Types Of Narcotics

Plainly stated, opinions vary on the top 5 list of popular Rx's. Xanax alone will after a time become habit forming and difficult to stop. Hydrocodone alone has similar properties. Possibly the most abused combo out there. Clonazepam is safe, and does not have the synergistic sedation of hydrocodone and Xanax. ## Hello, Kim! How are you? I'm sorry, but actually Clonazapem can cause the same types of issues with narcotics as Xanax, it is also a benzodiazepine, so it increases sedation, just like the rest of them do. All of the medications you've mentioned are known to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, constipation, drowsiness and dry mouth. Are there any questions or concerns? ## I currently take hydrocodone 10/325 QID and only at night t...

I would like to know the properties of this drug and the contraindications ## I need to know what diclofenaco contains and what side effects would cause when taking the pill. For what types of pain is this medicine prescribed. ## Diclofenac is what it contains, it is commonly sold under the brand name Voltaren. It is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, used to treat many different types of pain conditions, such as arthritis. Does anyone have experience using this medication? ## I had unrelenting pevic pain last year. No doctor in the USA could figure it out... I saw three. They suspected it was pelvic congestion syndrome.. yet offered no cure or pain relief. Ibuprofen was a joke. I refused narcotics. I went to Mexico and saw a gynecologist. He went about ruling out more serious things lik...

Ok this is long so bare with me! I had a major foot surgery in February and started on this med and am not feeling good at all. My legs are always shaky and when I try to go to sleep my legs jump up. This is not a good feeling at all? I also take meds for epilepsy? But that is another story! Anyway, how long before this is out of my body? I don't have any u/a or anything. It's just me and wondering when this feeling will be overcome? ## Narcotics can cause those types of side effects, in some people that take them. Others, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. How long ago did you stop taking them? It may take a couple weeks for all of the side effects to fully wear off. Have you changed the dosage on your other medic...

has a R with637,grey tablet ## THIS IS NOT LORTAB, NOR ANY TYPE OF NARCOTIC! This is Gabapentin, 800mgs, a generic for Neurontin, which is used to prevent Epilepsy seizures and to treat certain types of nerve pain. But it only works for certain people with nerve damage and is not related to narcotics at all. Pill Image

Find a private doctor that treats with methodone or other narcotics for chronic pain. Nashua, NH or Lowell,Ma areas. ## Hello, Kathy! How are you? If you require these types of medications on a long-term ongoing basis for the treatment of chronic pain, then due to the regulations that were put in place last year, you'll have to see a pain management specialist. Do you currently have a PCP that you see regularly? If so, getting them to refer you to someone is usually the easiest way to get in with a specialist to get the help you need. Does anyone know of a good doctor in the area?

gabaneuron was prescribed for severe pain at the last vertibrate ## Gabeneuron contains the active ingredients Gabapentin and Methylcobalamin and is used to treat certain types of nerve pain. However, this is not a conventional analgesic, so it will not work as fast as regular pain relievers, such as narcotics do. It will take a month or so to reach its full effectiveness in the body and see if it helps you. Side effects may include: nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and weight changes.

Mine says for pain and mood. In what way would this help pain? Or maybe I should rephrase what is in it to relieve pain? ## Hello, Suzette! How are you? It can help with some types of nerve pain, due to it's action in the brain. Many people have had good luck with these types of medications, which means they can avoid resorting to possibly habit forming narcotics. Thus, there's nothing else special in it, it's the Venlafaxine itself that can help. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with?

My doctor of over twenty years fear of new laws took my narcotics away. Lyrica causes weight gain & my face & legs to swell. Advil made my mouth swell shut so narcotics were a few of only things I could take. I wish the pill mill doctor would be sentence to two years of what i live with. constant pain even with med, living a tortured life watching others live. I have been doing this over 15yr I really don,t leave the house much, it is just too hard ## Hello, Jean! How are you doing? I am very sorry that you're in so much pain. Your doctor didn't refer you somewhere else? You can still get those types of medications, they just have to be prescribed by a specialist, which for you would be someone trained in pain management. ## Hey!

Is lyrica a narcotic i just got some 100 mg to try i take neurotin 800 mg 3 times a day ## No, they aren't narcotics. ## Hello, Kaylee! How are you? BL is correct, thank you BL for your helpful post. To be more specific, these are both anticonvulsants that have also been shown to help with certain types of nerve pain and some mood disorders. Typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood swings and weight gain. That said, no, you shouldn't take both, because you would be essentially doubling up on the same medication, which could result in overdose. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I take both.

pancreatis cancer is why they prescrib it can'find no one to fill it ## Do you have any type of prescription insurance? If so, then the best advice I can give you is to contact your insurance company and ask if they have a mail order pharmacy that they recommend that accepts your coverage. This is the only way that many people have been able to get prescriptions for these types of narcotics filled recently. Learn more Dilaudid details here.

Ive been on Fentanyl patches 200mcg for 10 years I think I need a stronger type of fentanyl. NOTHING else works.

Looking for a doctor in the fishers area that subscribe Xanax and oxycodone ## Unfortunately no one can really know ahead of time what a doctor is or is not willing to prescribe, as that is based on the doctor's discretion and not on someone else's previous appointment (especially since many doctor's are now worried about losing their licensing for prescribing too many narcotics). If you're looking for a pain management doctor though, they are better known for prescribing the types of medications you seek.

1st time taking oxycontin what can i expect? ## Hi thrillseeker, From what I've read, 40mg is considered to be somewhat of a high dose for a first time user. However, your reaction to it really depends a lot on your tolerance to narcotics. Someone who has taken them on a frequent basis and in higher doses will likely need to have more in order to notice any sort of effect on their pain levels. Also, you may want to be fully aware of the potential side effects that are commonly associated with narcotics (i.e. dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, dry mouth, etc). A more complete list of side effects can be found here: nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a682132.html#side-effects Have you taken any other types of pain medications prior to getting oxycontin?

I was recently perscribed tylonal 3s with codine for pain for an absess in my tooth and on the bottle hand written in black pen is the letters xy what does that mean ## Also I was perscribed penicilian at the same time and there is nothing hand written on that bottle ## Those types of markings are just used by the pharmacy to show that the prescription and tablet count were double checked for accuracy. Learn more Acetaminophen details here. Learn more Codeine details here. It's often done with any medications that contain narcotics or other controlled substances, especially if the prescription was originally handled by a pharmacy technician. That marking shows that an actual pharmacist double checked everything, before you were given the pills. It's really an extra way for the p...

Finding these types of controlled medication online can also be difficult. Have you tried calling around to see if anyone in your area has it?
