I had filled my regular oxycodone 30 mg script 2 and a half weeks ago. I have another script that is for oxycodone 10mg. In NJ is it going to be a problem to get it filled? They are different strengths but I don't want it to be an issue. ## There's a new pharmacy in Kearny NJ that said they guarantee to be able to fill any and all prescriptions. Care Fast Pharmacy 124 Schuyler Ave. Kearny NJ 07032 201-991-2569 ## I don't know about jersey I'm in pa. But as long as the script is written differently it shouldn't be a problem as long as UR insurance covers it if u have ins I take another drug for narcolepsy and my ins would only pay for three 200 mg pills a day but my Dr wants me on 4 pills so he writes 2 RX One for 200mg 3 a day and one for 100 mg 2 a day to make up fo...

These are the first ones ever I have seen from Pars Pharmacy and they are the lowest quality I have ever had to use. I have been taking norco daily for pain since 2004. I have never complained before about Generic medicine quality but this drug wears off at 2 hours if it even starts to work at all. I reported the pills to FAERS because they feel literally like a placebo. I have also reported this to my Pharmacy, pharmacy manager, the CVS Headquarters was notified and District Manager was notified, my Physician was notified and I saw him a week ago. We had a long discussion. He gave me a new prescription and told me go to a different pharmacy but even talking to pharmacies to learn what kind of Norco they ordered is like almost pulling teeth. The quality of Pars is low quality and very l...

I have been lifting weights since I have been a teenager. I have anxiety and depression issues and I am working out to redirect my stress into healthier activities. The problem is that over the year I have developed a problem with arthritis and lower back pains. The last thing I want to do is quit or be on medication for anxiety and depression because my muscles are hurting. For the time being until I have to give it up one day, I use Absorbine Jr pain relieving liquid for my hands and their ultra strength back patch for pain for the lower back. It gives me fast relief and allows me to continue to do what I love. I know it's only a temporary solution and eventually I need to find something that is less physical to enjoy. It's a right now solution, and it really helps. I would su...

I have stage 3 lung cancer and i am prescribed oxycodone 30mg. My doc did not put a fill by date on my prescription. May I fill early? ## Just because he didn't put that date on there, doesn't change when you can have it filled. Pharmacies keep track of the days supply each prescription should provide and it is very strict, when it comes to controlled substances. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. I am very sorry about your lung cancer. If your current dosing isn't handling your pain, you should speak to your doctor, you are among those on the exceptions list who can be prescribed more. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I have had my ...

Can someone please help me find the Brand Roxicodone for my chornic pain. Have found out that the binders in the generic pills are causing me health problems. My pain Dr. has written my script for Roxicodone, but I cannot find a Pharmacy in Colorado Springs, CO that has them. I take the 30mg size pill. Can anyone help me?

I chewed ibuprofen and it made my mouth burn and now my stomach isnt feeling very good. Was it bad for me to chew it instead of swallow it? ## Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and these are well known to cause irritation and/or damage to the delicate lining of the mouth, stomach and esophagus. That's why they are distributed as coated tablets and the instructions usually direct you to swallow them whole and not to crush or chew them. So, yes, it was a bad idea. Even with the coating on them, NSAIDs can cause or irritate conditions, such as heartburn, GERD, ulcers and gastritis. Are there any other questions? ## I chew it and i didn't hurt me, is it different for other people or something? my headaches go away faster... ## i can't swallow pills, so, i chewed up a...

My son takes 2 to 3 combiflam every month for his headache since he was 9yrs old. Now he is 16. Is it safe? He gets relief by this combination. ## Long term use can create some risks, according to the NIH, which may include liver damage, liver failure, stomach ulceration, increased risk of bleeding, and fluid retention. Is he on any other medications? Is his doctor aware that he is taking this medication? Only 2 to 3 a month isn't a lot. ## My wife's menstruation pain is severe. Can she take cambiflam? What dosage do you recommend? ## My mom has IBS. She has been suffering from stomach pain since last night. Can I give her Combiflam for pain relief?

I found a couple pills in my boyfriends cig pack he is a recoverying drug addict as id like to think. no markings half white Nd half dark red so not sure what it can be. ## Hello, Veronica! How are you? I'm sorry, but without any markings, it's going to be difficult to narrow down what these are, however, I'll keep looking and post back, when I have information for you. All prescription medications have to have markings, so these are most likely and over the counter medication of some type. Does anyone else recognize these? ## OxyContin and acetaminophen. Most likely 5 mg oxy and 500 aceta But can be higher dosage. ## I too have bought them. They are compounded dilaudid 8 mg ## I have a red and white capsule,it is support to be a 8 mg dilaudid? I have never seen them in this...

I take this for fibro and back pain (had 2 back surgeries) also have lot of nerve pain. It only takes the edge off. I can’t imagine what it would be like to get some real relief from this pain. I don’t look like anything is wrong with me. My skin and muscles hurt too. At my age of almost 78 I doubt anything else will be done but it is so depressing that I can’t do much at all because of pain. ## I am so very sorry that you are suffering so much. What type of doctor are you seeing for your pain? You might be better off seeing a pain management specialists, as they are specially trained to help with pain, and they will also know how your age may affect any medications that you may take. Oxycodone is an opioid that carries the risk of being habit forming, and the FDA list...

i had found some oxycontin leftover from my stepmother in-law's bout with cancer, and in a smaller bottle that was in with them. in this bottle i found a bunch of small white round pills, about 1/4 of an inch in diameter. on one side is the number 25, on the other is an uppercase I, slanted slightly. i don't know what these pills are but would love some imput! ## THAT IS NOT OXYCONTIN. A WHITE OXY IS SMALL ROUND ON ONE SIDE IS A OC, OTHER SIDE IS A 10 FOR MILLIGRAMS. PINK ONE, OC ON ONE SIDE, OTHER SIDE A 20, FOR 20 MILLIGRAMS. THEN THEY SKIP TO 40mg.ETC. ETC. THEY ARE MADE BY PURDUE PHARM. I CHECKED MY PDR BUT HAD NO LUCK FINDING YOUR PILL SO I CANNOT SAY. GOOD LUCK. ## And Sheri is incorrect, what she is talking about are just the name brand Oxy's, there have been generics...

it is a pain med from mexico??? ## Afriend of mine just returned from Mexio after having her teeth pulled and dentures made. The Dr. gave her Dorixina for pain and we were wondering, 1. what is in it 2. is there any equivilent here in the U.S. if so , What is it?? ## I was given Dorixina by an MD and relative in Colombia for migraines. I just found info in spanish on the web: it is a non-narcotic analgesic with no side-effects, and can be used with various types of pain (not just migraines). It is a much better choice than hydrocodone/codeine type meds which I have had to take a lot, so I'm very glad to find out about this although apparently it's not available in the US (no doubt for BIG PHARM reasons, since my sample is produced by Roemmers, in Venezuela). From what I've r...

I am a 35 year old woman with 3 children and a husband. None of which know I have been addicted to Oxycodone for the past 3 years. I'm within the 20hr mark of quitting, feeling absolutely horrible.

I think I have strep throut - my daughter has it and now I am feeling sick - I have left over Touro LA Caplet Sa Dar and I have left over Hydromet - from the last time I was sick - can I take either of these? My daughter was given amoxilinine - I am uninsured so would prefer not having to pay for more drugs ## Strep throat is caused by a bacterial infection, so it usually requires an antibiotic, and neither of the medications you mentioned contain antibiotics, thus it would be best to see your doctor for a proper diagnosis, and treatment, if necessary. Have you experienced any other symptoms, such as pain when swallowing, swollen lymph nodes, fever, and body aches? Antibiotics may cause side effects, such as nausea, headache, nonallergic skin rash, diarrhea, and dizziness.

I filled the prescription as I have done for the last several years. Got a yellow tablet with 10 98 on one side and a V on the other. It does not work. I took 3 tablets in one hour (usual dose is one tablet) with no results. Could have been taking water. Label shows it to be from PAR P company. Is this fake or what? ## Is the marking possibly 3601 V? If so, the tablet contains 10mgs of Hydrocodone, and 325mgs of Acetaminophen. NDC: 00603-3887 This is an opioid analgesic that carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. So no, it is not fake. However, if you have been taking the same dose for years, your body may have become used to it, so it may not work as well for you, anymore. Have you informed...

My 13 pound dog takes 1/2 of a 5mg/1.5mg hydrocodone pill every 8 hours to control coughing. However, in taking her other pills, I accidentally included another 1/2 of a 5mg/1.5mg after she had one 4 hours ago. Is this cause for the panic and alarm I'm feeling? ## You should call your vet and tell them what happened, they will be best able to asses whether or not there is any danger to your dog, and if possible treatment is required. While we love dogs, and have two small pups ourselves, I am nowhere near as knowledgeable about the use of medication in canines as I am about medication usage in people, unfortunately. I do, however, know that it can cause some of the same side effects, and overdose effects in dogs, that it does in humans, so you should watch for severe lethargy, drows...

I have been receiving generic dilaudid 2 mg which were round white pills with M on one side and 2 on the other. I just filled my dilaudid which came from Med-Fast and the pill is a salmon-orange color with a P and a 2 on them, but nowhere does it say generic for dilaudid. After taking the first pill, I was very very itchy. Could this be a different generic drug? Oh, by the way there was a RED STICKER that said - DO NOT USE BEYOND 9/30/2016. I called the pharmacy and they said it is okay to take. I'm concerned. I have many allergies and with this dilaudid I was getting I did not have any side effects. ## Hello, Rose! How are you? The pharmacy doesn't actually have to list on the label that it is a generic for any particular name brand, though they should make sure that you are aw...

Hi. I am type 1 diabetic and broke my leg above my ankle 8 months ago. I'm 66 years old. Meds I use are: Tramahexal, Panamor, Epleptin, Myprodol, Adco dol. I suffer with bad headaches and severe leg pain due to the bones not growing back properly. This last week I've battled to get some sleep and felt like my body was shaking. Am I taking too many pain killers?

How does chemically treated hair affect a hair test? I took about 4 (no more than 6) tylenol w/ codeine pills. About four weeks later i took a hair test but three days before the test, i permed my hair. ## When the lab gets the hair sample they run it through a chemical wash that washes off all external contaminants. Since a hair test is meant to show consistent use over time it is possible that the small amount you took won't show up. ## If I took 2 xanex and a half of a vicodin will I pass a hair test ## Hi I am not a user but did take 3 or 4 Tylenol 3 the day befor yesterday and may have a hair follicle next month I am about 120 lb and 5”11 I am 28 years old I don’t know if this helps but will I pass my drug test

White oval shaped pill with 281 on one side and blank white on the other. Anyone know what this is? ## Please see below: Imprint Code: 281 Drug/Strength/Manufacturer: Acetaminophen 500mg - Tylenol Ext. St. - Granutec Description: Tablet - White - Oblong ## Acetaminophen is the active ingredient in Tylenol, which is available over the counter, and by prescription, so this is a generic, or store brand. Its typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, and headache. Is there anything I can help with?
