Question 1

hi i currently got my wisdom teeth taken out and i have been on clindamycin, hydrocodone, and ibuprofen do these medications make depo-provera less effective?

Accepted Answer

No,: The antibiotics and opioids do not affect the effectiveness of any form of hormonal birth control. This includes Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone). For more information ask your surgeon.

Question 2

can medication(hydrocodone, ibuprofen and penicillin  be passed to me through semen and affect my birth control ?

Accepted Answer

Birth control: This is more than unlikely. Although I always say that nothing is impossible this comes very close. Would not worry about this. Best wishes.

Question 3

is there on over-the-counter pill i can take that's similar to hydrocodone-ibuprofen?

Accepted Answer

Yes and no: This combination includes a narcotic. You cannot get a narcotic over-the-counter. Better still you maythere red the narcotic. A lot of nsaids are just as efficient as this narcotic combination. It is better to avoid the narcotic. Cardiologist told us use narcotics and not nsaids in older people to prevent NSAID cardiovascular side effects and then the elderly had more narcotic complications -falls.

Question 4

is it okay to take expired hydrocodone-ibuprofen?

Accepted Answer

Not recommended: This would not be recommended as there would be a decrease in effectiveness.

Question 5

what is the different in hydrocodone ibuprofen and ibuprofen that you buy in the store.?

Accepted Answer

One has opiates: The former has opiates(hydrocodone) which are controlled substances and requires a prescription.  The latter does not and can be bought otc.  As you may expect, the former has a habit forming potential associated with it.

Question 6

can hydrocodone, ibuprofen, ondansetron, and penicillin vk tablets from wisdom teeth removal delay my period? i've also been very stressed this month.

Accepted Answer

Possible: Stress and some medications can have the effect of delaying your period however if you are unsure as to whether you could possibly be pregnant please check with a pregnancy test which you can obtain over the counter or see your health care provider

Question 7

a friend was prescribed hydrocodone/ibuprofen 7.5/200 for pain from an abscess tooth. one doesn't seem to help. can she take two the next time?

Accepted Answer

No: It may be too much hydrocodone at one time. Is she also taking an antibiotic? The infection needs to be brought under control and that may take a day or two. Have her speak to her dentist who will be treating her for the abscess.

Question 8

accidentally took 20mg of flexeril (cyclobenzaprine hcl) and hydrocodone/ibuprofen 7.5-200mg for my chronic back pain. is that too much?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Try very hard to avoid such accidents. They can be serious. 20mg is a high single dose. Neither is intended for more than short term. The combo increases chance/severity of side effects. Definitely talk to Dr who gave the Rx(s) for clear safe instructions. I hope your pain finds relief, but it may need things other than drugs. Be careful, best wishes!

Question 9

is it safe to mix hydrocodone, ibuprofen, and naproxen or aspirin?

Accepted Answer

Not recommended: This would not be recommended as it would increase the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding.

Question 10

please explain if it is safe to mix hydrocodone, ibuprofen, and naproxen sodium or aspirin?

Accepted Answer

No: One should neither mix metaphors nor nsaids and Ibuprofen negates the cardioprotective aspects of aspirin.
