What is equal in mgs? I have been prescribed a 60 mg. of OxyCotin ER. Now the dr. is suggesting I use 30 mgs. of Morphine Sul ER. Can you give me the mgs. that equals the 60 mg.OxyCotin ER . What would the mg. difference be to get the same pain relieving results? It's not the dr.; it's the drug plan I have that is now demanding this be changed. Awaiting your comments! Eva ## Hello, Eva! How are you? Oxycodone is one and a half times stronger than Morphine, so you'd actually need 90mgs of the Morphine to equal the same analgesic effect of 60mgs of Oxycontin. 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. Is there anything else I can help with? ## is there ...

I found a white pill with crescent moon on one side and 270 on the other in my teenage cousins room can anyone tell me what this is I can't pull it up on the net anywhere ## Hi turtle, Based on the description provided, I found a white round pill with 270 on one side and a half moon logo on the other to be a 15mg Morphine sulfate ER tablet. This medication is used for moderate to severe (chronic) pain. For verification, the pill itself is made by Actavis and carries a National Drug Code of 0228-4270-11 I hope this helps! ## So a pill with a crescent moon and 270 on one side IS morphine?? ## Are you completely sure that it is 15mg morphine? ## If the letter R is above the crescent and on the other side, the A and 270 are separated by a line, then it is Furusemide, a common water tabl...

for the last 7 years I have been on Norco 10's got to the point I was taking 12 to 15 a day, it got to the point that they stopped working for me so my dr. put me on morphine er 15mg 3x a day with 30mg instant release 4x a day im new to morphine but have a very high tolerance to opiots, im just wondering if I made a good switch. I remember when the Norco made me feel great but I have yet to take two 30mg i.r. at once to see if that was a pleasant feeling, anyone have some helpful advice in this area? thanks ## Hello, Charles! How are you? The reason you aren't getting that same effect from the Morphine is because it's time released. The Norco was released all at once within 15 to 20 minutes of taking it, but the Morphine is slowly released into your body over a period of abo...

Is oxymorphone 15mg comparable in strength to morphine 30 mg? ## Hello, Bart! How are you? Actually, the 15mgs of Oxymorphone is stronger, it is actually equal to 45mgs of Morphine. 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, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I have been taking 10mg. Oxymorphone E.R. 2 x daily for a few years now.

I live in the state of Tennessee and wondering if anyone else is encountering this problem. It just seems like the DEA or CDC i...

Im in a lot of pain. I have norco 5-325 that was giving to me from one doctor. Now another doctor wants me in morphine 15mg er. It took forever to get the morphine today so i took the norco to calm some pain down. Is it safe to take the morphine now that it has been 2 hours after taking the norco? ## It should be, as long as your doctor approves, but you may experience more intense side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness and dry mouth. This medication also carries the risk of being habit forming. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Wait 8 to 20 hours. If you want the full effect it's 30 hours.

I've been taking 240mg of morphine per day for many years. I took one suboxone strip monday then went back to the morphine. Will the suboxone strip show on a urine screen on wednesday along with the morphine? Or should I be ok? ## What was the dosage of the Suboxone? How long it is detectable can depend on the dosage, how long you were taking it, and your own metabolism, according to NIH studies. How did your test turn out? 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. ## If I took a Suboxone script a week ago.am I clear for a hair ,salvia,and urine test????

Have had a Morphine Sulfate 30mg Rx from my Doc in Orlando since moving to Sarasota / Lakewood Ranch area Jan 30. NO CVS, NO Walmart has had this med.
