I take Percocet and Flexeril and was told by the doctor to wait a couple of hours before I take one or the other. What are the possible side effects, positive and negative?

Dr jenn I agree with , I'm no doctor but I am pretty smart when it comes to medication only because I bother to read about what was prescribed to me and learn what they are and so on. I'm 36 years old and learned a lot simply by educating myself and mixing drugs can be very dangerous. Everyone's body tolerates med different and depends on their medical history and age. Elderly people for example don't do well on some meds for multiply reason, you should know your body what conditions you have, and always ask a pharmacist or doctor concerning meds.

Hey guys, I have a herniated disc pinching a nerve and was prescribed flexirel and oxycodene to be taken together by the orthopedic surgeon. I've had no side effects but I can now walk, sit and sleep which I couldn't do before. However the cocktail is for a short period of time. When it comes to your health always speak to your doctor because they have your records and know your medical history.

I've been on Trazadone for twenty years.I'm on a lower dose now which is 200 mgs.I take Percocet only when I need it with my Trazadone.However with my experience I do not take Percocet with Trazadone every night.I usually take clonazepam .05mg with Trazadone at night to sleep.I never take all three together.They are all central nervous system depressants.I was taking 500 mg of Trazadone alone and fell twice the next morning in the shower I passed out and was nauseous.Everyone handles meds differently, just be careful.

Helping people in WHAT professional capacity? I'm a MD psychiatrist (with six sub-specialitirs)mad a PhD in Psychopharmacology/ I've published or contributed to articles published in first-tier publications. I was fortunate enough to be "bequeathed" (quotations because my mentor has not shuffled off the Mortals Coil) a practice that brings in 100K in a bad year and I have a full-time position as Director of Psychiatric Training, Residencies and Fellowships a major hospital. It's tiring, but I also to volunteer my services and terrorize the OB-GYN and IM Residents into volunteering their time [if they want to see a kick-ass later of recommendation with my name on the bottom.] I always have believe that "top whom much is given, much is expected." Your posts suggest Disordered Thinking. They don't give degrees for "stupid" at Yale or at NYU. Don't hand me that "voice recognition crap". If it doesn't work, don't use it.

I just wanted to answer the trivia question. Ultram is tramadol and its an opioid because its synthetic. Not directly derived from opium, like an opiate. It also releases serotonin, which is what would make it similar to an anti-depressant. I'm an emergency vet tech ((15yrs)), not an RN. Someone smart is reading this thread ;-)

I would not want my RN taking care of me and handing out meds to be on a cocktail that you described. I really hope rehab works when all your "Rx" run out.

I have been taking percocet and muscle relaxers for 2 years now due to neck, back, knee injuries and severe pain throughout each day.. I Have had them changed a few times on the muscle relaxers due to one reason or another.but i am currently taking tizanadine .. As prescribed by my doctor.. And when i picked it up at my pharmacy the pharmacist told me because i was also on a pain med to make sure that you have at least 2 hours between them.because of the fact that it can cause respiratory depression.. So my take on this is that if you have any questions about the medications you are on ask your doctor.. That's what he is there for.. If you have any concerns ask your doctor.. Plain and simple.. Don't go mixing pills unless your doctor has prescribed them to take together, and if you have any issues or questions by doing so speak to your doctor..

Im so sorry to hear about all of your problems i was a wrecker operator and was hit in by a semi going 80mph i was sitting still and have had 6 surgeries on my lower back and my reason for me telling y'all this is simple i am only 35yo and it has ruined my life in more ways than many can imagine can no longer play with my 2 beautiful young daughters it cost me a divorce after 11 years of marriage and this accident was only 5 years ago the bad part is that i became addicted to pain meds not only to deal with the physical pain but also the mental pain now whether y'all decide to listen to what i am saying or not is totally up to u but only stay on the meds for as little time as possible and i know exactly what u mean because i sometimes wish i hadn't survived also (no not suisidle) keep ur head up i hear it gets better (idk we will see)

Re: ARNP (# 5) 
So you're a ARNP? First, there is no such thing, it's APRN. 2nd, you can take them together. Millions of people do daily and live just fine.
