I want to start back taking soboxone, but am afraid after taking 2 days of ultram, that I will go into withdrawals. How long should I wait before taking soboxone?CLCDR ## It is doubtful that you would experience withdrawals, if you have only taken it for 2 days, the Tramadol in it, while being an opioid, it not like other narcotics and is not very potent. What has your doctor advised? ## I've been on suboxone for 3 yrs.now and am finally starting to taper off. About a yr.and a hlf. Ago my mother was spiking my coffee with ultram so i'd flunk my toxes (great mother huh?) not knowing i was still taking my subs. When i found out through the tox results of course i was furious! I knew i hadn't taken any and she had access to some and made my coffee every morn.didn't take muc...

When I grt my script filled (60 opana 30 mg) I am told they only have 20 and if I decide to take them I will not be able to get the rest when the order comes in. ## I have been told the same thing by 2 different pharmacies, It is a federal law that the pharmacie only fill a narcotic prescription once, even if it means being short on your script. The pharmacie will contact your dr and let them know that you are short and your dr will write another script. I know you can find pharmacies that will bend the rules and fill it twice to get you the correct amount. Or you can just go to a different pharmacie that has all 60. Hope this helps ## I believe you have 3days to get the rest of whatever they short you. Check with pharmacy. Supervisor or manager first ## What it really comes down to is ...

I just moved to Daytona Beach/Port Orange FL and need to find a reputable doctor who can work with my doctor to make sure I get the medication I have been taking for over 20 years. I suffer from severe, chronic pain due to Fibromyalgia, DDD, chronic migraines, sciatica, COPD, neck and ankle injury and rheumatoid arthritis without my medication I cannot function. I do NOT want to end up at a pill mill as I take my medication and condition very seriously. My doctor will refer me to the right doctor but cannot tell me which one to choose. I take Oxycontin CL and Dilaudid along with other medication I have no problems getting filled. I have a narcotic contract with my current doctor and want to stay on the same meds but need a Florida doctor to write them, working alongside my doctor. I do ...

I am tired of being treated like a piece of junk and i need pain medicine, not tramadol, since i have cut my middle finger OFF and got 7 stitches in my pinky. I live in des moines IA. Will someone please help me. I berally sleep do to the pain and my family tells me to suck it up. Im tired, pissed and just want help.

First I'll just say that I will try to describe this very difficult situation simply as I can. I'm 54 years old I've done construction and maintenance most of my entire adult life. I had spinal fusion surgery in 2005. I had blown out my back way before 2005 but that was a result of my heavy lifting and going up and down stairs a thousand times a day and just doing heavy construction wheelbarrows full of cement. and just all phases of construction. also I had rotator cuff injury which resulted in not one but two arterial bypass surgeries won the first being a plastic type thing that was installed in my arm elbow and shoulder which year later it failed so either cut my arm off because it's not working anymore or remove the arterial vein in my left leg from my knee to my gr...

I am 46 yrs old and male. I have been battling shoulder pain for nearly 8 years and it has progressively gotten worse over time. My shoulder pops several times a day and nearly puts me on the floor. It is a constant 4-6 of 10 and when it pops goes up to 8+. I recently got insurance so I can seek treatment. Will my doctor give me anything for pain in your opinion, taking into consideration my age etc? Thanks.

Hi there, i have been taking tramadol for depression (i know its wrong but i still take them) and have been taking around 8 - 10 50mg tablets a day, around two weeks ago i overdosed and became very confused, dizzy and felt like i was going to have a seizure, it lasted around half-hour to an hour.....since then if i take more than two a day i again become very confused and feel like a seizure is coming.......i gave them a rest for 5 days (i took none) but on day six again more than a couple tablets it all kicked in again...i dont think its serotonin syndrome as i have no symptons (just tiredness without tramadol).......so simply whats wrong? and how long would you say i have to go without, im gunna try now to give up for weeks rather than days but i dont fancy my chances in giving up com...

I'm prescribed Tramadol but my husband is Not! He had a bad migrane n i gave him one of my tramadol to take and he's on probation and now I'm worried that it will show up on his drug test! So that's why i was wandering if it shows up on probation U.A Drug tests?!! I don't want him getting in trouble for me giving it to him!! Thanx for any help!!! ## YES IT SHOWS UP! Unfortunately I think you just got your husband in trouble!! ## What does it show up as Amber? Seen you saying you got in trouble for it. ## I was on mandatory drug and alcohol testing for one year. that was in Colorado USA 2 years ago. I read it in Wikipedia that it will not show up as an opioid on drug tests . and it not. I ended my probation successfully in 2013. ## He's right. If it's not sent...

I've been taking 30mg of oxyicotin for the last 30days and I've been with a loose bowel and leg pain and not to mention the pain I've been experiencing in my head and neck while taking this new lower dosage! My question is as follows what's missing from the 30mg oxyicotin? I've been very uncomfortable for a month in which seems like 2 months,I'm so upset with my pain management doctor, I thought she had my best interest,however im so wrong!!! ## Hello, Dana! How are you? If your taking a lower dosage, as you mentioned in your post, then you are most likely experiencing withdrawal symptoms and rebound pain. That is completely, normal, if your dose is abruptly lowered. It will take awhile, for things to settle down and for you to feel better. What dosage were you t...

Please tell me if this is norco 10/325 ## If it's white football shaped with pointed ends, it's 10/325. If it's small white oblong shaped, it's 7.5/325. ## Hello, Elma! How are you? I just want to chime in here to ensure that people receive the correct information. Not all generic Norco tablets match that description and not all white, oval tablets that match those descriptions are generics for Norco. As to the tablet in question, it is manufactured by Aurolife Pharma and they list it as containing 10mgs of Hydrocodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. 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...

I have had 4 steroid injections for sciatic back pain with no relief. I have tried acupuncture to no avail and am now trying the Hydrocodone but am concerned it may be addictive. What signs should I be aware of when taking this medication every day? ## Hello, Maxine! How are you? Yes, 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. I think it will best help you, if I explain how/why addiction happens. Narcotics can cause a high feeling and energy, in some people that take them, but since those are just side effects, these symptoms eventually wear off, as their bodies become used to the medication. Thus, they have to keep taking more an mo...

I have a white pill with RP 30, and somebody told me they where Roxi 30s is this true? ## Hello, Joe! How are you? Yes, this tablet is manufactured by Rhodes Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 30mgs of Oxycodone, a generic for Roxicodone. 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.

hi I was recently diagnosed with cirosis of the liver and my dr wants me to stop takeing anything the has acetaminophen is there anything I would be able to take that dose not have it in it. my pain dr prescribes me oxycodone with acetaminophine and now I have to stop takeing this medicine so I would like to know what I can be prescribed instead of that ## Hello, Haylo! How are you? I'm sorry about your diagnosis. Yes, Oxycodone is available without the Acetaminophen. There are also other options, such as Morphine, Dilaudid and Opana. 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.

I have fibromyalgia and my het my back burning particularly when lay down to sleep. When I take Neurobion my pain increase dramatically and just let me cry as it becomes deep annoying not even telieved by paracetamol or Brufen... Any report of this?

I have been off lartab since Dec 2011 am I clean now from that..and I have anxiety disorder at times will take Xanax once or twice a week I took my kolnpin last night..all medications given by my doctor I need this job will it show up on a panel 1 test ## The Hydrocodone in Lortab is generally only detectable for approximately 4 to 5 days, after last dosing. Benzodiazepines, such as the Xanax and Klonopin can be detectable for up to 6 weeks, so they may be detected, however, if you have a prescription for them, then you should just inform them of that, when you go in for the test. ## I would suspect both the xanax and klonopin to show up. However with prescriptions it should not matter. Even with the Lortab, I know you haven't taken any in months and they will not show up, but depen...

I came across some orange/peachy colored tablets with Mylan 345 one side and nothing except a line, groove across the other side. What is it? Oxycontin mixed with acetametaphine 5 mg or 5 mg of oxycodne, or zanax. O ne other point of interest the pill is made by Mylan which is qwritten on one side along with 345. What drug are these? ## THIS IS NOT OXYCODONE NOR ANY TYPE OF NARCOTIC! This is Diazepam 5mgs, a generic for Valium. This is a Benzodiazepine used to slow down the central nervous system to alleviate anxiety and other nervous conditions. ## i believe its a generic brand of xanax my mom takes those ## hi i wanned to know if mylan 345 its same is oxycodon or vics?

let me know how safe it is 75 year old women having severe hip pain the doctor has prescribed it to be taken one at bed time what happens if it is is topped after 10 days ## Neugaba contains the active ingredient Pregabalin, this is an anticonvulsant that has been proven to help with certain types of nerve pain. Side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. If it was only taken for 10 days, there will not be much of an effect from stopping it, since this is not a very long period of time.

Sixty five and just got the mandatory Medicare but also have a PPO since March. My previous plan, an HMO would only provide me with 40 Vicodin a month for my daily back pain which includes scoliosis, spurs, two very degenerated discs, annular tear, sciatica and some other issues if can't even remember. I've had the epidural several times with minor relief, PT, neurontin, tramadol (does zip). After the big conspiracy by the FDA was enacted in Nov, I was cut off with no referral. I know that some people abuse their pain meds, but 40 a month? Come on. They even cut my friend off that has severe MS all because of this FDA thing. I was still hurting rationing 40 pills a month. My primary told me that Americans are too dependent on pain meds. She said that in her country of Paraguay p...

If I take a Norco (hydrocodone) and a Lortab (hydrocodone) will a 5 panel drug screen be able to distingish the difference? ## The screen roll pick up hydrocodone. Be Sure to inform tester you are taking BOTH DRUGS and why you are taking them. What do you take both? Just curious ... ## I take Lortab for Chronic pain however I had a Norco from some time back and took it and now I worry that it could distingish on a drug screening and I am only prescribed the lortab. I guess it wont matter ## Since they both contain Hydrocodone, as the active narcotic, they would both show up as such on standard drug tests. Since this is a narcotic, it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, constipation and dry mouth. Learn more: Are there any other questions or comments? ## I apologize for mi...
