Avatar f tn My Dad was recently put on oxycontin- short term- for hip pain. He is having surgery next week. My Mom called telling me that Dad was having to concentrate on his breathing, was dizzy and having problems concentrating. I told her to bring him to the hospital. I will be leaving to meet them but I thought that these were all signs of a overdose. I really haven't had these signs when I was abusing so I am not sure. Can anyone enlighten me?

Avatar f tn Over a year ago I took a overdose of BP meds along with alcohol which landed me in the hospitol. I had been seeing a PCP for 4 yrs prior for neck and shoulder injurys, he had me on percocet 7.5/500. When I went for my appt. I honestly told the NP what happened, I was immediately taken off pain meds, told to get counseling with notes brought to them and I have not been able to recieve a pain med since.
Avatar n tn Heart palpatations and irregular heart beats are a serious side effect of the medication. Since your friend has been taking percocet for years, he/she is addicted to the medication. When the medication starts to wear off, he/she is experiencing a withdrawal which can cause heart palpatations and irregular heart beats due to anxiety. Here's a list of side effects and severity: http://www.webmd.com/drugs/drug-7277-Percocet+Oral.aspx?
Avatar m tn I have been taking vicodin ES 750mg 90 tablets a month for the past 2 years due to my bad knees. I was recently switched over to the percocet 5/325 my body was becoming tollerant to the vicodin to the point where they were not relieving the pain anymore. I had the same reaction with the percocet where I had to take 2-3 at once.

699217 tn?1323438700 Here is the easiest way to look at it, (i think?) ... Percocet has tylenol in it, however, oxycodone and oxycontin are just straight percocet, no tylenol. I believe that oxycodone is the generic name for Roxicodone, which is also obviously percocet without the tylenol. Oxycontin and oxycodone are the same thing, EXCEPT oxycodone is a quick release tablet, and oxycontin is a slow release of the same med. Hydrocodone is the ingredient in Vicodin and Lortab.
Avatar f tn Hi there. I took an overdose once and had my stomach pumped. But you're awake now so that part I'm unsure about. What's important now is to make sure you don't repeat this behavior. Do you know why you did this? Do you want someone to talk with? You may also private message me. Ok?
3149845 tn?1506627771 Usually no more than 2000 mg per day Tylenol, whose active ingredient is acetaminophen, will now have a lower recommended daily dose, which is aimed at reducing the risk of accidental overdose, McNeil Consumer Healthcare, a Johnson & Johnson company announced today. The recommended daily maximum for Extra Strength Tylenol 500mg tablets will go down from 8 per day to 6 per day, i.e. from 4,000mg per day to 3,000mg per day.
610505 tn?1329603723 haha. yes I know. It wont work. Suboxone forces its way into the opiate receptors and the antagonist will bind in such a way as to push and keep out other opiates.
Avatar f tn So i had emergency surgery the other night about a week ago. My placenta was smushing and collapsing my urethra tubes. For the unbearable pain my surgen has prescribed me hydrocodone. Every 4-6 hours as needed. Im a little worried. When i was pregnant with my first daughter they gave me Percocet. Which scared me tk but they said its ont of the safest "narcotics" to take during pregnancy. Has anyone else had to take pain meds during pregnancy? Any bad out comes?
Avatar f tn Don't do anything like that without talking to a doctor! I've never heard of anyone using that for the reason you're talking about. The percocet could very well be dragging the WD out. I would give the doctor a call, and see what they say to do. Maybe there is something else going on. It's hard to say. Fentanyl is a bugger to get off of. I've done it. NOT fun but it didn't last as long as you are talking about. I'd give the doc a call in the morning.
Avatar m tn Prince’s plane made an emergency landing several days before his death in Moline, Ill., because he was suffering from a Percocet overdose, the official said. Once on the ground, Prince was given Narcan, an antidote for opioid overdose, to revive him, the official said.
Avatar f tn I think you want to know more about the drug you are abusing. Percocet is one of the brand names of the drug oxycodone when it is combined with acetaminophen. Oxycodone is semi-synthetic and was created in the mid 20th century to improve upon other opioids such as morphine or codeine. Although the chemical composition of oxycodone is almost identical to heroin, oxycodone abuse often lacks the strong taboos and negative reputation of heroin.
Avatar n tn I don't know if this is the right place to post this question, but here goes. My brother died from drug overdose on 2/16/09. Autopsy was performed & I just got word that the cause of death has been determined. Acute combined intoxication of alprazolam w/oxycodone. Alprazolam found in his system was 0.46 mcg & oxycodone was 0.19 mcg. He was taking Xanax for anxiety disorder, but had no script for oxycodone.
Avatar f tn My boyfriend of 7 years has been recreationally abusing percocet for some time now. We have a 5 year old son together. He knows that I have never been ok with him using them for recriational purposes and I have made that VERY clear to him several times. We have actually separtated for almost a year because he was not willing to kick the "bad influences" or abusing the drug. He made me out to be the crazy psycho girlfriend because I was never ok with it.
Avatar m tn I admit my own naivity on the subject, so I leave it to one of you to help understand. I have come in contact with Percocet, which contains 2.5MG of Oxy, but then I also see an 80mg Oxy tablet on the market. Is the 80mg a time released version? Can you cut the pill four ways to instead have 4 20mg doses? Can anyone send me to a decent place to learn about Oxy doses?
Avatar n tn Tomorrow will be my first day without taking percocet. I am so very scared. My doctor knows what is going on and that I am trying to come off. Tapering just was not an option for me - I am not good at it and there is just too much temptation. No one else knows about this. I have 2 little ones and wonder if I should tell my husband? He is unfortunately laid off right now so he can help with the kids. I plan to basically work from home for the next few days.
1158557 tn?1262725929 m coming off of Vicoprofen and Percocet, this is day one all over again for me. Here is some info on Crave Control, I honestly believe they were worth the money and I'll keep you guys posted on how I feel. (Notice a lot of these ingrediants are also in the Thomas Recipe) 240 pill bottle $39.
Avatar f tn I ahve taken 10/325 percocet for years and recently my doctor has put me on fentanyl patches. She told me to try 1 25mg and if no help then apply 2 to total 50mg. I am wondering if I will suffer withdrawls from the change? Iknow it takes a while for the patches to get into your system, will I suffer w/d symptoms during this time?
Avatar f tn I saw urgent care because I had to make sure I didn't overdose from the tylonol. they told mr to taper off of them but I had flushed them because i'm just not strong enough to take just one every 10 hours like they said. But they made me feel like a junkie by the attitude and the lack of information, like they just wanted me out of their office, which I deserve, i guess, That Reaction was the exact reason I was so scared to go to the doctor to begin with.
Avatar f tn Am I a candidate for suboxone if I take ten percocet tens a day and use coricidin on a regular basis?
