Found a white pill that is blank on one side. Oblong like a bean. I 7 on other side. ## This tablet is manufactured by Granules Limited India and they list it as containing 600mgs of Ibuprofen. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Ifijusttook two 200mg Advil’s can I take an I7 pill and hour later or is it harmful ## DON’T!!! Those are both ibuprofen, max daily dose is 2400mg. Suggested dose is 600 every 6-8 hours. The Advil (200mg each) are a quick release type and should not be mixed with generic longer release 600s or 800s. If you are in a lot of pain you can safely alternate Tylenol (acetaminophen) every 4 hours with ibuprofen...

i have been taking 50mg of hyrdocodone per day for the last 6 months and it is not working for the pain anymore. I have ankolying spondylitus. My Dr has put me on 15mg morphine extended release 2x per day. I took 15mg about 3 hours ago and so far not relief. My questions is will this work for me as I was taking 50mg of hyrocodone per day. ## How are you doing, now? Has there been any change? The ER Morphine is released slowly, over a period of 12 hours, it is not released all at once, like the Hydrocodone was, so you will not feel the same effect. There is also a change that this dosage isn't high enough for you. Have you informed your doctor of the issue? Though, it is usually best to give it a week, or so, to see if things improve. The FDA warns that these medications carry the ri...

Meaning I cannot get an answer to this after much research over the years here and there. It’s always the same questions, what’s better, what’s more powerful (which is Oxy of course) or what is the difference between the two. My question is this. Does Hydro hit DIFFERENT receptors then Oxy and vice versa? If Oxy is more powerful, then “assuming” it fills receptors that Hydro does not?? So would taking an Percocet AND a Norco at once not be perfect, to say hitting ALL the receptors? Thanks :) ## Opiate receptors are opiate receptors, so they all work on the same ones, if you read up on the NIH research, some opiates are stronger than others, and some work better for some people than they do for other people. So, while they are sometimes combined to help get ...

I found a pill and need to know what it is. Does a opioid 30 mg have 324 on it? ## Hi Chicky, After doing a lot of digging on the internet, I couldn't locate an exact match to your pill. Pretty much all of the closely related descriptions and images I saw were of oblong or capsule shaped pills. The lack of available information leads me to believe that your pill falls into either one of the following categories: discontinued, Illicit, over-the-counter, or of foreign origin. Is it something that could've been brought back from overseas? ## Warfarin 3mg is blue with same number on the front

White oblong oval pill with marking 93-430 on one side and blank on the other; I think it is possibly a generic for Vicodin ## No, this is manufactured by Teva Pharmaceuticals, they are the ones that use the 93 imprint, though they are phasing it out and they don't have any products on the market, at this time, that contain Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone. I also can't find anything listed in their U.S. product catalog that has the number 430 on it, I also tried other variations. Was it found in the U.S. or elsewhere? The 93 denotes it as prescription product manufactured by them, but I suspect that it may be a foreign import, or perhaps an older discontinued tablet. ## It's a proxy tablet from back in the day around 2000-2005. ## A white oblong (capsule-shaped) pill marked 93...

Kratom is the answer to all your dreams. I've successfully detoxed off 105mgs and had no sickness. Research this plant. Extensively! It's saved my life! ## Congratulations on tapering off the opiates! That's no small feat by any means. It's also pretty amazing that you didn't experience any sickness in the process due to the help of Kratom. According to the US National Institute of Health, Kratom isn't well understood in Western medicine; however Kratom's alkaloids reportedly play a big role in augmenting its effectiveness at mitigating opiate withdrawal symptoms. You can read more about that in the link below: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3670991 Kratom's popularity has certainly gained a lot of traction over the past couple years in America, and I t...

What are the long term effects of the brain and mood changes in people taking 30mg of oxycodone for years? Do they act with no emotion or feelings? ## Hello, Brenda! How are you? It is possible, opiates are known to cause depression of the central nervous system, so the can cause such issues as side effects, in some people that take them. The FDA also warns that they carry the risk of being habit forming, and may cause other side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Has the person in question exhibited any more symptoms? ## Yes they are deadly! They work just talk to your doc ## Hi I've been on Oxy for 4 years now and get it prescribed for chronic pain in lower back.

I took a half of perocet over and hour later wasnt thinking and took two tsps of codeine based cough med. My head feels weird. Should i be sure not to fall asleep? Im worried ## Hello, Kate! How are you? Did you experience any adverse effects? I doubt that was enough to be dangerous, but you can never really know how it may affect any given person. 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. ## Can I take a 30 mg Codeine instead of a 5 mg Percocet? Will that be the same or stronger?

This is 30mg of codeine hcl, no Tylenol in it. These are hard to get unless you have a liver problem. There very addictive. ## Codeine is a narcotic pain reliever and, as such, it has a much of a danger of addiction as any other narcotic. I also wouldn't say they are necessarily harder to get, because they can also be prescribed by some doctors to prevent a liver problem in people that may not have one, but are at risk for it. Are there any questions or comments? ## I have a 30 mg codeine but I’m only used to taking 1 Percocet or 1 Vicodin 7.5mg. Is this pill stronger than one of them?

I need to know if oxycodone comes with this on it . I've never seen it before. It is blue small round pill with imprint M, and on the other side it has 031. ## No, I don't think you have Oxycodone. It seems likely that you have a round blue pill with the inscription M C31 (instead of 031): This pill is manufactured by Mylan Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 3.125mgs of Carvedilol, which is used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions.

I have chronic pain need a new doctor who will write my prescriptions . ## Hello, Alfred! How are you? I'm sorry that you're in pain. However, there is no guarantee that any doctor will or will not write your prescriptions for you. The only thing you can really do is see a pain management specialist, make sure they receive a full copy of your current medical records and then discuss your treatment options. But, if you ask them to prescribe specific medications, they will most likely view that as being drug seeking behavior and won't write them. It's best to let your medical records speak for you. Do you currently have a PCP that might be able to refer you to someone? Can anyone recommend a good doctor in that area? ## Does anyone know of any Drs in the PA area who write ...

I have been on the generic oxymorhpone for years and never had a problem getting it where I am from. However now that I am in New York City pharmacies say that they are unable to order it. It's always hard to tell if they legitimately cannot order it or they just don't want to deal with another pain patient. Can anyone recommend pharmacies to me? Brooklyn or Manhattan preferred. ## Helly Bkh, I don't live in NYC so I won't be able to give you a list of specific pharmacies but I can give you some tips on how to handle this situation. It always saves a lot of time to call the pharmacies instead of going to the physical location, more often than not they will tell you over the phone if they carry the brand you're looking for and if not if they have policies in place to ...

THE NEW OXYCONTIN DOES NOT WORK, IT IS MAKING PEOPLE SICKER THAN THEY WERE TO START WITH AND WE ARE BACK WHERE WE STARTED. I CAN NOT EVEN PLAY OR HOLD MY 6 GRANDCHILDREN. PEOPLE SUE OVER DRUGS, WE NEED AN ATTORNEY FOR THEM CHANGING A DRUG THAT DOES WORK.

Is this OK to use for serviear headache/migraine? ## I don't remember why this was prescribed to me as I have multiple medical problems & get bad headaches I read something saying this was for pain? But headaches I don't no? Thanks in advance ## Hi dracey, Sorry to hear about the terrible headaches. However I do want to clarify that "IP 190 500" represents the markings of a 500mg Naproxen tablet, and "NOT" Hydrocodone as you may have originally thought. Naproxen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, but it is also a commonly used remedy for treating migraine headaches. I don't know how its overall efficacy compares to other possible treatment options, however, many patients do report that it works well for such conditions. More specific details invol...

white oval ## I had a toohache when I was in Mexico and this is what the Fharmica people gave me. ## There is a white oval with WATSON 853 on it, so I am wondering if that was what they received and were asking about? I'd love if someone posted back and let me know. The WATSON 853 tablet contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, the active ingredients in Vicodin, which is a narcotic pain reliever. As such, it may be habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness and constipation. You can learn more Vicodin details here. The only pill with a 512 marking that I'm aware of is round, white, with a score line on the opposite side and it contains 5mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, the active ingredients in Percocet. It is...

I came across a yellow, oval pill with watson 353. What is this pill? ## its hydrocodone..750mg.. Similar to a vicodin or norco. ## Joe, not only is your post ridiculous, Hydrocodone does not even come in that high of a dosage. ## Watson 353 This is Pronolol 90mgs, a generic for the Beta-blocker Inderal. ## Yes it does come in that high of a dose. I've been prescribed it several times after surgery. Where are you getting your info? ## First of all hydrocodone does not come in 750 mg. You are thinking of 7.5 mg. There's 5 mg, 7.5 mg and 10 mg. Watson 353 on a yellow pill is hydrocodone/acetaminophen. Hydrocodone being 10 mg. Acetaminophen being 325 mg. Otherwise known as a Norco. These are amazing. High does of hydrocodone and low dose of acetaminophen. 10 mg is the most potent f...

Is there a dilaudid shot that i can get from my drs office? We have tried all painkillers for the chronic pancreatitis i have. I go to the er about every week. If i could get a shot at the dr's office it would eliminate going to the er. 1 mg of dilaudid iv seems to be the only thing that works. I took 4 mg of dilaudid tablets for a long time. Now i have to go to the er. ## Carol, I have found cases in which people were prescribed an oral version of hydromorphone (dilaudid), so at least there is the possibility of you being able to get a prescription for it. You would need to set up an appointment with your primary care physician and see if they agree that this is the best route for you after reviewing your medical history. I would like to add that hydromorphone contains an opioid an...

In 2012 I had a spinal fusion that didn't go well. I'm partially paralyzed on my left side. I've been going to a pain management clinic & they've had me on oxycodone 10mg 4 times a day & OxyContin 10mg 3 times a day. I've never had a pill count that was off & always passed the UA. Suddenly in November I'm 8 short on my OxyContin & my results come back with hydro in my system. We were renting a room to a young woman & she moved to Texas in November btw did you ever notice how much a 10mg white hydro looks like oxycodone? Obviously I got kicked out of the program. I'm in constant pain & they told me to ween myself off the meds. Even if I could ween myself off of meds in a month that I've been on for 3 years, I'm still in pain. Af...
