Dilaudid is a semi synthetic keytone or Hydromorphone HCL, so it is i feel its twice the potency of morphine, short acting though. I take 70mg Methadone HCL and Dilaudid for breakthrough pain. I did also get Percocet 10/325 but after this new law he would not give me a one. I never ever felt like a dope addict but yet feel they are scrutinizing me at some pharmacies. I am sick to death and because some people are just plain ignorant they ruined many lives of good upstanding folks of all ages. If he continues to cut me down i will go to another. I need help with that but i have no idea where to go in the Denver metro area. ## I don't understand how you are able to feel any narcotic with 70 mgs. of methadone in your system. Methadone works almost as a blocking agent once one has arriv...

Do they make an oxycodone 100mg tablet that's either white or light yellow with only 100 marked on one side and blank on the other? ## No, that tablet is manufactured by Carlsbad Technology and they list it as containing 15mgs of Meloxicam, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that is used to treat pain, fever, and inflammation. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. At this time, there is no 100mg Oxycodone tablet. Is there anything else I can help with?

I was prescribed Lyrica for fibromyalgia in 2009, 50 mg. twice a day, I took it for three years. It has messed up my life also. Stuttering, lack of memory, my gums hurt for a year, now my front teeth are crooked, and I've been referred to an orthodontist for braces. Really? I'm 63 years old! I'm afraid I'll lose my teeth as some of you have. I STOPPED taking it a year and a half ago on my own. Since I've read all of your problems, now I know why, it's the Lyrica. I had depression, was on anti-depressants. It also caused me to have cateracts, and each eye hemorrhaged one month after the surgery of each eye. I've had blurry vision since, it moves around in my eye like a cloud! We need an attorney that will represent all of us NOW! I even called the FDA. No one ...

I am on medicare in Wisconsin. I am on ms contin er 15mg tablets. I get them at cvs. I'm wondering if there is any way to get them cheaper? Seems like discounts aren't often allowed on medicare. ## Hi Jet, I'm not sure if Medicare allows patients to use pharmacy coupons in conjunction with their service, but I did want to add that MedsChat offers a free Rx Savings Card that can be used at over 60,000 pharmacies nationwide for an average discount of 15-75% off your medication. It might be worth presenting it at your next refill just to see what the dollar cost comes out to. If the savings outweighs what medicare provides, it may be practical to use it instead. Another idea is to ask the pharmacy about any patient assistance programs that the manufacturer offers (if any). I ho...

I have two separate halves of a white pill. They have 068 on there if you look at it one way. Or you can turn them around and 890 are the last three numbers. What pill is this? I took the half-pills from my son's possession and he claims they were Lortab. Any suggestions?

My dr treating me for 16 yrs. was closed down by DEA over 1yr ago. Since I've had no pain relief. I need my records of treatment & testing before the 16 yrs of treatment but my long-time treating dr (from Philadelphia, Pa.) refused to even reply to my request for records sent to him pre-treatment. I need more than medication from pharmacy to get proper treatment for chronic pain in several parts of my 60 yr old body. Do I have a legal right to my records of failed treatment & testing from 16 yr of treatment dr.??? ## You always have a legal right to your medical records, as long as that doctor is still in that same practice and has them, according to AMA directives. However, you can't just request them, individuals have to pay for them. There is usually a set free of any...

I am looking for camphomex. I was told by my doctor that it is an OTC item. However, I don’t know who has it or where I can order it? ## It is a topical spray and should be available at most drug stores, or pharmacies. Though some do keep camphor behind the counter, so you have to ask them for it, but it does not require a prescription. The FDA warns that it may cause skin redness, irritation, burning, and dryness, as side effects. Can anyone else think of a store, off hand, that carries it? ## No this did not help. I know camphor is available but not in a spray. CVS pharmacist had not heard of Camphomex spray. I have not checked Walgreens but my guess is I will have to actually try a “pharmacy” supply

I am taking 5mg (blue tablet) twice a day for back discomfort. I’ve been on it for quite s while I would say couple of yrs. I want to know if it can cause me to have a seizure every so often. They can’t find out any cause for them. I have no history of them or no one else in my family has seizures. I never ever had them before. I also get hot flushes through my whole body that last about 5 minutes or so every once in awhile. I want to go off them. How do I go about it. Is there a pill less strength than 5 mg(oxycodone). ## That is the lowest strength that I am aware is available, though if it is a regular release formulation, you should be able to cut it to lower the dosage, with your physician's approval. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habi...

I went to er with pancreatitis and kidney stones, and I was sent home with a prescription for norco 5-325 mg 1-2 q8h. Does this mean I can take up to 2 every 8 hrs? I am concerned cause it would help but I'm 5'3 94.6 lbs. Is that a safe dose for my size? He says it is but i wanted a different opinion. ## Yes, that is what it means according to the prescription details you've provided. 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. Your height and weight have nothing to do with the dosage prescribed, it is based on your tolerance to opiates, and how much pain you are in. Have you started them, yet? How are you doing? ## yes thanks for your reply. They made...

If you have a prescription, just inform them of this, when you go in for testing. Are there any questions or comments? ## Usually it takes approximately 5 half lives (The time it takes Ur body to breakdown/metabolize 1/2 of the drug) for 99.9675% of the drug to clear the...

Show me how the 10mg with no 325.want to see color size ## I'm sorry, but once a medication is available as a generic, it is manufactured by many different companies. All of the tablets are different and have different markings, so I cannot possibly post details on all of them for you. However, if you have a tablet that you are questioning and post back with its description and the markings on it, I will gladly check for you to see what it contains. Additionally, all Percocet tablets contain Acetaminophen and Oxycodone, if you are looking for information on one with the Acetaminophen, then it is just an Oxycodone tablet. 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 constipat...

I have a number of pills that have 8001 or 1008 written on them. They are blue. I was told they are Percocet 5/325, is that true? ## the pill is a light blue color, also round and it has 8001/8001 on one side and nothing on the other and ive tried to look for it but it isnt coming up ## This tablet is manufactured by Contract Pharmacal and they list it as containing 25mgs of Diphenhydramine, which is a generic for Benadryl, it is used to treat allergic reactions, and as a sleep aid. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, and drowsiness. Is there anything else I can help with?

pink with a 5114 and a v on it ## 5114 V is Acetaminophen 650 mg + Propoxyphene 100 mg a generic Darvocet ## Abe is correct, this was a very mild opiate narcotic that was discontinued several years ago, by the FDA, due to the cardiac dangers it caused, some of which were fatal, as well as the many overdoses it caused. They also warned it carried the risk of being habit forming. Thus, this is an old tablet, that is no longer available in the U.S. Are there any questions?
