How are you? You should not change your dosage, without your doctor's approval. Both the Oramorph and the Codeine are narcotics, so you may overdose if you do so, they also carry the risk of being habit forming. The FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Paracetamol is also dangerous, if you take too much each day, an overdose of it could result in fatal toxicity. Are there any other questions or concerns?
The best thing for someone in pain, mentally or physically is to find a good doctor that will help you. I, myself am in severe pain daily with stomach and bowel problems and take 180ml oramorph per day as well as 30mg MST every 12 hours. The key is to find a doctor who understands your issues and that is willing to prescribe pain relief that is high enough to keep your pain under control. If I didn't take these ( and my other prescribed meds ) I would be bedbound. So hang in there and try to find a sympathetic doc/gp..... ## I am very glad that you're doing so well and have found a doctor and medication to help you. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsi...

Would you consider a 20mg dose of Oramorph (a first dose) to be excessive, in a 93 year old person with a history of many medical problems, including COPD? The person had never been given it before, and was given 90mg in 9 hours, when it was then necessary to administer Naxolone. It was given for stomach pain. What could be the possible outcome of this dose? ## Yes its excessive 2.5mg more usual and even then used in caution with elderly esp with copd. Naloxene given to remove morphine from system almost instantly so its simple conclusion. I'm a ex nurse currently on large doses of morphine and have been given naloxene following of so consider myself fairly informed
how long will it take for oramorph to get out of my system after taking it for 4 years ## I was in hospital for 10 days and given morphine and oramorph for pain should this be reduced or can it b suddenly stopped and you are still in pain thanx sue
Should this drug be given to mothers in labor? ## Its is 5 months of first time pregnancy. Legs & feet are swollen, Is this a normal condition? or need some traetment ## Do i have a chance to get pregnant because last september 10 we've had intercourse and he climaxed on me, the next day i had a menstruation, I want a baby, do i have a chance this month to be pregnant?
i take mst 40mg every 12 hrs and tylex 3 to 4 times daily. is it ok to take oramorph at same time ? ## MST and Oramorph both contain Morphine as the active ingredient, so taking both may be too much and you shouldn't do so, unless you've been specifically told that it's safe. Learn more Morphine details here. Have they all been prescribed for you?
Is Oramorph 10mg/5mls classed as controlled drug? ## Oramorph contains the active ingredient Morphine, which is a potent opiate narcotic, so it is a controlled substance in most countries. You'd need to check the laws in your location to see what it's classified as for you. Learn more Oramorph details here. Does it require a prescription for you?
parent overdosed and said she took it earlier than i think she did'nt start vomiting till after 9hrs, am curious to know how soon you actually would vomit. ## I would say almost instantly as it can be quite harsh on your stomach, as to why you would be taking stupid amounts like that im not sure,morphine is a very strong painkiller and thats what it should be used as not as a recreational drug as it can be fatal. I have serious regular shoulder dislocations and am in severe pain almost daily and a 300ml bottle lasts me 3 to 4 weeks normally so taking 250ml in one go is just risking your life dont do it!
I was given Oramoph back in January 2012 for acute pain, but was then managing well with Tramadol so put it in the cupboard, I am now in need of it once again but it says dispose 3 months after opening. Would I come to ay harm if i took it now? ## It may make you sick, as in causing nausea and vomiting. It likely will not work for your pain. Liquid medications have a very short shelf life, that's why the expiration date was 3 months, after that, they lose efficacy very quickly. Learn more Oramorph information here. Are there any comments or questions?
I have been on Oramorph SR 100mg 4 times a day for severe ongoing pain. Oramorph SR is unavailable right now so i was switched to Kadian ER 30 mg 1 time per day. Is this the correct equivalent? If not how much Kadian ER would be equivalent to Oramorph SR 100mg 4 times a day? thank you. ## They both contain Morphine as the active ingredient, so the dosage would be the same in either one. If you were taking 100mgs of the Oramorph, you'd need 100mgs of the Kadian. Who did the conversion? Your doctor or your pharmacy?
These are rather thick round white pills with a 30 on one side and 54 409 on the other side. Can they be injected? I'm out of my roxies and someone gave me these. ## No, it is not safe to inject any medication that has not been specifically formulated to be used that way. Most tablets, especially time released ones, contain fillers and not all of them are meant to be broken down by the human body, they are normally just expelled in your waste. When you inject them, you are putting these substances into your body, in a manner in which it cannot process them out. This creates the risk of blockages, which could lead to stroke or embolism. Are there any other questions?

I'm needing to stop taking Kadian as it's too expensive. Does anyone know the cost of 80 mg Oramorph per month taking one every 12 hours? 60 pill per 30 days. ## I don't think anyone can give you a specific answer, unless you post exactly where you are and what pharmacy you want to buy them at. It is going to vary from area to area around the country. Some prices may be pretty close, but it would still only be a guess. Oramorph is another name brand of Morphine, so it is also liable to be expensive. Have you considered asking your doctor or pharmacist for the generics? There are generic versions of time released Morphine that are much cheaper. ## alphapharm provides an indigent med program for Kadian i get mine for free it cost me 18 dollars to overnight it and 3 days later ...

I can't afford Avina co pay anymore. ## Might be able to offer you some help. I was on Avinza, and yes it is costly. I found few years ago a website or place to get my medicine and you can have an income. Go to www.FreeMedicine.com to request application. The good thing is can have income level of $80K and family of four. Some sponsors offer help for patients who can't afford their co-insurance fees. I was paying $5.00 for s/h to be delivered by Fedex or UPS. I suggest to check out website, they carry over 5,000 types of medicines. They do charge a fee for each medication. Last I checked it was $10.00 and if they cannot provid...
