I need to know what they put in this medication that has my U/A coming up positive for morphine and oxycodone. I dont understand because I dont take these two drugs. I asked a pharmacist and was told its against the law for her to answer the question and that sounds like the worst lie I ever heard. My job knows that I take the medication but with these other two drugs coming up my job is at stake and I need answers. I love me and there's no way in hell I would take three different narcotics. I dont have a cell so I'm using my co-workers phone, so can someone help me get to the bottom of this ASAP? Please someone. Another thing, what is the other 5mg because it says 50/5mg. Does it mean it has acetaminophen in it also like the lortabs? ## Hello, Tammy! How are you? It is most lik...

How long should hydrocodone liquid last 7.5-325/15 90ml? Taken every 4-6 hours at 5 mls. ## Hello, Kendra! How are you? If you are only taking 5mls, then 90mls should last for 18 doses, which if taken every 4 hours would be 3 days and 4.5 days if taken every 6 hours, but you should be aware that from what you've listed the full dose is in 15mls, not 5mls. In that case, if you were taking 15ml, it would be just 6 doses. As to how long it should last, going by days, that depends on how it's been prescribed, if it's on an 'as needed' basis, then the prescribing doctor may expect it to last longer than those time frames. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizz...

I have been taking hydrocodone 10/325 4 times daily for post surgery pain for 2 weeks. My dr recently switched me to 50 mg tramadol because he wasn't in the office to write me a script. Will the tramadol be just as effective? I just took 3 50 mg tramadol to start off with. ## Hello, Dustin! How are you? The data varies and states that it takes 50 to 100mgs of Tramadol to be equal to each 10mgs of Hydrocodone. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. How much did you doctor advise you to take?

white 503 ## Watson 503 contains Acetaminophen 650mgs and Hydrocodone 10mgs, this is a generic for Lorcet, a potent narcotic pain reliever. ## They don't make them like they use to cuz Watson is a sell out and now Watsons pills suck. The colored ones r better. ## If pain pills are addictive so what. If a person is in so much pain like myself they will be taking them the rest of their lives anyway. I was taking 200 mlg of morphine twice a day plus oxy 30's eight times a day and the quality of my life was never better

I have ALLERGY to codeine all I want to know is Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen 5-325 TB have codeine in this yes or no plkeasae ## Hello, Shirley! How are you? No, the active ingredients are exactly what you listed, Hydrocodone with Acetaminophen. According to the FDA, this is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. There is a slight chance that you could also have an allergic reaction to another narcotic, but there's no way to know other than trying it. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Yes hydrocodone has codeine in it, if you're allergic to codeine I would refrain from using this opiate ## shirley schaschl, it is always best to discuss drug allergies wi...

The pill is capsule form with absolutely no imprint. Half dark brown and half tan/light brownish in color. (I don't know my in between colors but I'd say tan is the best description for one half but it looks a little too light greyish to be tan. Anyways my friend gave me a few and said it was hydrocodone 15mg.. I tried one and it is definitely stronger than the norco 10's which I was prescribed after knee surgery. It seems too strong to be hydro 15mg and I've never heard of such a thing. Has anyone seen these before? I don't want to take these i they're oxy's or morphine... ## Hello, Jed! How are you? If it is a capsule, then there is a chance that it might have been something specially ordered by someone's doctor and made just for them by a compounding p...

After walking down a stretch of county hwy at the age of 14 , out of nowhere an old hull size ran truck hits me , throws me so many yards, finally landing on top of me, after being presumed dead. I was revived multiple times. i was told i would be brain dead, id never walk. It would be pure miracle if i were to even live. I've been on many pain medications in the past , but come to a point that i would try to deal with the pain cold turkey, big mistake.. Hydrocodone doesn't help nor does the 100's of over the counter medications I've tried. Being hospitalized and developing seizures over time because of scar tissue a monitor left on my brain, i still continue to break and fracture my back during seizure activity.

I was in a bad accident back in March of 2012, I was on a snow machine ( mobile for who call it that) and was hit by a large SUV. I had a shattered pelvis, broken hip and broken femur. I've found that the qualitest 5/325 white pills with red specks work best for me compared to other brands, but of late I've had to take more to feel a relief. I'm wondering if they make the same type just stronger. I don't know if it's the red specks they use in them that makes it different with others. I also just moved and am worried my new state won't have that brand even if I can't get a raised dose with my next doctor. I hate taking so many, wish I didn't have to take them at all to be honest. I have tried to go my normal route and stop taking them to lower my need for...

I have been prescribe d hydrocodone sand Iim about out can I take percocets and pass a 10 panel drug screen with my prescription ## Yes, they are different. Percocet contains OXY, hydrocodone contains OPI, They are both included in the 10 panel test. However, false positives are common. To be sure, a blood test is best.

is this med suppost to be pink ?? ## There are some that are pink, some that are white, some that are yellow…. I think you get where I'm going with this, the color is totally up to the whit and whim of the manufacturer. What are the markings on them? If you want to make sure that they contain Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen, I can check for you, if you post back with the markings on them.

I found a white oval pill imprint 2127, can't find any info on the web after plenty searches and alot of resources... Please help, I am wondering if this is a pain medication? ## The pill you're describing reportedly contains 5mgs of Hydrocodone Bitartrate + 325mgs of Acetaminophen made by Actavis. The reason why there aren't many listings yet here on the internet is because it's relatively new to the market. I'm not exactly certain about its exact release date, but some of my research suggest that it's only been out since May 2016. Here is the full scoop (along with its National Drug Code of 0591-2172): dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/drugInfo.cfm?setid=6da96f18-c056-45c2-a1c8-f86484e69d08 I hope this helps!

Need to know - is this hydrocodone? Just came from drug store and this is what I got. Have never seen one like this before. ## I am also in the same confusion whereas I have received the same pill white oval pill imprint 2127, sorry I cant help but it would be great if someone would ..lol..somebody plz help , my cat is curios af !! ## @Carlo & Hydrizzlecone, What you guys have there is actually a new version of generic hydrocodone 5mg + acetaminophen 325mg (made by Actavis). It is the real deal, however I've recently read some complaints here about it not being nearly as effective as other brands. I say, 'to each their own in' that regard, since everyone responds differently... But I hope this helps add some clarity to the confusion. Also for verification, the pill itsel...

I've been approximately 10 years on hydrocodone acetaminophen 10-500. It now has been changed to Hydrocodone-acetaminophen 10-325 without any consultation. What would be the reason for the change and will it attack the pain the same? Thank you. Todd ## All prescription tylenol combinations medications had to reduce the amount of tylenol to no more than 325 mg in Jan 2014. The FDA has even taken action to withdraw the approval for prescription meds that have more than 325 mg tylenol. The decrease in tylenol may or may not make any difference to you. Some drs are telling their patients to add 1 regular strength tylenol to the prescription meds, if they need it. Just be sure to keep track of how much tylenol you take in a 24 hrs period and don't let it exceed 4,000 mg in a 24 hr pe...

I have taken both and let me say that there is nothing different in the white Watson's vs the yellow ones except the yellow dye. Its all in your head if u think that they wont work as well they wont and they are FDA regulated so believe me the people calling there pharmacy saying they dont work are looking like drug users. ## I had both yellow and white 853's, asked the wife not to tell me which one......after two days outside of a lucky guess which was which.....never could tell difference. Keep in mind hydro looses effectiveness quickly - old ones don't work that well.... ## Do they pay you people to come on these boards? Really?

When I take the yellow Norco 10-325, I usually wait about 30 minutes till they take affect and most often feel somewhat energized and a bit more relaxed. When I take the P110 10-325 hydrocodone, I feel lethargic and often drowsy and sad. Why is there such a difference? ## Well, there can be some fluctuation in the amount of the active ingredients when go from a name brand, such as Norco, to a generic, like the one with the IP 110 marking. Hydrocodone is a narcotic and you may actually be getting a little more of it in the generic one, so that may be why you feel more lethargic and drowsy when you take it. Learn more Norco details here. If it's that problematic, you could try asking your doctor to prescribe it as brand medically necessary, to avoid the problem. Are there any other qu...

I've been on 10/325 for a year now. It was working very good at first. I have fibromyalja, lower back pain L4, L5, and S1 and now I have pain from my buttocks all the down (r) leg to my foot. ## Hello, Mary! How are you? I am sorry that you're in pain. What medication are you taking? Hydrocodone with Acetaminophen, or Oxycodone with Acetaminophen? You didn't specify. The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. You may need to try a different medication. Have you informed your doctor of the problem?

I have taken 2-3 hydrocodone a day for 3 years. I have a ua tomorrow and I haven't used in 30 hrs and have drank 101.4 oz of water and 60oz of Gatorade will I pass ua? ## I'll say good luck. I would think, I don't know as I haven't worked in 6 years and I never had the kind of job that required drug testing, but it can take 2 to for days for it to not be noticed by a urine analysis. Sorry. Were you taking them legitimately? Do you have a doctor who will verify that you are under his care? It can't hurt to pass that along to the prospective management, but alas, so many hear the word and they understand how functional a person can be, if taking the recommended dose. Unless you'll be flying for a commercial airline. Just let me know what airline it is. Just given y...

I am a NC resident. I grew up in LA where my dad still lives. On a recent trip to visit him he had to go to the ER and stayed in the hospital 6 days. My stay in LA has lasted an additional 6 weeks. My Dr sent me with a typed prescription which was filled with no problem. Bc I had to stay an additional 3 weeks NY Dr described my prescription. Now they will only fill it for a 10 day supply. Fortunately, I will be back in NC so I will not run out but my question is what am I supposed to do on my next trip? And God forbid I get here and something happens With my dad and I am stuck here again longer than my anticipated stay. I have never lost a prescription or had a drug problem.
