What are the effects of gabapentin and Darvocet together?

Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that most noticeably causes drowsiness. It can also cause you to feel somewhat 'relaxed,' but this is a very mild high at best. Darvocet can also causes drowsiness, as well as several more desirable side effects. Basically the cyclobenzaprine is going to put you to sleep. I personally would skip the cyclone and just go with the Darvocet. No one likes getting a good dopey high going only to pass out a half hour later.


Can you take one hydrocodone pill 6 hours after taking a Darvocet?

Hydrocodone is what is called a pure mu receptor agonist. This refers to certain morphine receptors in the brain. Darvocet is a partiaial agonist/antagonist, which means it can compete against many common narcotic analgesics. It is not advisable to combine the two as the darvocet can cause withdrawal symptoms inthose individuals habituated to pure mu agonists. In addition, darvocet has harmful metabolites that can cause serious side effects including siezures, with repeated administration. In my opinion, darvocet, darvon, and Demerol, are only suitable for pain relief for the short term. Their toxicity is such that the FDA is currently considering their removal from the market.


What is the difference between hydrocodone and Darvocet?

Hydrocodone is an opiate (meaning it's a derivative of opium), I believe. Darvocet is an Opiod, which means it's synthetic and made to chemically mimic the effects (especially painkilling properties) of other opiates. To my knowledge, Hydrocodone is more potent than Darvocet and is a schedule 3 controlled substance-Darvocet is schedule 4. The smaller the number, the higher the abuse potential. Hope that helped.


Will Ativan and Darvocet show up the same on a drug test?

NO. They are not chemically related and have entirely different effects. Ativan is the brand name for lorazepam, a tranquilizer closely related to Valium. Darvocet is a combination of the synthetic analgesic propoxyphene and Tylenol.


What is the allergic response to Darvocet?

Allergies are not specific to a substance or drug, side-effects are. Allergic reactions run patient by patient. They can include rash, itching, fuzzy/itching feeling in tongue/throat, and in severe cases problems breathing or swallowing.
