I had a random drug test done at work which picked up the tylenol 3 I had taken the night before I cannot find that presription however, i have the one for percocet 5/325 can I get away with sending that one instead? Also, how long will the drug stay detected in the urine they already have? ## Tylenol w/ Codeine can be detected in your urine for up to 2-4 days, and the same with Percocet. However, if they already have a sample from when it was in your system, then to my understanding it's not just going to dissipate a week later from the sample cup, if that's what you're referring to? Because Percocet contains acetaminophen + oxycodone, and Tylenol 3 contains acetaminophen + codeine, I don't see how you'd be able to switch out one for the other. Even though Oxycodone...

can roxonin tablets be taken with paracetomal ## Roxonin contains the active ingredient Loxoprofen, which is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, thus it and the Paracetamol are very similar, so it's generally not advised that you take both of them. Learn more Loxoprofen details here. Learn more Paracetamol details here. Are there any other questions?

its a small light purple circle pill with a a on 1 half an a 215 on the other half ## I'm not aware of a purple tablet with this marking. There is a 30mg Oxycodone tablet that has an A over the number 215, but it is a light blue tablet. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Where was it found/obtained?

Can you take only half of a OP 30 pill? ## No, they are time released formulations of Oxycodone, so cutting it in half could result in too much of the medication being released at once and may cause an overdose. Learn more Oxycontin details here. Are there any other comments or questions?

Im prescribed vic 5s but took a few lortab 10s will it show up diffrent In 5 panel, and if they do Gc test can they tell the diffrence.. And does it matter how much is in my system of vic 5s if prescribed. ## If you're prescribed the Vicodin, then I wouldn't worry about it showing up. You can simply inform the lab of this prior to your drug screening and you should no longer be held accountable for its presence in your system. Because Lortab has the same active ingredients as Vicodin, you may just be in the clear if they decide to test for it. Reason being is that the standard tests typically used for screenings lack the sensitivity to distinguish beyond the basic structures of the drug class vs. the drug name. I hope this advice helps! Good luck!

I take opana 30mg everyday but it is no longer prescribed, as my insurance lapsed when my husband died. I am on probation & have tested negative for it every month until today. Luckily i had an old vicodin bottle with me & convinced her it shows up as the same. I tested positive for oxy. Why would this happen today & never before? ## It really depends on the type of test they use, if they use one of the less expensive, non-certified tests, then they have been known to show random false positives anywhere from 4 to 50% of the time they are done. And generally, one synthetic or semisynthetic narcotic can cause false positives on those types of tests for its relatives. Learn more Opana details here. Thus, there is a chance that it may happen, again. Are there any other question...

Need to know if this is acetaminophen or what, exactly; it was found by a co-worker in the parent's house.... ## There doesn't seem to be a definitive ID on this pill, but I noticed others who were trying to identify this same red capsule and had found it to be Tylenol; I believe the dosage is 500mg, but I don't have enough information to confirm this. Acetaminophen is the active ingredient found in Tylenol, so my finding appears to match what you have mentioned in your description. I hope this helps!

what are the millegrams of hydrocodone and acetemaphine that is in the yellow vicodin and is it the strongest vicodin on the market? ## There are several yellow tablets on the market that contain Acetaminophen and Hydrocodone, since it is also available as a generic. Here's the information on some of them and the dosages: WATSON 853 10/325mgs V 36 01 10/325mgs WATSON 3228 10/750mgs 170 7.5/325mgs Do any of these match the markings on the tablet in question? As you can see, the dosages vary, so I can't tell you if the one you have is the strongest available, or not. It is, however, only available in a maximum of 10mgs of the Hydrocodone. Learn more Vicodin details here.

my 91yr old mum been given liquid morphine 5ml 4 times a day should she be monitored by someone from practice for being on this she lives alone ## How often are they seeing her? They aren't going to send someone out to check on her, if her doctor has just prescribed a medication. It is a narcotic and may cause some side effects, but she should know to stop taking it and call if she has any problems. They should also be seeing her in office about once a month. Learn more Morphine details here. Does she have any problem comprehending and understanding anything at her age? ## I take both Methadone and Morphine. I only use the Morphine for what is known as "Break Out" pain. Methadone is a man made "synthetic" opiate that can last 24 hours, give or take a few hours. At an...

MIX 2 PACKETS OF KOOLAID WITH JUST ENOUGH WATER TO DISOLVE AND SWALLOW IT WITH AN OXY OP THE CITRIC ACID WILL BREAK THE PILL DOWN FASTER BEST IF USED ON AN EMPTY TUMMY ## I can assure everyone that reads this that the new Oxycontin formulation was thoroughly tested by Purdue in various situations, including someone's having a high intake of certain foods and beverages, to ensure it would retain its time released nature, so the only thing I can see this doing would be to make someone gag, due to the awful taste. Medications should always be taken in the manner they are intended to be taken, it is very dangerous to try to break them down and get them to work faster. Are there any other questions or comments? ## Your stomach acid is stronger than the citric acid. If you break it down t...

Can they tell the diffrence between lortab and vic 5s on a gc drug tes ## What type of drug test are you referring to with "gc"? I do know that the standard tests typically used for screenings (used by most employers) lack the sensitivity to distinguish beyond the basic structures of the drug class vs. the drug name; hence the reason why so many patients receive false positives. Then again, there is also specific testing, such as that done by a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer, which has the ability to distinguish the exact substance in question. This type of testing is not initially performed because of cost, but, is often a follow-up option for those facing serious consequences such as a job loss or jail time, due to a false reading. I hope this info helps!

Can't find who carries them ## Hi Casey, In which city or state are you trying to fill your script? Most people having trouble filling their scripts for Oxycodone tend to be based in Florida or Georgia, since they are the states that appear to be most affected by strict drug regulations. If it helps, there are an increasingly large number of threads that have a lot of activity on this topic, that you can browse through in the link below. Sometimes when I read through others posts who have the same problem, I tend to find a good alternative answer to what I'm looking for: /search.asp?q=fill+oxycodone Hope this helps!

My girl is hooked, how do I help her? ## The best thing you can do would be to encourage her to get medical assistance, because it can be a very dangerous addiction to try to beat on her own, even with your help. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Depending on how much she is taking, some of the withdrawals may even be dangerous. Is she getting them legally, via prescription? or off the streets?

Some ENT doctors are ordering Capital with Codeine elixirs for the pediatric post-op tonsillectomy patients. Is there a difference between Capital with Codeine versus Tylenol with Codeine elixirs? I heard it may be that one has alcohol in it? ## Yes, there is a form of alcohol in the Tylenol with Codeine Elixir, but not in the Capital with Codeine.

My medicine has been changed from oxycodone 30 mg with opana 60mg to the oxy 30 with morpine sul 30 mg er** I was wondering will it work as well? ## Oxymorphone / Opana is quite a bit stronger than morphine, so unless your taking alot more morphine pills I can't see how it can. But maybe you will have a good reaction to it. Good luck! ## I agree with Denzidrine, in that every medication can effect each person differently; so the only way to find out is to actually try it and see how it works for you in comparison to what you're used to taking. Keep in mind though that the inactive ingredients in each tablet also play a significant role in how you react to the medication.
