Darvocet Return To Market
(Newest replies first)

I have given Darvocet to patients for over 50 years. It is much superior to the codeine addicting medications. I have been unable to find any pain medication as effective as darvocet on medium acute or chronic pain. How can we get this medication back on the market?

Re: Verwon (# 1)

I only took Darvocet when I had dental work done. It worked great with no obvious side effects. I can NOT take any of the opiod replacements. They ALL make me nauseated and throw up. The doctors have tried tricking me ny telling me the various replacements will not make me sick. They all do.

Only in the eyes of Sidney Wolfe. Could not be beaten for post partum discomfort and much safer than Percodan that had been used previously. No more sleepy Moms and dropped infants.

Believe it or not it was not removed by El Lilly. Lilly fought Sidney Wolfe, masquerading as Public Citizen, a Ralph Nader fronting group. First Sidney who is a medical bureaucrat not a real practicing physician said it didn't work, then it was addictive, then it had tremendous side effects and on and on. In our institution we switched from Percodan to Darvon for postpartum discomfort. We had pain free mothers and few if any dropped babies with the additional advantage of less constipation. Lilly fought this group until the patent expired and there was no incentive to continue. Now we are cursed with all the oxycontin drugs. Thanks Sid you jerk.

It is the one pain med I can take that I am NOT allergic to, why don’t they put it back on the market. For those who have trouble with it , use your head, take something else. However, unfair to those of us who need it and can’t take anything else!!!

Really safe meds you mean the ones that are causing the so called opiod epidemic? While people with real pain can't be given enough pain meds to get rid of even half their pain. And have no life because of the pain. But lets set up safe injection sites. It is all BS

Re: Verwon (# 1)

I am allergic to every pain medicine EXCEPT darvaset!! This is the one thing I can take. This can’t hurt more people than all the addictive meds still on market. IF people are afraid, DONT TAKE IT. But some people STILL NEED THIS OPTION. The crap they say works like darvaset but safer does NOT WORK. Help us get it back. Please

What a bunch of lies and drug company propaganda. Generic darvocet was, the highest volume pain reliever dispensed in the US for many years. Relative to the number of tablets dispensed it was the safest product on the market. Its removal was to increase sales of still patented narcotics that were way more profitable for the manufacturers. It's removal was and is the primary cause of the current opioid problems/epedemic. Never heard of any patients reporting problems or side effects. Very few patients ever showed any drug-seeking behaviour. Ask any older doctor and/or dentist and most will agree. Less patient-reported side effects than any drug. Is darvocet available in Canada?

Re: PharTech (# 17)

Do agree with ya tech, could make equiv. of about 1000 doses (N-100) strength for about $5.00 US. Problem is that compounding pharmacies are faced with the "damned if they do and if they don't", & could get sued either way. But until someone videos them saying something like that lie they told Darvocetfan about not being able to get one of the ingredients and challenges them for refusing to compound the medicine, (violation of law) by FILING for litigation, they will side with the lay of the land and try to slide. What is needed now is a real lawyer and not one that is trying to get payoffs from big pharma to sideline the suit.

Re: DarvocetFan (# 15)

Hello Darvocet Fan,

THE CHEMICAL INGREDIENTS are common! Check the patent for this drug and see how easy it is to make! If your compounding Pharmacy said they could not get the ingredients then there is something very off about that pharmacy. This was a very easy to make drug and hence very cheap to make. If not for one part of the process it could almost be made at home.

There was never an opioid crisis when Darvocet was available, and no crisis to solve:

Food and Drug Administration announced on Thursday, Sept. 28, 2017 that immediate release opioids medications will now be subject to a “more stringent set of requirements” as part of the agency’s efforts to address the nation’s opioid epidemic. Immediate release opioids are “used to treat acute pain” and “account for about 90 percent of all opioid pain medications prescribed,” the article reports. “Many people who are currently addicted to opioids became medically addicted,” said FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, MD, in prepared remarks. “Their first exposure to opioids was from a legal prescription, and for many, that prescription was written for an [immediate release] formulation of these drugs.”

Re: Betty White (# 14)

What compounding Pharma did this for you? I tried one of my sources and was told he could not get the chemical ingredients.

At long last I have Darvocet again!!! Had to get it at a COMPOUNDING PHARMACY! Had to get prescription from doctor(not easy) then had to give authorization and sign information disclosure notice at the pharmacy as well as agreement not to sue the pharmacy since this med has danger warning from FDA. But at last they made the darvocet for me. Am overjoyed, at last no side effects!!! Cost was $220 for 100 capsules, too high but happy to pay!

This subject has been growing as questions return. Sites actually exist where action committees are being considered to readdress this issue. Also the implications of political action groups that caused the opioid crises are being researched as an intentional political act to cause the death of less than useful members of society. This would be a crime and any medical practitioners that colluded in such an act would be guilty of murder!

Here is a link to another topic related to this subject on this site for your review:

Darv. Fan,

Doc, I can appreciate everything you included in your pro propox. Post however no where in any submission is there reference to addicts consuming propox in excessive doses to weakly mimic the effects of dolophine aka methadone. Overdose deaths were common unlike with traditional codeine abuse's. Darvocet for mild pain was a staple in most households back in the day so I can understand the nostalgic belief that this medication was all good to all folk. As reasonable thinking adults we know when they decided to take these off the shelves all the protests in the world are not going to reverse that call.
