Drug Classification Of Nubain (Page 2) (Top voted first)

Updated

Years ago Nubain used to be a popular and effective drup for pain. It was the only thin that relieved my mom's back pain or my migrain headaches. I am a nurse and haven't heard of anyone getting Nubain in years so I asked an MD recently. He couldn't give me an answer. If it's not classified as a narcotic and relieves pain, why aren't more doctors prescribing it?

I live in the state Tennessee. I have been taking this medicine for a long time. I am so glad my neurologist suggested it.

The Stadol helped me a lot..My Doctor used to be a pharmacist. He said the best one in that family is TALWIN. I have not been able to find it however.

They are sister drugs so unfortunately I'm not surprised she had a reaction to Nubain if she does with Stadol.

Recently my Child was given nubain mixed with anesthesia for an MRI procedure. It is said he was moving around. This seems a bit odd as to my child was ever given this before. After the procedure he had a severe headache, finger nails were visibly blue and shivering with coldness. Thereafter he went into convulsion and passed out. Now my child also complains of pain in chest when inhaling. and pain on the right side of hip and stomach. I never knew that anesthesiologist give this to such children, and I believe he never had this before. It was clear they were rushing us in and out of the facility. has anyone experienced this?

Nubain is NOT a narcotic nor is it addictive nor is it an opioid. It is not prescribed because of those facts. People like to get high and doctors like you addicted.

It is the best pain drug on the market. But people cant do shots. Also it works on the Kappa opioid receptors and not the MU. So if you take Nubain it blocks your ability to use opiates. So if you take Nubain any opiate will not work for you. So doctors feel it limits what they can prescribe for your pain. Also it is generic and there is little money to be made. Doctors, nurses and pharmacist know very little about this drug as the reps dont push it. No money.

I dont know why there seems to be so much misinformation about Nubain. Someone has it in for this drug. If you google it you will read so much BS. Not so funny story I had surgery and was using Nubain. The pain doctor just kept pumping me with morphine and couldnt figure out why it had no effect on me. DAH I am using Nubain!! Sad that even a pain doctor doesnt know Nubain.

So it blocks your MU receptors limiting your choices for pain drugs. There is no money in it. Drug companies want you addicted. You have to inject it. Thats why it is not used.
