I heard of a drug called aleria on TV and want to know if it's pills of inj's. or? How's it dispensed? What's it prescribed for or is it an in-clinic or hospital medication?

I concur- it does sound strange as a pharmacological combo, perhaps it’s down to ratio- I’m not going to be dismissive of those saying they have been on it etc.

Though I do find it odd- and my first class pharmacology was in large part because I had multiple years ‘lab experience’ on my own body. May not be clever, yet it sure gave me an edge to be top of my class. Often what a university med school lecturer terms a complicated piece of schooling is actually dull and well known by most addicts- especially if they’ve been through the recovery process. Also patients who use medications tend to know a lot more about any meds they are on than any doctor does- they can theorise, but usually have no sense of how it feels or the reality of the experiences they prescribe- most do not retain as much info as a mundane patient drug leaflet after qualifying.

Unlikely. For bowel issues and to prevent further issues in cases such as half a bowel removal and resection the safe choice for oral medications is to try Pethadine.

Some people with colitis and chrones disease have surgeries and a lot of pain- they need effective relief, and both pethadine and a different route to deliver morphine such as transdermal patches are often used. Consult a health professional. Also, consider asking for Marcorgol- sachets of help to keep the bowel moving, prevent blockage- probably safer than mixing compounds.

Spot on- and or trademark and copyright. An example is Adrenalin was patented. despite it being a natural part of our body chemistry even med school has to call it epinephrine or nor epinephrine instead. If there’s a copyright issue or many brand names it’s less clunky to make up a name or use one that came went and went out of copyright than saying a range of the new oxy/naloxone combo. If some have been on it- that wouldn’t suprise me. The world is much bigger than the U.S. next to UK, NZ, AU the USA has unbelievably tight drug regulations on pain meds to anyone looking at it from accross the Atlantic

It is called Aleria. It is in fact two different drugs. Oxycodone and nalaxone. But in fact it is called Aleria. The show had never made up any other meds, and they didn't make up this one.

I have seen some Information that I cannot seem to find again that shows a drug that does mix the 2 but is not called Aleria so I will apologise to the Med student as he or she may be half right! Anyhow drugs are bad!! Stay clean people X X x

It is not a made up drug. It is a combination of oxycodone and naloxone. It is made so that it is harder to abuse. If swallowed it reacts as normal. If tampered with, the naloxone is activated and the medication will not work.

Naloxone, blocks opiates from the body right? I am a clean opiate patient and have been for many years. However I do have a naloxone pen so if I were to relapse and overdose a friend or family member can inj. me with that which blocks all opiates from the system for 20 to 30 mins in order to save your life. So I really struggle to believe that a pharmaceutical company would mix naloxone and opioids together? Maybe I am wrong. Sometimes junkies know more than Dr's, sorry med student!

Targiniq ER is a brand name for the naloxone/oxy hybrid. Probably due to confidentiality, and/or discretion, the staff of Nurse Jackie came up with a faux name for a real product. Don't really see what all the fuss is about.

Shouldn't a med student know that there's no such combination of drug available in the US and even if there was that there's no such thing as samples of Schedule II narcotics? They're so tightly controlled that they require a written prescription that can't be refilled so there's no way in hell a drug rep is getting samples of them to give to docs, even with signatures. If you believe I'm incorrect, please provide the brand name as one mentioned above is not available in the US and the other was available but their FDA application was discontinued after being approved less than a year, it's been discontinued since at least March of 2015.

I don't know where med student found his information, but the drug he is describing is actually called Targinact or Targin...more info can be found here but there is nothing on this site that refers to the name Alaria.

How about a link or citation, o wise Med Student?
A little hard to research when one doesn't even know the correct spelling.
