I have been using this drug, lighty since 1999. I've had three surgical proceedures in the last 5 yrs. This drug was perscribed in 4 of the ops. With only a couple of pills left and suffering from severe trama of Gunshot and multiple Shrapnel wounds form the Vietnam War, my injured body(mostly feet, legs and lower back) has sometimes very painful nerve and muscle aches because of the well defined arthritis per bone scan prformed this summer of 2005. I only use this drug when the pain is very severe (on a scale of 1 to 10) the pain is 15. My V.A. Doctor Perscribed 20 tabs. (this is good enough for nearly one year for my use of this drug. But the head of the Pharmacy Dept. does not want to fill the perscrip. Hydrocodone/Acedemeph #3 pill does little to nothing and never has. I am using Neproxin 500mg with much more sucess. But when the pain is really ringing my bell, I require something more. I hate taking anything. I do tolerate most of my pain with a tight jaw and a grumpy disposition, because I hate taking any drug. My long point is given my condition when pain is severe and because I only take so few of these pills is the VA Pharmacy being unreasonable by denying the VA Doctor's Perscrip.? REmember 20 to 30 pills last for up to a year. Also I live in So. Oregon and the Winter's here are wet, dank and cold and this does not help my arthritis condition throughtout my feet, legs and lower back. Thank you MRG
I am pretty sre it is the pain pill called mepergan, you can get it in generic, so it should not cost much, go to walmart-target-walgreens-grocery store pharmacy.I know what yo mean re the pain being so freaking awful,when I am at that point I feel like paying 100 dollar for a pill just to make it go away. God Bless you,and thank you for yor sacrifice for the people in the USA. I will pray for you everyday, Karen
