A member asked:

Can i take methadone and percocet for pain, is this an okay combination for pain relief?

Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Addiction: Taking two opiates at the same time can be found under some extreme pain management plan. But, if this is something you are asking on your own without a pain specialist recommending it, then this could be a sign of drug tolerance and addiction.

A member asked:

How I'm able to get more pain relief and a better 'buzz' by using a small amount of Opioids. As an example I can take a 5mg Percocet and feel pretty good, but an hour later take an additional 5mg / 10mg and get no increase in benefit. Am I broken?
