I took only one 7.5 lortab and was drug tested. Will it show up in my urine? If so, for how long? ## It really depends a lot on what time you took the 7.5 Lortab and afterwards, the length of time you had before your drug test. Lortab has a half-life of roughly 3.8 hours. This means that 3.8 hours after the dose you took, half of the original dose is still present and active in the body. After another 3.8 hours (or 7.6 hours total), half of what was left after the first 3.8 hours is present and active (one-quarter of the original dose). Most pharmacists consider that after three to five "half-lives," close to 90% of the drug has been eliminated and is no longer affecting the body. The maximum wait to achieve five half-lives for Lortab would be: 5 x 3.8 = "19 hours". But ...

Hey all, I was born with dislocated hips and have had more than 10 operations throughout my life since I was born to correct the issue, according to my dr. It was the worst case he has ever seen and my hip bones and joints have fused into my pelvis I can not open my legs at all or spread them I can not run or jump walking is extremely difficult and I get tired fast and my legs are in a lot of pain after 27 years I had enough of it so my bone dr referred me to a pain specialist. Fast forward to three years later now I’m 30 years of age. My only hope is for a complete hip replacement and after being on pain medication for the last 3 years nothing is working anymore. My dr had me on 60mg of oxyContin 3 times a day (180mg daily) and short acting oxycodone twice daily. Now, my question...

I have being trying Lyrica it seems to not be working as well now and I am taking 4 to 5 pills a day. so how long can the body take it ? I have little constapation and I can work with good days.so my question is this amount going to end my life early or is it the pills work for the pain an I don't get loaded! which is good. Thxs Gene ## how long can you take ms-contin ## It's really entirely up to you and your doctor, there is no set time frame, it all depends on how well it works for you and whether or not it has caused you any problems. If you're blood work has come back good and your doctor sees no reason to worry, then there likely isn't one. Have you talked to them about your ...

I found a pill which i think to be either morphine, or mscontin. It is round shaped. Lite lavender in color. On one side it has a big M imprint, while on the other it has a "ms" on top of "30". Does anyone know what this is? ## The imprint "M MS 30" on a round lavender (purple) pill is identified as Morphine sulfate extended release 30 mg; which is used to relieve severe or agonizing pain and suffering, but also has a high potential for abuse. (NDC 00378-2659) Inactive Ingredients: - Silicon Dioxide - Hypromelloses - Lactose Monohydrate - Magnesium Stearate - Polyethylene Glycols - Polyvinyl Alcohol - Talc - Titanium Dioxide - FD&C Blue No. 2 - FD&C Red No. 40 ## Lite lavender sounds like MS Contin 30mg.

I currently take nuvigil for my ADD amd the DR thinks I have shift worker disorder and possibly another sleep issue such as sleep apnea. I also take ambien to sleep and percocet plus tramadol for chronic pain disorder. Is there any interactions I should be aware of with taking these medications together.....within the same 24 hr period obviously lol ## The Ambien combined with the Percocet and Tramadol could result in your experiencing more severe side effects, according to FDA warnings, which may include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, sedation, shallow breathing, respiratory depression. How are you doing while taking them? And did you mean that you are also taking Remeron?

I'm on percocet and diluadid after my 4th lumbar surgery. A family member forever asking for them. I knew how many I had before and after they left. Honestly I didn't see who took it so since they want to steal and leave me in pain I want to catch them and pay back. I ordered myself a locked pill container so can't happen again but really I want to fill my box I use with something OTC. My percocet is big yellow and round. I read that vivvan caffeine pull will work but only thing I know tiny small and white is birth control pill. I really wish exlax would look like it but anything otc I can use to catch him. But nothing harmful like a heart pill, just want to catch and stop them. Yes, looking into camera so can catch him red handed. I'm angry and hurt my own family would ...

There are new-generic 2017 Oxycontin now. My pharmacy filled my script with generic because they thought my Dr. Did not write "no substitution" he did by checking the "no substitution" box so they had to unfill & refill with OP's, not knowing what they are like, I did not want the generic. What do the 80 mg tablets look like? Do they work as well as the OP's? Who is the manufacturer? ## There is no generic Oxycontin currently available on the U.S. market. Generics are only available for the ones that aren't time released. What are the markings on the one the pharmacy provided you with? The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. ## ...

I found plenty of pharmacy that has my pain meds but tell me they can not fill my script because they cant except any knew patients at this time. I don't think it's fare that a pharmacy, can save there pills for there regular patients, should be first come first served, if all pharmacy are telling me that, then how will I ever be a customer, to any pharmacy. Helpless in Rincon, Ga. ## Because it is BS. What they are really saying is that they don't like the way you look. What it is is profiling. They think you look like a druggie so they are feeding you BS. What you do is take a script in to fill that is not a pain med and let them fill that. Then when you get your next pain med script take it back there. If they try to feed you that same BS, tell them to check their records...

I have the above which was prescribed for pain for surgery I had in 2011. Is this drug still safe and effective? ## Hello, Trina! How are you? If it is in a bottle as dispensed by your pharmacy, then it would have expired one year from the date it was dispensed to you. After that, it begins to lose potency and will not work as well. 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? ## This medication was used and there is still half the medication left will the pharmacy take them back and replace them if I pay for it

I tested positive after a U.A. Is it possible while on percoset, morphine, gabapinten, trazadone, and furosimide, that this combination can cause this? I would really like some answers so that I can show my doctor and get my opioids back. Thank You. ## I tested possitive for benzos. all i take is abilify and prazosin ## Hi Scott. A lot of anti-depressants will test as benzo ## Do Lexapro and trazadone cause false urine screens

I have been taking Lyrica 50mg 3x a day for idiopathic Peripheral Neuropathy in my legs and feet for the past 5 years. It works very well for me and I have -0- side effects. When I miss a dose my legs start burning and I become aware that I missed my dose. I also am able to get my Lyrica for free from Pfizer. ## Awesome! So very glad that it is working so well for you. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, mood changes, and weight changes. You haven't experienced any of them? That's amazing! Has anyone else had such a good experience with this? ## No, but then again my dose is rather low— 50 mg. 3 x a day ## I think most of you who are experiencing all the side effects mentioned in this forum would benefit if they lowered...

Do they work the same? Is Oxaydo as good as the Percocet? Do they do the same thing? What is the highest dose they come in? I am not used to taking these, I just got them yesterday. ## Percocet contains Acetaminophen and Oxycodone, but Oxaydo only contains the Oxycodone. The FDA warns that they both carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Percocet is available in a maximum dose of 10mgs of Oxycodone with 325mgs of Acetaminophen. Oxyado is only available in a maximum of 7.5mgs. Though Oxycodone itself, in other forms, is available in higher doses. How is it working for you? ## Does Oxaydo 7.5 and oxycodone 7.5/325 work the same? ## Can you tell me why my man was taking 10 mg Percocet since 2004 wh...

im getting some kind of a blood test at work and what im sure about that they only take 1 drop of blood and i heard its a DNA test , so i have 2 questions 1. if it was a DNA test will Lyrica show ? 2. is 1 drop of blood enough to test for Lyrica? plz i need an answer , and thank u in advance . ## Why would your employer be doing a DNA check? That doesn't really make a lot of sense, since that checks your heredity, and etc. Do you know any other details about it? And no, Lyrica is an anticonvulsant that is also used to treat some types of nerve pain, and mood disorders, so it would not be detected on such a sample. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, headache, mood changes, dizziness, and weight changes. ## why would they ask for it im not sure , and ...

Does the white round pill with cti 103 contain morphine or something else? I was told that it was a trazodone. ## A white round pill marked with CTI 103 (in black ink) on one side and blank on the other, reportedly contains 75mgs of Diclofenac sodium (delayed release). Manufacturer: Carlsbad Technology Inc. (hence the CTI) National Drug Code: 61442-103-10.

I was prescribed 5/325 mg tablets and told to take 1-2 for pain from kidney stone surgery. I did NOT have it filled because I still had some at home. I took one about 90 minutes ago and realized that they are 10/325. Is it ok to take another one or would that be dangerous. I know nothing about pain meds. ## It would depend on your tolerance and if you're taking any other medications. For someone not used to taking opiates 20mg of Oxycodone is quite a bit. However, it's not enough, in my opinion, to worry about overdose. You'll likely just get very sleepy. If you just took a 10/325 why do you feel the need to take another so soon? Also, if you're taking a benzodiazepine or muscle relaxant be careful. These drugs combined with Oxycodone can synergistically cause respirator...
