no, do not take them together, different people react differently to pain killers, alternate them to see which is better for you. combined they have too much Tylenol and could cause liver damage
Darvocet was withdrawn from the market by the FDA on November 19, 2010 due to it's increased risk of causing serious cardiovascular events such as heart arrhythmia or myocardial infarction.
Yes, but I wouldn't recommend doing large dosages of either nor would I take both for an extended period of time. Oral Steroids are methylated and so is Darvocet meaning both must be passed through the liver in order to be absorbed by your bloodstream. Large dosages of both can become hepatoxic and cause liver damage and possibly failure. The most ideal thing to do would be to cut out the steroids while coping with an injury (if this is why you are taking the pain killers) or switch to an non-methylated (injectable) steroid.
The closest drug in type and strength would probably be Ultram.
You should NOT, ever take these medications together. There is absolutely no need for anyone to take two narcotics together. Darvocet is used for mild to moderate pain, Percocet is used for moderate to severe pain. They are not prescribed together for a reason. Because these medications are both narcotics, their effects will stack. It is an extremely bad idea to mix narcotics. If you are taking Percocet for pain, and it doesn't seem to be enough, it is time to talk to your doctor. No doctor would condone the use of these medications together. Yes you can use them together. They both are mild and contain Tylenol and will stop your pain. However, as with any drug, use as prescribed. Never take more than indicated.
I have a permanent injury and have a darvocet prescription. Without thinking I took a dose of my wifes hydrocodone cough syrup for a recent cold. I asked the above question because i take random drug tests for work and I am worried that it will show up. I already have opiates in my system from the darvocet so I'm hoping it will just show up as an opiate. Are urine drug tests so specific that it will show each and every drug or just the category such as opiates? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!
Rest easy they both are opiates and will show up in a drug test as opiates drug test are not that specific they shoe thc,opiates,benzos ect... they show up as groups not as drug names your job is safe

Hey, not all drug tests are the same. some are more sensitive than others. The ones I had to take at a pain clinic detect the various different types of opiates. they can differentiate btwn percocet (oxycodone), vicodin (hydrocodone) TYlenol 3 (codeine) Darvoce (Propoxyphene) t, etc etc.
No. The suboxone will stop the darvocet from working.
Also, combining darvocet and suboxone could cause respiratory depression (a decreased rate of breathing). If respiratory depression is severe enough it can cause death.
the pharmacist said about 7 days and so did a drug testing facility
Its goin to be in your system for 3 days. If you drink large amounts of water this could cut the time down in half. It also depends on the dosage that is in your system & how long you've been on the drug. Be careful drinking alot of water at one time. It can be deadly
No. Hydrocodone (the narcotic contained in Lortab) is about 10-15 times stronger than Darvocet, technically. However the analgesia and euphoria associated with hydrocodone is much greater than that associated with Darvocet. (Most would agreee that the two aren't even comparable). Also, Darvocet has a more narrow therapeutic range, making it more dangerous in high amounts. Likewise, most hydrocodone containing medications (Lortab, Lorcet, Vicodin) also contain high amounts of acetaminophen, which can be harmful to the liver, especially in patients with liver failure.
Tylenol (acetaminophen) can cause liver damage and death in dogs.
Aspirin can cause life-threatening gastric ulcers in dogs.
Ibuprofen has a very high incidence of causing gastric ulcers in dogs and can also cause death.
If your pet is in pain you MUST call a vet for advice.
There are no known drug to drug interactions between these two medications, making them safe to take together...regardless of the time of day. Make sure to contact you primary care provider prior to taking these two medications to ensure that it is safe.
Darvon has a metabolic half life of about 6 hours. So after 6 hours your body will have half as much as the original dosage. Six hours later it will have 1/4, six hours after thAt 1/8 and so on.
No.
Darvocet is a Schedule IV narcotic, on the lowest class of opiate analgesics. While an opiate derivative, it's relatively weak when it comes to pain medication. Being a Schedule IV drug, you can get refills and a doctor can call it in. It is in the same class as Codeine.
Percocet is a Schedule II narcotic, a combination of Oxycodone and Tylenol. It is normally given only to patients with previous experience/tolerance to opiates at lower levels. The Schedule II narcotics cannot be refilled, nor can they be called in to a pharmacy - you must have an original prescription from your doctor for each fill.
Darvocet isn't even close in potency to Percocet, although some Pharmacists believe Darvocet to be more toxic.
Yes, there was a scientific study published in a psyciatry journal done at a medical school in israel than compared giving 300mg of dxm plus clonidine to patients receiving only clonidine for the treatment of opiate withdrawal, this study was dont in 2013, look it up. the result was that the dxm/clonidine patiens experienced less withdrawal than the only clonidine patients
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.
Yes, I hope so. I would be willing to sign any form regarding heart issues to receive my Darvocet back. I too have tried multiple other pain meds, with no relief or was allergic to them. The Darvocet was not totally effective for pain, but was the best for my back and joint pain. I wonder why the FDA has not recalled Penicillin and some other drugs that cause severe problems, but they are still on the market.
Darvocet is Propoxyphene a very weak opiate combined with a large amount of Tylenol usually 650mg in Darvocets case the Tylenol usually provides more relief than the propoxyphene it is basically a useless drug.Hydrocodone or lortab is a stronger semi-synthetic opiate pain killer also combined with Tylenol.Both can be addictive so you should be careful
I just read on another site that the two in combination are not advised. There is a potential for an uncontrolled hallucinatory effect. I'm not a medical doctor, I'm just passing on the information I read on this site. Norco is, however, the stronger drug for pain and makes it unnecessary for taking the two drugs together.
no it shows up as darvocet depends on how detailed they want to get on your test if they dont get to detailed it will show up just as an opiate but they can specifically tell what you took if they want to get detailed hope this helps !@
Propoxyphene is in a group of drugs called narcotic pain relievers. It is the generic term for Darvocet or Darvon.
Strong, not the strongest, but nothing to mess around with.
