Question 1

can i take meloxicam and hydrocodone/acetaminophen 5-325 at the same time?

Accepted Answer

You can: There is no drug interactions between 2 drugs Painkiller and anti-inflammatory for back pain is a great combo. However, hydrocodone/acetaminophen is good for acute pain less than 2 month. Opioids may be indicated in a small subset of patients with chronic benign (nonmalignant) pain that is refractory to all treatment protocols. I rec.: see your pain management for medication adjustment.

Question 2

taking 15mg meloxicam or hydrocodone did not  relieve pain in for arthritic pain in little finger. what else can i take?

Accepted Answer

Seems like: You've tried it already.  However you could substitute the meloxicam for ibuprofen or naproxen OTC to see if that helps more.  If that doesn't help I woful suggest seeing your doctor for other options.

Question 3

can i take hydrocodone, acetiminophen and meloxicam?

Accepted Answer

Hydrocodone &tylenol: I would not take hydrocodone and tylenol (acetaminophen) together as both of these medication contain tylenol (acetaminophen) and over dose of tylenol (acetaminophen) can cause liver damage. Ibuprofen is a better substitute for tylenol (acetaminophen). I would call your physician and see if he can recommend what to take for your pain.

Question 4

the hydrocodone with acetaminophen isnt helping post sinus surgery (3 days ago) being its soft tissue swelling causing the pain would a anti-inflammatory like motrin or meloxicam 7.5 mg help me to get relief & lower swelling?

Accepted Answer

: Yes, NSAIDS, such as Motrin or Meloxicam have the potential of adding relief if cleared by surgery and tolerated/ not contraindicated.

Question 5

how dangerous is it to take 7 hydrocodones?

Accepted Answer

At once? Dangerous!: Do not take any narcotics except as prescribed by md. And only take them as prescribed by md. 7 hydrocodones at once can be dangerous. Always check with your md!

Question 6

Accepted Answer

NSAID: This a nonsteroidal anti inflammatory medication with generic name of meloxicam. It is used to treat a variety of inflammatory diseas, ie, joint arthritis, tendinitis, bursitis, muscle strains, sprains, etc.

Question 7

is meloxicam 7.5mg addicting?

Accepted Answer

No: It is a nonsteroidal inflammatory drug and none of them are addicting.

Question 8

how much hydrocodone is too much?

Accepted Answer

Varies: Any amount in excess of that required to reduce pain to an acceptable level or which produces unacceptable side effects is too much.

Question 9

would hydrocodone make me "loopy"?

Accepted Answer

Yes: It certainly can. Be cautious with any opioid as the entire class can cause some form of sedation or cognitive change.

Question 10

why does hydrocodone ease my pain?

Accepted Answer

Stimulates receptors: There are chemicals in our body that are similar to all "opiates" and there are receptors in our brain that recognize the presence of these chemicals. When either natural "neurotransmitters" or drugs like hydrocodone are present these receptors cause a decreased awareness of the sensation of pain being sent by nerves which are present specifically to signal pain / injury.
