Witam,

Pilnie potrzebuję informacji nt. Percodanu - czy możecie pomóc?
Czy jest to lek powszechnie stosowany w Polsce (nie słyszałam o nim
wcześniej)? Czy jest skuteczny w łagodzeniu objawów RZS? Czy zawiera
morfinę bądź kodeinę (końcówka nazwy świadczyłaby, że zawiera kodeinę)?
Jeśli zawiera morfinę (Percodan zawiera chyba opioidy?) - czy są to ilości
uzależniające przy regularnym przyjmowaniu leku?
Jak się ma działanie Pwercodanu do działania Vioxxu i Celebrexu? Czy jest
to (jak te dwa leki) lek selektywny i czy można je stosować zamiennie?
Czy - jeśli Vioxx i Celebrex nie skutkują w uśmierzaniu bólu - Percodan
pomoże?

Bardzo proszę o wszelkie informacje.

Pozdrawiam,
Daga

What is the most important information I should know about aspirin and
oxycodone?
. Do not stop taking aspirin and oxycodone suddenly if you have been
taking it continuously for more than 5 to 7 days. Stopping suddenly could
cause withdrawal symptoms and make you very uncomfortable. Your doctor may
want to gradually reduce your dose.
. Avoid alcohol while taking aspirin and oxycodone. Alcohol may increase
the drowsiness and dizziness caused by aspirin and oxycodone and could be
dangerous. Also, alcohol increases the risk of stomach bleeding when you are
taking a medication that contains aspirin.
. Also avoid sleeping pills, tranquilizers, sedatives, and antihistamines
except under the supervision of your doctor. These medicines also may cause
dangerous sedation.
. Oxycodone may also cause constipation. Drink plenty of water (six to
eight full glasses a day) to lessen this side effect. Increasing the amount
of fiber in your diet can also help to alleviate constipation.
. Never take more aspirin and oxycodone than is prescribed for you. If
your pain is not being adequately treated, talk to your doctor.
. Avoid other over-the-counter and prescription products that contain
aspirin. Too much aspirin could be dangerous. Talk to your doctor or
pharmacist before taking any over-the-counter preparations.

What is aspirin and oxycodone?
. Oxycodone (related to codeine) is in a class of drugs called narcotic
analgesics. It relieves pain.
. Aspirin is a less potent pain reliever, as well as an anti-inflammatory
and a fever reducer. Aspirin increases the effects of oxycodone.

moderate-to-severe pain.
