A member asked:
After surgery one nurse gave me demerol (meperidine hydrochloride) and the other nurse gave me percocet not long after . did they double dose me and make a mistake.?

Not likely: Most likely is all based on the institutional pain protocol and your response to treatment. If there was a mistake most institutions have now specific guidelines and they will make you aware.
