I got a new pill today from my pharmacy but it's got a new imprint on it. It's supposed to be a 30 mg R oxycodone but it has like a 8 with a line and weird shape half moon thing with a line. Has anyone seen these or know about if there the same as the m. 30? ## Hi Melissa, What does the "R" stand for in "30 mg R oxycodone"? Did you mean "IR" (immediate release)? I've yet to come across a pill with the imprint you described, but I do know that Actavis Pharmaceuticals produces pills with a half moon (or crescent moon) logo. To find out if your pill description fits one of their products, I would recommend contacting their U.S. Customer Relations directly at: +1 (800) 272-5525 I hope that helps! Does anyone else here recognize this? ## I have a pill with...

Is it a dull ache, sharp pains, cramping? I couldn't find anything listed under the name Ubicar, do you know where it's from and what the active ingredient in it is?

They run from your lower back, split into 3 sets at your knees and then down your lower legs to toes. I experience severe pain from a collapsed L4 disk. My GP is a great and very honest ...

My wife aged 27 is in the 11 th week of pregnancy. she has been advised to take Ecosprin once in a day with NaturogestSR300. will this harm the foetus. Moreover, will this cause any sideeffects ## Hello, Asif! How are you? Congratulations on the baby! :-) All medications carry the risk of causing side effects, but they may be necessary if her doctor feels the benefits outweigh any potential risks. Ecosprin contains the active ingredient Aspirin and if given during pregnancy, it's usually because the doctor wants to make sure that adequate blood flow is making it to the woman's uterus and the baby, but only the doctor can let her know for sure why he wants her to take it. Its side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation. Learn more Ecosprin details ...

I've been on dilaudid 4mgs for 9 years for damaged pancreas and now I have hip problems that are very painful, and the pain medication is not controlling the pain.. It's maddening....hopeless. ## Hello, Joy! How are you? I am sorry that you're in so much pain. It goes as high as 32mgs, so there are higher doses you can try. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. What other medications have you tried? ## Since the year 2000 I was prescribed 180 60mg at a time of morphine extended release and morphine 15mg extended release three times a day each +184 5mg oxycodone instant release tablets per day.

I ran out of my oxycodone 10. I usually take it 4 times a day. I was given abg 15 morphine until I get my next rx. Should I take it 2 times per day to keep from having any withdrawals? I have only taken 1 and that was at 8 am this morning I had no problems so far.

Hello sir/ madam I am 31 years old and I have a toothache for three days can I take this medicine without doctor consult actually I am in Singapore and I plan to do dental check up in India so I prefer to take tablet next month I am going until that period is this painkillers is ok for me to stop the pains or there is some side effect or bad effect on my health

So, this is my situation. I was on Fentanyl 75, and oxycodone 15 for breakthrough pain.my pain stems from a bad back which led me to have three back surgeries and still have inj's. radiofrequency ablation's with not much success. I just moved back here to AZ from Colorado and saw my previous p.m. Dr. Because of Swimming I've had a couple patches falloff and even lost one in the pool. So when I went to the p.m. Dr. he wouldn't help me wean off fentanyl cause I was 10 days early on the script. Even taking my oxy 15 I had horrible withdrawals. Headache, ears ringing, restlessness and worse to me restless legs. My p.m. Dr. said he would switch my patch to something different and wean me down but not until a months time. After complaining and explaining the pain that I was go...

can not get my didludid filled after walgreens did it last month and refused this month due to good faith dispensing?? ## Hello, Fred! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. What other pharmacies have you tried? You need to actually physically go to them, with the prescription in hand, in order to find out if they carry it. 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. Does anyone else have any ideas? ## In response to above regarding Dilaudid prescription, the poster who first answered you said you must physically take it to them-though I didn't see anything in your post about you taking it or not taking it to them in person! I did...

I am currently 34 weeks pregnant and have been taking hydrocodone for about three weeks to a month. I have stopped and had no withdrawal symptoms, but am wondering if my newborn will test positive for this? ## I am by no means a doctor, but from my understanding they can test the placenta and detect any narcotics taken at any point during the pregnancy. I hope this info helps and maybe someone can explain it better than I can. Best of luck to you.

Hello, I take 60mg of Oxycontin 4 times a day and have for like 7 years. I also take oxycodone 90mg total a day prescribed for both, but the oxycodone for just the past few years and diazepam. Well I just recently took a urine med match drug test for my pain management. I've never seen my past results, so I don't know what they say. But this time for some reason quest diagnostics sent me the results and I was floored at what it said, part of it gave levels, and it said my oxycodone, I guess that included oxycontin as well. It said I had 18007 ng/ml in my system, and the cutoff was something like <50. But I don't know for what that cutoff level is for. I don't know what to do, that scares me, and nobody will explain it to me yet. Is there a calculation that I need to ...

weakest to strongest pain medications ## LoLo Go to: Wikipedia and search Opioid Comparison ## Yes, there are really far too many for anyone to list them all and compare them for you, especially with your lack of specificity. If you restrict it to opiates, as capt ekim talked about searching for, then that narrows the list a bit, but in regards to general analgesics there are many on the market, both over the counter and prescription only medications. Additionally, there's no way to really know which will be stronger or weaker for any given person, since medications can affect everyone differently. For example, I get completely whacked out sick from some that work great for other people and their best choices don't do anything to help me with pain. Are there any other questions ...

I live in Somerset Ky. I have a pre written prescription of hydrocodone 90 10/325. I will be working in Franklin Indiana when my refill is due way into past refill date. I would like to know if Ind will fill that Ky script? Thank you ## Yes, technically you can, however, most pharmacies will not fill them, because it is difficult for them to validate it to ensure it is a legitimate prescription. You may want to try speaking to someone as your current pharmacy to see if they have an affiliate in that area, as they may be able to smooth the way for you to get it filled. The FDA warns that narcotics carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## i want to fill te...

I took a Hydrocodone on Sunday at midnight and I have a hair follicle test on Tuesday. Will it show up on a test? ## A hair drug test is meant to show consistent use over time. A 1.5 inch sample, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days. Also it takes about 7-14 days for the hair to grow above the scalp for it to be able to be cut for testing so my best guess is that you should be negative on a hair drug test. ## Hi I took Two 10mg of vicodir on friday I have a hair drug test my question is will it show up in my hair,, ## The short answer, NO. A hair drug test is meant to show consistent use over time. A 1.5 inch sample of hair, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days. You didn't do enough for it to show up in a hair drug test.

Taking Amoxicillin for gum infection but not helping Pain. I took relative oxycodone for pain- it helps but is there damage tht can b done by taking both? ## There shouldn't be a problem, as long as they have both been prescribed for you. I didn't find any problems or interactions listed, but it's always best to double check. However, they are commonly prescribed together to treat an infection and the pain it may cause. The FDA classifies Oxycodone 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. Amoxicillin may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Do you know why...

I started taking Lyrica for chronic nerve pain that causes a pick axe stabbing in my ear and pain in my jaw. Initially, I did gain weight (12 pounds to be exact) but have been losing it with diet and exercise. I am just 6 pounds from my orignal weight. What distresses me is that over the past few days, my stomah looks as if I swallowed a bowling ball. I had three hernia repairs and on the third, the surgeon put in a mesh. It has its own problems, but my stomach has even worse bloating than it did before the hernia surgery. I have never experienced my stomach as bad as it is right now. I am never constipated, because I eat a lot of fibre. From past experiences with constipation, I had a fair bit of bloating, but this is ridiculous. I have a long history of eating disorders and this may push

I have had 2 plates and 8 screws placed in my neck and have hardware in my low back. The pain management Dr I have been going to for the past 3 yrs just released me from his practice with some bs excuse now I need to find another Dr that will write my scripts. I was only on 120 30mg oxycodone a month just enough to help me go to work and support my family and then be blessed to spend time with my family after working and not be in a ton of pain. Can anyone refer me to a new Dr that doesn't have a problem writing this same script near the South Philly or jersey area

How often would you have to take Hydrocodone before you would become dependent on it? I take one pill in the evening before bedtime for knee pain. ## If you were taking it every day, yes you may become dependent on it, even if it is just one pill. I can't give you a time frame, because it varies from person to person, but your body can become dependent on anything that you take on a regular basis for a long period of time. It should be noted, however, that there is a difference between dependence and addiction, addiction only occurs if you're abusing a medication and keep taking more and more of it, because you like how it makes you feel. This is the problem that cause dangerous types of withdrawals. If you are dependent on something, there can be withdrawal effects, but they ar...

I have had a prescription for the fentanyl patches for servere back pain 25mcg/hr, I also take xodol 10-300 mg. The patch was so much trouble to use ( not staying stuck ) I stopped using them a few months ago. But recently the pain got so bad I decided to use a few that I had left over. Not thinking about them I had a routine urine test in my doctors office. Well the fetanyl showed up. The doctor understood that it was an unintenttional error on my part since I didn't have a current prescription for them. I thought since they were prescribed to me that I could still use them. Which I found out I couldn't. He told me if it happened again he could no longer treat me. I know now that I can not use them ( in fact I threw them away) if I don't have a current prescription but was ...
