Guest guest Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Walt, I'm not sure what message # it would be, either. It's easier for me to just list it. Are you wanting just the narcotic meds, or all? I may as well list everything. Duragesic patch, 50 mgs., every 72 hours - pain Oxycodone, 10 mgs. up to 3 tpd, as needed - pain Neurontin, 1,800 mgs., daily dose - pain Provigil, 200 mgs. daily - for alertness w/Neurontin Protonix, 80 mgs., once daily - IPP (antiacid for enzymes) Viokase-16, 5-6 tablets w/each meal - enzyme supplement Lexapro, 20 mgs., daily - antidepressant Vytorin, 10-20 mgs. daily - high cholesterol Synthroid, .1 mg. daily - low thyroid Pancreatic Antioxidants Beta Carotene - 9,000 U L-Methionine - 2 gms. Vitamin C - .54 gms. Vitamin E - 270 U. Selenuim - 600 mgs. I also take a pre-packaged allotment of Diabetes Healthcare Antioxidants that help to lower blood glucose levels, and take cinnamon tablets for the same purpose, and vitamins B-1, B-6 and B-12, magnesium and folic acid. My doctor wanted me to try methadone, but it's not available in my area pharmacies. It was just legalized about 2 years ago in SC. Fortunately, the combination of the duragesic patch and the Neurontin helps tremendously, and I have the Oxycodone for BT, which has also been effective to date.
