Promethazine is an antihistamine/anitemetic used to treat allergic reactions and prevent nausea. That is why, in the case of this pill, it is coupled with the narcotic, to help prevent nausea as a side effect! ## VERWON - if you do the research you'll see that it was ORIGINALLY prescribed as an anti-psycotic ## And it is no longer approved for that use!

Lupizox Tablet
is it a pain killer? Can it be used to reduce the pain in the stomach during the menusuration cycle? ## what for LUPIZOX is prescribed and how safe it to take ## No........not for mensuration pains...Its for severe dental, spine, pains ## I'm not finding a whole lot of information on Lupizox, but from what I've read it appears as though the active ingredient may be Meperidine (more commonly known as Demerol). Meperidine is in a class of medications called narcotic analgesics; a group of pain medications similar to morphine. It works by changing the way the body senses pain. Since this medication can be used to relieve moderate to severe pain, there's no real reason why it wouldn't help relieve menstrual pain. However, in my opinion, there are better/safer options out the...
