Hydrocodone 10 325 Max Dose

Updated

Have been taking pain pills for past 10 years for back issues. New doctor had me on Morphine extended release and immediately release for 5 months then switched me to 15 mg Oxycodone for 5 weeks after surgery and was taking 15 mg every 6 hours, but last 2 weeks I took 1 every 4 hours. I had been on oxy before and I don't do well with it. Already addicted and wanted to get off it I asked for Hydrocodone. He gave me 10/325 taking every 4 hrs. My withdraws are bad and the pain is back. Nurse called back and said I can't take more than 1 every 4 hrs and to deal with it. What to do? I got myself off Oxycodone before over 3 months of cutting myself back. This is killing me. Please give me advice. Also was told to talk antihistamine and 4 ibuprofen each time. Seems so much other stuff and nothing is killing the pain and with the withdraws....UGH. I did take 2 a couple of times at once and the pain was gone and the withdraws, but still felt kind of nasty. Still felt better than this though. Help me explain to my doctor's office what I need to get me off this stuff without spending hours on top of hours and day after day going through this. Been up all night and so tired, but also too sick to sleep. Thanks for any help.

Hi Tracy,

Sorry to hear about your experience with the Oxycodone and Hydrocodone dilemma. I think there are other options though (such as THC/CBD concentrates from medical marijuana clinics) that many chronic pain patients find useful as an adjunctive therapy to pain meds.

Perhaps this is something you'd want to do additional research on, but I am simply speaking as a witness from first-hand experience that this is one alternative medicine that is developing a better reputation for those seeking additional pain relief. And if you don't want the high that comes with THC, I think you'll find that CBD's (in the right therapeutic doses) can also be quite beneficial on their own.

The following article has more specific details on how these two components of cannabis work to reduce pain: norml.org/library/item/chronic-pain

I hope this helps!

Thanks David for the advice. I will research. Out state has not passed yet to use, but I will see what I can do in the mean time. I have had many people suggest this course. I am sure it is safer than all the stuff I have been on. I will be first in line to vote when my state has the vote. I think we were the first to make it illegal so probably the last to allow it back in sadly. Thanks again for taking the time to write and offer any help.
