Can you take oxycodone and trazodone together?

Depends on your tolerance but I snort 3 (15mg each) oxycodone pills and wait a hour then take 2 (50mg each) trazodones. I sleep extremely well with the two mixed but as I said before it depends on your tolerance and dosage.

Can Oxycontin and oxycodone-acedaminaphen be taken at the same time?

That is a question you need to ask your doctor or pharmacist.

It doesn't make sense for your doctor to prescribe 2 different brands of the same medication expecting you to take them both.

Most likely your doctor messed up - but maybe not, the pharmacist should have alerted you.

Call your pharmacy or doctor right away to find out.

Does percocet and roxicodone show up the same in a drug test?

Yes both are opiates, a derivitive of the poppy plant, just like heroine. The only difference between pain medication is the amount of milligrams, and what its cut with, ie tylenol, aspirin, ibuprofen, etc.

What happens if you take 6 ambien and 10 percocet within 24 hours?

Depends on your body weight and your tolerance to either drug. I know some people who would feel pretty good after taking that combination, and some people who would be dead after taking that. If you can take 6 Ambien and 10 Percocet within 24 hours and still be awake, then you should more than likely seek professional help for your drug problem. Hell, even if you have to take 10 Percocet in a day to feel the effect you should seek counseling. Today it's 10 Percocet, but tomorrow you will be buying two OC 80's a day. Keep that in check.

Can you tell the difference between Oxycontin and methadone in a drug test?

Yes they can tell the difference in Methadone and hydrocodone Methadone has to be tested separately in a test it is not on the 5 panel test. Hydrocodone however is an opiate and will show up as an opiate. Methadone is a synthetic opiate and is in a class all of its own. Methadone tricks the brain into thinking that its still has heroin/opiates in the body it works the same in the brain. So to answer your question they would have to test separate for methadone. It is two totally different drug classes.

I personally don't think on a dipstick they can. Methadone is still an opiate. I took it for years with loracet and never saw the dr tell a difference. Sorry to tell ya.

Is it safe to take percocet and vicodin while pregnant?

Yes, while prego with my youngest two i did every day and they are fine. Doc even prescribed at one point. Percoset is sometimes seen as better

Can you take oxycodone and lidocaine together?

You absolutely can combine lidocaine and vicodin together as Lidocaine contains NO acetaminophen.

Which is better for pain management hydromorphone hcl 16 mg or oxycodone hcl 60 mg?

Both opiate medications are very powerful painkillers that achieve the exact same results. The hydromorphone has 16mg of opiates and the oxycodone has 60mg of opiates. Both are time release so don't cut them in half and then take them or you could overdose.

Its always best to take the lowest dosage that works and increase that dose only when the lower dose is no longer working. Whatever you do be sure to stay in contact with your doctor before making any changes in dosage of any medication but this is especially true with any opiate medication.

It's also a good idea to have some Narcan on hand just in case of an accidental overdose . Narcan can and will will save your life. Your doctor can prescribe Narcan for you and it's cheep..

Opiate pain medication is highly addictive and that addiction will creep up on you and you won't see it until it's late. Take it from an old veteran it's no fun being addicted to opiates then trying to get clean. It will be one of the hardest things to have to go through. Unfortunately for most addicts it usually doesn't end well.

Take Care, Stay safe and good luck!

Does Tylenol help Oxycontin work?

You can take a plain Tylenol (acetaminophen) along with oxycodone if it is plain oxycodone. Do not take too much acetaminophen - if your oxycodone already has acetaminophen or APAP in it, don't take more on top of what's already there.

If you have a morphine allergy can you take oxycodone for severe pain management?

No, you cannot. since hydromorphone is morphine with an extra oxygen molecule that allows it to pass through the blood brain barrier faster (much like heroin is actually morphine also but with an extra acetyl molecule), you will still have the same allergic reaction. try Oxycodone (percocet) or Hydrocodone (Vicodin) instead.

Is oxycondone 10-350 stronger than 10-325?

Both have 10 MG's of Oxycodone while the 350 and 325 refer to Tylenol or Aspirin products that have been added so 10-350 lets say has 10 MG's of Oxy. and 350 MG of Tylenol. 10-325 has 10 MG Oxy. and 325 MG of Tylenol for example.

How strong is 5mg of oxycodone?

5mg is a very low dose. But it is strong, oxycodone is about 40-50% stronger than morphine, and is 8 times more easily absorbed than morphine. I currently take 30 mg and you have to be careful. It will make you sick.

What is oxycodine?

Oxycodone is the main ingredient in many our pharmacuetical friends; such as percocet, percodan, and of course everyone's favorite--OxyContin! Oxycodone is an opiate, that means it was derived from opium, which comes from a natural growing flower called the "opium poppy." This natural flower has been healing primitive peoples and treating their pain for generations, and through the powers of the magical pharmacist, we can now bring this to you in pill form Because of its healing powers, opium has been derived into many different pharmacuetical medications, such as; morphine, codeiene, oxycodone, and her sister, hydrocodone! (One fuzes with oxygen, the other with hydrogen-- can you guess who??) However, not all opiates are made in pharmacuetical labs nor are they intended to be used to heal people. Substances like black tar, china white, and brown sugar from your local skagg dealer are all forms of Heroin. Heroin is also a member of the opiate family, but he does not heal people like the others, and you cannot pick him up from Pharmacist. You can think of him as oxycodones evil uncle-- kiddies should stay away from Uncle H! So, basically oxycodone is an opiate that uses the magical healing properties of the opium poppy, which can work to numb your pain and make you feel alright! One must be careful though, since many preparations, particularly the popular percocet, are fused with high doses of acetemenephin, which when taked in excess can cause severe liver and kidney damage, or even death. My rule of thumb is-- never take more than 10 pills a day. if you need more, look into a product without the harmful toxin, like our good friend OxyContin!

What mg of Oxycontin is comparable to 30 mg of codeine?

Hydrocodone and Oxycontin contain the same active drug... oxycodone. So 10mg of Hydrocodone and 10 mg of Oxycontin have the same amount of Oxycodone (10 mg) in them. The only difference is that the Hydrocodone contains Tylenol in addition to the Oxycodone. So on the Hydrocodone bottle it might say something like 10/500. So the Hyrocodone in that instance has 10 mg of oxycodone and 500mg of Tylenol.

How long after taking Valium should you wait to take 5mg oxycodone?

Im dying to know the answer to this one to. i took 200mg Valium over 2 nights, waited 2 nights and now im wondering if it is safe to take 10mg of oxycodone (Snort)

I really DOUBT you took that much Valium over 2 nights but if you did and lived I doubt a 10mg oxy is really gonna matter is it BRAINIAC?

Which is stronger 50 mg methadone or 50 mg oxycodone?

Methadone is stronger than oxycodone by up to 5 to 8 times depending on individual differences. Methadone can be used for pain but the typical doses of methadone for narcotic withdrawal are less than would be used for pain. One word of caution, methadone has a longer withdrawal cycle than oxycodone and can last up to two weeks. If the intention is getting off the oxys I would suggest suboxone. Getting off of methadone can be much more difficult than getting off oxys. Having said that, Methadone can work quite well for people with chronic IBS where other anti-diarrheals do not work. Methadone can turn into a life long maintenance, so you should very carefully weigh the alternatives, and if the only alternative is Methadone, then God help you and best of luck. If there are any other alternatives other than methadone, try that first. Methadone should only be the very last resort. Methadone will not provide the long term euphoria that oxys provide. So if the intent is recreational use, you will soon lose the euphoric feeling but still experience withdrawals which by many accounts is far worse than oxys. Methadone is not well suited for recreational use, so if that is the root of the question, do not take it, or you will be sorry. If it is the last resort, it can be a life saver.

Is 500 mg hydrocodone stronger than 5mg oxycodone?

I am not a doctor nor a pharmacist, so my answer is entirely from experience with the two drugs. Naproxen 500 is WEAK in comparison to oxycodone 500. Naproxen if anything is more of a anti inflammatory, oxycodone can get you "high", naproxen not so much.

What happens if you mix oxycodone and Adderall?

ADDERALL OXYCODONE ANSWERAdderall is a stimulant used to treat ADHD or NARCOLEPSY. Oxycodone is a narcotic painkiller used to treat moderate to severe pain. Adderall is a mixture of the two "isomers" (same thing, just mirror images of each like your hands) of amphetamine and Oxycodone/Oxycontin is a narcotic that may slow down your respiratory system. Therefore, they have opposite affects however mixing these medications can be dangerous and you may get an additive affect leading to increased oxycodone in your system and respiratory depression. Adderall will increase your heart rate and therefore will increase the oxycodone in your system that could enhance the euphoric affects, lead to respiratory depression and in certain cases COULD BE FATAL depending on your dose, tolerance and other factors. It is important to discuss with your doctor or pharmacist.

If your doctor prescribed both to you, ASK him because this is not commonly done; usually adderall is prescribed by a doctor in a different field that specialize to treat conditions such as ADHD or Narcolepsy whereas a specialist such as a pain management doctor will treat chronic pain. Still there exceptions and there are doctors such as family doctors that may prescribe pain medication for acute pain and medications such as adderall. It is important to let all doctors know what medications you are being prescribed by your all your doctors to avoid drug/drugs interactions. Of course, also ask your pharmacist if there are any concerns for "drug/drug" interaction. This is extremely important because there are potentially many other medications not discussed here that may have an adverse affects too.

What are the side affects taking percocet and Valium together?

Some side effects of OxyContin include: Drowziness, dizziness, nausea, euphoria, and itchiness.

I would add low blood pressure, especially on standing up from a sitting position. Bad dreams (resulting in disturbed sleep), memory loss and confusion are major ones, with a lack of being able to concentrate and focus. Constipation is common. 'Drowsiness' is too weak a term, I'd prefer sleepiness, especially when trying to concentrate for any length of time.

When your doctor prescribes Oxycontin, he/she should accompany it with an anti-nausea medication, and a laxative.

Added a few years later: taking OC for chronic pain condition, I've noticed that when late with the next 12-hr dose, I get restless legs, diarrhea, headachey, and sometimes, shivers. Also, when the present dose is wearing off, my head gets a bit 'thick'. The very strong and active (sometimes awful) dreams don't reduce in time; they're horrible and exhausting.

Even though it's an advanced pain reliever, do think twice (and more) before taking on OC. It's not a nice medicine to be on, even if it's necessary. Take as low a dose as possible.

How long after taking oxycodone can you take suboxone?

how many mg's of suboxone and for how long were you taking it? and how many mg's of oxycodone are you taking? 4mg of suboxone hangs around for about 24 hrs until the bup starts leaving the receptors and then you will be able to experience a mild high, 32 hrs and you are able to get a buzz and by 40-48 hrs you are completely able to get the full effect of your oxycodone. start with a medium dose at 24 hrs to get the bup to loosen up off the receptors and use your intended dose at 32 hrs. once your first 2 doses wear off your third dose should be enough to kick the rest of the bup off the receptors and let you enjoy your oxycodone. just remember because you don't feel high dosent mean you cant overdose so be careful on that first dose especially and don't go chasing a peak high on your second dose either. if you were on 8mgs of sub, then multiply those time frames by 2, 2mg and divide by half, you get it

How soon will oxycodone show up in urine?

I Have heard 2-4 days. Apparently, it all depends on a number of factors, ie: weight, frequency and amount used ect.... I have also heard that it does not show up on a standard test and has to be tested for seperately, and the test is expensive. If you only use it once or twice a week, I would try and give 3 days before a test. If you are on randoms, find out when they tell you to test and when the lab is open, and how long you have to drop after they tell you and you might have a nice window on the fri night to get high! If you are in a bind, I hear that the best thing is vigorous excercise and drink lots of water and sweat in the sauna!

What does 15mg Oxycontin look like?

A 15 mg morphine is small round light blue tablet with a 15 on one side and an m on the other side.

Does percocet and vicodin show up as the same on a drug test?

Yes, and No. I have been taking offbrand vicodin for back pain. I also drug test every week for probation. I have never tested (preliminary) positive for any drug. Hydrocodone (vicodin) does not show up in a dip stick test for some reason. Morphine almost certainly would give a preliminary positive. They would then send the sample to the lab for further gc/ms testing. They would be able to then discern the difference between the two substances after this lab test.
