How Oxycodone Make You Feel

i had been taking 10 mg 325, for back pain and left shoulder pain; I have had hardware placed in the back and a ball installed in the left shoulder; they switched me to 15 mg of oxy and it has been hell; tired muscles, huge drymouth, extreme fatigue and a feeling of not wanting to do anything but sleep ## Hello, Richard! How are you? I'm sorry about the way you're feeling. But yes, as listed by the FDA, those are normal side effects for this medication. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. However, things should improve, after a few weeks, once your body gets used to the medication. If they don't, then you should speak to your doctor. Is there a...

What drug should I try because the oxycodone is making me sick? ## Hi Cartel, Sorry to hear about your Oxycodone intolerance. There are a variety of pain medications on the market that you could ask your doctor about trying instead of Oxycodone. However it's important to understand that there's really no way of knowing ahead of time how something else might end up affecting you as well, until you give it a shot and see how you like it. Depending on what your doctor recommends, some other options may include medications like Hydrocodone/Apap, Morphine sulfate, or Hydromorphone. Do you think the sick feeling could be because of a problem with the dosage being too high or perhaps just a side effect of the drug itself?

I filled my Rx at a different pharmacy to save time and received this version of Percocet a333. It's terrible! The regular ones I receive (by a completely different manufacturer than this or Watson) work pretty well. My issue is just worsening so They just aren't effective. Then when I opened this bottle, noticed the texture was different. It was early morning and dark so I took my normal 1/2 so I can go back to sleep. Felt no relief like I normally feel enough to sleep comfortably. Had to double check to make sure I didn't put Tylenol in one of the bottles for travel. Took the other half. Feels as weak as Tylenol in regards to my level of relief (almost none). Took my next full dose at when enough time had passed. Still, very little relief. This isn't the first time this w

I was diagnosed 5 years ago with DDS and at first by back pain was minimal. After a year or so it began to get bad enough for me to see the Dr. every 3 months or so for a prescription of Oxycodone and 800mg Ibuprofen. I have since moved and my Dr I have now told me flat out he would not give me "narcotics". Why do Dr's treat us this way. I have medical records showing my valid medical issue. If anyone can recommend a pain friendly Dr who will not make me feel embarrassed to ask for help, please email me. I live in Avondale AZ ## Have you considered a pain management specialist? That would probably be your best bet to get the help you need, since many general practitioners aren't specially trained in treating pain and are reluctant to prescribe for it. One place you can c...

What other pharmaceuticals make oxycodone 10mg IR besides kvk tech and the ones that have "NP and 12" on the sides. I get headaches as a side effect from these and I'm assuming it's bc of the fillers. I didn't have problems when I used to get 5mg bc there seemed to be more options. I'm thinking I'm going to have to decrease the mg to get a different brand. I don't feel they help at all. Tia ## There are many pharmaceutical companies that make this, far too many to list. The FDA does list headaches as being a possible side effect of Oxycodone, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, constipation, and dry mouth. Which ones are you currently receiving? ## where can i find the fake piller pills for the pink tens for pull counts

I have been changed from 140mgs oxycodone to 40 x 2 mgs Oxycontin. I had so much more pain control with the Oxycodone but doc wants me on a ER medication and one for breakthrough. I feel a huge difference with the Ocycontin, not in a good way. Would like to go back to what I was taking as the relief was superior. The Oxycontin I barely feel any relief. How can that be? BTW, have two herniated disc, one completely gone so bone on bone, spinal stenosis at two levels. Sciatica. Again with all the new laws I feel like I have to be grateful to get anything? 52 years old, and docs always thinking you're looking for something. The history is clear, I just want relief, but feel asking for it makes them think your a "seeker". ## Hello, Linette! How are you doing? I'm sorry, but I...

Day 3 and the devil is still just sitting on my shoulder....I can't beleive how well I am actually feeling...Am I kidding myself, or could the worst still come? Over the last 7 years, I have been on morphine, percs, dilauded, etc, etc. Three days ago my oxy mg was 140 a day...What's up? Please help? ## In my opinion, It depends on how you are feeling now. the worst could be over. However, the devil will always be there from now on. You have to remember that only you and GOD can shake him off. Along with a good support system you can get rid of any addiction, just always remind yourself that you are strongger than any drug that man can make. GOD BLESS YOU, and remind the devil that you have GOD on your side from now on. ## It is also highly possible, that since you were taking th...

I have been prescribed 10mg oxycodone for the passed 2 years, 4x daily and have never had any problem with the ones I usually get (pink). This last rx the pharmacy gave me the RP 10s made by Rhodes Pharm. And I have never had a oxycodone make me so sick, sweating nausea, headache, chills. And to top it off no pain relief what so ever. Is it me or has anybody else had the same experience? I was wondering if the pharmacy could replace them. Any suggestions? ## Hi Carolyn, Sorry to hear about your situation and being stuck with inferior pain medication. From what I've seen in related threads here on MedsChat, many other patients expressed similar feelings surrounding the efficacy and side effects of this Rhode's product. Unfortunately, pharmacies don't typically allow patients ...

Am I crazy!? I just switched from Percs 7.5-500 to Percs 10-325 and I feel it doesn't work near the same at all. The 7.5-500 made me more pain free, and more chipper. The 10's just make me feel dazed and dizzy! Could the acetaminophen actually help that much more? So confused. Tempted to ask to go back to 7.5. I just hate feeling tired! ## The Acetaminophen does help the narcotic work better and it can also vary from person to person, so having a higher amount of it may make it work a lot better for you. Another thing that may play a role is if the new ones are from a different manufacturer, if that is the case, then they may not work as well for you, depending on fluctuations in the active ingredient, plus the inactive ingredients.

How long after taking 30mg oxycodone should you start to take suboxone? ## Hi Willis, u should wait until u r having withdrawal symptoms, b 4 u start the suboxone. It won't work and can make u feel sick if you don't wait. U don't have 2 b in a ball crawled up 2 wait. But, once u start feeling those withdrawals, u will know its time. ## Yes,Cats right. You gotta be in wds before you take the sub. If you take it too soon you chance whats called precipitated withdrawalls. You DON,T want that to happen. To be safe wait 16-18hrs. ## Hi Jolter, how r u doing, I'm fine. Just tired all the time. Think it's the subs and other meds I take. ## You only need to go into withdrawals then take one Suboxone. Take a second Suboxone the next day and never take anymore. This will get y...

I would like to find a doctor who will prescribe me percocet without me feeling like a drug addict every time I go in there. I have severe back pain and debilitating headaches. It is getting impossible to get prescriptions anymore. I live in the Boston area. I have 4 kids and I can;t lay in bed all day because I'm in so much pain. Is there a reasonable doctor out there? ## Well, the first thing that may be causing your problem is asking for a specific medication. Doctors tend to see that as drug seeking behavior, because the normal way it is done is by letting the doctor decide what medication is appropriate. In this case, if Percocet is what has worked best for you in the past, your best bet is to make sure that any new doctor gets your full medical records, which document this fac...

What is everyone's thoughts on the best brand of oxycodone 15mg? They don't all work the same... Some make me drowsy and some give me energy. What is your preference? ## I believe the Qualitest brand to be one of the better ones, but I've also noticed a problem here lately with them being always consistent in their strength; the KVK are good too; the Mylan brand A214's plain SUCK! They were good at one point but no more & lots of smaller pharms must get them at the cheapest prices, then sell them for 2-3$ a piece! Good Luck to you, like I read from another, "JUST STOP TAKING THEM ALL TOGETHER & if they're fake your body will start to let you know by feeling withdrawals & if by taking one it helps that & your pain all in one shot, THEN YOU KNOW THE...

I thought it was my imagination that something is not right with these pills, but I see that others are experiencing strange issues. What I am experiencing is that they make me feel very relaxed. Almost like having taken a Valium. There is nothing wrong with feeling relaxed, but they are not as effective in pain relief. Having Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, and Fibromyalgia.......I can really tell the difference. Additionally, the color of the pills are not consistent. Some are yellow, some are yellow and white mixed. I feel like they were mad in a basement some where. I have the ability to fill my prescription at another pharmacy. I got these at Walgreen's, and I will go elsewhere for future prescriptions if they continue to carry this odd generic. I've never had this ex...

I got these out here in Washington and I see a lot of ppl claiming fake but if u Google M 30 oxycodone there are pics of the lighter blue/white ones and there are pics of the darker blue ones. These resemble the color of the V's in color. I've taken them several times. They feel a little stronger than a usual 30 (not much stronger) but they fed do the job and no weird side effects. I've been taking oxys and Roxis for 10+ years. I think they're real for sure. Every single time I get the same feeling. Never stronger or never weaker. I think Mallinkrot (spelled wrong I know) the maker is making a darker M 30 oxycodone now. Just thought I'd chime in and I can post pics if anyone would like. To me tho if they were some fake ones from overseas then there would be inconsist...

Have been using opiets for over 35 years. Started with auto accident. Doctor prescribed over a long period then passed away. Was addicted and had to purchase illegally locally. Now still having problem with addiction and paying most of my SSI and Retirement for what I can get. Went to a mandatory class in Elizabeth City, NC several times weekly just to be able to get prescription for Suboxone. It worked but got tired of sitting 3 hours in class with young people and now back on the hard stuff.

Why does it make me feel nauseated? It doesn't take my pain away or make me feel comfortable. In fact I feel like crap. I have severe nerve damage throughout my whole body. How many is too much? ## Anything more than what your doctor prescribes is too much. If it is not working for you, you should inform them, you may need a dosage adjustment, or to try a different medication. Nausea can be a normal side effect of this medication, along dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. The FDA also warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming. Are you on any other medications? ## I've been prescribed oxycodone 5mg (V 48/10) for a surgery months back. I'm 94lb and 5'1. Now having some issues and need to take them again.
