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, ...

Thank you ## They both contain different opiates, Oxycontin contains Oxycodone, while Opana contains Oxymorphone. However, the dosage you've been prescribed is equivalent. Have you tried taking it, yet? The FDA clas...

My two 5 mg oxycodone was changed to one 10 mg oxycodone - a round small pink pill that does not work at all. ## What are the markings on the tablets? Have you talked to your doctor about the issue? Learn more about Oxycodone Details ## 10 mg oxycodone is a small round pink pill with imprint 93 on one side and 7153 on the other - Some other names are roxy 10 mg or roxicodone 10 mg ## I have fibromyalgia as well as spinal stenosis with bulging discs. I also have a lot of back & leg pain which is flaring up the fibromyalgia even more. What more can I do if oxycodone 10mg doesn't help relieve the pain?

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. Dorothy, have you tried pain management? You may get more help from a speci...

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...

I suffer from severe plantar fascittis. It flares up periodically, to the point I have to crawl. I need pain medication: Norco or Vicodin. ## I need a new pain mgmt Dr in Northern California to prescribe my 30mg oxycodone immediate release pills as I'm sick with 5 autoimmune diseases and can't go without them, as I've been taking them for 20 yrs now... Please, someone send me some info. ## Any luck or leads? I mean, seriously. Sometimes being concise is detail enough. ## I hate to say it but there is nothing strong enough to stop the severe pain associated with plantar fasciitis. I had surgery in both feet for it.

I need to find a doctor in Clay City, In. that will prescribe percocet. ## Why do people need Percocet/oxycodone? I have been reading a lot of posts and I see people Dr. shopping. In order to get pain meds/narcotics/controlled substances, you must go to a licensed Pain Clinic. You have to sign a pain contract, take a U/A every two months and can only get your pain meds from your Pain Clinic. Family doctors, family medical practices and even Sports medicine Centers as well only prescribed Percocet for a very short period of time. An example is when I get a tooth pulled I get 17 Percocet which is enough to last for five days and then your tooth should be healed. I don’t suggest that you keep Dr. shopping because it will catch up with you. What I’m suggesting for these people t...

I need to find a doctor in MN who will prescribe me 5mg Percocet. I'm currently on a narcotic contract with my primary physician. I have recently seen an Ear Nose and Throat specialist and said I have a severe chemical burn located in my throat by my vocal cords. He said it was the worst chemical burn he has ever seen. It is due to many years of severe acid reflux and smoking cigarettes. He said there is no way to repair it, and it will most likely get worse because of my acid reflux. My primary doctor refuses to give me anymore medication than 15 pills a month. I am struggling to eat and swallow on a daily basis. I need help finding a new doctor. One who cares. ## Alina medical Northfield mn go see Bridget McLaren. She is a great P/A n truely cares about helping people live pain fr...

i get oxycodone 30 mg pascribed to me every month but i always have trouble finding them ,i have insurance is there any other way for me to get them . ## Do you have a pharmacy that you use regularly? If so, since this is a regular and recurring prescription, they should be able to order them in for you. Another relevant questions is, how are you going about trying to find them? If you are just calling the pharmacies, rather than going in, with prescription in hand, you are probably not going to get truthful answers. When it is just a voice on the phone, they have no way of knowing if they are talking to an actual customer or a potential robber. Thus, in most cases, due to the high risk of theft, they will not actually tell you the truth about controlled substances. You can also check a...

For approx the past six months I have had even more problems than usual filling my morphine ir 30 mg. twice there have been drug shortages. I need to change to an equivilant medication like roxicodone,or something similar. What dose of oxycodone is equal to 4 X msir 30mg per day??? I take a toal of 120 a month, in additon to taking a low dose of methadone as well. I dont want to increase the methadone so need to find something to replace the msir 30mg's. ## Morphine is one a half times stronger than Oxycodone, so you'd actually need a lower dose of the Oxycodone. 20mgs of it for each 30mgs of the Morphine. 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 the...

I'm having hernia repair surgery soon. I have a regular monthly prescription for 120 hydrocodone. Will pharmacy fill a new pain medication prescription after surgery even if I should technically have hydrocodone already? Desperate for answers. Thank you and God bless. Much obliged, Padre Tummy Hurts ## It depends on what the prescription is for, including the active ingredients and the dosage. If it is for the same medication that you are already prescribed, they most likely won't, but if the dosage is different, or the active ingredients are different, they should. The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Are there differences between the prescriptions...
