Is 10 Mg Of Oxycodone A Lot

I take 5 mgs. of percocet twice daily for approximately 2years now. I am so tired of taking them. today I didn't take any and I feel a pressure in my head. My last one was about 12 midnight. Is this gonna get worse? ## Hi BB, The exact progression of oxycodone withdrawal may be different for each individual. However, from what I hear, symptoms tend to get worse over the first few days before leveling out. Usually for drugs like this, the safest way to stop taking them is to tapper off them, under a doctor's supervision; if possible. Failure to taper may result in much more severe withdrawal symptoms than you might originally anticipate; and could even prolong the withdrawal process over several weeks. For some people with a high tolerance, 10mgs is not a lot. But since you'v...

My two 5 mg oxycodone was changed to one 10 mg oxycodone - a round small pink pill that does not work at all. ## What are the markings on the tablets? Have you talked to your doctor about the issue? Learn more about Oxycodone Details ## 10 mg oxycodone is a small round pink pill with imprint 93 on one side and 7153 on the other - Some other names are roxy 10 mg or roxicodone 10 mg ## I have fibromyalgia as well as spinal stenosis with bulging discs. I also have a lot of back & leg pain which is flaring up the fibromyalgia even more. What more can I do if oxycodone 10mg doesn't help relieve the pain?

Taking these small round pink tablets specified as 10mg IMM REL for severe back pain. I tam allowed three a day...not a lot of relief ## There is no immediate release 10mg Oxycodone tablet, the immediate release is only available as a 5mg tablet. Learn more Oxycodone details here. If you have a 10mg tablet, it's either a regular release, or an extended release which would be Oxycontin. There is a small, pink, round tablet with the marking K 56 that contains 10mgs and its a regular release tablet, which means it will take 20 to 30 minutes to start having an effect in the body. There's also one with ETH 461 on it that's pink and is another 10mg regular release tablet. Do either of those match the tablets you have? ## The pink round Oxycodone I take supposed to be generic and a...

NEED TO KNOW IF ENDOCET 10/325 IS THE SAME AS OXYCODONE 10 MG??? ## No, Endocet contains Oxycodone and Acetaminophen, so it is a combination medication, which uses the Acetaminophen to help the Oxycodone work better. Learn more Endocet details here. Oxycodone is still the active narcotic ingredient, but as I said, the Endocet contains an additional medication. Are there any other questions or comments?

I got these today I feel no different than before I took them ## are the k56 pink pills are stronger than the k56 pink 10mg pills ## Hello, Talloneh! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by Caraco Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 10mgs of Oxycodone. The FDA classifies this medication as being 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. Not everyone experiences a lot of side effects from any given medication. Did it relieve your pain? That is the most important issue. Shortly, I'm sorry, but I am not sure what you're asking. Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you! ## Yea, there's no "punch" to them.. I'm not expecting much...

Which is stronger? Norco 10mg or oxycodone 15mg? ## Oxycodone is the strongest of the two, you'd need 22.5mgs of the Hydrocodone to equal each 15mgs of Oxycodone. The FDA classifies this medication as 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. ## Hello, all. Just wanted to try and help anyone out there with the similar situation. Generic norco used to work, but over the last 5 yrs., total junk. Tried every brand, felt anxious, no pain relief. God bless my doc, he switched me to oxycodone. Everyone is different, but noticed that this med is different in a lot of ways....most importantly...it is like creeper. It takes longer to start working as opposed to generic norco...

Kvk tech oxycodone 5 MG do not seem to work unless I up my dose from the prescription directions. Do they have the same problems that zydus pharmaceuticals has? ## I agree 100% now trying to grt your Dr to agree is a whole different challenge .It can make u appear to be a drug Seeker any suggestions? ## @Badox3, It seems to me that the best approach is to just be straight forward and honest with your doctor if something they prescribed isn't working. They can probably tell if your words are genuine based on how you present your situation. I think the idea is to not come off as desperate (begging), but instead take an earnest heart to heart approach towards getting your point across. I realize that a lot of doctors don't have enough compassion to do the right thing all the time, ...

This medication is weak compared Actavis oxycodone ## Hi Jay, How would you rank the mallinckrodt vs actavis on a scale on 1-10? I know a lot of patients who've been used to taking certain brands have also complained about actavis as well, but in my experience I'm finding the that primary differences people have are based on a variety of individual factors; such as tolerance, age, weight, metabolism, etc. Not only that but because both manufacturers use a different set of "inactive" ingredients (binders/fillers), this could also influence how much of the oxycodone is actually being metabolized and used by your body at any given time. These are the fillers used in mallinckrodt's (M 30) oxycodone 30mg tablet: microcrystalline cellulose + lactose monohydrate + stearic a...

Which medication is stronger: 15 mg Morphine ER or 10/325 Oxycodone or Hydrocodone 10/325 ## They are very similar. My doctor has put me on and we've tried to figure out what works. best. I get 10mg Norco & 20mg Oxycodone, and I alternate, it REALLY helps!!! (I have a LOT of medical issues.) ## @birdie, I think as post #1 suggested, you pretty much just have to work with your doctor to find out what best suits your level of pain. Some people debate that oxycodone is a step up from hydrocodone. I think the answer may vary with each individual based on personal preference. And as far as comparing morphine ER to immediate release oxycodone, there's probably no easy way to determine an equivalent dose since one is being slowly released...However if it's of any help, the foll...

Can someone cause somebody in the FDA to check out this Rhodes pharmaceutical company? If the potency can vary by up to 10 to 20% what does that tell you? They're not all the same. I have had Rhodes for two days and they're pure garbage I don't know why the pharmacy changed who's paying who off but these are absolutely terrible. ## You have to file a complaint with the FDA just like I did. The more complaints the faster they'll stop forcing this crap on us! Not sure how many other people take the time to file with the FDA but we need a lot more, I'm sure. They were giving me headaches, causing dizziness, and weren't touching my pain. ## This is what I found out on the Rhodes Pharm Percocets: The 5 mg, 10 mg, 15 mg, 20 mg and 30 mg tablets contain the equivale...

How long will it take to get off of 150 mgs. Of oxy daily by useing 10mg. Methadone without withdrawal I've been on the oxy for almost a year any suggestions? ## Wish I could help you man. Never detoxed specifically with methadone, however I have had plenty experiences detoxing cold turkey in between scripts. If you want to go that route it will take 1-3 days and it will not be very pleasant. Best you can do is try to sleep through most of it. I have had to use suboxone to detox before and it was pretty much the same thing except the suboxone really helped me sleep a lot easier. Cold turkey normally I would still wake up, even if I took sleeping meds, in horrible pain and cold sweats. Good luck! ## Thanks I was also wondering if trazadone will kill your oxycodone buzz

My husband, just had a rod takin out of his leg, and the gave him 10mg oxycodone, but one isnt helping. Wanted to see how many he could take safely to help with the pain.... ## It's kind of difficult to say given the limited information in your post. How tolerant is he to opiates? Has he been taking them for a long time? Learn more Oxycodone details here. When it comes to narcotics, a lot of it depends on the person's body and tolerance to them. Someone that's used to taking them regularly can tolerate much higher doses safely, than someone that rarely takes them. The best suggestion I can make is to call his doctor and tell them that the current dose isn't helping.

I'm taking 10-15 30 mg oxycodone daily is this a lot compared to other people's dosage? ## Hello, Shawn! How are you? Yes, that is a very high dose. In most cases the maximum is about half or less, than what you're taking daily. Except in cases of intractable pain due to a possibly fatal illness, such as stage 4 cancer. The FDA classifies this medication as 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. Are there any other questions or concerns?

I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2008. Over the years my nerve pain has gotten a lot worse. The pain has gotten so bad that it's ruining my life. I cant walk due to my legs not working correctly and experiencing a loss of all balance. I have pain everywhere but it's the worst in my feet. My Dr. has me on 10 mg oxycodone for about 5 years now. I was on percocet prior but I worried about my liver with all the acetaminophen. My problem is I'm not sure if I have built a tolerance or if I should be taking more at a time but it's not doing much for me. My pain never goes away. The pills slightly take the edge off for about an hour. That's it! I have tried 3 different types and strengths of pain patches and they didn't do anything. I tried morphine with the sa...

Day 2 (36 hours) into withdrawal. I dont feel to bad at all. A little tired, sweat at night bit slept well. Am I out of the woods yet? Yesterday evening was terrible, my body felt like I had to move my arms and legs. But I slept through the night. Getting ready to get ip now and prepare for my day ## That is a very low dose, so your withdrawal effects are likely to be mild, unless you've been taking it a lot of it each day, or been on it for a very long period of time. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic that carries the risk of being habit forming and its withdrawal effects may include nausea, dizziness, fever, chills, diarrhea and rebound pain. How are you feeling, now? Any change? ## Yes I have been taking almost 100 mg of oxycodone per day then about two weeks ago I...

Would like to know who distributes a 40mg yellow oxycodone with half moon and 330? What company? ## Hi Rebecca - The "half moon" sounds a lot like either the old Actavis logo or the Alvogen logo. Unfortunately I can't find a version with 330 on it from their product listings. Actavis does distribute a 40mg yellow oxycodone but with "OP 40" on it. But Alvogen's markings are a bit closer - They have an Oxycodone 10mg + Acetaminophen 325 mg pill (generic Percocet) which is round and yellow with the inscription 230 along with the Alvogen logo on them (NDC 47781-230). Does this possibly sound like what you might have? If you see a Google Image search for the Alvogen logo it could help to you verify that half moon. Please let me know if this helps at all.

My doctor gave me Morphine Sulfate ER 30 mg tablets and said they would last longer for pain than what I was taking, which was Oxycodone 10/325. The Morphine pills don't seem to last that long for me. What should I tell my doctor to prescribe me? Right now I take 2 of the Oxycodone and 2 of the Morphine a day. Before I was taking 5 of the Oxycodone a day and it just wasn't getting me through the day. I just had my 2nd surgery, 1 on my neck and 1 just recently in my lower back.
