Pain Relief Forums (Page 161)

Hi, I'm new to the forum. I am looking for direct help or guidance to procure Norco 10/325. I have been getting nowhere and my medical records only stretch back two months, so I am having difficulty getting a prescription. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. ## The biggest problem you are having may be due to the fact that you are trying to obtain a specific medication, along with questions as to why your medical records only go back 2 months. Most doctors will look at those two factors and immediately find them suspicious, as they are commonly the signs of a drug seeker. Don't you have an established regular doctor? ## I have a family practice doctor, but I have not been to her in a while. It makes sense that it would look suspicious. Do you have any other advice r...

FOR TWO DAYS THROAT INFECTION AND FEVER BODY PAIN ## Have you seen a doctor for this? There are several things that can cause such problems and if it is an infection, you will more than likely require an antibiotic, which can only be prescribed by a doctor. Such symptoms could be cause by the flu virus, in which case, it is not an infection and, while you can treat the symptoms, it just has to run its course. ## suffering from throat pain, body pain ## Lots of possibilities. Ask yourself these questions: Have you been around anyone with similar symptoms within 3-7 days; are you immunocompromised due to any medications and/or illness; have you or are you willing to they otc remedies such as Nyquil, dayquil, Advil cold and sinus, etc; are you prone to allergies (the time for pollen and ot...

I am transitioning from methadone and oxycodone to oxycontin (all prescribed), but took 15mg of morphine (not prescribed). Will a standard 5 panel ua detect this? I am wondering because when I had my ua today, they had me fill out a form listing all my medications. Does this mean they are going to do a more thorough test for individual drugs, and would that show morphine? ## Usually a five panel has opiates test on it so yes morphine will show as a positive opiate result for up to 72 hours

Is this still available? It works! ## Empirin compound was the only pain reliever in my home when I was young (60+ years ago). From what I've read, it looks like it was simply aspirin, with no added ingredients, although it worked extremely well on a tooth ache. Was Empirin the forefather of aspirin? ## The compound, such as Empirin 3 contained Aspirin and Codeine, it was a mild opiate 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, constipation, and headache. This medication combination is still available as a generic, and among other name brands. However, in the U.S. you do need a prescription from your doctor. Is there anything else I can help with?

I AM IN LINDENHURST LONG ISLAND, NY. I AM LOOKING FOR A DOC THAT PRESCRIBES 30MG OXYCODONE WITHOUT BEING A STICKLER. MY LAST DOC IS OUT OF BUSINESS. CAN ANYONE GIVE ME A DOC NAME? I WILL SELF PAY ## Under the new regulations that went into effect on April 1st, doctors no longer have any choice but to be sticklers about prescribing such medications. If they aren't careful and don't very closely monitor their patients, they risk losing their license to practice medicine. And being a self-pay is just going to make it even harder. Most doctors and pharmacies will shy away from that in regards to controlled substances, because it makes it too easy for someone to doctor and pharmacy shop to get multiple prescriptions for controlled substances. I would also like to let you know that go...

Found a pill almost identical to my u22 oxycodone what could this be? I went to take my medicine and noticed there was a pill in the bottle that looked exactly like my medicine but didn't have a line on the back single mother raising teenager and concerned that maybe there may be some substance abuse and was wondering what this could be that looks just like my medicine ## Could this be a vitiman? When I approached him I want to know exactly what I'm dealing with and let him know that he's been in my meds for someone has and want to know what it is ## Does this look-a-like share the same imprint, size, shape and texture as your U22 oxycodone pill?

I have a white oblong pill with just 357 on one side and nothing on the other side. I'm on many medications and found an older bottle in my other purse where the writing faded off of it... ## Hi! May I ask what a Lupin n357 pill looks like and what it contains? ## @Link, You mentioned that the writing faded off of your tablet. Is it possible that the full imprint on the front says M357 and scored on the back? If so, you may have a Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen (5/500mg) tablet made by Mallinckrodt. @Renee, The pill you're describing sounds like Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen (7.5/325mg) made by Novel Labs (Lupin acquired them back in 2016). It's depicted as a white oblong / capsule-shaped pill with N | 357 on one side and 7.5 on the back. I hope this helps!

I'm currently taking Trazodone for sleep. I am also involved in a outpatient drug program that uses Zubsolv rather than Suboxone. My last three drug screens have come back positive for fentanyl which I have never used even during my addiction. My question is, is it possible that the Trazodone would cause my urine screens to come up positive for the fentanyl? ## I AM ON A SUBOXONE PROGRAM AND EVERYTIME I DO A URINE TEST IT COMES BACK POSTIVE FOR FENTANYL AND I HAVE NEVER TAKEN FENTANYL OR ANY DRUG LIKE IT, I HAVE HEARD SOMETHING ABOUT FENTANYL AND TRAZODONE AND I DO TAKE TRAZODONE FOR SLEEPING IS THIS WHY I AM TESTING POSITIVE FOR FENTANYL, I AM GOING CRAZY BECAUSE I HAVE LOOKED EVERY WHERE AND CAN'T FIND ANY REASON WHY IT'S THERE, PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE THIS OUT. ## Hi Bonita...

I have been on a regimen of hydrocodone by my pain management dr. for ruptured discs for a few years. This week I had to be at my parents to take care of my parents post her surgery. She has percocet (oxycodone) . I was without my meds and took two of hers instead. I know my Dr. uses a very sensitive drug test (what was I thinking?) and this was an inocent action...he would not be understanding! How long will this be in my system before my drug test in about 1or more months away. His tests are about 600 dollars a pop and knowing he is checked on by the state I have no doubt his tests are extremely sensitive. Am I screwed here or will drinking a lot of water save me? I do have a few weeks. ## Percocet (oxycodone) will be long out of your system by then. It will be out within 2-5days. Rel...

I asked my doctor the same question yesterday, she said "no", because once it hits the air, the strength starts to dissipate, or weaken. So she put me on the lowest dose, as I hope to get off them and all meds eventually. ## No, you can't cut it in half and the reason for it is because it is time released and cutting the patch could cause you to get too much of the medication at once, which may result in a dangerous overdose. Learn more Fentanyl details here. Are there any other questions or comments? ## What about the new style without the gel. You know like the nicotine patches Can you cut those ones half? and just cut your dose.. thanks..

I am curious if anyone knows a pain clinic in Stanislaus County CA, or Dr. who will prescribe adequate amounts of pain medication. I have Cerebral Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Spina bifida, arthritis, etc. I have had chronic intractable pain for years. I can only get 15mg morphine 3Xday, and I might as well not take any at all. Now I am suffering from severe depression and am losing interest in everything I used to love due to the constant pain. By the way, these Doctors and P.A.'s like to tell patients it's the DEA's fault. Actually, several years ago, the FDA came out with a narcotic "guideline" for prescribing meds. They lowered the amounts usually given for chronic intractable pain, so low that most patients were no longer adequately medicated. The "guid...

Is 100Mg morphine sulf er, 600 Mg gabapentin 3 aday, 4 dilaudid 4Mg, 1 ambian 10Mg,and 1 elival 50 Mg, aday to much? EVERY DAY ,THANK YOU! ## There is really nothing unusual about these dosages and dosage frequencies for someone who is obviously being treated for chronic pain. The only time it would really be considered too much is if you had suddenly jumped to these dosages, without ever having used them before. Really, the operative questions is, have these all been prescribed by the same doctor, so your usage and dosages are monitored? Morphine ER this is a generic for MS Contin, a time released tablet. Common side effects can include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Gabapentin, the active ingredient in Neurontin is an anticonvulsant also used to treat nerve pain. C...

I have a petition against Actavis Pharmaceutical for distributing bad Oxycodone. I called Actavis on the phone and they claim that the formula is the same. I was told by a reliable source that the formula has changed along with more fillers and binder included. Please let me know if you want to find my petition on Change.org. The heading will read ACTAVIS pharmaceuticals: STOP SELLING OXYCODONE AS A PLACEBO PILL TO CHRONIC PAIN SUFFERERS! Stop lining the pockets of Actavis Pharmaceutical! Thank you ## I have been taking 15mg Oxycodone for some time now. I actually break the tablet into quarters and take 3.75mg at night.

I was prescribed both when I went to my local hospital. I had broken my ankle in 3 places in August and came for a check-up. That seems to be fine although I must continue with a dressing. Th weirdest thing is I have a severe pain from my groin in the right leg (the good leg) right down to my knee. They have taken x-rays and then the medicines (Tramadol is the other one) and I have to go to physiotherapy on 14 February. I am completely knocked out during the day and fall asleep all the time.

Please let me know whether Bio-D3 Max contains any painkiller? How long is it safe to continue for women suffering from osteoarthiritis?

Bio D3 Max is simply a vitamin D supplement, it is given to arthritis patients to help support their bone and joint health, because many people don't get enough in their diets. As a supplement, it is safe to continue taking, unless your doctor tells you otherwise. It is a nutrient that is vital to the health of our bodies.
