I have been in pain management for 12 yrs. I have just been changed to 10 mg roxicodone 4xs day. use to take 10 mg perocet. Plus my normal 80 mg. Oxycontin 4 per day. My question is what is the difference between 10mg roxicodone and 10mg perocet ## Hello, Suzie! How are you? Percocet contains Acetaminophen and Oxycodone, the Acetaminophen augments the action of the narcotic, so it makes it more potent and effective for some people. However, the Roxicodone only contains the Oxycodone, by itself. 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 there anything else I can help with? ## Not in the least the same Roxy 10 not nearly as strong plus quick release.Oxycontin 8...

I am currently prescribed oxycodone, seroquel xr, pristiq, requip, and ambien. I recently had a urine test come back positive for benzodiazepines. Is there anything you see that would cause this? ## probably because it potentiates GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, by binding to GABAA receptors at the same location as benzodiazepines? ## probably AMBIEN potentiates GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, by binding to GABAA receptors at the same location as benzodiazepines? ## probably because AMBIEN potentiates GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, by binding to GABAA receptors at the same location as benzodiazepines? ## Almost certain it would be the ambian as it technically falls into the benzo category for medications.

Dosage Conversion chart for Roxicodone immediate release from extended release ## Hello, Cappy! How are you? There is no conversion chart, since you're talking about the same medication, Oxycodone. One is just a slow release and one isn't, so the regular release is taken more frequently, with the dose split up throughout the day. The dose for the extended release is just split in half and taken twice a day. 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. Is there anything else I can help with? ## i have spinal stenosis and cronic back pain with muscle spasams ofteni take15mgofroxycodone 5times a day but at night i feel like i need...

I'd like to know what does a fake Percocet look like? Is there Percocet with black spots on them that are round and it says "tec" on the other side? ## Fake percocet could very well look identical to the real thing; as this is their inherent goal for all intended purposes... I think that's really a broad question though, because there are different looking percocet tablets on the market and each fake tablet could be made to look like each real version... That's what they use the pill presses for. I personally haven't seen a percocet that fits your depiction, but then again I don't know if you're in the same country as me (America)... Where ever you may be, the tablets could very well look different or change on any given day based on the manufacturer'...

Last night at the er i was given a shot of demeral and was given to take home 6 tylenol3. I waited 3 to 4 hrs still in major back pain and took the tylenol 3 since doc said demeral would only give temp relief.

ive been prescribed oxycodone between 5mg up to 30 mg at a time any where from 3 times a day up to 5 times a day. I have a debilitating degenerating bone disease in my hips and lower back have 1 artificial hip awaiting the other replacement ... nothing else helps the pain except medicine that's being highly abused in my area and with recent fear of dr writing scripts its very hard to find a dr who will write them. this has forced me to patron some questionable facilities in the past several years. now im out of options and my family dr doesn't prescribe them. The only pharmacy that I can get them at wont fill them from that dr. what do I do? any ideas where I could go aside from the hope clinic? ## In Christiansburg va there are 2 pain clinics. You can look them up on google.
