Constipation In Users Of Pain Medication
(Newest replies first)

Updated

Peristaltic contractions stopped by opiod or oxycontin use can be alleviated with use of this new medication which unblocks the pain receptors in the intestines. What is it called, Terpin?, Torpin? Tarpin?

Hi,
Yes, I checked that out...but codiene is etremely binding, Thanks for offering a possible match; maybe just the Terpin by itself will help...I really need to get booked with a Pain Specialist. My doc fancies himself one; but he just doesn't keep up on what is happening worldwide.

Hi Suze54,

Based on your description, I think you might be referring to Terpin Hydrate w/codeine. Terpin hydrate is an expectorant, commonly used in the treatment of acute and chronic bronchitis as well as other upper respiratory tract conditions. However, it is commonly formulated with an antitussive (e.g., codeine) as a combined preparation. I'm thinking perhaps it was most likely the codeine in it this preparation that helped alleviate those pain receptors in the intestines.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Terpin hydrate Details

Any thoughts on this being an option?
