I would like to know how many 37.5 mg of tramadol is equal to one norco 10-325mg. ## They aren't comparable and one cannot be converted to the other. Tramadol is derived from an opiate and shares some similar properties, but doesn't actually work the same as one and isn't as effective. Learn more Tramadol details here. However, Norco contains an actual narcotic, Hydrocodone, coupled with Acetaminophen. Learn more Norco details here. Thus, it is actually much stronger and more effective at treating pain. Is there anything else I can help with?

percodan ## I've been on Norco 10/325s x 2, 10/day for 5 yrs and Opana 20mg x 7 = 140mgs for 4 yrs now. Started at 10mg and worked my way up in the past 4 yrs. Now the Norco doesn't do much for the pain anymore nor do I even get a buzz, so my doc switched me to Roxicodone 30mg x 6/day. Am I going to go through withdrawls from the Norco or will the Roxicodone keep me from having them? I've taken Roxicodone before, but I think they were 5s or 15s. Am I going to notice a difference and get high also? Should I do what I've read or atleast try to take a pill and a 1/2hr later blow one? I want to get rid of the pain and also get high. How should I feel and what should I expect? I have to see the doc in a month because of change in meds and get my refill. Also to see if I'm...

When I first started picking up my Lortab 10/500 from my pharmacy, it was in pink tablet form. I asked the pharmacist why it was pink, and was told that it was a generic brand. I was also told that it was not as "effective" (potent-wise) as some other colors 10/500 came in. I asked which color had the most effectiveness for overall pain and was told the purple tablets were. After switching to the purple Lortab 10/500 tablets, I noticed a considerable difference in pain relief and duration. Actually, they look more like a bluish-purple. ## Hi Herman, It is true that generic brands are not as effective as brand name medications, generic medications are allowed (by the FDA) to contain up to 20% more or less of the actual active ingredients. This factor, along with different inactiv...

I sniffed a 10mg opana about 2 hours ago.. i am nervous my parents will be drug testing me sometime this week. i havent done any drugs (besides alcohol) in 4 months. should i drink a lot of water? or does throwing up work, or will that just make me have to drink more water? i also read somewhere it doesnt metabolize for 3 days, does that mean it wont show up for 3 days? it is possible ill be tested tomorrow but i think i can hold it off until 3pm. any suggestions or words of encouragemnt would be greatly appreciated! ## Opana contains the active ingredient Oxymorphone, it is a narcotic, so it can be detectable for approximately 4 to 5 days, after use. There is no precise time frame to give, however, because individual factors are always going to come in to play, such as your own metabol...

dan ## Well, there are several, including the narcotic Dilaudid. Do you know if the information you are seeking is on a narcotic, anti-inflammatory or other type? ## Dan, go to the page Drug Categories, then to Pain Relief, and if you scroll down it will list the medications fitting in that category alphabetically. Just scroll down to the D's and you will see there are a few listed. Hope this helps!

Neurologist I had been treated by for ten yrs moved out of state.I would greatly appreciate any recommendations in Southern Middle Tennessee area that does injections/nerve blocks and medication to control pain before I lose my job missing work because pain to intense.Also prefer one that will not treat you as drug seeker.I take as directed and I just want to live work and maintain a somewhat normal existence. ## Hi! I'm very sorry that you lost such a good doctor. Do you have PCP that you see regularly? If so, it would probably be easiest to have them refer you to a pain management specialist. New regulations were put in place this year regarding what types of doctors can prescribe medications for long-term pain management treatment, how much they can prescribe and etc. Does anyone...

i went to 8 pharmacies to get my monthly refills yesterday . I still have none.. whats going on?? I too live in the tampa area. thanks. ## I'm sorry that you're having so much trouble getting your prescription filled. There was a large distributor who was recently shut down, due to questions over the large amounts of controlled substances they moved each month. This has caused many pharmacies in that area to be short on supply, until such a time as new distributor takes over. Learn more Methadone details here. Is there anything else I can help with?

I'm prescribed oxycodone 10-325 for back problems but have been dealing with a very painful chest ailment for about a month and it has been very painful and all the coughing intensifies my back pain thus i have been taking more than my prescribed dosage. A few days before my scheduled refill I ran out of my oxycodone 10-325 so I took a small piece of an 8mg suboxone this morning to help with the withdrawal symptons. My Dr is making me schedule an appointment to get a refill tomorrow (unexpected) and I am worried that if he tests me he will be able to tell I took suboxone or that I do not have oxycodone in my system, its been 3 days since I took an oxycodone 10-325 but just yesterday I had a Percocet which essentially would b the same but without the Tylenol.... can the Dr tell the d...

I have been on 100mg MS Contin 2X day for close to 10 years. What would be the best substitute and what MG. ## The most likely one to switch to would Oxycontin, it's over one and a half times stronger than Morphine. So, to equal each 100mgs dose of MS Contin, you'd need about 67mgs of Oxycontin. That's not available as an actual dosage, so your doctor would need to adjust accordingly, either a few milligrams higher or lower, depending on your tolerance. Learn more Oxycontin details here. What others have you tried?

What is the FDA.s required limits on Brand Percoet 10-325mg? ## I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand your question. Limits in regards to what? There are limits in place for these types of medications in several respects now, so more information is needed in order to answer your question. Learn more Percocet details here.

I can take Oxycodone 10 mg/325 tylenol and feel fine, but the 5mg/325 make me sooo naseous. Pharmacist said he has no idea. anyone??? ## Do you happen to know if they were manufactured by different companies, since this is a generic for Percocet? Learn more Percocet details here. If you're not sure, you can ask your pharmacist, they should have that information in the computer. They don't have to use the same inactive ingredients, so each manufacturer could be using a different combination of them and it may be one of those that's making you ill.

I hv to chg primary care MD, been on oxycodone + clonazepam a few years, ? an MD (PCP) who will prescribe these or other like meds (w my medical Hx Info) in Central Ma, preferably Leominster/Fitchburg/Worcetser, Central Mass area. I'm used to the pain contract & u.a, pill counts, pain diary.. that don't bother me, as long as my urine tox is ok (as it always was) & I follow what the doc ask of me I'd like to stay on my med routine. Anyone know of an MD who will do this? ## Hi, John! How are you? Under the new regulations, you're most likely not going to be able to get such medications, on a long-term basis, from a PCP. They are restricted now in what they can prescribe, how long they can prescribe it and why they can prescribe it. Thus, you'll need to set up a...

I think the pink specs contain a vomit agent. ## ding dong ding dong bobby ## That's certainly an interesting theory, but no, they are simply used to distinguish the pills from this manufacturer from others that are on the market. How a pill looks is entirely up to their whit and whim. Learn more Vicodin details here. This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Are there any other questions or concerns?

I am using these for pain management, not recreation, so I don't need anything I have to crush up or inject. I am currently on 3 (three) oxycontin pills a day (80mg), This drug has become amazingly expensive, and I am getting to the point to where I cant afford it much longer. It went off patent for a while a year or so ago, but apparently, they reformulated it, and i'm stuck with the name brand drug and the name brand prices. It's killing me. So, I'm looking for something that is a generic drug that I could get that would do the equivalent of the 80 mg oxycontin extended delivery meds that I'm currently on. This is strictly a financial decision, so the drug name you suggest must be a generic form of something that is currently on the market and available. Please do ...

I have been taking my pain meds for over 3 months as prescribed but my recent urine test came back negative. I have had the same problem before with another doctor and they stopped all medicine! I weigh only 88lbs with a very high metabolism rate. Could this have anything to do with these results? I even took to pills right before I went for my visit just to be sure it does show up in my system! What is going on???
