oxycontin

Avatar n tn Hey-- I sm on day 3 of stopping cold turkey with 30 mg roxicet. I was a recreational user for about 4 months after I had been in the hospital for kidney pain and was recieving dialudid every 4 hours through IV for almost 2 weeks. For the past 2 months I have been snorting about 7 a day. Today is my third day off of it. And I'm reading so much about it and I really am only experiencing the shakes, hot and cold sweats and dirreah just started today however I feel okay.
1214626 tn?1288106214 ROXIES is a slang name for Roxicet. Roxicet is the generic name for Percocet. (oxycodone + tylonol.) Very potent, highly addictive but very effective schedule 2 narcotic. Illegal to have without a prescription. As to why it is being snorted, snorting is a way addicts use certain drugs as a quicker way to achieve a high than ingesting. Opiates give a feeling of greatness and euphoria that nothing can explain. The reason people pay so much for them is in short one of the more potent pain killers.
Avatar n tn Wow as I read your post I had shivers go down my spine. Marry me but only if I can have my Coke? Sweetie you need to run as fast as you possibly can and now!! Listen I understand that you love this man and I'm sure you want to believe that your love can heal him or make him change but it WON'T happen. I'm a drug addict and let me explain how this works. When I was using I would do whatever it took in order to get my drug.
Avatar m tn Otherwise all drugs are krap to me, recreational use? What is that????????? I often thought I could use recreationally, trust me I was wrong. When in doubt, go without!!
445312 tn?1205376479 roxicet is percocet, roxicodone is oxycodone. Roxicet and Roxicodone are slang so the person at the clinic may never have heard of it. Keep posting daily and we will all help you get through this. I was feeling great 2 days into stopping the vicodin I thought I could quit smoking too, not a good idea, I caved on that after 2 days. I said let me take care of 1 addiction at a time.
683319 tn?1226909213 my boyfriend of 2 years just told me 2 days ago that he has been addicted to roxicet for the passed 3 years. He says he wants to stop because he knows all the consequences and he doesnt want to live like that anymore. He does, however think that he can kick this addiction without seeking professional help...can he? he also smokes marijuana because he says it helps calm him down during withdrawal; should he stop smoking too?

Avatar f tn So I have been on oxycodone and roxicet ( not at the same time, the dr will write it for one or the other) Both meds are 5-325 strength. It seems like everytime I get a script for the roxicet I end up getting very sick to my stomach and vomiting. I am taking the medication as prescribed. I know the two medicines are basically the samething so my question is, why is one medication making me sick to my stomach while the other one does not?
Avatar n tn I've been on doctor prescribed Roxicet (5/325) for the last 4 years due to neck and shoulder pain. I had gotten to the point where I was taking 2 pills every 4-6 hours. Due to some long hard work with physical therapy I was beginning to feel like I could start going off the Rox. Then on Monday I got a "bug". I threw up for 2 days. Since I wasn't able to hold anything down I didn't take my meds.
Avatar n tn I'm on day 4 of a Roxicet taper and having a terrible time sleeping. I just can't lie still in the bed. My doctor had prescribed me Soma for muscle spasm which I had been taking 1 each night before bedtime. Its a great relaxant but I cut them out too (completely) when I started tapering off the Roxicet. Would it be ok to take one at bedtime to help with the sleeplessness or am I backsliding? Is a muscle relaxer considered as bad as a narcodic?
Avatar f tn Does oxycontin as recreational use exhibit symptoms of indifference and apathy and unconcern over everyday obligations and responsibilities which prior to use were contradictory to the persons character. In other words a complete change of personally untecogisable by loved ones?
Avatar n tn To joke about some one considering taking cocaine for recreational use who has had three bypass surgeries and is taking blood thinners is just a little reckless. Takes all kinds I guess........................
203003 tn?1210855907 anybody know about Roxicet? its 5mg, i already posted but It got deleted bc I said something I shouldnt have =( but I am supposed to get those, well she said they were percocet without any tylenol in it, whatever. Is the name for Percocet with no tylenol...ROXICET? never taken it just need something to ween off of..and thats my only option i would go cold turkey but my fam things im clean and if they see me all sleeping n sick n moody they will know...
Avatar n tn NOT FOR LONG...YOU MAY START OUT ONLY ON WEEKEND BUT IT WILL escalate. i used coke for 5 years heavily and i started out only on the weekends. before long it was everyday all day and every night all night. it is a horrible drug the eventually completely robs you of yourself.
Avatar m tn I have been around drugs for years, and even had a substance abuse problem of my own, which have sucessfully overcome. Opiates were never my drug of choice. The lethargy and the nausea really weren't things that appealed to me. But I am awfully curious to see if my boyfriend is... We have been dating for two years now. Before this onset, I was aware that my boyfriend was snorting Roxicet for recreational drug-use, "Blues" we call them.
Avatar f tn I am, or should I say was, a recreational drug user. In the last two months I smoked pot regularly and took approx. 3 vicodin 10mg and 1 percocet 10mg to help with back pain from a car accident. I don't regularly use pain meds and am far from addicted, I am just so worried that those couple pills hurt my little one. :( help!
Avatar m tn I have been taking Roxicet for 7 years and need to come off now for work. I take about 5 a day and found that i cant ween with roxicets. I want to ween with suboxones so i picked up ten of them. I understand i will have so rough days but how would you taper with this many? I can get more subs but would like to see if i can do it with this amount. Do i suck on these or eat them? Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated.
217599 tn?1202850952 i have been tapering off norco, slowly for family reasons, and ran out before the taper was complete. i have 4 roxicet given to me, and want to know how small to break them up to equal 1/4 norco. i need to do this to get through the weekend as i need to drive in the city and cznnot have any more nights of zero sleep. i know driving in the city is nothing to a lot of you, but i am a country girl, and need my wits about me.
1594189 tn?1297218314 m thinking about putting to use. Is it okay to only take half a strip? Is this a regular practice?
1029192 tn?1292981918 So, I finally decided to see my general practitioner today because I just couldn't wait until Tuesday to see my specialist. I really needed to get it off my chest, how I've been feeling...so, I was lucky enough to get an appointment this morning. Mind you, there are, like 20 doctors in this group, and the one I managed to get just happened to be a co-worker's father...anyway...
Avatar n tn s either a Roxicet 30mg or an Oxycontin 30mg. The Roxicet is an immediate release of the whole 30mg of oxycodone and the Oxycontin, if swallowed whole, is a timed release version of 30mg of oxycodone. Secondly, telling a doctor that you have an opiate addiction does not mean you won't be treated for pain. If the doctor is a good doctor, then it just means that they are more cautious with treating your pain. That's why addictionologists are great alternatives for us addicts.
Avatar f tn My son who is in a drug court program is drug tested every thursday. It's always a urine test but was given a saliva test a few weeks ago and it showed a trace of oxycodone. He has been clean over 500 days and is adamant about it being a mistake. He had a hair follicle test performed but the court won't accept it because it supposedly only shows chronic use, not a one time use.
