This is in reference to Amneal Pharmaceutical's "7.5/325" Oxycodone, the label which also reads in part: "*7.5 mg oxycodone HCI, USP is equivalent to 6.7228 mg of oxycodone" without explaining what that means. CVS switched my brand last month and claim that all brands are the same strength. NOT SO, according to the level of pain and everyone who is in pain knows that pain does no lie. Having a website where people can rant about their product to one another is an old trick perfected by Apple, Google, and Microsoft to make us think that somehow they're part of the conversation. Do not take no for an answer in telling your doctor, pharmacist, and insurance that you insist on something that works and is in fact the strength that your doctor prescribed! ## Generics c...

Is Voydol-C (Ketorolac + Tramadol) still available in Mexico? If so, does it require a prescription? ## Yes it is, just got some today and I didn't need a prescription. ## What is the difference between the tramadol pills? Like what is the difference between the one side being yellow and the other side green and some are white? ## If a pill or capsule such as Voydol-C contains two ingredients (e.g. Ketorolac + Tramadol), it is my thinking that each ingredient would be separated and represented on each end of the pill (having their own respected color depicted on the outside of the pill). For example, I've seen this in OTC cold medicine such as Mucinex DM whereas the Guaifenesin + Dextromethorphan are each represented in two separate colors on the front/back of the tablet (yellow...

I got 15 pills which are supposed to be 30 mg Oxycodone. I have always filled my Rx in the USA. I need to know a few more details. The pill is a yellow rounded shape with only one imprint which is a triangle shape. Another person mentioned they are manufactured in the Dominican Republic. I want to make sure the pills are correct, work well, and that I'm not putting myself in danger. If someone could pease send more information to me, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much, Margaret ## Hey Maggie ever find out if these where in fact oxy 40 I ran into a few of these an cannot find anything about them. ## I would speculate that these aren't legitimate USA prescription drugs since the FDA requires an identifiable imprint (lawfully containing a set of numbers and/or letters - ...

I too am a chronic pain patient seeing a pain management dr. After hearing the news today of what Ohio's governor is now requiring of that states opioid taking patients & drs. it makes me really anxious about what our governor in WI will do. Looking ahead, incase situations become worse, I am curious to know if anyone has tried CBD oil or pills? I am considering the pill form, I just need to find the proper dosage. If anyone has any info I would appreciate the feedback. Thanks! ## I went to see my PM Doctor last week, he told me to go have some marijuana!!! I live in RI, medical MJ is legal, Mass recreational MJ is legal. I tried Vaping the Oil..GROSS, even cutting it with my sweetest juice. I did feel something, but nothing close to Klonopin 1mg. So I took 3 hits of Medical MJ....

My doctor has had me on the 100 fentanyl patch for 1 year now. He is going to take me off it. Can you just stop taking it with out side effects or withdrawals. Please tell me the proper way to get off this patch. Please help me, I have the doctor appointment tomorrow and want to know what to say. So far it sounds like his plan is just to take me off cold turkey. I am scared of withdrawals. I am a mom of 5 kids and need to be ok. Please help. ## No, it is not safe to go cold turkey. I have had a doctor tell me that no one has ever died from withdrawal. Fentanyl withdrawal can slow or even stop your breathing. I have been on a 350 mcg dose of fentanyl patcheds every 48 hours for 10+ years. I was in a serious car accident w/ligament & tendon injury, then they thought chronic pain/arthr...

Been prescibed dilaudid last few months as a breakthru med. 4mg 2x day as/if needed. So I haven't taking everyday & somtimes 1/2 of the 4mg. Mainly take ms contin er. How long taking the dilaudid b/4 I go thru withdrawal if I stop taking the dilaudid?? Been on it here & then a few months?? Or taking the ms contin for yrs. Wouldn't that prevent withdrawal ??? Please help!? ## Such a small amount of hydromorphone should not cause a problem as far as withdrawal goes. I would be more concerned about the morphine XR than the D's. ## Bruce is correct, though we are all different, so there is a small risk of your experiencing withdrawal symptoms, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, headache, constipation, and mood changes.

White capsule with no ID imprinted ## small white pill with a yellow L on it ## I have pulled the sciatic nerve in my back and am not sleeping due to back and leg pain. I need a relaxant. What can I take? I'm taking co-codamol 30/500 but it's not doing a lot. I'm so tired. ## Co-Codamol contains Acetaminophen, and Codeine, it is a narcotic pain reliever. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, headache, drowsiness, and constipation. Niki, are there any other markings on the tablet in question? Chris, what has your doctor advised you to take?

My doctor prescribed 15mg morphine with me also taking alprazolam..but he wasn't clear on how far apart I should take them..the morphine is every 12hrs and the alprazolam is 2mg at night. But that runs into the morphine schedule so how long do I wait to take my alprazolam. I cannot sleep without my alprazolam! ## There is really no specific time frame, but taking them together may cause more side effects, such as dizziness, nausea, and drowsiness, according to FDA reports. It is also reported that they both carry the risk of being habit forming. If you feel more comfortable and your doctor approves, it should be okay to change the time you are taking one of them. Are you on any other medications?

What is the timeline for withdrawal from percocet? Many say that it takes a month. Is that true? ## Hello, Rileyrose 1! How are you? It can vary from person to person and will also depend on how long they were taking it, how much they were taking and how often they were taking it. It could actually vary anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks, give or take. The FDA lists the typical withdrawal effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, fever, chills, rebound pain and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hi thanks for the reply I was taking them on and off for nearly 3 years. 10 mg percs 4 to 5 x a day. Just have chills everyday and depression. Went cold turkey 10 days ago. Not going back to it again! Was so much more energized taking them. Wonder when natural energy will come b...

I have to take blood test in 2 weeks. I have to know how long it takes for my Fentanyl 100 mg Patch to get out of my blood stream? I have to take my last one off in 3 days. Is it enough time for it to leave my body and blood system? ## If you have a prescription for the patches, then there is no need to worry, you just need to inform them of this, when you go in for testing. There are only certain exceptions, where someone can be denied the use of these types of medications. However, for a blood test, Fentanyl is usually only detectable for approximately 2 days, after last usage. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Rusty asked how long does fentanyl take to get out of the bloodstream. He/she did not asked if you approved whether or not there was a legit script.

Bad batches are stamped on the edges and the 215 is slightly off center to the right. I'm gonna take a pic side by side, they're COMPLETELY FAKE. The ones that are h are extremely dark in color.

I need to find a test to find if I was, in fact, given Dilaudid 2 shots, Toradol 8mg and Morphine 8mg in the ER via IV injection. Valium 10mg, first, then 2 shots of Dilaudid and Toradol 4 to 8mg all at the same time. One hour later I was given 8mg of Morphine....I only felt the Valium and no relief from the pain. I released myself AMA and the hospital is conducting an Internal Investigation as their records show I was indeed given ALL these medications. They want to know who or where they went as they are all Schedule 3 Narcotics and I have informed them that I had bloodwork done and am having a Hair Test done which I believe shows when and what drugs have been introduced into my system. If that test in Negative as was the blood tests, then they want to see me about it. HELP ANYONE who...

I have been taking hydrocodone 10/325 for quite a while. I was recently given Hysingla ER 20mg and it has done nothing for me. I'm in agony and don't know what to do. This is my 2nd day of this medication and I'm about to go nuts from withdrawal symptoms. What can I do? ## @Blumbley57, Sorry to hear about your experience with Hysingla not working out. Given the information in your description, it sounds to me like it would probably be best to ask your doctor for the initial version of Hydrocodone that your body has already been accustomed to having on a regular basis. In the meantime while you're waiting to see the doctor again, I would encourage you to simply focus on taking care of yourself as best you can nutritionally, mentally, emotionally, and setting aside other p...
