Can you take oxycodone to get off hydrocodone?
It may help with the withdrawls yes, but hten you are going to be addicted to the pain pill so it's best just to go to the hospital and have them detox you in the ER and go home and tough it out as bad as it seems!! Good luck friend!
What would Vicodin be marketed as in Mexico?
It is available under the same brand names available in the U.S. ie Vicodin, Watson, Malliinkrodt etc. Vicodin is just a brand name containing the same chemical makeup as Watsons and Mallinkrodt. Mexico imports many of its medications from the large U.S. drug companies.
I have rheumatoid arthritis and have tried both. The yellow is stronger (to me) than the white. Yellow 10-325 I need only 2 daily to 4 daily for the white. My pharmacy alternates between the 2. I am not going to refill the whites unless I can't find the yellows. This will probably require some legwork but it'll be worth it.
Is taking two Vicodin 750 the same as takinking two Vicodin 500?
Not necessarily.
Vicodin is a combination of hydocodone and acetaminophen/paracetamol(APAP).
Vicodin is available in:
5mg hydrocodone / 500mg APAP
7.5mg hydrocodone / 750mg APAP
10mg hydrocodone / 660mg APAP
Therefore, if you take one 10mg pill containing 660mg APAP instead of taking two 5mg pills each containing 500mg APAP for a combined total of 1000mg APAP, you will, in essence, be receiving less of a drug that reduces inflamation and assists in relieving pain.
In addition, ingesting too much APAP will cause great stress to your liver, so when managing severe pain you may want to monitor that.
Moreover, taking one 5mg pill at one time then another 5mg pill at a later time will NOT heed the same results as taking two 5mg pills at the same time. (half lives, metabolic absorbtion, etc.)

How do you get doctor to give pain meds?
The last thing you want to do is ask up front - in today's climate, even with the medical community more aware of opiates as a viable therapy, simply asking for pain meds will likely get you tagged as a drug seeker, and it'll really hamper yourself in the long run if you've got real pain issues.
If you've got real problems, then start keeping a Pain Diary. PD's are commonly used by first-time chronic pain patients (and even short term acute pain patients) to document their pain over time, giving the doctor a visual record of your problem, especially if there's nothing evident on X-rays, MRI's, CT's, etc. Real pain and recording it is extremely difficult to fake - most doctors, and other pain patients like myself, can easily tell when someone is BS'ing about having pain bad enough to require pain meds.
You also need to show that you've tried alternate meds and therapies, which is something most patients are willing to do; they just want a quick remedy for pain. Problem is, real pain has no quick remedy.
Seeing a Pain Specialist is also preferable than a General Practitioner, since they're authorized to prescribe more pain meds than regular doctors are. Regular doctors and the groups they belong to tend to pull back from any long-term prescriptions involving pain meds that are Schedule II (Duragesic, Percocet, Morphine, etc.), and even Schedule III and IV drugs (Vicodin, Codeine mixes, etc.)

What strength of Vicodin has M366?
Note that I got this information from the internet, not a PDR, so before relying on this you might want to double-check with a physician or pharmacist. (That said, I found several sites that agreed and which at least appeared to have other valid information, so I suspect this is probably correct).
The M367 imprint appears on tablets which contain 325 mg of apap (Tylenol) and 10 mg of hydrocodone bitartrate. The apap/acetaminophen/paracetemol (all different names for the same chemical compound) portion is there partly for its value as a pain reliever in its own right and partly to discourage abuse, since taking too much of it causes severe liver damage.
Can you take Vicodin for leg pain?
It depends on what you mean by work. Vicodin is prescribed for severe pain, most often after surgeries or for people with chronic pain. So if you're asking if Vicodin will mask your back pain, then yes, it most likely will. Now as for solving your back problem, a pain pill will not do anything. Vicodin is only for pain relief.
If you have a real reason to take percocet, and you have been for awhile, then yes. Pain pills are prescribed for people in serious pain who need it to function normally and live a normal pain free life. But you should always follow pre-caution while working anything dangerous.
Dont bother, trust me, it's a waste of a pill. Back in the day, I thought it would be cool to crush up some Vicodin, mix it in a joint and smoke it. It did absolutely nothing... All it does is taste nasty. Plus, all you're really smoking is tylenol. Try parachuting, crush up the pill in a tiny piece of tissue, twist up the top, put it in the back of your throat and swallow. That should improve the effects you're looking for.
Street value for 500 mg vicodin?
about 8 to 10 bucks max. unless of course you sling em out to jitterbug that don't know what they're doing. be careful consuming that much at one time if you aren't used to the medication. 500mgs will mess you up something fierce, if , you can stay awake long enough to enjoy it. I hope I have been of some help to you. be careful and have fun.
Is ibuprofen and Vicodin the same thing?
Yes you can take vicodin with flexeril. I recently hurt my neck and I was prescribed both of these. The only thing that I suggest is that if you are going to take them both at the same time, wait until the evening, because both will make you very drowsy. The first couple of nights of taking them, I woke up in the middle of the night and was pretty out of it mentally, but that wore off.
New Answer:
I was prescribed to take 1 Flexeril and 1-2 hydrocodone (vicodin) before bed. I was in an extreme amount of pain the first night so I took 1 and 2 respectfully. When I work up in the morning I felt great, until I sat up in bed. I was incredibly dizzy and drowsy. Somehow I made it to work, though I probably shouldn't have driven, but I felt like I was ready to pass out until about 3 in the afternoon. The hydrocodone has a much stronger effect, so I only took half a tab last night and today has been much better, and my pain is still controlled. I'm still a little drowsy as I'm taking the flexeril three times a day, but nothing like yesterday. Hope that helps.
Since these are both medications which need a Dr.s prescription, you should follow their instructions. However, Flexeril and Vicoden are often prescribed together. Flexeril is a muscle relaxant and Vicoden is a narcotic for pain.
Flexeril, if taken one half hour to one hour before consumption, will intensify the muscle relaxant, painkilling effects of hydrocodone. If you find that just hydrocodone (with or without tylenol) doesn't do enough for back spasms, the muscle relaxant in Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) will help tremendously. Be warned that Flexeril is also sometimes prescribed as a sleep-aid, so if you're going to be driving or doing anything that requires you to be alert, take half of what you would normally take (of both medicines) so you can gauge the effects on your coordination. Do NOT drink (period) on opiates, and especially not with Flexeril added into the mix. You may or may not fall asleep or nod off unexpectedly, may become physically ill or find an intense loss of coordination.
This combinatin of medications is often prescribed together; one being a muscle relaxant and the other a painkiller. Be careful not to exceed dosage.
How long does it take to get addicted to vicodin?
The answer is simple and complex at the same time. Due to differences in the chemical and behavioral makeup in every human there is no black and white answer to "how long". The shorter the use, the better but only because the longer the use the more chances there are to mis-use the medication. It is very difficult to get "addicted", or dependent, on any narcotic as long as it is being directly used for pain that is PRESENT at the time you take it. It's when someone starts taking the medication when pain ISN'T present is when problems begin. It starts out innocently enough, you know how bad it hurt before and you don't want the pain to return so you take a pill. When you transition to taking the medication to prevent the pain from returning is when you first begin to become dependent.
Avoid this transition and only take the medication to control current pain and your good to go.
Cinnaron is the name of a drug that is manufactured by JD Pharmaceuticals. It contains the active ingredient Cinnazarine. It only comes in 25 mg doses and is prescribed for vertigo.
Can you take vicodin and hydroxycut at the same time?
Vicodin lowers your heart rate, so theoretically taking Vicodin with Phentermine would help balance the increased heart rate of the Phentramine. Im currently taking Adipex which is a form of Phentramine and the increased heart rate makes me uncomfortable, taking a vicodin helps calm it down and feels back to normal. It certainly does not speed up my heart even more.
I'm a teenager taking both and there is really nothing out of the ordinary from what my doctor tells me, though I have a regularly low heart rate. I've been taking phentermine for about three months now. Also, I have to take Vicodin 5500 4 times daily.
They're fine together unless you have an allergic reaction.
Does vicodin show up on DOT drug test?

How long does it take for medication to leave the body?

Can taking vicodin raise your liver enzymes?
Yes. If you take to much of the medication, it can eat your organs like acid. The same can be said for morphine, norco, oxycotton. If taken according to directions, it will not harm the vital organs. If taken for an extended period of time, they all have the possibility of causing serious damage, including, but not limited to, rapid deterioration of the liver, kidney's, stomach, pancrius, and intestines. It is important that you talk to your doctor before taking any narcotics.
