How long does it take to get oxycodone out of your system and pass a pee test?

yes, all opiates will produce a positive result. the liver metabolizes hydrocodone into oxycodone metabolite thus showing positive result for an opiate even though the person was taking hydrocodone. this is the standard for detection of hydrocodone and oxycodone. furthermore, morphine is tested with a positive result detecting codeine. however, methadone is metabolized a little differently and thus tests will show positive for methadone if testing is done on methadone differentially. if a test looking for opiates in general, then it will be positive for any and all opiates at that time. likewise, other tests can specifically look for heroin, morphine, and methadone. i do not believe testing differentiates b/t hydrocodone and oxycodone because of the aforementioned so the answer to your question is yes.(for use only as general advice, please use further personal research to validate and confirm these statements.)

Is Percocet Addiction a real problem?

It sure is. Latest studies have shown in the last 10 years that prescription drug addiction has doubled. Percocet can mislead the user, because it isn't as strog as Oxycontin, but the truth is that its just as addictive and dangerous.

Street value for 30 mg percocet?

They make percocets in strengths of 2.5/325, 5/325, 7.5/325, 7.5/500, 10/325, and 10/650. The first number is the oxycodone, the second is APAP (Tylenol). They do make an assortment of oxycodone pills (including 30 mg). But without the Tylenol they aren't percocets.

And the street value for oxycodone varies greatly depending on your area. But around me it is around 50 cents a mg. Some places people pay a dollar a mg.

How do you get off Percocet 10325?

Most opiate addiction can be reversed using methadone as an interim agent to reduce withdrawal symptoms as the opiates are slowly decreased in a stepwise fashion. Alternatively, decreasing taper doses of benzodiazepines (like Ativan or Xanax) along with clonidine (to reduce physical symptoms of withdrawal) have been utilized with significant success. Both are done under medically supervised monitoring protocols.

Does Percocet give an opiate positive drug screen?

no there is a special test that has to be run for oxycodone

hats the dumbest thing i ever heard of course oxys show up as opiates.

Actually, don't answer if you don't know what you are talking about. I am on a methadone clinic which tests urine constantly. I don't know if you are being sarcastic or not. Oxycontin shows up as oxycodone. If you have a script for oxy and and use heroin you cannot get over. Even though it is an opiate it metabolizes

into its own category. So it is an opiate but on the test our clinic uses it further breaks it into its own category (oxycodone).

Is mixing percocet and robax platinum ok?

From Drugs.com drug interaction checker:

oxycodone (Ingredient of Percocet 10/325) and Robaxin (methocarbamol) (Moderate Drug-Drug interaction)MONITOR: Central nervous system- and/or respiratory-depressant effects may be additively or synergistically increased in patients taking multiple drugs that cause these effects, especially in elderly or debilitated patients.

You should be fine as long as you are not an opiate naive patient or have had problems with either drug in the past causing strong CNS or respiratory problems.

----

The major problem is caused by the "acet" part of both drugs... Percocet AND robaxacet contains acetaminophen.. and you should never never exceed 4 000 mg in 1 day... (1000 mg per dose).

What is Percocet and what is it used for?

Percocet is the trade name of the combination medication oxycodone and acetaminophen. It comes in various strengths and under various names.

Oxycodone is an opioid agonist analgesic used for control of moderate to severe pain. It works on the central (brain and spinal cord) opioid receptors, more specifically the mu receptors, although it does have some crossover onto other receptors. By binding to opioid receptors, it modulates pain reception and the subjective experience of pain.

Acetaminophen, known by the trade name Tylenol, is an analgesic and antipyretic, acting in the brain to decrease prostaglandin release, at the site of pain. Decreased prostaglandin release results in less firing of pain receptors at the site of pain. Acetaminophen has also been proven to work synergistically with opioid pain medications, such as oxycodone (percocet), hydrocodone (vicodin), or codeine (Tylenol #2,#3,#4), so the analgesic effect is more than the opioid component alone could provide.

Percocet, as a combination product, is used for the control of moderate to severely painful conditions when oral analgesics are felt to be indicated.

What is the difference between Percocet 5 325 mg and Percocet 10 325mg?

Lorcet has 10 MG's of Hydrocodone in it with 650 MG of Acetaminophen. Percocet 5-325 has 5MG's of Oxycodone and 325 MG's of Tylenol/Acetaminophen. Oxycodone in itself is stronger than Hydrocodone. As for me personally, I would rather have the Percocet. However the hydrocodone in the 10 MG strength is a strong dose and you should be very careful taking either as you did not state the purpose for using the medication.

How long does skunk stay in the system?

The length of time that cannabinoids say in your system after ingesting cannabis varies greatly depending upon several factors that influence the elimination rate. Variables such as the amount of marijuana ingested. the manner of ingestion, the duration and frequency of use and metabolic rate all affect how quickly marijuana is eliminated from the system. The longer the duration and the greater the frequency the longer it will take to eliminate the cannabinoids from your system. Studies indicate that for occasional marijuana use or a single even,t the average elimination period is 3-4 days and no longer than seven; however for chronic users cannabinoids may be detected for as long as 67 days after usage stops.

Which is stronger vicoden or percosets?

these are in two different drug classes, so one cannot really make an answer to that. vicodin is an opiate painkiller, while carisoprodol is a skeletal muscle relaxant. so i guess in terms of "strength" of addiction properties, vicodin is stronger (and may have more of an euphoric effect)

Will marijuana show up in tests as an opiate?

last guy: No THC is THC, the chemical found in marijuana. An opiate is a form of herion such as morphine or Oxycontin.

pip313: Technically it is a opioid because it has activity at opiate receptors, demerol is an "opioid" because it is fully synthetic with no structural simularity to anything the poppy plant produces. No one questions demeral being an opioid THC has the same quality's (again activity at the opiate receptors , at least the mu receptor)
