I took an ibuprofen 800mg 3 hours ago and my pain didn't go away. Is it safe to take a percocet 10/325 (a333) with it? ## Hello, Ttrina! How are you? I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between Percocet and Ibuprofen, but it's always best to double check such information to be sure. And this only applies if you're sure that you took Ibuprofen. Tylenol contains Acetaminophen and so does Percocet, so you can't combine them, because it could result in overdose toxicity. 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. Are you certain you took Ibuprofen? ## Took 800 mg ibuprofen 330 min ago, can I take Percoce...

I have an oblong white pill with the imprint G 600 - What is it? I do not want to take the wrong medication and make things worse for myself. ## The tablet with the marking G 600 is listed as containing 600mgs of Ibuprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that is used to treat pain, fever, and swelling. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with?

I've had a bad toothache for the most part of the day. I took 2 ibuprofen around 6 this morning, then two Tylenol after my bike ride around 11 a.m. and then I took 2 ibuprofen around 4 p.m. and I took my first dose of sulfamethoxazole around 8:20 p.m... Could this hurt me? ## How are you feeling? Did you experience any adverse effects? The FDA does warn that combining these medications could result in more nausea, drowsiness, and dizziness than usual. Are you on any other medications?

Can kidney transplant patients use tramadol? Will tramadol make you reject your kidney? ## Is the prescribing doctor aware that you have had a kidney transplant? It isn't always contraindicated, but you do need to make sure your doctor is aware and has decided it is right for you to take. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, constipation, and headache.

I've been taking meloxicam 15mg once a day for three weeks. Now it does not seem to be helping at all. I have avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip. Can I take tramadol 50mg together with meloxicam 15mg for the pain? ## They are sometimes prescribed together, but you should only take them both, if your doctor approves. The FDA warns that Tramadol carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, and headache. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello I’ve been taking oxycodone 30 for about 10 years and I went to walmart pharmacy for almost 8 years they started using another generic maker and I can’t take it it makes. Me sick so I now go to kroger they are so rude I’ve been with them for 2years almost today they said I couldn’t have my medication until the 29 th day my bottle has a different date than what they allowed me to pick up I was wondering if the insurance will refill shouldn’t they allow me to pick up it’s been 28 days ## No, they do not have to, they are allowed to make you wait until just before you are out, they can actually make you wait until the 30th day, if they wish. This is a controlled substance and the DEA has issued some very strict directives regarding such prescription...

I had been taking a white colored hydrocodone but all of a sudden the pharmacy started giving me pink ones. At first I thought nothing of it but soon realized I was not getting the same results. I talked to my Dr thinking perhaps I needed one stronger but would let her know and watch it for awhile. This month I got the white pills again and after a week I realized these took care of my pain and lasted longer. My question is, what is the ingredient that makes them pink as I'm highly allergic to red dye and am thinking this could be the problem. ## Hello, Jacki! How are you? I am sorry about the problems you've experienced. What are the markings on them? I'm sorry, but a pill cannot be positively identified based on just the color. The FDA warns that Hydrocodone carries the ri...

After multiple (5) trips to the emergency room for severe back, spines & stomach pain I was finally given an MRI & X-RAYS which revealed I have 2 herniated discs & arthritis in my back. The herniated discs are located in my T5-T6 & T9-T10 area. The emergency room doctor who ordered my tests did perscribe me 5mg oxycodone to help subdue the pain until I was able to see my Dr monday. She also explained in grave detail what to expect from this medication & possible side effects along with becoming dependant to the medication if not properly taken. But before my MRI & X-RAYS were taken the emergency rooms prescribed me over 8 different non-narcotic pain medication, a steroid along with an anti-inflammatory medication. Now my doctor is having me go to physical therapy...

Is It Safe To Take 20mg Of Percocet And 4mg Hydromorphone Together every 4 hrs? ## I'm sorry, but there is actually no 20mg Percocet tablet. Percocet contains Acetaminophen and Oxycodone and is only available with a maximum of 10mgs of the Oxycodone. Did you mean just a regular Oxycodone tablet, like the generic for Roxicodone, which is available in a 20mg dosage? Have these both been prescribed by the same doctor? Many times, different narcotics are prescribed together, to try to help someone get better control of pain. A lot of times a person may given a regular release of time released narcotic, along with an instant release or regular release, respectively, so one can help control their pain faster, while the other one has the chance to kick in. When using 2 narcotics together, ...

I have Hep-C and am taking oxycodone-acetaminophen for severe knee pain. Meanwhile, my liver is getting worse. My "doctor" a P.A. says there is no oxycodone without acetaminophen. My hematologist says there is...and that I should be on it. Who's correct here and what should I do? ## There certain is Oxycodone available without Acetaminophen, it is sold under the brand names Roxicodone, which is a regular release formulation and an instant release one called OxyIR, both of which are also available as generics. Learn more Roxicodone details here. If you're just seeing the PA, that may be the issue, as they do not have as much knowledge as doctors. I'd suggest you ask to see an actual doctor to discuss the issue. Is tehre anything else I can help with? ## Oxycontin is a...

Hi this is padma..i get married 4 months before..i have dought for this okacet tablets..can i used this tablet for cold,, fever,bodypains... any side effects whenn am gettign pregnent time..i was some fear about this tablets.. ## Well from what I know okacet contains cetrizine which is an anti histamine. Hence it is meant to be taken to temporarily drive away symptoms of allergies like a runny nose, itching and watering of the eyes. Don't think it helps any with fever and body pains. Take a paracetamol to deal with that. Side effect is mainly drowsiness but might cause a heavy head and headache. Won't affect ur fertility or chances of pregnancy. Not to worry. Best to consult ur physician though! ## I think i m pregnant n suffering from cold allergy so can i take Okacet cold. ## ...

How long after taking 2 tylenol can I take a norco 5/325? ## I suffer severe neck pain from degenerative arthritis. My doctor refuses to give me a script for hydrocodone which is the only drug that helps me. Can you suggest some other drug I could take that would help me? ## Hello, Jennifer! How are you? It would be 8 hours, you'd need to replace the next Tylenol does with the Hydrocodone/Acetaminophen. Taking too much Tylenol/Acetaminophen in any 8 hour period may result in overdose toxicity, which can be fatal. 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.

I had a doctors appointment today and was told I failed a drug test for testing positive for opiates. I am prescribed oxycodone. I am confused as to how if oxycodone is not an opiate did I test positive for opiates. My visit is a difference of 85$ if I have to have another drug screen. I was given a warning and told that my next visit would cost the extra and my urine would then be sent to the lab if I failed again. How am I failing???? ## From what I understand Oxycodone does show up as an opiate.. However the last test I failed. the nurse called me and said I failed specifically for oxycodone.. It could depend on the test also.. Its confusing I know.. But your Doctor should be smart enough to know the Oxy is showing up as an opiate. You may have to point it out however and put some Go...
