Tylenol Overview

Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is a medication used to treat fever and mild to moderate pain.[11][12] At a standard dose, paracetamol only slightly decreases body temperature;[11][13][14] it is inferior to ibuprofen in that respect,[15] and the benefits of its use for fever are unclear.[11][16][17] Paracetamol significantly relieves pain i...

I have 3 herniated discs c4-c6 and myofasacia that was diagnosed from a car accident in October. 2014. My pop will not prescribe narcotics, I am currently in a pain management program who has sent me to physical therapy, a neurologist, and provided a tens unit. I am in pain 24x7 and cannot sleep because of the level of pain. My pain management Will not prescribe any pain medication. I have discussed this with my psychiatrist and psychologist who cannot believe they have left me in pain for so long. The pain has gotten so bad I have gone to their office 6 times with all my documentation, given 5 days of mess and told to call my dr, who says TO TAKE TYLENOL. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I CAN DO? I can't take the level of pain increasing. ## Hello, Michelle! How are you? I'm so very sor...

Round white scored pill E 50 imprint on front

Need help identifying a small round white pill. Front of pill is scored in the center with and imprint of an odd shaped E on top and 50 beneath, back of pill is blank. I think it is a painkiller of some sort. Can anyone confirm what this pill is? And if it is a painkiller what is it most comparable to in sense of strength? (i.e. on a scale from Tylenol to Vicodin to OxyContin) ## This tablet is manufactured by Epic Pharma and they list it as containing 50mgs of Meperidine. NDC: 42806-0050 This is a mild opiate narcotic, most commonly known under the brand name Demerol, so strength wise, I'd compare it to a low dose Codeine. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, constipation, and h...

Can i alternate Tylenol 3 with codeine and norco?

Just need to know if I can alternate between norco and Tylenol 3 with codeine? I cannot get any more detailed than that ## Hello, Jenny! How are you? That can be done, as long as your doctor has prescribed them both for you and approves. Note the word ALTERNATE. They should not be taken at the same time. The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Are you on any other medications? ## Can I take 1 tablet of Norco 7.5 plus 1 tablet of tylenol 4? ## Not recommended, especially not at the same time. Norco contains one opioid ingredient (Hydrocodone), whereas Tylenol # 4 contains Codeine, which is another opioid ingredient. Also, they both contain Acetamino...

Thick round light blue pill w/ INV 243 on one side blank on the other?

I found this pill, its light blue, thick, and has INV 243 on it, no marks on the other side. I was wondering if anyone had any idea of what it might be? Thank you! ## Can someone please help me? I found this pill, its light blue, very thick, it has INV 243 on one side, and blank on the other. Can someone please help??? I cant find it anywhere... ## I'm sorry, but I can't find this listed in any of our U.S. prescription drug resources, either. I just went through 4 pages of pill images from the company that uses the INV logo and I found nothing blue, or with the 243 marking. Where was it found? Does anyone else recognize this? ## It's almost like a Tylenol 4. Its for pain relief.

Red And Green Capsule White Stripe Numer 8

found a oval capsule on my kid from school it is half red and half green with white stripe down middle and number 8 on it i dont know what it is and the school nurse cant find out either i need help no clue what kind or anything it is ## This has come up o our site, before and I can't find a listing for it, however, from the description, I am assuming it is some type of over the counter product. These caplets that have the stripe in the middle are usually designed to be rapid release and are used for various products, such as Tylenol or its generic and store brand equivalents to allow the medication to work faster. However, there are several on the market and over the counter products are not required to log their imprints with the FDA, so discovering which one it is, is going to be...

Large Oblong White Pill No Imprint But Scored In The Middle

found some large oblong white pills that were cut in half. They were in a pill box with tylenol and advil. These white ones had no marking except for a vertical line down the middle where they were cut in half. Any clues to what they may be? ## I'm sorry, but if there are no markings, it is going to be difficult to narrow down exactly what these tablets may contain. We can rule them out as being a U.S. prescription medication, since they are all required by law to have unique markings to enable their identification. However, it could be any one of a large number of over the counter items, there is even a small chance it could be a foreign medication. Did you find these in the U.S.? Does anyone else have a idea of what these might be? ## the small white oblong tablets are being sold ...

Tylenol before taking Hydrocodone. Safe?

Just took Tylenol for pain. DR gave me Hydrocodone for pain after surgery. Scared to take it after reading all this ## Is it safe to take Hydrocodone after Tylenol didn't help? My surgeon gave me Hydrocodone after surgery ## No, you should not double up on the Acetaminophen, taking too much of it in a day, or in any 8 hour period, could result in overdose toxicity, which can be fatal. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. However, you could try asking your doctor to prescribe something without the Acetaminophen in it. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Verwon, too much actaminophen is bad for your liver.My wifes live...
