Yes Absolutely. very simple to answer.
Not even close. Demerol is much, much, stronger.
Can you take lortab and demerol together?
lortab is 10 times stronger
no
No, morphine has a higher potency then demerol, which is also known as meperidine.
Both demerol and percocet are opioids, meaning they have opium alkaloids as their base. As far as potency goes, the oxycodone in Percocet is stronger than the meperidine in Demerol. Taken orally, Demerol is only about one-third as strong as when given IV or in a muscle. Taken orally, oxycodone is about 50% stronger than morphine, which is many times stronger than meperidine.
From experience if you take the same amount of oxycodone(ex. percocet roxicodone) and demerol, Demerol is stronger.
Morphine and Demerol (meperidine) are both opioid analgesics, but their potency differs. Generally, morphine is considered stronger on a milligram-to-milligram basis. Specifically, 4 mg of morphine is approximately equivalent to 50-75 mg of Demerol, making morphine significantly more potent. Therefore, 4 mg of morphine is indeed stronger than 50 mg of Demerol.
its the same
The Wlgreens pharmacist told me that the tylox was stronger than the Lortab 10. Ive never taken it before, and it works and makes you feel a lttle spunky also. LOL
Lortab and Vicodin are both forms of hydrocodone. Oxycontin is the controlled-release form of oxycodone. Oxycodone is stronger than hydrocodone.
I would say it depends on the type of dental pain (pre-surgical,post-surgical,or just bad infections or abcesses). Demerol (meperidine) is a way stronger pain killer than hydrocodone( vicodin,lortab,norco,vicoprofen). People having serious dental surgeries or have a tolerence to opiods might need the stronger demerol. Less severe dental pain can most likely be controlled by hydrocodone. Also hydrocodone always has either acetaminophen,or ibuprofen in it . While meperidine (demerol) has only that drug in it. The acetaminophen or ibuprofen in hydrocodone also has an anti swelling property to it which can help a lot. I've personally never heard of demerol prescribed for dental pain. Usually if something stronger than hydrocodone is needed percocet (oxycodone) is given.
