I just moved to stella MO near Joplin, i dont know the area well, but my oldest son has MD and spinal rods put in his back, he has been in a wheelchair since 3 years old, he is grown now, but i dont know where to take him, he is on lortab, soma and xanax along with many other non narcotics pills. Does anyone know where i can take him and they will not treat him like a pill head, and that would take his insurance, he is on SSI Thanks a worried mom ## Put, Missouri HealthNet Provider Search, in your search bar. Be sure to call and verify that a dr does accept medicaid. You also need to contact your sons Health Plan and be sure that the dr is on their plan. There is no guarantee that another dr will treat him with the same meds as his last dr. The new dr should also get a copy of his medic...

I have several physical back,neck,knee,foot issues that cause chronic pain. I have been on pain medications for about 20 years. Yes..I know it sounds like a long time. But I had small kids to raise and a very unsupportive husband. I am at a pain clinic. Recently I asked to be taken off of MS Contin 60mg. twice a day with 3 tablets of 4mg. dilaudid for breakthrough pain. I did take the dilaudid sparingly according to my activity level. Well..they wanted me to try long acting ELAGO in place of the morphine. I feel like the ELAGO does not last 24 hours and I feel like I need to take more 4mg. dilaudid. I also feel like I am getting a rapid heartbeat sometimes. Could you tell me what may be happening to me? I was hoping to not have to take anything other than the ELAGO ER, but it is not the...

I had seven yellow norcos in a bag and left them in the pocket of my pants... put the pants in washer for a few min. They are still yellow an only desolved a lil. Will they still work??? ## From your description, I would probably encourage you to toss them for one good reason; and that's because you probably don't want to ingest any residue from whatever laundry detergent you used at the time. If it were not for that, IMHO, they might've still been fine to take, but may be noticeably less potent from having been partially dissolved. I hope this helps!

I received a call that my oxycodone was ready for pick up at Rite Aid and once I got there the pharm tech had told me that it was out of stock and there wasn't anything they could do or substitute it with when I had asked, "I've taken this medication for years and never had this happen, do you know when you'll be in stock?" The pharm tech replied, "I don't know when they will come in, it usually takes at least two weeks anyway and there isn't anything I can do for you, you can have your prescription back" and gave me my prescription and told me to try elsewhere because she was too busy to call other Rite Aids. I was shocked. I took my prescription to Walgreens and they were also out of stock but in between customers the pharm tech called all Walgreens...

Im from toronto n got a 80mg green oxy with 80 on one side and a sigle p on othet! If this a real 80? ## need pain meds for herniated disk ## Hi Frnk, The closest match I've been able to locate is Oxycontin (80 mg). It is a round green pill with the imprint '80' on one side and 'OP' on the other. Oxycodone is the active ingredient in Oxycontin; Oxycodone is a semi-synthetic opioid synthesized from poppy-derived thebaine. It is a narcotic analgesic generally indicated for relief of moderate to severe pain. It is manufactured by Purdue Pharma and has a National Drug Code of 59011-0480. Maybe the O on your pill got smudged off? Does it look as if it has been tampered with? You can learn more about this drug on the page for OxyContin Details ## It is real. Its a new Cana...

I had one operation each year for the past 4 years for anal carcinoma in situ. The skin in very thin and painful. What would you suggest to make the skin "thicker"? I take Lyrica 75mg twice a day for Fibro\severe nerve pain in my legs. I also use Valium and Stilpain on and off. I also take Dormonoct 2mg at night. I am crazy with pain at times. I am not sure if the combination of pills are good. Thank you

I take 8 - 30mg Codeine daily, put some days need a bit more. I have some Hydrocodone 5/ace 500. can I add one or two of these, or take additional Codeine ## You can take 60 mg of Codeine every 4 hrs. But, if they contain 500 mg of tylenol instead of 325 mg, you can only take 2 every 6 hrs due to the high amount of tylenol. Hydrocodone is stronger that Codeine, so you may want to take the hydrocodone only instead.

Would a physician prescribe 800 mg ibuprofen to nursing mother knowingly? Infant 3 mos. Rosa ## Hello, Rosa! How are you? Yes, Ibuprofen can safely be taken by a nursing mother. When a nursing woman requires an NSAID, it is the preferred choice, because it is only secreted in breast milk in very small amounts and infants are usually given much higher doses for fever and teething pain. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation. Is there anything else I can help with?

This pill is marked k/55 not k/56 so i need to know if it is really oxycodone or something else every post i can find says the markings r actually k/56 but they arent they are k/55 ## Hello, Lemon!

Where is the picture? My pill has 503 on other side and 20/25 other side. ## Hello, Doloro! How are you? The tablet with the 5032 20/25 marking contains 25mgs of Hydrochlorothiazide and 20mgs of Lisinopril, which is used to treat high blood pressure. It is not a narcotic of any type. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, hypotension, dry cough and stomach pain. There is also not Oxycodone with a K 25 on 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. What tablet are you asking about?

I have oxy blue M 30 pills and I no longer need them. What is the best way to properly dispose of them? I am in los angeles. {edited for privacy} ## Hello, Hef! How are you? FDA instructions say that they should be mixed with some undesirable substances, such as wet, used coffee grounds, or damp, dirty kitty litter, placed in a sealed container, then disposed of with your normal garbage. Alternatively, you can also take them to your pharmacy and they will dispose of them for you. 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?

I am prescribed Norco 10 mg and I get the V 3601 yellow ones from time to time...so they are hydocodone 10mg and acetaminophen 325 mg not percocet which contain oxycodone ## Hello, Nic! How are you? Yes, you are correct. Thanks for sharing this information to help others. 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.

How are you? I'm very sorry about what you're going through. However, your doctor no longer has a choice in the matter. Due to new regulations that were put in place last year, there are limits on how much of anything they can prescribe for you. The only exceptions are for those suffering...

Can a person request the Watson Percocet by mail? ## Hello, Dee Dee! How are you? If you have a legitimate prescription and it is a real, approved mail order pharmacy, then yes. However, if you are talking about ordering without one, then no, it is illegal to do so. 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.

I have chronic back pain from a major car accident . I have been on the fentanyl. Patch 100 mcq every other day. Yesterday I went to my dr and she told me about some new law our wonderful government has imposed. According to her fentanyl, subutex, and methadone are all in this list of drugs that the government has decided to attack. There is some number associated with each drug and then it's multiplied. By the mg of what ever medicine you are taking if the number is over 200 it puts you in a red class and that is a NoNo. I have been on this for 15 years and my dr just totally refused to write another script staring that she would be in trouble with the government if she continued to write it. She did offer a 2 week supply of a much lesser medication and said I could go I a pain cli...
