Question 3

what is the strongest over-the-counter medicine for a bulging disk? i am fixing to have surgery to repair a bulging disk plus athritis .my back is pretty messed up and i am in a lot of pain mostly in the mornings but i want to get off of the oxcoydone tha

Accepted Answer

No : No over-the-counter pain medication will come close to relieving pain compared to the oxycodone you're already taking.  If you can't push your surgery date up, which i believe is the best solution, have you considered acupuncture?

Question 4

suffering from horrible allergies and can not sleep. tried otc alavert as well as  zyrtec (cetirizine) - the most recent @ 3pm. can i also take oxycodone to sleep?

Accepted Answer

No: Oxycodone is a narcotic for pain.  Although it may cause drowsiness in some people, it is not used for sleep.  Furthermore, the doctor who prescribed the oxycodone should be alerted because he must have ordered it for pain.  If the allergies are horrible, please consult an allergist.

Question 5

is it ok to continue taking metformin even if i don't have polycystic ovaries anymore? is it true it counters the effect of otc pills (weight gain)

Accepted Answer

Yes: If you have Insulin resistance or even diabetes metformin is fine to take.  Some people have lost weight on metformin, perhaps due to GI side effects.  I haven't heard that it can interfere with diet pills but those can be dangerous on their own.

Question 6

can i split my oxycodone in half?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: It's ok to split a tab unless it's oxycontin.

Question 7

is roxicodone or oxycodone stronger?

Accepted Answer

Roxicodone oxycodone: Both contain oxycodone - so they are the same with just different names.

Question 8

what is the highest dosage of oxycodone?

Accepted Answer

Dosing Opiates: The correct answer is the dose your physician recommends and to only use it sparingly.

If you are addicted or are using oxycodone outside of a therapeutic relationship with a physician please use the question on a medical board to begin to realize that this is no way to live.

Question 9

is percolone 30mg the same as oxycodone?

Accepted Answer

Yes: It's one of many brands of oxycodone (like roxycodone by the roxanne pharmaceutical company).  Most generic brands just use the chemical name, but others give the product a specific name, like percolone.  It's only difference is in the other components of the pill - preservatives, amount of talc etc, colorings and other trace chemicals.

Question 10

is it ok to eat cabbage while on oxycodone?

Accepted Answer

Yes.: I have never heard about cabbage and oxycodone. Some patient claim that the combination seem to help the pain better. I cannot think of a physiological reason why you cannot eat the two together.
