Can I Take 40 Mg Belsomra With 8 Mg Hydromorphone Tablets (Top voted first)

Updated

Can I take 40mg belsomra with 150mcg fentanyl transdermal patch? And with that pain med I also take 8mg hydromorphone two times daily....I've suffered from insomnia forever since my mid twenties and just dealt with it until my mid thirties...I'm on klonopin but since I'm very ill and bc of being on 80mg oxycontin from only being on 10 mg vicodin I blame pharma company's for aiding in having a high tolerance and being medically addicted. I have lupus and lupus blood clotting disease (world's biggest blood clot survivor), interstitial cystitis, ulcerative colitis with throat to rectum yeast infection, regurgitating, stage 3 kidney failure, rheumatoid arthritis, & also took out my large colon - all of it with no bag :). ANYWAY I beg of you to let me know if I can take belsomra sleep med with my daily pain meds listed in at the beginning of my post. My deepest heartfelt thank you. {edited for privacy}.

Just curious how things are working for you with that combo? I'm starting a new prescription today and I take ER morphine sulfate. My doctor told me to take my Mojo at least 1hr. before taking Belsomra.

If your doctor prescribed it, take it. If still worried talk to pharmacist. It works awesome for me, and I am on a list of meds too.

The FDA does warn about some possible risks associated with combining Belsomra with opiates, mainly due to the overall depressant, and sedative like effects. That doesn't mean they cannot be taken together, but that your doctor should be monitoring you regularly, and you should know to watch for any possible dangerous side effects, such as extreme sedation, passing out, severe dizziness, and trouble breathing. If any of these occur, you should seek immediate medical attention.

You should also only mix them, if your doctor has instructed you to do so, and follow their dosing instructions.

How are you all doing?
