Why Am I Not Able To Fill My Tramadol And Hydrocodone Together Anymore? (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

Hi, I have been taking 100mg tramadol and hydrocodone 10-325mg for 6years together for chronic pain. I recently tried to fill both my scripts and was told by the pharmacist that I can no longer fill both since tramadol has been classed as a controlled substance that I would have to pick one that I want to take. I am pretty upset. Is there a way around this, I am a nurse and have patients that get multiple narcotic perscriptions at the same time how are they able to do that. Many people are on different types of narcotics at the same time for chronic pain because they work differently I dont see how the government can do this to people.

I am very sorry about the problem that you've run into. It really makes no sense, because there is no regulation restricting someone to just one being prescribed that I'm aware of, it's just how much can be prescribed that's restricted.

I actually think it's due to the changes that are now being made to the prescribing regulations for Hydrocodone, it's being severely restricted.

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.

The best suggestion I can make is that you contact your doctor about prescribing an alternative medication.

Does anyone else have any ideas on this issue?
