I found a white round pill that says "Citra" on one side and "50" on the other. I’m thinking it’s Tramadol, but can’t find any images on the web. I mostly see there are some from Mexico that are pink or white but have no imprint. I’m baffled as to what this pill might be. ## I’ve never seen Citra use an imprint.

Dropped my 20mg Roxicodone in rainwater and it dissolved completely in 44mL. How can I dry the rainwater out of it in hopes of salvaging my medication? ## Hi - I’m not sure if I fully understand the question, but I think the short answer is “you can’t”. I don’t think you could reconstitute the pill, or evaporate the rainwater and ingest any powder that’s left. I think the best you could do is swallow the dissolved pill with the rainwater. ## I don’t think you can and I wouldn’t recommend drinking the rain water because that’s how you get parasites. It’s really a shame that if something like this happens, we have to suffer because there isn’t an extra pale as a buffer to replace this one. I’m sorry. ## As the others ...

I saw a Dr. assistant and she prescribed a medication for me. Her name is on the Rx bottle with the abbreviation Aurobindo - Not sure what this means... Please help. ## Hello, Clinton! How are you? Arubobindo is the name of the manufacture of those particular tablets. The FDA classifies Tramadol as an opioid, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. ## I need help identifying a pill from Mexico. It says it's tramadol 50mg and it's in a light tan capsule with no imprints. Is this a legitimate brand? ## I have these generic Tramadol pills from Mexico and the brand says Paliadol, but they are plain white pills with nothing on them. Can you confirm this brand? ## I'm in mexico they ...

Hello all, I am a longtime chronic pain sufferer. I have taken opiates for pain for over 10 years. I recently got a prescription filled (from a well known pharmacy chain in the U.S.) and I was given these new Watson 853 white (not yellow) hydro 10/325 pills. I wanted to ask the forum here if any of you have had the same experience with them as I have. I know there are some very smart people with advanced chemistry knowledge here that may have delved deeper into whats going on with these things. They are ineffective for me. I've taken hydrocodone 10/325 for 10+ years and have never ever had a problem with pills being ineffective but that is the case with these pills. I've had about every brand you can think of and never an issue. Ever. I thought nothing of the color change when I...

2 months na po akong delayed..possible po ba na buntis ako..pinapagamit ako ng boyfriend ko ng cortal..pwede bang malaglag yung baby ko..help me please..????? :( ## Ang iyong ginawa ng isang pagbubuntis test o nakakita ng isang doktor? Cortal ay naglalaman ng mga aktibong sahog aspirin, hindi ito agas ng pagbubuntis, hindi rin ito maiwasan ang pagbubuntis.

I have mouth cancer that is very painfull and have been taking opioids/pain meds for many years. My tolerance is extremely high, so to have the meds actually work on the pain i'm needing a lot more than most. Just a guide of what i thank would help me and my history with pain meds: About 360 roxys 30mg, 180-240 lortabs 10mg, 90 morphine er mg, 150 xanax 2mgs, and 180 somas, which is not a lot to me.

I have a serious problem. My dr. had two patients start dr. shopping and has decided it is too big of a pain in his butt to continue prescribing, even though I have gotten MRIs and Xrays to prove my problems. I have over a half a dozen herniated discs in my low back, along with degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, scoliosis and arthritis in my facet joints. I am currently on5 30mg oxycodone a day for breakthrough and 60mg of methadone for my long lasting meds. I REALLY need a doctor in the Denver, CO area who will not judge me because of my age, thinking I'm just some drug seeker as I TRULY need my meds to function. I am even being placed on disability until I can get my back healed because if something doesn't change I will be in big time pain for the rest of my life. If...

This is a very small round white pill. F D is printed on one side with a break line, 632 is the imprint on other side. ## In my investigation, the pill in description is reportedly identified as Torbutrol (Butorphanol tartrate), indicated for veterinary use in dogs to help alleviate coughing as well as acting as a sedative/pain reliever. Due to the lack of available information on this pill, I would still encourage you to get a second opinion from a local veterinary office or clinic, as there have also been rumors of this being a drug called Aminopentamide (Centrine) - which is also used in veterinary medicine for vomiting and diarrhea. I hope this info helps! Please post back if you're able to get a more concrete answer. ## Yes I believe that’s correct…had this pill for...

After taking M 30 Oxycodone my small pharmacy changed me to K9 30mg Oxycodone. The K9's are not taking away my pain at all. Anyone else had the same problem with K9's? ## Hi Maggie, I may not have personal experience with this, but according to a number of reviews I've read from other users, these particular pills are touted as one of the less potent brands on the market; only working sometimes - depending on your tolerance and severity of pain. I can only speculate that the manufacturer (KVK-Tech) probably could've changed out certain binders and fillers, as this often has an effect the overall absorption of the drug itself. This might also explain why it's not managing your pain very well. You can learn more about this drug on the page for Oxycodone Details Has any...

The pill is white and has a fancy 3 on one side and numbers on the other side. It is larger than a white aspirin. ## yellow capsule with Y5224 and 3850 printed on them. what are they? ## I am not finding a listing for this, does anyone else have any information on it? ## Can someone please help identify a pill I found in my son's room?

Having dental work in 4 days. I take 10/325 hydrocodone, but will need to also take a valium that a.m. due to severe apprehension at dentists. Is this a problem? ## They can be taken together, if prescribed, but you may experience more severe side effects than usual, such dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, and sedation, as reported by the FDA. Thus, please make sure you will not be driving or operating dangerous machinery. Is there anything else I can help with? ## can I take hydrocodone and 5mg valiuum within 2 hrs of each other ## Took half of 5mg valium two hours ago. Can I have 7.5 hydrocodone now or wait ## I took hydrocodine/acetaminophen this morning can I take diazepam tonight ## I think this depends on whether you have a Pain contract or not.

Small yellow pill with L imprint ## yellow round pill with a capital L on it. it is not black it is just imprinted into the pill ## small round pill with an L imprint on it, nothing on the other side, what is it? ## While the L isn't always black, these tablets are listed as containing 81mgs of Aspirin. The FDA warns that it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. Drummerchef, what color is your tablet? ## The version with a black L may correspond with NDC code 57896-981, and yes, it's delayed release ASA 81mg. Below is a picture as the OP requested. There is also a version where the L is embedded directly into the tablet (not a different color). ## I'm also looking to identify a medication with this d...

My husband has been seeing the same Dr. for 12 years or more, yet he refuses to write an RX for Norco but Will continue writing them for Dilaudid, morphine, exalgo, and allot of other schedule 2 prescriptions. This makes no sense. My husband had the entire right side of his body crushed in a car accident in 1984. He's had several spine and neck fusions and has sever chronic pain. In a notification I read on the internet, people were supposedly given a chance to voice their concerns. I don't remember getting that chance. I also suffer from chronic pain due to a moderate form of Sppina beffita. What do you do in a situation like this? ## Hello, Kat! How are you and your husband? I"m sorry about the problems that you're having. Is the doctor refusing to prescribe him anythi...

I am prescribed 60mg of morphine sulfate twice daily and 30mg of immediate release morphine every eight hours. About one to two hours before the next dose is due I become very sleepy. When I take my dose it makes me wide awake. Why does it work this way on me ## Hello, Trish! How are you? There's no real explanation for it, that's just how some opiates work in some people that take them. That's part of the reason that some people become addicted, they like the rush of energy they get from them, so they keep taking more and more to keep experiencing it. 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 ca...

Does anyone know why Dilaudid doesn't make me sleepy anymore? When I first started taking it I was very drowsy and now I don't fall asleep anymore. Nor do I get drowsy. Is this normal? ## Hello, Katrail! How are you? Such side effects usually only last for a few weeks, while your body is getting used to the medication, then they taper off. Thus, it shouldn't make you drowsy, all the time, if you're taking it regularly. 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. Have you discussed the issue with your doctor? They may be able to prescribe something to help you sleep. ## This is common with opiates. Usually if you are taking it for too long your body...

I can't get my RX for hydromorphone filled anywhere so had it compounded. A tech was showing the pharmacist how to compound it while I waited, so I opened one up to check it when I got home and it had black specks looking like pepper mixed into the white powder. Any explanations? I will not take the caps till I find out what is in them. ## Hello, Nicky! How are you? Most likely, it's just a filler or something they used in the compounding process, but the only person who can give you a definitive answer is the pharmacist that compounded it for you. Don't worry about going in and asking, they are used to getting questions like yours and shouldn't hesitate to help you.

I started taking oxycodone 15mg 4x a day that was tues. an they want me to come in for urine test thurs. ! will it be in my system enough to get an accurate reading?I was upped my dosage cause 3 wasnt helping much! So wont i need to be on it 4 times a day for at least a week for them to see a difference? ## Your levels should go up within hours of taking the new amount and it is most likely that they know how long it will take to show up and are aware of what the elevating levels should be. Learn more Oxycodone details here. If you're that concerned, then just remind them when you go in for the test that you've only been taking the new dosage for a couple of days. Are there any other questions or comments? ## When they do a urine test (send it to lab) can they tell that i was of...

Doctors thar accept medicaid in houston, tx area that prescribe oxy and morphine ## Do they really accept Medicaid? ## Hello, Lisa! How are you? I'm sorry, but there is no listing of doctors according to what they will or will not prescribe that I can refer to for you. And due to the new regulations that were put in place last year, if you require such medications on a long-term, ongoing basis, you'll need to see a specialist. Do you currently have a PCP that may be able to refer you to someone? If so, that would most likely be the easiest way to find the help you need. Can anyone suggest a good doctor in that area? ## There are no new regulations that state you must see a Pain Management Dr for chronic pain. Although it may be very difficult to find a pcp who will treat a new p...

I need ppl who have tried the new Xtampza er med to tell me if it works the same as oxycontin? I need to switch so I wanted to know the strength of the new med in comparison. ## Hello, Lynx! How are you? It contains Oxycodone as its active ingredient, just like Oxycontin, it is a little stronger, so the comparable dose is usually a few milligrams lower than Oxycontin. The FDA warns that it still carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Yes I am just concerned about the difference in the abuse deterrent added to the Xtampza compared to that is added to oxycontin. When Purdue added their abuse deterrent it actually lowered the effectiveness of the med. So ...
