when there is a sticker on the medication bottle that says |
|
"do not take while drinking alcohol" how many drinks, when, would make you skip taking that pill? how many would take an extra pill?

1. If I were on medication that didn't allow me to drink |
|
I wouldn't skip the medication, I would skip the drink.

10. it's a long term med, and the reason that it gives is that it intensifies effect. |
|
which, to me, is a good thing. just don't want to go to far.

14. a long term med would be different I guess |
|
but, I cant answer the question. I guess I would have to ask my doctor for his/her opinion.

Take a Vicodan or two with some booze and you might drop dead from liver failure...not from the Vicodan, but from the tylenol that is in it.
So, I would be careful about gaming it.

3. I did not know that Vicodan |
|
had Tylenol in it.
I can't take Vicodan, do I guess I never researched it.

4. I think they do make a type that has... |
|
Advil or similar in it...but when you read the Vicodin label, it will say something like 5/500mg. The 5 refers to the Vicodin, the 500 mg refers to the Tylenol.

5. Tylenol makes me sleepy |
|
I can only take it when I know I will be able to take a nap.

13. I am allergic to codiene |
|
get hives, nauseous, that sort of stuff.
Maybe if I could tolerate taking it, the stuff in codiene that keeps you awake would balance with the stuff in tylenol that puts you to sleep.

|
I love them so much.
I like the stuff they give you in the hospital.
I had pancreatitis once, and they had me on an IV of Fentanyl (or however you spell it) for a week. I barely remember anything except how good I felt.

Just my humble opinion. We'd hate to lose you.
