Still Pain

I have been taking Amox/k 875 for 5 days with little relief. Can I take Acetaminophen or Aleve with this medicine? ## Yes, you can take either of those with it, as long as your doctor approves. However, if you've had no improvement after 5 full days of taking it, then this may not be the right antibiotic to treat your infection. Have you informed your doctor? You may need to switch to a different one. The FDA lists the typical side effects of antibiotics as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

July of 2009, I was in an auto crash and broke my C-3, C-4 in my neck. Today my neck still tends to hurt, but my back is in chronic pain. My docter just prescribed me ULTRAM 50. I have no idea what this might do for me. The last stuff he give me didn't do squat. What is out there for the people that have constent pain? ## Ralivia works for me. It is about the only thing that does. It is a 12 hour medication. But, it is not covered under canada health care.

The FDA lists them as possibly including nausea, dizziness, fever, chills, rebound pain, depression and diarrhea. What is the dose of each? Are you having a problem with the MS Contin?

I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF ITS TRUE,THAT IF YOU CRUSH STILL PAIN TABLETS AND TAKE IT CONSTANTLY IT WILL MAKE YOU LOSE WEIGHT AND ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS TO IT., ## I'm sorry, but I can't find any information on a product listed under this name. Is it an over the counter item? If so, what country is it available in? I would, however, like to not that taking any medication in a manner that it is not intended is not safe. All medications carry the risk of side effects, even over the counter products and taking anything constantly can also be very dangerous. ## pls dnt take those tablets. i lost a family member that got addictd to it. lost so must of weight, but looked terrible. ## This is one of the most addictive medication because of the codeine and meprobomate combination.

Well I've been prescribed hyocyamine 0.125mg sub vir. I'm supposed to take it every 6 hours for my lower abdomen pains However I'm still in pain, can I take more or should I just sit through the pain. ## Hello, Julio! How are you? It would be best not to change your dosage, without your doctor's approval. This medication isn't an actual analgesic, it works by decreasing the motion of your stomach and intestines. I can also take several weeks to reach its full level of efficacy in your body. How long have you been taking it? The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, bloating and blurred vision.

I had lots of surgeries and many health problems. Used opiates 4 ten years and became addicted. I was on methadone 4 almost 5 years. Now I've been on suboxone 4 ten years. But, I still suffer with pain. Don't want 2 go back on pain pills, but, don't know what 2 do? ## I feel the same as u. STUCK! I had many of surgeries and have a lot of medical problems. I was on heavy duty pain meds 4 ten years. Then I went on methadone, that helped with pain. But, I decided 2 taper off after 5 years. I was on 120mgs and got down to 24mgs. At that point the withdrawals were so bad, I walked into my Drs. Office in tears begging him 2 help me. He said I had 2 choices. Either stay on methadone and increase the dose or go on suboxone. I went right on suboxone that day. I suffer all the time wi...

I drink more or less 40 stilpanes per day. Do I need help or can I qui on my own? ## Stilpane contains 320mgs of Paracetamol, 8mgs of Codeine, 32mgs of Caffeine and 150mgs of Meprobamate and if you have been taking that many, then you may be i serious medical danger and you should see a doctor immediately. Aside from the addiction factor, the Paracetamol can be toxic is taken in amounts over 4gramgs (4,000mgs) in a day and if you are taking 40 of them, then that is 12,800mgs, or 12.8grams, which is way past the toxic level. You may have already caused permanent damage to your liver and other vital organs and need to seek medical attention. Are there any other questions or comments? ## I had a cyct removed from my brain and I am now addicted to still pain. If I do not have the tablets I ...

Hi I'm on Fentanyl Transdermal System 100mcg every 72 HR. for chronic back and I take Hydrocod 10/325. I have a T12 fracture Osteoporosis(bad) and severe after affect of shingles. My Dr said I should have no pain but I do, it feels like I'm not taking anything for this pain! Does anyone have any Ideas whats going on here. HELP it's been a year but only on Fentanyl 6 months. Thanks ## Oh, I've been to those types of doctors before and I am very sorry to hear what you are going through. The simple fact of the matter is that no matter how strong a medication is, they just don't all work for everyone. It would be wonderful if they did, but they don't. Unfortunately, with all the medication abuse that goes on, some doctors are very reluctant to believe a patient in re...

Does stillpane slow/stop the flow of blood during pms? ## No, it shouldn't have an effect on it. It contains Paracetamol, Codeine, Caffeine and Meprobamate and is used to relieve pain. Learn more Paracetamol details here. Learn more Codeine details here. Learn more Caffeine details here. Have you had a problem with your menstrual cycle? Learn more Meprobamate details here. ## My sister has been addicted to stilpane for 11 years. She has two kids age 11 and 5 and refuses to admit to her problem. I have tried everything to get her help, but she wont. She looks like the walking dead and I am not sure what to do. She has lost so much weight and her face is a grayish color. She looks like death. Please tell me what I should do.

my dad used to use a medicine for mouth sores he got when he chewed- he thought it was called painla- does anyone know. I can't find it. thanks ## Was it an over the counter product? From the name, I'm assuming it probably was and, in that case, it's very hard to say what it was and if it's still available. There are, however, similar products on the market that serve virtually the same purpose, such as Orajel, which contains the topical anesthetic Benzocaine:

Just had a root canal. I took 1 hydrocodone 7.5/325 mg and 800 mg of ibuprofen and I'm still in a lot of pain. What else can I do? ## Stacy, Not much, it may take time for the trauma of the root canal therapy to subside. I highly doubt your dentist can or will rx anything stronger. Did they order an antibiotic? Rinsing with warm water may assist as well. Try to rest. The medication sometimes needs time to thoroughly provide relief. If all else fails follow up with the dentist in the am. ## Thank you. I was on one antibiotic but she added another one and a steroid because I wasn't getting any pain relief. Also, my cheek on the same Side as root canal was red and hot to the touch. Since starting additional meds I'm finally feeling some relief. ## Stacy, That's awesome I...

Hello yes I am new to this medicine, 4 days to be exact. At first I was optimistic but I currently am experiencing pain. The pill is 7.5/ mg. I have a hip replacement and femoral rod and an in-stable knee where I also experience pain.My question is when will this medicine go into full swing? I feel like it may have worked and then stopped which is so weird to me. Please help and I am open to suggestions. ## Hello, Jocelyn! How are you?

Dentist Gave Me Pain Meds And Antibiotics For A Toothache But It Still Hurts. What Can I Do To Help Ease The pain? The pain is extreme and keeps me from sleeping. ## Hello, Hex! How are you? What medications were you prescribed? How long have you been on the antibiotic? If it's working, you should start to feel an improvement after 3 days being on them, which will improve the pain. The antibiotic may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. ## Hydrocodon and clindamycin. It has been nearly early a week ## If you're still in severe pain, after more than 3 days on the antibiotic, then you most likely need a different one, so you should consult your dentist, again. If an antibiotic is working, you should see improvement after 3 full days o...

Hello, I was prescribed pantoprazole 40 mg to help with my stomach pain. The medicine did make the pain leave. However, after the 8 week course my doctor reduced the dose to 20 mg and told me only to take it when necessary. I was taking 20 mg for only two days before my symptoms returned and I was forced to return to 40mg. I have an appointment scheduled with my doctor soon but I am scared that I might have stomach cancer( 39 year old female). What should I expect at mh appointment. Is a relapse normal so soon after reduction in dose? Thank you. ## Well, I'd say that it isn't time to panic, calm down and relax. There are many other conditions that can cause stomach pain, that aren't stomach cancer. I have experience in this area, several years ago, I started suffering severe...

I had a total knee replacement done last Monday. When released on Thursday, I was prescribed with Oxycodone Acetaminophen 5 325 as a pain killer in time of need. I needed a little yesterday--I really haven't had that much pain before, even in the hospital, but I guess I pushed myself a little too much, so I took one of my capsules. I awoke in the night because the pain I was feeling was 10 times worse than anything I'd been through since surgery. I took another and the pain increased. What would cause this? I have used only three of the fifty prescribed, so I don't think I could be already addicted. I'm a 59 yar old female, with a moderate HBP and diabetes, both more or less controlled. My health is otherwise good. ## Addiction wouldn't cause worsening of the pain, t...

Can you get pain meds if you have surgery while your on suboxyn or can you never get pain meds again ## Usually, your doctor would have you stop it several days before surgery, so it won't cause problems with anesthesia and to ensure that pain medications will work for you. The Naloxone in it usually only blocks them from working for about 3 days, after last taking it. The FDA classifies this as an opiate that is most commonly used to treat drug addiction, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?
