How Long Does Morphine 100 Take To Work

61 Topics Found

For months I have been taking MSER 100mg, and the shape is oblong, color is light blue and 100 is on one side and E658 on the other side. These pills have been working great. My last refill of MSER, the pills were different. they are round, either light brown or gray, 100 on one side and either a M or a W with a square around the letter. These are not effective at all. Has my pharmacy made a mistake? Can you tell me what company manufacture's each of these pills ?and can you tell me what the different ingredients are between the two? There has to be a reason why one would work so good and one seems like a sugar pill. Thank-you very much ## The tablets with the E 658 100 marking are manufactured by Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc. and the ones with the M 100 are manufactured by Mallinckrodt...

I was on morphine sulf. Er 100mg tab. rhodes. Then I got switched to morphine sulf. 100mg er mylan. These upset my stomach why did they change my meds. Like that?.I have back pain, even had serg. The one made by rhodes worked just fine what can I do so my stomach doesn't get up set ? Thanks j.r. ## Hello, Steve! How are you? Since this is a generic medication, it is manufactured by several different companies and whichever one your pharmacy has in stock depends on which company was offering the cheapest price, at the time they needed to restock their supply. Thus, if you're taking a generic medication, you really have to just expect this to happen occasionally. As to it upsetting your stomach, it could be due to there being a different inactive ingredient in it. Have you consult...

ive been on 100mgs of methadone for a year and am unable to get to my clinic next week. i have some 100mg morphine pills from an old prescription. how much morphine should i take per day when ive been used to 100mgs of methadone per day? ## I'm currently on 135mg methadone and missed the clinic today but have to work tonight. How many 30mg morphine tablets would I need to be without withdrawal at work tonight? ## It takes 4-5 30mg extend release tabs to help me. But they last for 8-10 hrs usually. I was on 90 mg of done for about 2 years. Recently started going to the clinic again ## @JD & Bell22, Because no two drugs are created equally, there is no one-size fits all approach to determining proper pain management protocol and drug equivalency between any medications. In regards...

I take suboxone 12/3 mg once a day. Can I take one 100 mg morphine sulphate with it once a day? ## Hi Rob, According to umm.edu, suboxone shouldn't be taken with any opioids (i.e. morphine), since it can block its effects and potentially send you into immediate withdrawals - accompanied by a number of undesirable side effects such as increased anxiety, insomnia, nausea, difficulty breathing, sweating, cramps, etc. Having read that, it sounds to me like the wisest thing to do would probably be to contact your doctor about alternative ways to manage your pain in the event that suboxone 'or' morphine doesn't get the job done on their own. Some feedback I've read in other threads here even recommend trying methadone over suboxone; stating that it works better for their p...

I am trying to get help with my meds. My $10,000 cap for the yr has reached its limit. I take morphine sulfate ir 30 mg. Please reply. Thank you ## I was in two head-on collisions that ruptured my back, vertebrae and my lower lumbar. I've been taking morphine sulfate instant release and morphine sulfate extended-release for at least 5 to 6 years. It works for me. What do I tell the doctor? ## To the original poster, what is your exact question? Are you saying you can no longer afford to get this medication? Have you informed your doctor? There might be assistance programs available to help you. While they are not common with generic medications, there may be some for name brands, but it is really going to depend on what your doctor thinks would be best for you. Can you post back wit...

Please help. My doctor just switched me from 10/325 Norco, 7 daily, to Morphine Sulfate 100mg ER. I am depressed, sleeping & paranoid. What to do? ## Please someone help me. Morphine does not give me the feeling of well being like Hydrocodone did before they began fooling around with it. Hydrocodone now does not relief pain, It is just crap.. I use to love life, cooking,working,people etc, but now on this morphine 100 mg, Three times daily, I feel like crap and no interest in anything, Does anyONE have any advice. Am I taking the morphine wrong? Is there a combination of anything I could talk to my Doctor about. My Doc had to fight with the "insurance company " ???? to get the morphine TID ## The feeling of well being was a side effect that some people experience from these ...

I keep reading that fentanyl is 80% stronger then morphine. However, most people are talking 100 mcg fentanyl patch over 72 hours, so now I wonder what this means? How much morphine totals fentanyl in 3 days? Confusing eh, anybody know?? I am on the 100 mcg patch every 3 days and have 4 mgs hydromorphone every day for back up pain. I don’t like the hydromorphone, I believe it’s making me constipated and I have to take meds for constipation now. I've been on this for over a year. I have stage 4 rectal cancer. I like the fentanyl and it works, but it’s weak when spread out over 3 days. I'm thinking of asking my doctor to let me take one type of opioid instead of two high doses. I’ll leave it up to the doctor but I’ll suggest maybe giving me 75 mcg eve...

Is it just me or has ANYONE else had an issue with Rhodes morphine not working!!?? I've tried a couple different ways to get the most out of these and no matter what I do it ultimately does nothing for my pain. I barely felt like I took some Aspirin or Ibuprofen!! Like REALLY WTF!!!!! It can't just be me I'd like to know if ANYONE else has had this problem. I can't be the only one. Now I remember back in the day I took 2 x 100mg RED Oblong ones and got great relief and that always stuck with me that when the time came and needed to be on a high dose that would be a go to. I've asked my pharmacy to obtain a different brand and they said that's all they could get and they were charging me 260 bucks for 30 of them. So after a few months of getting ripped off I went ...

My question concerns drug conversion. The Fentanyl works well, most of time, for my chronic pain, but my insurance now says I can only get it again in March of 2015. This is still Oct., 2014, so I will be out of patches at end of October. I don't understand this, because just stopping the patches would/will cause terrible withdrawal, because if you are only couple days late, withdrawal starts. This happened also recently as my dr. changed (at my request to try something else)100 mcg. patch to only 15 mg. of morphine ER every 12 hours, because of patches costing almost $400 for one month, which I cannot afford, due to "doughnut hole". The change made be very sick within two days, so I had to go back to patches. I didn't think the 15 mg. extended release morphine was enoug...

I know Fentanyl is supposed to be stronger than Morphine however it does not help me nearly as much! I wish so bad that I could go back to MS Contin TR 100 mg three times a day with Morphine Instant 30 my PRN for break through pain. That worked so much better than Dilaudid or Fentanyl to me but I had to change doctors and now I can't get what works best! This leaves me in bed 90 % of the time! This SUCKS!!! This is not what I became a RN to do!!! ## Hello, Sis! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're in pain. Not every medications works well for everyone that tries it, regardless of how strong they are and your doctor should be aware of that. According to the NIH, it's normal to sometimes have someone that has to try several, before finding one that works best or having ...

My doc has changed my pain meds. I am taking 90 mgs. a day, and have been for 6 months. It doesn't work anymore. (Nerve damage from 5 failed back surgers and scarring from healing attempts.) He put me on 100mgs of MS Contin twice a day. I NEED to know what if anything I need to know about the transition. Scared as it a high dose. ## email me i have a question ## you're suppossed to get 100 mg of morphine to every 10 mg of methadone which means you should get 900 mg a day. Same thing happened to my wife. You need300 mg every 8 hours ## Pip is actually very accurate, Methadone is much stronger than Morphine and, if you've been taking 90mgs of the Methadone a day, you will need 337.5mgs of Morphine in a day to be at an equivalent dose. A twice daily dosing would require around ...

Hello! My name is Mark and I've had heart surgery a week and a half ago. Now, I have norco 10/325 and have been taking them for years. However, my doctors at the hospital had me stop taking norco while inpatient, and have prescribed me morphine 30 er along with tramadol 100mg. A morphine at waking and when going to sleep, and three tramadol doses between. Can I swap the tramadol for my norco? I did so today and haven't felt well. Chills, cold sweats and light fever, but those are all common with heart surgery as it's a rough battle to fight off pneumonia while your lungs heal. So... Instead of taking a norco for my last dose I went back to tramadol to see if it'll work. Am I safe? Can I take morphine and norco? Help please! ## Legitimate people with chronic pain issues a...

Yes, they would consider those to be equivalent, because they are both regular release and intended to treat breakthrough pain, so it's generally thought that both wouldn't be needed.

I have been taking 60mg morphine sulfate er for 10 plus years with 30mg oxycodone for breakthrough pain relief. A friend of mine who also has severe pain is on fentynal patches and I was wondering which one is better? What I am taking now is beginning to not work as well as it use to. Help! ## Fentanyl is the most potent opiate available, it is over 81 times stronger than Morphine. The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, drowsiness, dry mouth, and constipation. However, it depends on which medication works best for you and what your doctor feels is safe for you to try. Are these the only medications you are currently taking? ## Fentanyl 100mcg along with 30mg roxicodone 4 x per day works well. Everybo...

I was on morphine sulfate (both immediate and extended release) for several years. It helped relieve some of my back pain and I didn't have any trouble getting prescriptions for it in MICHIGAN. Moving to Florida last winter, I gave up trying to get Morphine Sulfate. It was possible but difficult to get it I guess But I gave up. An Orthopedic doctor put me on Gabapentin and it has lowered my back pain a lot. I'm on 600mg 3 times a day. I've heard that Gabapentin can have some pretty rough side effects (like swollen face) but so far I haven't had any. My depressed wife is also on Gabapentin (100mg 3 times a day) to calm some extreme body shaking and it has worked very well with no side effects so far. ## Hello, Robert! How are you and your wife doing? I'm glad that thi...

Is 2mg morphine, 60 mg toradol, 4mg zofran and 25 mg phenergan (all injections) given to a 36 y/o female weighing 190lbs a high dosage? ## Got the shots last came home and within two hours it was back I woke up this morning with one again even my eyes and into my cheek hurt . I hurt so bad it's hard to comprehend what others say and I'm n/v and had to call into work(I don't call in). I called my dr he's not there so should I go back to er or just let this pass ## That doesn’t sound like a high dose. I am a 100 lb female and that’s usually what they give me in the ER, though I usually end up needing another dose of morphine before the end. ## Does your doctor have you on a migraine preventative medication? Prevention generally works better than trying to get r...
