Pain Relief Overview

An analgesic drug, also called simply an analgesic, pain reliever, or painkiller, is any member of the group of drugs used for pain management. Analgesics are conceptually distinct from anesthetics, which temporarily reduce, and in some instances eliminate, sensation, although analgesia and anesthesia are neurophysiologically overlapping and thus various drugs have both analgesic and anesthetic effects. Analgesic choice is also determined by the type of pain: For neuropathic pain, recent rese...

Why isn't Tramadol showing up in my husband's screenings?

My husband is prescribed tramadol, he takes 50mg tablets, 1 pill 4 times daily. But for the last 2 months they said his urine test at the Dr is negative for tramadol. He has taken them every day as prescribed for 2 years as part of his pain regiment for his auto immune diseases. The doctor said if his lab work next month is negative of tramadol again, he will dismiss him as a patient. My husband has 5 auto immune diseases and it took 3 years to get to a doctor who could figure out what was going on and get him on treatments. If he's dismissed, he will lose his biologics treatment for the illness, not just pain relief. Does anyone know why his tramadol is not showing up in the lab work??? I'm at a loss! ## 2 possible reasons...Someone is swapping out his meds with a look-alike or...

Hydromorphone 2mg prescribed

I was prescribed Dilaudid 2mg every 6 hours as needed for pain after being in the hospital for 5 days getting it through an IV every 2 hours as needed.... The pills I was prescribed were 4mg and I cut them in half.... Am I at serious risk if I take a whole pill for severe pain??? I am embarassed to ask my doctor in fear that he will think I am an addict trying to get a cheap high. This is not the case however. I actually am not a fan of taking pills at all, not even tylenol. The pain is almost unbearable. What do I do??? ## 4mgs is not a dangerous dose, though it is really strong and if you aren't used to taking medications, it will probably hit you very hard and you'll experience more of the side effects. Since it is a potent narcotic, they can include: nausea, drowsiness, dizz...

White Oblong Pill IP204

white, oblong, ip 204 imprint ## This contains 10mgs of Oxycodone and 325mgs of Acetaminophen, this is a generic for Percocet. This is an addictive narcotic analgesic. Some of the most common side effects include: drowsiness, nausea, dry mouth and constipation. ## Is generic IP204 percocet as strong as the real percocet? Not this brand, but another generic brand didn't seem as strong since I'd been taking the yellow 10's. Apparently yellow is generic also from my understanding. ## The term addictive in the explaination is not very responsible. It is a drug with a high rate of dependancy but addiction is a state and usually refers to an uncontrollable urge for somethimg plenty of people use this medication without addictive tendancies even if their bodoes become dependant. ##...

Lee's Save The Baby vapor rub

My grandmother, mother, and myself have used Save The Baby on our children's as a warm chest rub. I would put a T-shirt on them. I have also rubbed it on my husband's and my chest over our lung area front and back then wore a T-shirt to bed. No matter how sick with a cold or congestion we were, we would sleep through the night. What was really great about this chest rub is that it never got you cold. I have used Vick Vapor Rub and it makes your chest cold. Four generations of my family have used Save The Baby Vapor Rub and now that I have grandchildren and greatgrandchildren;one of which has croupey nights, I have searched many Pharmacies around and have been unable to find any. Would it be possible to order it from LEE'S Save the Baby vapor rub? ## Hello, Curly! How are you...

what detox can i take to stop my addiction from stilpane

Hi is there a specific product in the market that I can use to stop my stilpane addiction???? ## Hi sherry, From what I've read, Stilpane contains 370mgs of Paracetamol, 185mgs of Meproamate, and 8mgs of Codeine. And if you have been taking them everyday for an extended period of time, there are actually two possible problems you should be aware of. This first is that Codeine is a narcotic, so it can be habit forming and addicting. A sudden cessation of it, in such instances, may cause serious withdrawal effects, such as fever, chills, nausea and vomiting. However, the most concerning ingredient for those with an addiction to the medication, is actually the Paracetamol. Based on my research, long-term use of just regular amounts can still cause liver and kidney damage. That said, it...

Morphine Vs Neurostimulator

Morphine user 145 ER, Norco 10/325 6 per day for a severed ulnar nerve for 23 years. Just had a neurostimulator implanted and weened down so far to 30mg am and 15mg afternoon with prn Norco, 3-5 daily. I'm taking weening slowly but the answer to a lot of the above problems could be solved by use of a neurostimulator. ## I am very glad that it's helping you, and reducing your dependence on the medications, however, as with everything else, it isn't viable for everyone that's in pain, and it doesn't work for everyone that tries it. Ref: Deep Brain Stimulation Information The FDA warns that opiates, such as Morphine, and Norco, carry the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth.

which companies manufacture roxycodon

I have permanent nerve damage in my right leg. The government seem hell bent on outlawing it. Could one of the drug companies help with cost. I'm on social security and can't afford to pay for it. My Dr. is happy to write a prescription. I take 30 mg.s daily. ## Since it is available as a generic, there are currently no programs offering assistance with Roxicodone. To get a lower price, you can compare prices from your local pharmacies, or use a discount card, such as GoodRx. The FDA warns that Oxycodone carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. Ref: Oxycodone Information Do you have insurance?
