walking (issuing a knife to carve into my chest).
921335 tn?1244185872 is it safe to come off xanax, crack, and zoloft and take a small dose of oxycodone 5-325? have already tapered off xanax from 24 mg 2 years ago to 3 mg daily. please don't say see a dr. i have 2 one writes too much and the other is ok but will never disclose to fully. have stopped the smoke thing - have done that several times. have been taking 1 mg xanax xr a day and 2 of the oxy a day for a few days now. i feel somewhat shaky and all.
17277382 tn?1455209810 I have been taking oxycodone 10 mg for more than a year. It was working well, with other medications and non-medical management, but recently, it doesn't work as well as it used to. I'm thinking that it's probably a matter of tolerance. But how do I bring this up to my doctor without sounding like a drug seeker? I don't want to go in there and say "I need stronger meds" or "I need more pills a day.
Avatar n tn Ahh Pristiq, The new SSNRI. Actualy just a slight tweek on Effexor XR. Interesting fact about Pristiq..... Wyeth's newest Antidepressant medication Pristiq, is actually kind of a sister drug of Effexor XR. In fact in terms of the active ingrediants molecular structure they are about 98% the same. You know why the Drug Company Wyeth would produce a drug so much like Effexor XR?
Avatar f tn Thank u for basically telling me what i already knew but was hoping someone would say otherwise. As far as who told me 2 take oxycodone cuz im hurting and everything going on.... Honestly if i had them i'd probably would've already taken it, sadly. but my dr dropped me after missing an appt and thats how i ended up in detox cuz i couldnt stand it on my own.
Avatar f tn Strattera, Adderall XR, Vyvanse, and Daytrana are medications I have taken, my brother takes Concerta. Vyvanse and Adderall XR are the only meds I can take. I have a real sensitive stomach and immune system, and am allergic to a lot so I would think that you can handle most of these.
Avatar n tn Let me clairify. Venlafaxine is the exact same active chemical that is in Effexor XR. The difference is (and this is a huge difference when were talking Venlafaxine) that Effexor XR is an extended release formula. This is where the "XR" terminology comes from. Meaning Extended Release. The Generic Venlafaxine has no Extended release properties to it such as Effexor XR.
397906 tn?1208241269 i have been taking xanax xr for 6 months now. originally i started of 2 mg daily, but after a few months i started to feel better so i gradually lowered my dose to .5mg and have been on this dose for 3 months now.Is it possible that xanax xr can cause PVCs?, i seen in your earlier posts that you say xanax xr builds up rapid tolerance?well i am concerned because of these skipped heart sensations that i have been getting, i also have mitral valve prolapse since i was 16(now 22).
Avatar f tn I then took Effexor and later ther Effexor XR. Effexor XR allowed me to live a reasonably normal life raising a child and having a career. For at least 3 years my depression has slowly gotten progressively worse. My counselor and I believe it is time to add an additional medication, possibly welbutrin or change to a different antidepressant. Currently I take 300mg of effexor XR. This is the same level I have taken for the entire time I've used effexor. I would like input and advice.
Avatar f tn I'm currently taking both Effexor XR (Venlafaxine XR) and Lithium Carbonate to treat co-morbid my mental illnesses. I'm just wondering, for anyone taking Effexor XR to treat their Generalized Anxiety Disorder, how do you find it has helped you, in what ways do you think it is inefficient, and what sort of side effects or issues have you had with it?
Avatar n tn my doc wants to wean me off now, its been about a year. xanax xr doesnt come in .75 so he wants to start me on xanax xr .50. Is this to fast to come off of it? Has anyone here ever weaned off of the xr before?
603543 tn?1255294450 My dr gave me samples of generic effexor xr the other day to try, over the weekend i took them and had the most awful headaches...Im so afraid to take them now..Ayone heard anything about these?
397906 tn?1208241269 Is it ok if i continue to take is as i have been on this dose on .5 mg xanax xr..Is it ok to just continue taking the xr and drop the Buspar..which doesn't do a thing.I have been on this medication for almost a year with no side effects.
Avatar n tn I was also diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago and was prescribed Adderal XR. The Adderal XR was effective at combating my ADHD symptoms but made my anxiety worse, so my doctor prescribed Strattera. I found the Strattera to be not nearly as effective as Adderal XR, so without consulting my doctor, I began taking both medications together. This is working extraordinarily well.
Avatar m tn I mentioned about switching from Effexor Xr 225mg (which on my own I lowered to 150mg) He said that Effexor XR affects two different areas of the body whereas Zoloft only affects one area. Now he mentioned NOTHING about keep taking the Effexor Xr in lower does while I make hte switch to Zoloft. Am I supposed to just switch right over to Zoloft and discontinue the Effexor Xr??
Avatar m tn has anyone made it thru the effexor xr withdrawals with success, if so please give detalis on how you did it, i will be starting to taper off of it soon, i really would like to stay off of this drug once im completely off of it,----i know everyone is different but theres got to be some info on how to do this------

Avatar n tn My daughter has been on Effexor XR 150 MG for about a year. She recently found out that her insurance would not pay for this medicine. Her Dr. put her on Zoloft without wheening her off of the Effexor XR. She is experience symptoms that include feeling very dizzy and nausea. Is this Dr. correct prescribing her this new medicine without slowly wheening her off of the Effexor XR. Are these symptoms due to her going "Cold Turkey" with the Effexor XR? Please advised.
Avatar n tn Hello, I hope you can help me. I started taking Effexor XR last month. Recently, I've been experiencing really horrible migraines. They strart in the morning, and last all day, and nothing relives them. I saw my therapist on Friday and she wanted to to start weeing me off by taking 1 as apposed to 2 per day, and starting be on a combination of prozac and "something else".
603543 tn?1255294450 I hate to see you have to switch from Effexor XR if it was working well for you. You are correct that Celexa and Effexor XR are very different in terms of what neurotransmitters they effect in the brain. Celexa being an SSRI and Effexor XR being an SNRI. For depression has heavy symptoms of fatuge and exhaustion, then an SNRI is always a better bet becuase they tend to be more energizing.
