I was on a combination of Trileptal and Neurontin for my Atypical Trigeminal Neuralgia pain. I was not having any side effects from the Neurontin, but having problems with the Trileptal (blurred vision and unsteady gate). The doctor wanted to decrease the Trileptal, but having done so in the past, she knew I would have increased pain. I was already taking 2700 mg of Neurontrin and I guess that is the max, so she took me off the Neurontin and put me on 150mg of Lyrica a day, then increased to 300mg/day. I am still having alot of pain, but it has only been 5 days and I am rather impatient. Has anyone heard of Lyrica use for Trigeminal Neuralgia pain? Thanks ## I have been on 900mg Neurontin a day, lots of pain. I had balloon compression. Did not help one bit. Dr now upped my neurontin to ...

can you water hydrocodone iw water to drink it? ## You could do this with any medication that isn't time released, but I doubt it's going to taste very pleasant. It will also probably cause it to enter your blood stream faster, so you would feel the effects much sooner than you would, when you swallow a tablet, so you should use caution if you are going to be driving, since it can cause dizziness and drowsiness, as side effects. There are also liquid formulations available, if you have trouble swallowing the tablets. Have you tried asking your doctor about using them? ## You may disolve it in water if you wish. I have issues with swallowing pills as well, some of them tend to get stuck in my throat, so I often chew mine or disolve them first. If you chew them up or mix them in w...

I have a prescription for Percocet 10.325 90 tablets. However I do not have insurance. what does this cost and do you have coupons for discount? ## Hello, Angela! How are you? I'm sorry, but this site does not manufacture, nor sell any medications or products. It is an information only website. This is a generic and normally, it is fairly inexpensive, but there is currently a shortage, so I am not sure if that may affect the price or not. Learn more Oxycodone details here. 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. Have you tried checking with your local pharmacies? ## 90 percocets with no insurance will be pretty expensive.. it will cost a hundred + dollars ...

Please also help, I need some help trying to get off percocets for good. I have had back surgery now and everytime I try to stop taking the percocets I get really sick. Anything to relieve this sickness. The worst part is the anxiety I get, I feel like my heart is jumping out of my chest. Any help appreciated. Thanks. ## There is a high risk of experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms if a patient discontinues oxycodone (Percocet) abruptly. Therefore therapy should be gradually discontinued rather than abruptly discontinued. It is known to have anxiety and flu like symtoms when stopping Percocet.

It's oval shaped and white and say rp15 ## Hello, Michelle! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Rhodes Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 15mgs of Oxycodone in a regular release formulation. 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?

when I was first prescribed vicodin they were Watson, 349...then later 352 and then 357 and now 363 and 368. What do those numbers mean. The ones I felt that worked best were the 349 and 357 Watson. I may be wrong in the numbers (years have gone by since ) but I think I am right. What is the STRONGEST vicodin made and does COLOR OF PILL have any reference to the quality of the med ? or the number on it. ie: is a 368 stronger then a 357. why are they called LORTAB. when I first heard them called that, instead of vicodin I thought maybe they were ( placebo) to make me THINK they were vicodin but not really. finally! speaking of PLACEBO can doctors and pharmacies give placebo without notifying the patient, can they legally do that? ## Hi, Frenchy! I did explain a lot of this in response to...

My doctors office that was giving me oxycocodone 30mg just closed his office. I live in the Tulsa, Ok area. I am having a hard time finding a doctor that will prescribe them for me. I have degenerative disc disease the Dr.'s I have seen have wrote me perscriptions for oxycotine and even one for opana. But my insurance will not cover them because they are long acting. Please help if you know any doctor I am in so much pain. ## Go see Dr. Adam Wallace at pain management of Tulsa. He listens and will help you. Good luck. ## Hi there, My doctor is retiring. I need a doctor that will prescribe percocet in Toronto. I have been on them for years, they ease the pain and I am able to function, I have no hidden agenda. How do I find a doctor? ## Thank you helper I appreciate the information.

I found this pill that had OP on one side then 60 on other, but when I looked it up for some reason it doesnt match? what you think ## A round, red tablet with an OP on one side and 60 on the other is a 60mg Oxycontin tablet. It contains the narcotic Oxycodone in a time released formulation, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Learn more Oxycontin details here. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Dark red pill no markings small around? Told it was morphine?

How many Norco 10/325 mg would give you 1100 ng/mL? ## From what I could gather, clinical trials note that: "Following a 10 mg oral dose of hydrocodone administered to five adult male subjects, the mean peak concentration was 23.6 ± 5.2 ng/mL. Maximum serum levels were achieved at 1.3 ± 0.3 hours and the half-life was determined to be 3.8 ± 0.3 hours." Unless I'm reading this wrong (which I may be, as I am trying to understand this conversion as well), 1100 ng/mL seems like a very high dose for toxicity. Do you have this medication in both tablet and liquid form? You can learn more about this drug on the page for Acetaminophen + Hydrocodone I hope this helps! If anyone else can enlighten us with a bit more information that would be great! ## ...

My 46 year old mum died 3 weeks ago after taking 600 mg of Lyrica. She had only been taking 300 mg per day out of the 600 mg dose that was recommended by the doctor until the night she died. She was prescribed a permanent repeat prescription of 600 mg daily, due to falling off the end of her bed and hurting her back about 4 months ago. The cause of death has not been established yet, as no reports have yet come back, this is just what I know so far.

G 800 ## There are no 800mg Vicodin tablets. This tablet contains 800mgs of Ibuprofen, the active ingredient in Motrin, used to relieve pain and swelling. It is nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and stomach irritation. Read more: Are there any questions or comments? ## I know back in 2008 after I hurt my back in Iraq . I was on a very high form of Vicodin 500mgs plus. Prescription from military doctor's ibuprofen is considered ranger candy doesn't do anything for pain. Just helps for inflammation.

I am currently on morphine (one every 4-6 hours) for severe stomach pains until i can make an appointment for a scan. I get tired a lot, often makes me groggy and quite weak. Other symptoms i get with morphine are headaches and nausea. The tired part is normal due to the medication being very strong. ## Hello, Khloe! How are you? Yes, those can all be normal side effects of Morphine, as reported by the FDA. You may also experience dizziness, headache and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hello Khloe, Narcotic medications have numerous different effects on people and they also vary how they affect those that take them. It sounds like you haven't taken those types of medications before, or at least not much at all. First off please make sure you're not doing...

I am a father of two young children. I am the sole provider for our family. My wife is a stay at home mom. For the past ten years I have been on oxycodone 30mg due to back surgery. When I switched to another pain management they cut my prescription down and also issued me methadone 10 mg. I lost my doctor recently. I have had to do what is necessary to keep my job or my family would be in real trouble. As we all know the withdrawals are horrible. I have been taking subs and benzos for the past month now. I am down to a quarter a day of the sub. I take 2mg of xanax a day. I really want to stop this vicious cycle of pills. I am really depressed, irritable and impatient. My brain feels like it has been damaged by taking all this medication. I find myself sometimes not being able to spit ou...

Can I take Tylenol p.m with morphine I had a morphine 30 I cut it n to 4ths and took a fourth then waited a hour and took another can I take 2 Tylenol p.m too? ## What formulation of Morphine are you taking? If it is the time released formulation, you should not be cutting it, because that creates the risk of your getting too much of the medication at once, which might result in overdose. The FDA warns that Morphine carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. As to taking it with the Tylenol PM, they can both cause sedation, so you may experience more dizziness and drowsiness than usual, thus it would be best to check with your doctor, before adding it, to make sure it is safe for you to do so. Is t...

Been having sinus issues, possibly related to long term pill pain meds.... As a test, my orthopedist prescribed 120ml of 7.5/325 liquid hydrocodone to see if would help my sinus. Dosage is 6ml every 4 to 6 hours for pain. Was previously taking 5/325 Norco pills 3 times per day. While seemingly helping with my sinus, the liquid isn't helping my pain as much? Trying to find out what the 5/325 pill equivalent to 120ml 7.5/325 liquid would be. I trust my Dr, but it doesn't seem like the dosage is right? ## Hello, Uncle Jim! How are you?

Question 1: I had been going to the SAME Dr. for OVER 14 years. I NEVER ONCE failed a drug test as long as I have been going to him. He retired a few months ago and a different Dr. took his place. The new Dr. told me he WILL give me the SAME medications and treatments that my old Dr. was giving me, BUT I HAVE to pass a drug test first. I said FINE WITH ME. The new Dr. gave me my drug test, did the test right infront of me, once the results came up, he told me my test is FINE, here are my pills, and he gave me the injections. He told me to schedule an appt to come back the following month as I have been doing with my former doctor. 5 days BEFORE my NEXT appt, I received a letter from them telling me I am NOT permitted to come back, I FAILED a drug test and tested positive for heroin, coc...

So I was prescribed 5mg percocet as needed for pain after my wisdom teeth were removed. When i recieved this prescription from the pharmacy the tablets i had recieved looked nothing at all like ive ever know a percocet to be, therefore google to the rescue.... and oh wait there didn't seem to be a match to percocet after searching the web over and over again. So here i am in severe pain with my mouth aching and a bottle of said to be 5mg Percocet sitting in front of me, & I am affraid to rake them at all since they don't appear to be like any percocet 5 mg tab ive ever seen before not yo mention now using color shape, & the pill imprints not even google can identify them.....
