Dr. Romanth Waghmarae answered

Specializes in Pain Management

Multiple pain killer: If these were prescribed by the same doctor- then fine. If they were not prescribed- then using multiple pain medication at the same time is a very bad idea. Also taking medication for pain from different physicians is also a bad idea.
