Guest guest Posted December 31, 2010 Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Hi a,  I take Oxycodone and it works wonderfully for me. Trammadol did nothing for me. Hope this helps.  Hugs,  Barbara From: rascalsniche@... <rascalsniche@...> Subject: [ ] Happy New Year All and ? about Darvocet Replacement Date: Friday, December 31, 2010, 11:05 AM  Wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year......be safe! Just wanted to get an idea what everyone is taking for pain meds..especially for those who took Darvocet and now need to get another medication. I see my rheumy on the 13th and want to " suggest " something that I know will work as darvocet did for me. I was given 50 mg of ultram but it doesn't work as well as the darvocet for me.

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 I also take Lortab. Tramadol (Ultracet) did help with pain but gave me bad side effects so my doctor switched me. I have been on Lortab (or hydrocodone when I was in Europe) for 6 years now with no problems. in No VA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 I take 5/500 and that has been steady. At that dose, I am still able to live a normal life (no sleepiness) and my pain level is at a level I don't normal notice. When I do have some more problems like recently, I get an injection. There is also a dose of 10/500 and I am not sure if there are any higher. THe small number refers to the hydrocodone and the large number to acetaminophen. Hope this helps. in No VA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
