Reaction To Pink Coloring/coating? Sunday, 8/24/2008 1:13:01 PM in Ambien I have been using Ambien for 10 years, but only when I travel, as I have difficulty sleeping in hotel rooms. I am sensitive to many common chemicals and the hotel room cocktail prevents natural sleep. I usualy break a 10mg pill into half or even thirds and that's enough for me. I have never had any grogginess the next day. This year, I tried the new generic Ambien on two business trips and I was completely whacked out; 5 mg was enough to make me groggy all day, and it was cumulative. It was terrible. After 5 days, I could hardly talk. So my doc switched me back to regular Ambien, but 5 mg tabs ... which are pink just like the generic. On a trip this week, I took my last regular white Ambien the first night and I was in great shape. I took the pink Ambien the next night and I was a mess the next day. It affected me exactly like the generic one. So ... maybe it's not the drug itself but something inert in the dye or coating. Wonder if anyone else has any similar experience. Post a Reply

Oxycotin Teva Saturday, 8/23/2008 10:10:23 AM in OxyContin I was involved in a car accient last year and am now working with a Pain Manage clinic. I have had injections upon injections, epiderals, blah blah and now they belive it is a tear in my disc between L4 and L5. Needless to say VERY painful. The most recent visit has placed me on Oxy AGAIN. I acutally took myself off them a few months ago because the pain was not getting ANY less... actually the same if not worse regardless of how many or mg increase. At 20 mg 2 X day I said I am done and started to only take 1 them none. That was miserable... Switched Doctors.. told him all of this and what does he do .. BACK ON THE OXY.. I have found that Percocet 7.5/325 2 pills 3 X day work the best AND it I don't have bad pain I don't HAVE to take it. I am so frustrated and I have called them 1 time a day for the last 4 days to get this med changed STILL NO RESPONSE.... Can anyone confirm that I am not crazy:-( 4 Replies

Oxycotin Damaged My Teeth Friday, 8/22/2008 3:18:54 PM in OxyContin has anyone else known oxycotin to rot the teeth, i used to be on vicodin until my doctor told me i needed to swith to a morphine based meds she put me on ms contin but i had problems with it so she put me on 80mg oxcontin eventually my body built up a tolerance so she kept raising it, i have am now on from 4-6 per day of the 80mg tabs, it scares me that this is what rotted my teeth because only 5 yrs ago i had only 2 cavaties that needed filling and then only 1 yr after going on the oxycontin i had to have all my top front teeth pulled as they where rotting from the inside out the dentist said my mouth looked like a heroine addicts mouth looks he called it, he said it was shocking to him that normally he only saw such damage from someone who smoked crack or did heroine with so much dental damage, but i have never done any street drugs and have only take my prescription meds as prescribed to me, now i have lost 80% of my teeth and as a beautiful 41 yr old mother its devasting i cant afford dentures and sure cant afford implants like i would like to have. i am a single mother and i refuse to date because i have lost my teeth now, i had beautiful teeth before i started on the oxycontin and only 2 small cavaties that needed filling. can anyone help here does anyone else have this same problem and if so why hasnt the company making oxycontin warn patients of this possible problem, if i had known this would cause me to loose most of my teeth i would have never agreed to go on it, course my family doctor who has been prescribing them tells me she hasnt heard of any other cases yet when i researched the med online there where others like this why hasnt something been put in the warnings about this med, i sure would have prefered to have lived in pain the rest of my life rather than loose my teeth and be unable to even eat now, my health has gone downhill fast as i cant even chew foods necessary for good health all i can eat now are yogarts, and liquid type of foods which isnt much. my kids are 7 and 9yrs old and they watch me cry when we go out to eat and they order steak and i can smell it but cant order one as i know i wont be able to chew it, this is so devasting me i want teeth so badly if i could wish for anything in life besides not to be poor anymore it would be to have a full set of real teeth or implants but i could never dream of having them, and i dont know anyone out there willing to just help me get any either, i have always helped others all my life, but cant even help myself, i have had to have 29 surgeries now since 1991 when a drunk driver hit my car and caused me major injuries with my lower back and knees, i have had a full lower back fusion and 8 arthroscopic knee surgeries until a year ago they finally had to do a full right knee replacement and now they are talking about doing my left knee soon, so my life has been up and down with surgeries and i would go thru one more surgery just to have teeth implanted if i could. but i could never afford it, but i would like to know why these drug manufacturers are making a medication that could cause teeth to rot like this without warning us patients or even warning the doctors about it. this is just terrible of them i think, as now i am the one paying for this by having no teeth to eat with at such a young age now, i am a vivrant young 41 yr old at 5'3, 120lbs slim woman nice looking too as i was a model in my younger days so i keep my looks up, but to have no teeth now i never smile anymore, i am to ashamed to smile even though it wasnt my fault i lost my teeth i think they should pay for me to have new teeth but no one wants to admit that the med causes it, but my diet wasnt the problem back when i started the medication and i wasnt drinking coca-cola either or doing street drugs so i know that wasnt the cause either. the only thing that changed within one year to cause this was starting the oxycotin medication. well if anyone out there can help me let me know thanks. 8 Replies
