is this ultracet as good as hydrocodone? ## Ultracet contains Acetaminophen and Tramadol and the Tramadol is currently classified as a narcotic, opiate. However, there is really no way to say whether one is more effective than the other, because medications work differently for different people. Some people find this to be a very effective medication and there are some people it doesn't work for, at all. The only way to really know is to try it yourself. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and dry mouth. Learn more: Are there any other comments or questions? ## Is the yellow hydrocodone more effective than the white

Acetaminophen + Dextromethorphan + Guaifenesin + Pseudoephedrine

It is in the morphinan class of medications with sedative, dissociative, and stimulant properties (at lower doses). Dextromethorphan does not have a significant affinity for the mu-opioid receptor activity typical of morphinan compounds and exerts its therapeutic effects through several other rec...

I recently had bi-lateral knee replacement revisions. (These last two made 9 surgeries). I have a prescription for OC/30. I take one tablet every 8 hours. I take 10 mg oxycodone as my break through meds. I sent a family member to pick up my Oxycontin 30's. There was 21 pills. She never brought them to me. I don't know how many she took or sold, but she is in rehab now. I want to call my dr and tell him I don't have my meds, but what will happen? Do I have to turn her in, even though she is in rehab? Will he give me another script? I feel like an idiot! Other family members warned me that she was using Methadone, and she had picked up scripts for me all along and never even unstapled the bag. Now what? I know I can't just go without, as that will so interfere with PT and ...

My doctor wrote a prescription for me before I was hospitalized for a surgery. When I was discharged and returned home, I found that my prescription is missing. I think it was stolen by a family member while I was in the hospital. But, it is possible that I lost or misplaced it. I do think it was stolen though. Is there a way that I can find out if the prescription was filled and where it was filled? ## Nikki, I would start with contacting the doctor who wrote the prescription. Perhaps they can even prevent the person who stole it from filling it. ## Nikki, A guess but the prescription was for your pain after your surgery. Nice family member who would let you suffer. ## I am on 30 mg oxycodone 4xdaily and they aren't working. since I filled my rx 2 weeks ago I have just felt sick an...

Me and my wife recently had a birthday party for my son. After the party I went into the bathroom to take one of my suboxone and i noticed the perscription was stolen. I have not reported it to the police or my doctor yet. I am not sure what to do. I dont want to ask my doctor for a replacement script because I dont know if I can get kicked out of the program. This program is the last chance for me to get my life straight and it is working so far but I am scared if I dont replace them that I run a risk of relapsing. My next appointment to get my regular refill is three weeks away. Has anybody ever delt with a situation like this or have any real advise on what to do? ## hi need help in ohio'...the best advice i can give you- is to try to find someone who you can buy a few from..enou...

Is there a brown colored pill for the 60mg oxycontin OP... my new Prescription is brown with the number 60 on one side and And the letters op are both capitalized on the reverse side? If anyone can help please comment!!! ## Hi, Paul! Sorry that it's not working well for you. There have actually been many posts similar to yours, since the formulation of the Oxycodone was changed. Many people have said that it doesn't work well for them anymore, plus it seems to be causing some odd, unexpected side effects. The original formulation is no longer available, you can only get Oxycontin in this new formulation that's been specially formulated to help prevent abuse. Learn more Oxycontin details here. What I'd suggest is speaking to your doctor to see if there is an alternative m...

Looking for amitriptyline manufactured by Mylan ## I'm sorry, but there is no database showing which medications from which manufacturer are in stock, at any given pharmacy. Such information would be virtually impossible to keep updated, if someone did try to create one. Have you asked your usual pharmacy if they can order it in for you? Some pharmacies will do so, for their regular customers. Amitriptyline is most commonly used to treat depression, and nerve pain. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, mood changes, and dry mouth.

Why does my Rx from Walgreens for Cipro have a mix of cr500 pills and other pills with a P on one side & 500 on the other side in the same bottle? ## Since this is a generic medication, it is manufactured by several different companies, so it is most probable that your pharmacy didn't have enough to completely fill your prescription from one manufacturer, so they had to finish filling it with one from a different company. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash. Is there anything else I can help with?

My best friend & boyfriend of 20+ yrs takes suboxone. He's been on it for over 6 yrs. He has gone thru bouts with alcoholism and prescription drug abuse, thus the suboxone use now. Today I was cleaning and found an empty Johnny Walker bottle under the sink in his bathroom. It was a pretty depressing find but caused me to pause and rethink some of his behavior lately which has been more erratic, angry & he spends a lot of time downstairs by himself instead of hanging w/ me watching a movie at night like we've always done. At first I thought it was his use of "Jacked 3d" some body building supplement that he says gives him energy. ( of course the suboxone use doesn't help so now he's just replacing one addiction w/ another & this crap is getting expensi...

small round pink pill with straight line through it. ## Hi crazy, Does the photo linked below look like it could be a match to your pill? (I was having some trouble with my browser while loading the link so you may have to refresh the page or paste the link into your address bar if the image isn't displayed initially): healthy.kaiserpermanente.org/static/drugency/images/IVX10170.JPG If that is your pill, Kaiser Permanent identifies it as a Vitamin B-12 tablet, containing 1000 mcg of Cyanocobalamin. I know you had also mentioned that it was a "mexican description". By that, do you mean that it could've been manufactured there? Hope this helps!

multiVitamin with sight aids ## please also let me know what will happen in the future if i do not continue to take this medication. I am 46. I have had a dexa scan and that was fine. So I am not sure why I am taking this. I am also b12 diff and potass diff. any info would be helpful ## If you doctor recommended it or prescribed it, then your best bet would be to talk to them to discuss why you are taking it. None of us here can know why you were started on it and none of us can guess why you might still need it.

Hi- My SGPT is 63.3 i.u/lit. I am under treatment but want to know how much time it will take to come in normal and when i can follow my normal diet ## Although I don't have a way to provide an exact answer to your question, I will say this: When one lives healthfully, health is the result. However, previous 
lifestyle habits and choices have taken a toll on our bodies and 
eventually lower the level of our health potential; whereas some conditions can take years to heal, while other conditions may only take 3 days. We are all different, and will heal and detoxify differently. I would give it a couple weeks, (maybe 2 or 3) before you can expect big changes, but please take care to only use that as an estimate and not a definitive time frame. If yo...
