Demerol

The biggest difference is their potency - Demerol is a DEA Schedule 2 controlled substance, while Vicodin (Hydrocodone) is a Schedule 3 drug. Demerol (generic name Meperidine), being a Schedule 2 drug, is more tighty regulated - you cannot get refills, and each fill must be obtained with a new prescription each time. Also, many doctors don't like to prescribe Demerol because it's been associated with potential seizures. Personally I think it's that they're too chicken - I've used it for years with no problem.

Vicodin, being a Schedule 3 drug, can have refills on one prescription and isn't as tightly regulated, and is more often prescribed for most acute pain patients.

Pharmacologically, they're both morphine derivatives, though Demerol is a lot stronger. It's also more often given as an injectable or through an IV stream when a person is in the hospital.

about a half an hour

As far as narcotics go...... Schedule#4 drugs-xanax,valium,darvocet-they may be hand written or computer typed,and are allowed 5 refills(good for a year)and also may be called into the pharmacy by phone Schedule#3 drugs-lortab,lorcet,vicodin-are the same as above,but only allowed 5 refills(good for 6 months) Schedule#2 drugs-Oxycontin,Percocet,Dilaudid-must be hand written or computer written on special paper,and no refills allowed-must see your doctor to get new script(there is an exception they may be faxed to pharmacy,but original script must be mailed to the pharmacy within 72hrs,but that is all up to the Pharmacist if he wants to do that

Hey ok so demerol you want to no where you get it well you get precription for it from the doctors then you can get it from pharmacy....but you must be careful because it is addictive so if you are going to take it make sure you dont overdose or get the wrong amount...if you get addicted it is very hard to get off of demerol and you can only do it with help also it can leave you with brain damage or worse so just be careful if you want to get dermerol!!!! sophia

Yes, it's more commonly referred as Demerol.

no one knows what is in fentanyl, but the people who own the patent. The fact is that drugs are as big as the military complex the USA has become,

The Duragesic patches work and if the makers of fentanyl (the spelling is correct) works like an opiate, it matters not to the one in pain what is in it.

I use it and it does reduce the pain a bit; however, if I found out it contained a bit of cow dung in it, I would still use it Now human excrement would make me take a new look at morphine

3 days .. Its an opioid. They say 2-3 days but I'd give it 3 for sure.

demerol is a opiate. so it can be tested the same as most common prescription medications. urinalysis, blood, and hair folical are some of the ways it can be tested.

Is 50mg of demerol stronger than 40mg of hydrocodone? The answer to that question is Yes. First of all hydrocodone is a schedule III drug where as demerol is a schedule II narcotic. The DEA classifies narcotics, amphetamines, sedatives, hypnotics by schedules. The lower they are on the schedule list the stronger and more powerful they are. Hydrocodone comes in 2.5mg to 10mg tabs and also comes in cough syrup. Usually hydrocodone is used as a combination drug with Tylenol. Hydrocodone can generally only be taken by mouth. Generally narcotics when taken by mouth loose 25-50% of their efficacy because they have to be broken down in the GI tract before entering the blood stream. Demerol on the other hand comes in 50mg tabs for oral use, it comes in liquid form, for injections and IV administration, where it bypasses the GI tract and goes directly into the blood stream for immediate pain relief with no loss of efficacy. Demerol can also be used in an IV drip form like morphine. Hydrocodone is designed for mild to moderate pain where as demerol is designed for moderate to severe pain. A general rule of thumb is you need 10X more medication (same medication) by mouth to get the same pain relief as you do if the medication is given IV. and a shot form maybe 5X. I hope that answers your question.

That depends on whether you're taking a time released form like Oxycontin or an immediate release like Percocet or Roxycontin. You ideally wouldn't want them peaking at the same time. So you should be on Oxycontin and a fairly low dose of XANAX.

Meperidine is generic for Demerol which in fact is very similar to Morphine so what do you think?.................Well if you said Meperidine you are correct. Yes they are all opiates. But Morphine is the father try smoking opium.

No you cannot drive after taking demerol, it impairs your ability to focus and causes severe drowsiness.

on the street, about $20 a piece for pills

Meperidine (me per' i deen) is a pain reliever. it falls to or in the class of ''narcotic analgesics'' or similar to morphine it comes in a tablet and a syrup.

morphine, valium, subbies, and temmys, sniff them all. get blitzed

Demerol is a narcotic pain reliever similar to morphine.

Methadone is a synthetic opioid used as an analgesic and and maintenance anti-addictive.

If patient is truly allergic to either Demerol or Fentanyl (i.e. anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock), then give morphine. Both drugs mentioned above are synthetics, which are completely different family from morphine, which is an alkaloid. Hope this helps.

I am a pharmacist. 7.5 mL (1.5 teaspoonfuls) of 50 mg per mL Demerol syrup will contain 75 mg. It is a simply and straightforward calculation, but if it helps, you can think of 50 mg per 5 mL as being 10 mg per mL. Therefore, 7.5 mL of the syrup contains 75 mg.

purpose of Demerol and atropine sulfate as preanaesthetic

Yes you can, and the euphoric proprieties surpass that of hydro-morphine. SO HOW DO YOU MIX ITTO SHOOT IT

Consult a doctor or medical professional. It is not recommended. Again, consult the prescribing doctor or medical professional. "http://psyweb.com/Drughtm/DrughtmAdv/jsp/AdvXanax.jsp" states "Narcotic analgesics of any kind, like Darvon (propoxyphene), Darvocet (propoxyphene, acetaminophen), Demerol (meperidine), Codeine, Percocet (oxycodone, acetaminophen), Vicodin (hydrocodone, acetaminophen), Vicoprofen (hydrocodone and ibuprofen) or OxyContin (oxycodone) may accelerate central nervous system or respiratory depression when taken with Xanax. Also, Xanax may decrease the effectiveness of these medications as pain relievers." and recommends asking your doctor's advice before combining these drugs.
