What are the long-term side affects of Fentanyl use?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Supposedly there isn't any long term research data on Fentanyl use or other opiates.

However, I can tell you that after 9 years of using 100 micro patches at doses of 100 and 200 (2 x 100 patches) that I don't have any problems with it. I also use a rather large quantity of Percocet 10/325's for breakthrough pain (120/150 per month) and I have no ill effects from that either. I've used both for the same period, and use other less potent opiates prior to using these.

Can you mix Prozac and morphine sulfate?

Asked by Wiki User

Most definitely not. I would never try mixing medications without contacting your doctor or pharmacist first.

Some drugs are extremely fatal if mixed. Don't do it- Do you really want to be known as the person that died of an erection?

Can you use Clonidine for opiate withdrawal?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most definitely! I'm currently am being weaned down from methadone. I was at 128mgs and I'm not on 92mgs. Still have a long way to go! I wanted to do it "slowly" for about a year. My psychiatrist is giving me only 6months to come off. I would much rather be on my psych meds than the methaone!

My PCP started me on Clonidine a few months ago. First I was taking .1mg twice a day then on top of the two he prescrbed my .2mgs a night. If you were ever in rehab the nurses usually give you a a Clonidine Patch(Catapress). When you are withdrawaling from a certain drug like Methadone or even a Benzo. The Clonodine does seem to help your blood pressure, severe anxiety, relaxation and sleep. The FDA approved therapeutic effect taking Clonidine is for blood pressure. (Clonidine is used "off label" for MANY other things like restless leg syndrome, severe cancer pain from radiation, and even ADHD or ADD) Now depending on where you are detoxing from, will definitely make a difference in the severity and lenght of your detox. If you are at home, you have the opportunity to get other medications like Ativan.(Ativan seems to be the one the medical field uses the most.) Thankfully, I was prescribed a lot of medications throughout this hell!

Klonopin 1mg 4 times a day for anxiety. Promethazine or Phenergan that really helps with some of my nausea 25mgs every 2-6hrs. Zanaflex 4mgs one every 4hrs to relax my tense muscles and headaches, Seroquel which I was prescribed for a mood disorder is used off label for anxiety and insomnia. I take Remeron for sleep/depression and Celexa for a particular phobia. I take Imitrex 100mgs as directed for migraine. I take a med with three ingredients for migraine/tension headaches. I was on Midrin for my headaches up until, apparently, they didn't have all of the ingredients/raw materials to make Midrin. Now they put me on a drug called "Prodrin." Prodrin is also made up of 3 ingredients, but instead of the sedative combo(Chloral Hydrate and something else) I get caffeine instead! Hell, caffeine causes a lot of my headaches. It's not from withdrawing from it, because I rarely consume it.

Finally,eat healthy foods in moderation. Drink LOTS of fluids preferably without caffeine or alcohol(natural Laxis) acting like I've already come off methadone because of all of the advice I've made. Toxins from years of drug use like to retire in your fat tissue. Methadone is especially prone to do that. For an example, you consumed a methadone dose of 60mgs. When you come up the next day, you dose again at 60mgs. Now, from a legitimate source with a doctorites degree and specializes in drugs and the body, there is robably 10mgs from yesterday. I'm probably not saying it right. Anyway, take care to all and beat this demon for good!!

Does methadone show up as an opiate in a hair drug test?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No methadone does not come from the opium poppy. it is all synthetic and made in a lab. All it does is cover the opiate receptors in the brain. you need a whole other test for methadone. Suboxone may come up as an opiate in a hair test because it isn't all synthetic.

Can zophran test positive for opiates?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Each of these medications are for different conditions. Cipro is an antibiotic to treat an infection. Morphine is to treat moderate to severe pain and is considered an opioid. Cocaine, which as you know, is considered as an "anesthetic" or a "local " but, it is not an opioid. If you were being tested for opiates, then you would be positive. Zofran is used to treat nausea. The combinations of these drugs will not cause a positive result for Cocaine. If you are being tested for opiates,then you should get a note from your Doc that prescribed/ordered the Morphine.

Stick it back on the shelf in the store. If you can find out when the test is five days ahead of time, just don't do any opiates - yes, easier said than done - for those five days, and let your body clean itself out.

Would vicodin show up as an opiate in a urine test?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In short yes, most likely Vicodin will cause your drug test to be positive.

However, the reason is not because it comes up as an Opiate. There is a separate section specifically for Hydrocodone. The reason for this being that Vicodin is not a natural occurring Opiate. It contains the semi-synthetic opiate Hydrocodone.

Not -all- tests will include Hydrocodone on their test. Although, there is a very high probability that a test will include it.

On a positive note, it will be out of your system within 2-4 days from the last time you used it.
