Guest guest Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 hey blake, i was prescribed hydrocodone after bimax last may and didn't have any problems with it. I was able to wean off after about 3 days. last week after lefort 1 they prescribed oxycodone but i remember last time i had it i was plugged up for a week so i just went back to the hydrocodone. just remember it's only for a short while and don't forget to hydrate and take liquid cal/mag to counter the constipation. it'll be behind you soon. good luck/eric > > Hi evewryone -- > > can anyone remember what they were taking post op for pain?

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Didn't even know they made a liq hydrocodone...that's vicadon and much better then the alternative being liq T3, tylenol and codeine...while that tastes like cough syrup it's not nearly as strong...so ask, but strongly consider which is more impt...and if you stick with what you have, try Fruit punch Gatorade as a chaser or heck mix it into it...it's a good way to offset the bad tastes-i had to crush up tons of meds for my asthma and allergies and BLUCK is right. but the gatorade helped hide it well. Good luck and be careful! JO > > Hi evewryone -- > > can anyone remember what they were taking post op for pain?
