Roxicodone Forums (Page 8)

I go to a completely different doctor who is in a different medical practice than my boyfriends doctor. my boyfriend was in a severe work related accident that changed his physical body for life, technically he would be considered disabled, handicapped , how ever you'd want to word it, I would just to prefer not to say what his specific injury is. what I will say about the accident, if 20,000 tons of steel is thrown into you with a crane, it will cause some severe permanent changes to your life. needless to say my bf has crippling chronic pain without his medications. for 5 years he has been prescribed 240 roxi 30s per month we had to move to a new state so he had to find a new doctor rgt off the bat the new doctor refused to give him the amount he has been on for years and took him...

Does anyone know the difference between Roxicontin (Roxycontin) and Oxycontin? ## The correct drug names are Oxycontin and Roxicodone, they both contain the narcotic Oxycodone, but Oxycontin is an extended release formulation that is taken every 12 hours and Roxicodone is a regular release formulation. ## As far as ROXYCONTIN or ROXICODONE, what are the different milligrams that are available? I know of 15 & 30. Is there a 80 milligram ROXICONTIN? ## Do oxycontin and roxicontin come up as the same substance on a U/A? ## Yes, Jen, since they both contain the narcotic Oxycodone, they will both come up as an opiate on a drug panel. Oliver, no, there is no 80mgs of Roxicodone, it is only available 5mgs, 15mgs and 30mg tablets. ## Is the round light blue pill with M on front and scored o...

whats the differance? and why do i feel so more from a roxy 30 then i do a dilota 8o ## Roxicodone contains the active ingredient Oxycodone and Dilaudid contains the active ingredient Hydromorphone. Both are narcotic analgesics, but they are different. Learn more Roxicodone details here. Learn more Dilaudid details here. They both have the potential to be habit forming and may cause similar side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. And one may just work better for you than the other. That is completely normal and that's why there are usually several medications available in any given therapeutic class, everyone is different, so what works great for one person may not work well for another. Is there anything else I can help with?

I fell 94 feet and broke my back in 7 places my Dr prescribes me roxicodone 30mg 205 quantity monthly but I can not find a pharmacy near Houston TX or surrounding areas to fill can someone help ## Hello, Shane! How are you? With that quantity, I have to tell you that you're most likely not going to find a pharmacy that will fill it, anywhere. Not only does prescribing 205 of them a month exceed the maxim daily dosing quantity limit, but it doesn't even average out to a regular daily amount, because dividing it by 30 comes out to 6.833333….. Unless someone is suffering from pain due to a life-threatening condition, such as cancer, the pharmacy can only fill for the maximum daily dosing amount and when it comes to the regular release Roxicodone and it's generics, that wo...

They use for what kind of pain ## Roxicodone contains the active ingredient Oxycodone, which is a very potent narcotic that's usually only used for severe or chronic pain, due to its highly habit forming potential. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Since it is available as both a generic and a name brand, I can't post pictures of all of the available tablets. Is there anything else I can help with?

I am on numerous other medications also so those will show up also, but I don't take the roxicodone as much as I should, I take more as times and less at times, sometimes I have some left at the end of the rx and sometimes I run out, but my Dr will stop my Rx completely if I don't pee the correct amount. I don't sell my meds, I just take more sometimes and less sometimes. I have a botched neck surgery, I don't take anything that is not rx'd to me. PLEASE help ASAP, my appt is tomorrow.

Which is stronger oxycontin sr 15mg ter or Oxycodone hcl 10mg ## The 15mg dosage would be stronger, since you'd be getting a higher amount. However, from the information in your post. how they work for someone may be different, because of the difference in the formulation. Oxycontin is a time released formulation that is designed to slowly release that 15mgs over a period of 12 hours. The other would be a regular release formulation that releases all of the medication, at once, within 15 to 20 minutes of taking it. Learn more Oxycodone details here.

For those of you wanting to get off percocets or oxycodone I suggest you inquire about soboxin. I asked my pharmacist and he was adiment about it's ability and highly recommended that I talk to my pain management doctor. I have spinal (everything and after 4 surgeries I am just so tired of the pain as well as I'm tiredn of taking percocets or oxycodones. Ask your pharmacist about suboxin. They truely work and some say not for the pain, but I know 1st hand they will work for pain as well as keep the withdrawals away as you wean yourself away from the opiates. p.s. they have non tablet form which dissolves under your tongue.. --- No withdrawals from the oxy crap. ## Hi dennis, Thank you so much for providing this information. I'll provide some additional information in regards...

I am trying to find a pharmacy in Long Beach, California where I can fill my prescription for Roxicodone elixir. ## HI, Robert! Sorry that you're having trouble finding it. There is no central database that lists what pharmacy has any given medication in stock, such information would be dynamic and tough to keep updated if someone were to try it. However, one thing you can try is asking if they can order it in for you. Alternatively, if you are just calling them, rather than going in, that may be why you aren't finding it. When you call, most will just tell you that they don't carry any controlled substance, because they don't know if the person on the phone is a legitimate customer with a need, or a potential thief. Thus, the only way to get a real answer is by physical...

I am a chronic pain patient and like many people I am having an IMPOSSIBLE time filling them. I used to use a mail service and they won't fill "controlled substances" by mail any longer. I have tried dozens of pharmacies and they all are always "out"....(sure). I recently switched to dilaudid but it isn't the same. I am unable to get up and do things like I used to. Does ANYone have any helpful suggestions? Sign me "STUCK in FL"....and thanks in advance. ## Have you considered the option of online pharmacies here in the U.S.? There are legitimate ones that require proof of prescription during the order process, but it may be worth a shot if no one around you has what you need. I'll go ahead and post this information below: To find out if an online pha...

I found a pill that's small, round and blue(blur coating it seems) there a capital R on one side and a 30 on the other-I can't find this thing ANYWHERE! I was told its a roxy-codone but from the UK-Cam anyone help me?? ## I'm sorry, but I can't find anything on it, either. If it is from the UK, then that would most likely explain why, since their imprints aren't logged with the U.S. FDA in the standard databases. The best thing to do is to just properly dispose of it. Does anyone else recognize this tablet? ## If you found the pill...Google its description. If you cannot find anything there, take it to your pharmacy. Are you concerned your child/friend/spouse may be taking them? If not, just throw it away. ## Dude I am having the same issue. Light blue pill with a ca...

Wondering if roxicodone 10mg pink pill marking of pill is np on one side & 12 on other side have acetaminophen in it? ## Hi, Danny! No, the tablet with the NP 12 marking just contains 10mgs of Oxycodone in a regular release formulation, which is a generic for Roxicodone. The brand names for those with Acetaminophen would be Roxicet, Percocet and Endocet. It is a potent narcotic analgesic, so it does have the potential to be habit forming and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, constipation and dry mouth.

of 10-11-12 roxy 30s r no good the fda has cut them thay will make you have with drows every day if you take them ## I'm sorry, but I believe you have some misinformation here. The FDA has done nothing to the existing Roxicodone, or its generics on the market in any dosage. They are still the same as they have always been. Learn more Oxycodone details here. Purdue has changed the Oxycontin formulation, but even it doesn't contain anything that will make a person go into withdrawals. Where did you get such information? ## thats what you think look it up the fda has pulled all opiods in february 2012 said they made them to big or to strong and replaced them in all drugstore's to me i think they r like methodone iv bin takeing them for 4 year's. now ther weak. ## No, bandit...

Small white round pill. M line through the middle. on the same side 10. Nothing on the other side. was told it was a generic roxy 30mg. ## Can you please double check the imprint? I'm not finding anything with the M and 10 on the same side. There is no 30mg Roxicodone with that marking, nor any other Oxycodone tablets that I can find. Does anyone else recognize this?

my friend gave me a teal colored capsule with no imprints and said it was a Roxy ## Based on my research Roxicodone's dosage forms do not come in teal blue capsules or any capsule for that matter. However there is a conspiracy going around throughout various forums on Google, stating that its generic equivalent (oxycodone) comes in an unmarked blue capsule. This would only be the case if the pill was either foreign or made in a home lab and sold on the street; since the FDA requires that all prescription drugs have a unique imprint to identify them by. Personally, I wouldn't trust an unmarked pill. It could literally be anything. Do you know where or who your friend got them from? ## Ive heard that neurontin helps withdrawal symtoms coming off of opiates like oxycontin and roxyc...

I have had a bad spinal injury since 2009. I constantly suffer in pain everyday. I have good days and bad days basically some where the pain is more tolerable then others. I have several ruptured discs in my lower back as well as nerve damage and found out last summer I also have damage to a few vertebrae in my TSpine now as well. An also have arthritis in my spine. I also have severe degenerative disc disease. I have gotten many epidural cortizone shots over the years. My problem is I have a very low threshold for pain. I need spinal fusion surgery, a discetomy and a laminecotmy. However I have gone to see several spine surgeons for opinions and the one that came the most highly recommended refuses to do surgery as he told me it is very risky and there is a high risk of my being in wor...

Friend taking roxicodone with valium, tizanidine and neurontin. Could he be in danger? ## Have they all been prescribed by his doctor? It's possible to overdose on any medication and combinations can be especially dangerous. However, doctors will usually take that under careful consideration to help treat the person as safely as possible. They may make special adjustments to the dosage and should be monitoring the patient with regular appointments. ## Roxicodone and Valium, Xanax, etc. (benzodiazepines) are especially dangerous when taken together. They both can cause severe drowsiness and cause the respiratory center in the brain to shut down if taken in large doses together. Hopefully this person is taking what has been prescribed by his dr and is not dosing himself with and whene...

What drug interactions should avoid if taking Roxicodone? ## In regards to this, to provide anyone with specific information, you would need to post and include the specific medications you are asking about, such as those that you take regularly either over the counter or by prescription. And with this one, since it is a narcotic that can cause depression of the central nervous system, you need to be very cautious when taking any other medications that may also cause CNS depression, such as other narcotics and Benzodiazepines. Depressing it too far could cause coma or be fatal. Are there any questions or comments? Learn more Roxicodone details here.
