You take oxycodne 7.5 325mg for chronic pain would lorcet plus work better?

It sounds like you are talking about norco brand hydrocodone and no lorocet wouldn't be any better.


How can you get pain management doctor to change my pain med of lorocet to percocet?

Percoset (oxycodone) is stronger than lorcet (hydrocodone) so you need to convince him that you need stronger medication. Tell him that you just arent getting the same pain relief as you used to get when you started taking the pills, he will probably either prescribe stronger hydrocodone pills or swith to oxycodone and prescribe Percoset.


What catagorie does Lortab show in a drug test?

Lorocet contains hydrocodone and Tylenol. It is a very dangerous drug for damage to internal organs. The 10/650 Blue Lorecet for example contains 10mg Hydrocodone (a couple molecules different from Oxycodone) and 650mg Tylenol. Do the math! If you take more then 3 or 4 per day, you ARE damaging your Liver. The patient can't tell the difference between Oxycodone (Percodan, Percocet) and Hydrocodone. The Oxy scandal is ridiculous! Oxycodone has been on the Market for YEARS!!!!!! The only difference is the Oxycontin being abused, and making every headline is Oxycontin, made into a slow sustained release form. M/S Contin is the same sort of thing. Morphine Sulfate, timed release. Drug addicts make it so hard on real pain patients like myself. Contin (mispronounced Cotton) simply is a abbreviation for continuous release. Hope you have all the info you need! Go to a pain clinic, a good one or you will be killed by ignorant doctors........
