Pain Killers That Dont Cause Inflammation Of Pancreas, Kidneys
UpdatedI have been on norco for 3 years. I take up to 5, 10/325 mg tablets. I have recently found out I have an inflammed pancreas. Also, in the past I have had kidney problems. I also take lots of other medications, and I am concerned about my liver, and inflammed pancreas. I want to take an opiate pain killer without acetaminophen, ibprofen, and naproxen because they are bad for your liver. How do I get a drug like that? Why do they put those other otc meds in the pain killer, when it hurts your liver/

Hello, Saree! How are you?
The Acetaminophen and NSAIDs tend to augment the action of the narcotic in some people, so they often get better pain relief from a lower dose of the narcotic.
However, there are many available that do not contain any of them, such as Zohydro, Oxycontin, Roxicodone and Dilaudid. You just need to speak to your doctor about the issue.
The FDA classifies these medications as being narcotic analgesics, so they carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
Is there anything else I can help with?
