Hydrocodone

Hydrocodone is a fast-acting pain reliever for mild/severe pain that is often prescribed to take as needed for pain not surpassing a certain amount over a period of time, such as no more than one every 4-6 hours. Oxycontin is a time-released pain reliever for severe/chronic pain that is prescribed at certain intervals of time, such as every 8 hours. You take Oxycontin at given, prescribed intervals due to the time release.

After taking Hydrocodone wait about 30 minutes to go to sleep. When the Hydrocodone kicks in you will feel it.

I would suggest only doing so if prescribed but yes Norco and Dilaudid can be used together for severe pain. Be aware they can lower your blood pressure and your respirations.

It keeps you from going through withdrawal, yes, but depending on what u r used to taking makes the difference. Example: 2mg dilaudid is like taking 2 perc 10's. dilaudid is stroger there is no acetametaphan it is a form of morphine. Hydromorphone is the generic name. I am prescribed 4mgs dilaudid also lasts a lot longer for pain and withdrrawal. con for me is that it makes me feel too "high"

Very dangerous! You are risking respiratory failure!!! Cymbalta is the only safe drug in the mix!!!!!

The answer depends on how much hydrocodone you were taking daily and for how long (days, weeks, months, etc). Edit your question and then repost. I am not a medical professional but I've been through what your asking, a few times too many, so I could help if I had some specifics.

3 to 5 days depending on your metabolism, how much water you drink, sweating alot...etc. To be safe I would wait at least 7 days. You should be completely cleared by then unless of course you were taking mega-doses ( more than 100 mgs ) per day. In which case I would give that at least 10 days.

In all the literature and articles I have read, opiate clearance times are always listed as 3-5 days.

Lortab is stronger Darvocet A500 only contains 100 mg of proxyphene which is prescribed for mild to moderate pain,while hydrocodone at any dose is stronger and prescribed for moderate to severe pain.As along time suffer of degenerative arthritis I am familiar and well read on any painkiller out there.i have chosen to take Darvocet because the withdrawals are no where near as bad as Lortab and darvocet A500 contains less Tylenol which is easier on your liver and allows you to supplement with otc painkillers.If you asked this question because your doctor had been prescribing Lortab and changed you to Darvocet take his advice and take the darvocet ,cause the likelihood you need anything stronger is slim and you are probably subconciously wanting to get high and you are treading on dangerous ground.

What is the shelf life of Hydroco/apap 7.5?

You can give it about 2 years. If you take it after that time, it won't usually hurt you, but it probably won't work as well. However, it's advisable to call a pharmacist to check, since there are other factors. Remember that there are many 24 hour pharmacies, so it shouldn't be a problem to find a pharmacist to talk to.

Yes. There are particular panels on drug screen tests. Hydrocodone (vicoden) tests positive for general "opiates". There is a special panel for oxycodone.

Vicaprofen often which is hydro codone and IBprofen

No it does not. My friend smoked a day before his drug test and it didn't show.

Do you want to come off opioids completely? It depends where the pain is but there are other options such as anti-inflammatory medications, implantable pumps, nerve blocks, etc. Also some people get relief from physical therapy, massage or acupuncture.

Depending on what you take now you can switch to a long acting pain medication such as MS Contin or Oxycontin and then you would likely require smaller doses of a short acting medication for breakthrough pain. You may also need to take Methadone during the process of coming off your meds. It's very important to see a doctor who specializes in pain management or go to a pain clinic where they are experienced in dealing with different kinds of pain and medication issues. Most regular health care providers are not fluent or comfortable with managing complex pain issues especially when opioids are involved. It would be likely in that case that you would not receive adequate pain management and would end up in the same situation you are now.

Good luck!

According to WebMD, you can take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications with Celebrex. Your doctor or pharmacist will also tell you additional medications you should not take.

It is probably a good idea to talk to a doctor about this. Normally on their own, it would be fine; together, they might cause some problems.

No. Darvocet contains the opioid propoxyphene napsylate and the non-narcotic analgesic acetaminophen (Tylenol). Ultram contains the drug tramadol.

anywhere from $5-$10 per pill, depending how nice and how close you are to your source

Lortab 10 is the highest dosage. I believe 3 is the lowest, then 5, then 7.5, then 10.

THE LOWEST DOSE OF HYDROCODONE IS 2.5 AND THE HIGHEST IS 15....ALTHOUGH THE 10 MG DOSE IS LOTS MORE COMMON THAN THE 15 MG

I believe that you might have bigger problems than hydrocodone, your liver would shut down from aspirin overdose before you would die from the hydrocodone, it would take alot

Hydrocodone is definitely secreted into your breast milk. That said, it is safe to use while nursing, although certainly the ideal would be to avoid medication when possible. I unfortunately had to deliver my first child via c-section, since she was in breech position. Knowing that I was nursing my daughter, my doctor still prescribed hydrocodone and ibuprofen. Her reasoning was that the benefits of the medication, relief from the pain of surgery, would enable me to care for my child better. It's very important to manage pain so that it doesn't get out of control. At first I took the medication as frequently as prescribed and needed, but as the pain lessened, I could space it out, and eventually I was hardly taking it at all. I do prefer to avoid all medication while nursing, but there are situations where it is certainly worth it to get some relief. Evaluate your scenario with that in mind.

no, I failed a drug test thinking they would show up the same.

I believe it is 47 or 48.

Addiction is not defined on how many per day, but on how many days you can go without one. If you feel as if you cannot go on without it, then it is an addiction.

Usually, if the surgery is complicated, you take antibiotics after the wisdom teeth extraction. Some dentists might recommend to start taking the antibiotics a day prior to the surgery and then continue for about a week.
