Is it dangerous to take Lortab during pregnancy?

Lortabs are considered safe during pregnancy. Anyone who tells you otherwise either has no clue or is not a doctor. I have been prescribed them during pregnancy and of course was very concerned about taking them...I am also high risk given that I am pregnant with multiples (twins). My doctor states that they are safe to take as long as you don't take them for too long, and you get off of them several weeks before delivering so that your child doesn't display withdraw symptoms when it's born. Of course it's the most mild dose, and you should only take it when absolutely necessary. I always recommend talking to your doctor, there is a lot of great information on the internet, but a lot of it is just full of people that think they know what they are talking about because they have done minimal research or heard a story. If you are in severe pain call your doctor and ask for advice, if you don't have one call the nurse's hotline.

Do methadone and hydrocodone show up the same on a urine drug screen?

Yes, a general drug test would indicate that they are both opiates, witch is a group of drugs that include most painkillers. But I believe that depending on the reason for the test, is it for employment or probation? more specific tests may be used in certain cases in which the specific drug can be identified. This is being done more and more in just regular DR. offices now. Anyway hope this helped and good luck.

How long does it take for the pill to enter your system?

It can depend on the pill and your body's specific metabolism. Most medications absorbed from the stomach or small intestine will take from 5 to 30 minutes to reach the bloodstream. Some, like aspirin, will be at least partly absorbed within 1 minute.

Does oxycodone raise blood pressure?

I have not had my blood pressure check while taking my oxycodone, but it noticeably increases my heart rate. My average heart rate is between 80-90, but sometimes after I take oxy I check itbecause it feels like it's racing. During those times my heart rate is usually 100-110. I don't have any heart problems or high blood pressure so it has to he the oxy. And I'd guess if you're heart is racing, blood pressure is probably high too!

How long does vicodin show up in urine drug screens?

Vicodin is a combination drug made up of acetaminophen and hydrocodone. Acetaminophen is not tested for in urine drug screens, but hydrocodone is - it's part of the 'opioid' family of pain-relievers.

Hydrocodone has a 1/2 life of 3.3-4.4 hours: this means it takes that long for 1/2 of the drug in your blood to leave your body. Different Vicodin prescriptions have different amounts of hydrocodone in them, but commonly it's 5mg per dose - but you can see how this will get confusing if you're taking Vicodin every 4-6 hours!

The best estimate is a few days to be completely out of your system since last taking the medication.

If you are taking Vicodin because of a recent surgical procedure or for chronic pain, you can present the prescription to the institution testing you. You will also want to be up-front about taking this medication since it is meant to help you and it may show up on a drug screen.

Many people want to know how to 'beat' drug tests, but the fact is: if you are taking prescription medication for a medical condition, AND you are open about taking this medication, then you have nothing wrong.

2 to 5 days depending on your usage.

Just to add to make sure the reader is getting this right, it will not show up as "opiates" on your standard 5-panel screening kit, its usually the 10-panel or more expensive ones will it show up as Hydromorphone, because both hydrocodone and oxycodone do not metabolize in the body into morphine. Morphine usually shows up positive for Heroin, Morphine, and Codeine.

How long should you wait to take Suboxone after taking hydrocodone?

Ok, I do these things too...I take 20 mg. of Suboxone daily....I have found, that you can still use opiates (pain killers) and even herion even just 10 hours later.....and still get some mild effects..if you wait longer of course, the higher you'll feel and you would want to take alot more Vicodin than usual to get the same hydrocodone effects you would've been used toif you want the MAX euphoric feeling....wait long enough to srt feeling sick from lack of suboxone and then take them...then youll get the response your looking for

Does lorcet and Roxy show up the same in blood and urine tests?

Lortab is the brand name for Hydrocodone and acitomenephine. Percocet is the brand name for the drugs oxcycodone and acitomenephine when they are mixed together. On a chromatograph or laboratory type drug screen individual drugs will be detected. On litmus style or stick type drug test drugs are generally lumped into large categories such as canabanoids, opiates, amphetamines and so on. The smart thing to do is not to mess around with stuff you have never had a script for and in general obey the three day rule when you can. Another words do not do drugs 3 days before the test at the minimum.

Can you inject Percocet?

Theoretically- Yes, you can inject anything into yourself.

Is it a good idea? No- it can lead to death.

There is an injectable form of Oxycodone but it is kept under lock and key by doctors.

Can they tell how many hydrocodone you are taking through a urine test?

No they can not, that is if it is a regular five panel test. If you are getting a high grade medical toxicological screen test than they can detect how much, but it is highly unlikely for you to be tested like this.

Can you take vicodin and theraflu at the same time?

You can and they shouldn't have much of a harmful effect since ibuprofen, acetaminophen, dxm, and pseudophedrine are the chemicals and none have warnings that I could find for mixing them. Just keep the dosages down or consult a doctor.

Can take hydrocodone and cialis?

Yes you can. But you have a 22/7 chance of your legs seizing up, mouth drying, and testicals releasing from the scrotum.

Can you take Prozac with hydrocodone?

While you are able to take hydrocodone and Zoloft at the same time, it is highly recommended that you do not do so unless advised by a medical professional. The combination of the active sertraline in Zoloft and the hydrocodone can increase the risk of seratonin syndrome.

Whenever wondering about the side effects or dangers of prescription drugs, always consult a medical professional for the best advice.

If a person took Hydrocodone Saturday would it be out of their system Wednesday?

Everyone matabizes pills differently but typically any pain killer or opiate is out of your system in 72 hours. I would say your cutting it close, you should be ok if you drink alot of water ( not before the test or you'll get a dilute ) and even some pickle juice. If it was Thursday I could gaurantee you'd pass, but that's the advice I have for you.

Can you pass a DOT drug test while taking Vicodin?

It takes three days to completely leave your system. Drink lots of water immediately before your test if it has been less time. Make sure you pee a couple times before giving a sample. This will dilute the drugs in your urine and hopefully you will pass. The best method is to obtain clean urine from someone who is the same sex as you and ideally their age should be within ten years of yours. Put the clean urine in a non-lubricated condom and tie the end off. Most drug testing agencies test the temperature of your sample which must be within 5 degrees of 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Put the condom with the clean sample in your underwear (briefs not boxers) and leave it there (with as much contact with your skin as possible, under the balls works well) until it feels neither hot nor cold. This should keep the sample as close to your own body temperature as possible. If passing the test is absolutely essential putting the sample up your butt and leaving it until you cannot feel warmth or cold (This is how you know it is the same temp as your body). You will need KY jelly for this. Once you get some of the condom up there squeeze the liquid so that it moves into the end up your butt and tuck the rest up there leaving the knot you tied on the outside so that it does not get lost and you are more easily able to retrieve it. you may want to put a couple wet wipes in you underwear as well. Normally they will have you empty your pockets and may pat you down. If you are keeping it in your briefs keeping it under your balls ensures no one will see or feel it if they pat you down. Wear jeans or other course material clothing (this will make it harder to detect). Do NOT wear sweatpants or warm ups. They usually put dye in the toilet water and tell you not to flush or turn on the sink (they are trying to prevent you from diluting your sample with water, which can lower the amount of drugs in your urine to undetectable levels but may also change the specific gravity of your sample. Simply put they may be able to tell you diluted the sample and this method is not guaranteed to work. Only substituting clean pee will ensure a negative result. This will not work at probation as they watch you but works like a charm for pre-employment testing. Once you are alone in the room carefully (so as to not spill) bite of the reservoir tip of the condom and put the clean urine in the sample cup. Use the wet wipes to clean up any mess. DO NOT throw anything away at the testing facility. Put the condom and wet wipes back in your underwear or in a sock until you leave the premises. They will test the temperature immediately so you will know right away it you got away with it (they may not tell you anything but if you carefully and nonchalantly look at the paperwork you can see if they check the box stating it is the right temp, locate this box yourself ahead of time when the initially give you the paperwork so you don't look too interested in what they are writing). DO NOT get caught looking over their shoulder to see what they are writing as this makes you look guilty and may make them suspicious. It would be best to be as uninterested in what they are writing as you can. Try to stay calm and casual. Remember you don't do drugs so you have no reason to be nervous. The key to this method is to have clean pee and to leave it in your underwear for long enough that it equals your body temp. It should feel neither hot nor cold when it is the right temp (this is very important). Make sure the sample you are bringing is from a reliable source with no drugs (make sure to ask about prescription medications as well as they will detect them in the sample). If you need to store clean urine for a future date it can safely be frozen for quite a long time (up to a year). Sometimes when you thaw it (I do it slowly in the microwave on defrost) it comes out cloudy. This can be fixed by filtering it through a coffee filter. You must leave enough time (hours) for the sample to equalize with your body temp. Again it should feel neither hot nor cold against your skin. You can get it too hot defrosting it, try not to, but if you do allow it to cool in your briefs until it no longer feel warm or hot. Faster results are possible when you put it up your butt and remember non-lubricated condoms(you do not want any chemicals from spermicide in your sample). DO NOT use any other container. A condom is ideal as it will readily transfer heat to or from the sample and will mold itself to your body. Also they are very strong (do not try to use a plastic bag as it may break) so you can be confident no accidents will occur. I have done this every time I have taken a drug test for work and have always passed. If you are subject to random testing powdered urine can be obtained on the internet. Keep a condom full of the appropriate amount of water in you underwear(along with the powdered urine stored seperately) at all times. If you carry pee around all the time it will spoil and smell. Powdered urine can be kept for a long time. If you always keep these on your person (remember not to store it in your pockets as you will be searched and may not have time to reposition it into your underwear. Also in your briefs the water will stay the correct temperature. Powdered urine is now illegal in some areas so you may need to have it mailed to someone in a state where it is still legal first. Real pee from a clean source is ideal but if you can be tested at any time powdered urine and water can be kept on you at all times without spoiling. A final tip, stay calm and disinterested in the process. Be polite and follow the instructions of the tester (until you are alone in the bathroom). Focus on breathing if you start to feel nervous. Just remember you will pass the test no problem if you follow these instructions carefully, so really you have no reason to be nervous. Usually your sample will be sent away to a lab for the actual drug testing after the temperature of your sample has been measured. The only two things you need to be careful of are having the sample be the right temp(remember it will feel neither hot nor cold against your skin when the temp is right) and make sure you do not spill the sample. Make sure you bring about 4 liquid oz of urine(you must fill the cup up to a certain line and 4oz should be a little more than you need. When you have filled the sample cup put the lid on securely and pee in the toilet (This way it will seem like a real sample to anyone listening and when they come in to flush the toilet the blue die will be green (do not flush yourself or you will have to provide a new sample). If you follow this simple procedure you will never fail a drug test. It has been done successfully by yours truly on several occasions. If you put the condom up your butt make sure to bring wet wipes as you will not be allowed to run any water in the testing room and you don't want to come out with doo doo on your hands. It is not really uncomfortable as it is a small amount and is flexible (it will shape itself to your colon's contours) Up the butt virtually guarantees correct temperature and will avoid any chance of detection. When it no longer feels cool or warm you are in business. Good luck(although this method eliminates the need for luck)
