I need to know what these pills are. round like a generic xanax(alprozalam) light green, with a score mark through the middle, and eith an (A) or (R) I believe it is an (A) with the numbers 214 below the (A)... Please help me!!!! ## To Todd, the original poster, there is not Percocet tablet on the market that contains 15mgs of Oxycodone, it is only available with a maximum of 10mgs. They are available as both the name brand and generic, so there are far too many for me to be able to list descriptions of all of them. However, if you post back with more information, such as the markings on the...

Is this a new pill for roxicodone? ## Hello, B! How are you? Yes, this is manufactured by Rhodes Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 15mgs of Oxycodone in a regular release formulation. The FDA lists this medication as being 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? ## This medication absolutely is the worst oxycodone medication I've ever experienced. I've searched everywhere on the internet for this medication & I have found out its been out for several years but it's not even listed as a company by the FDA that makes oxycodone 15mg. I'm in total misery & the side effects of this cheap medicatio...

I just came back from my pain doctor and he said my urine test today and last visit both tested positive for Morphine. And now he won't see me anymore. I have NEVER taken Morphine in my life so this is ridiculously unfair. All I take is what he prescribed me which is Lyrica and Percocet. I have read that Percocet can show up as Morphine but I've taken tons of urine test since starting the Percocet and none of them ever showed that. I have also read that poppy seeds can cause this result. I ate 2 BIG poppyseed bagels just last night, less than 12 hours before the drug test this which was this morning. These are not the ordinary poppyseed bagels either, they are absolutely COVERED in poppyseeds, to the point which you can't even see the bagel itself. It's not an exaggerati...

Hi I have a 5 panel hair drug test coming up in a few weeks. I take 5 tens a day but I'm on prescribed one script of 15 5mg hydros to be taken 3 times a day. That script was from a month ago. Three years ago I got a script of 30 hydro 5 mg to be taken 3 times a day. I'm a temp employee and to go full time you have to take a hair test that the application states goes back 60-90 days. A couple guys at work that take hydros say no matter if you abuse as long as you have a script your ok. Others say its all about your levels. Will I pass? ## A normal NIDA 5 hair drug test panel will not even test for hydrocodone. A 1.5 inch sample, cut at the scalp line, will go back 90 days.The opiates tested for would be codeine, morphine and heroin. Hydrocodone is in the extended opiates panel wh...

How long does it take for percocet to show up in your system. I am taking it a hour before my drug test will it show up in my system that i took it ? ## 'Most likely' yes, it will show up. That depends largely on whether or not you took it on a full stomach. if you did, it may take a while longer than normal to digest through your system. Logically though, if you feel the effects of drug after you took it, then it is in your system already. The major route of oxycodone excretion is in the urine. The effects of oxycodone last up to 4 hours after use. The length of time following drug use for which a positive result may occur is dependent upon several factors including the frequency and amount of usage, metabolic rate, excretion rate, drug half-life, and the drug userâ€...

Is there a over the counter med that looks like a yellow watson 10/325 norco? ## To my knowledge there aren't any OTC medications that look similar, as this particular yellow Norco pill is unique to Watson. If there's any pills that come remotely close, I'd imagine them to be Mucinex DM or Guaifenesin + pseudoephedrine tablets. Do you have any reason to believe you may have received a fake pill from someone? ## No, I want my girl friend off norcos.I think its all in her head.I want something that wont hurt her like a vitiman.After a couple of weeks tell her I switched them and prove its only in her head. Placebo effect. Thanks ## I will begin by stating that regardless of your intentions, it is morally, and legally wrong to willfully switch a persons medication especially th...

I have read various different precautions about using this drug intravenously. Some say that without using a micron filter you run the risk of losing your arm due to a microcrystalline cellulose compound found in the drug, I guess as a tamper prof method. That seems cruel knowing addicts will abuse anything if the possibility it will make them high. they also say this compound is not water soluble so does that mean once water is added that compound would not enter the needle and stay at the bottom? Others say its fine. My other main question is what does the pms in pms-hydromorphone stand for and is it related to that cellulose compound? ## PMS is the manufacturer. It's pharmascience. ## What does the letters PMS- in Meds PMS-Hydromothone mean please!

Run out of methadone last dose I took was yesterday so I've bee without methadone for 36 hours my Q is can I take Vicodin 5mg instead .Thanks. ## Had several back surgeries which went south ... suffer from chronic pain neuropathy broke my both hand and knee recently. Dr is prescribing me klonapin 4mg a day and 40mg og methadone... run out of methadone just took 8 5mg vico is it safe ?? will it work to reduce the pain thanks!! ## Hello, Zulum! How are you? No, it is definitely not safe to take 8 Vicodin, at once. That is far too much Acetaminophen in one dose. Please make sure to inform your doctor, they will likely want to run a liver panel to see if you've done any damage. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such...

I live in Oak Ridge TN have a legit prescription for 60 oxymorphone ER 20 mg. Doctor is within 20 miles of my residence. Does anyone know where I might be able to fill them? ## Unfortunately, there is no directory of pharmacies that have any given medication in stock that I can refer to for you. The only thing you can really do is physically go to them, with the prescription in hand, to see if anyone has it in stock. If you call them, they won't give you an honest answer, because they have no way of knowing if the person on the phone is an actual customer with a need, or a potential thief. 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 ca...

My husband's pain management doctor is wanting to switch him to percocet. He is currently taking hydrocodone 10mg 7x/day. What will that equal out to in percocet? ## Hi Wendy - it looks like your husband will be switching opiate medications since Percocet contains Oxycodone instead of Hydrocodone. Overall it is a stronger medication. According to an Equianalgesic chart, Oxycodone is about 33% stronger than Hydrocodone. So approximately 6.67 mg of Oxycodone is equal in strength to 10 mg of Hydrocodone. My question for you is would you happen to know which version of Percocet he is being prescribed? For example, it can be prescribed in doses containing 5, 7.5, or 10 mg of Oxycodone. So depending on which dosage your husband is being prescribed you can kind of get an idea of how strong...

I want to see a picture of oxcicoden with the letter op and number 30 ## Hello, May! How are you? I'm sorry, but I don't have a picture to post for you, due to copyright reasons. However, I can tell you that Purdue Pharma lists it as being a round, brown tablet with OP impressed on one side and 30 impressed on the other.

I take roxicodone for back, neck & shoulder pain prescribed by my doctor & really wish I never started taking them but I have no other source for relief...mine are blue & small but have a big punch as I'm sure it's why they are so popular with druggies. Anyway my point is if you're thinking of taking these my suggestion is don't even start cause they are a b**** to get off & you can build a tolerance very fast & before you even realize it your hooked on this s***... I'm doing my best to get myself off of them by substituting a full dose with only a half dose & white widow cannabis oil I made with coconut oil & 2 ounces of trimmings from my last harvest.

Oxycontin, Fentanyl, Doctor Shopping, Abuse of pain medications, Chronic acute pain relief, Hillbilly heroin, Fentanyl laced heroin, what will be next?

I placed 2 orders at diff times and both were supposed to be for Percocet. They both were from India. One of them came in a little bag with no packaging. The more recent one came in an actual bubble pack that had a manufacturer on it but no markings on the pills. I'm guessing I've been had. But has anyone else had this problem? ## I also ordered percocet from i dia and it arrived in a bubble pack, no marking on the pills, they leave powder on my hands as they seem to have been shaved down or something. They are oblong white pills with a barely noticable part theu the middle. Sigh* ## I hate to see these web based pharmacies taking advantage of so many people who may truly need this medication. However, at some point I think you have to decide if gambling your money on illegal an...

if yellow norco and pink lortab get wet in same bottle will it turn to a brown powder. is this powder safe to eat and will it still stop pain. ## Definitely not qualified to answer this one... have some opinions, but will be quiet and sit over here... ## Hi curious, These medications are meant to be taken when in their original form (they should not be taken if they have been damaged or tampered with). Since both medications have been mixed together into a powder with water, their individual formulas have been altered and that could potentially make them very unsafe and ineffective. Also, there is no longer a way to measure out the correct dosage since two medications have essentially turned into one. Are there any pills left in the bottle or have they all turned into powder? ## What is...

39 year old male, I've been taking 20mg of OxyContin twice a day for almost a year do to chronic back pain. I am not addicted but rather dependent and I never take more than I'm prescribed. The result of this is my testosterone has tanked to levels that a woman has and I determined that I'm going to quit. My pain doctor said he could wean me down, but I shouldn't have any problems with the low dose I've been taking. I tried to go 24hrs without taking a 20mg and began getting severe chills and kind of achy all over. I've been reading about going cold turkey by mega dosing vitamin C; which is said to be a miracle for relieving WD. My question is, has anyone tried this method? And also how long will it be before the worst of my symptoms pass, considering my dose? I ...
