Question 1

would percocet pain pills and hydrocodone cough syrup show up as the same on a urine drug test?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Both will show in drug test.

Question 2

if i took 6 5/325 mg hydrocodone throughout the day yesterday (technically wednesday) and have a urine screening for opiates/opiods friday at 4:15pm, will i pass? my doctor is doing the test because i threw out my percocet prescribed for my kidney stones

Accepted Answer

Same class: The drugs are on the same class. Don't try to game the system. If you truly need chronic narcotic pain medication, see a pain specialist, usually an anesthesiologist specializing in the treatment of chronic pain. Best solution is to get to the root cause and fix it. If not possible, there are many alternatives to narcotics, which in the long term can make chronic pain worse in some patients. Hope this helps!

Question 3

how long will six percocet 5 stay in your urine, and two norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) fives?

Accepted Answer

Drugs in the system: Firstly one would have to ask why is this important information? More implrtantly taking 5 percocets and 2 Norcos (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) at one time is bad practice.

Question 4

is the medicine norco (hydrocodone and acetaminophen) stronger then loratab or percocet? what is the difference?

Accepted Answer

Opiates: There is no difference between these addicting and dangerous forms of opiates.

Question 5

hydrocodone was prescribed before surgery & percocet after. both relieved pain. they make me sleepy but i can't sleep.  no decent in over 10 days?

Accepted Answer

Insomnia: The efficacy of opioids in acute pain such as post surgical pain is well established. However, adding NSAID to the mix is a standard of care. When pain is accompanied by inflammation, nsaids are more effective than opioids in managing pain.
Postoperative insomnia could be managed with hypnotic medication.
Rec.: consult with your surgeon.

Question 6

please help! what is the differece between hydrocodone and oxycodone the active ingredients in vicodin and percocet?

Accepted Answer

Opiates: Hydrocodone is derived from codeine. It is given by mouth/rectal/intranasal routes. Oxycodone is derived from thebaine. It is administered by oral/rectal/intranasal/epidural/transdermal routes.

Question 7

how long will 60mg of hydrocodone be detectable in a urine drug screen that is sent to a lab?

Accepted Answer

Why?: I don't see that you are on this drug but I guess for information only, it could be picked up in the urine up to 4 days after it was last used. This medication can be very addictive and should not be used unless specifically prescribed by a physician and only for the condition it is supposed to treat. Good luck.

Question 8

im prescribed 5/325 hydrocodone/acetaminophen 2 times per day. if i dont take daily, how many days before test should i take as prescribed to show appropriate amount in my urine test for pain management?

Accepted Answer

: Take meds as prescribed as much as possible. In case you decide to stop or do not need it ( if prescribed as needed), let your doc know, take your vial with you for pill count as well. You do not have to take pills to keep your drug screen positive as long as you communicate clearly with prescriber.

Question 9

i've been on 130mg of methadone for 8months i am now stopping when will i be able to feel the effects of other opioids like percocets and hydrocodone?

Accepted Answer

This is complicated: This is a complicated issue. There could be withdrawal issues and then there are tolerance issues. You need to be followed closely by the pain clinic

Question 10

is hydrocodone the same as oxycodone? i'm allergic to hydrocodone and they gave me percocet and i had the same reaction as hydrocodone.

Accepted Answer

The same: both are opioids, but define what kind of reaction you had to either, was it itching, redness, ? those are rather side effects of the opiods in general not a true allergy, at any rate if you don't feel comfortable taking them, stop and ask your doctor for an alternative analgesic, a potent NSAID would do as good, wish you wellness
