Chew Lidocaine Patch
I was on 75mcg and 50mcg every 48 well depending on what theyd write me. I asked to go to 50. Id get so sick throwing up and headache from them id take another so it knock the pain out of my head. It was robbing peter to pay paul.
Im a big tough hockey player. And i was curled up crying. They wanted to keep writing it for me, i asked to be weened down and just do 7.5 of vicodin again. They freaked out and stopped me cold turkey on everything. I put my fist through windows i was seething so bad from the drug. At the ER they had to give me 12 mg of iv morophine and some percocet just to get out of severe withdrawls.
If you want off you make your doctor ween you off or a less strong narcotic, IE morophine is 100 times less potent than fent. They finally gave me clonodine and baclofen. Might as well have been tic tacs. The only humane way to get off is weened on that opiod or similar. It has a cieling so you take 16 mg youll get that buzz cause the receptors get the treat first, keeping you out of detox, but the second med in it blocks opiods after; so its kinda like ok you get a little buzz but heroin, percs, oxy its all shut down. And i had tried with top notch insurance to see a suboxone dr.
Im down from 75 to 25 now on fent that is. Now i have back pain since i was 21 and playing college hockey. Now 25 or 12 is managable with vicodin for breakthrough. But now because i said i was DEPENDENT not an addict, that is someone who will see it out on streets or even shoot up to get the detox over.now the which after two years who isnt the pain mgt dr said oh your pain isnt bad. How does she know and why did they give me fent for 2 years and now nothing?
Luckily i heard a dr yell at her when i walked in begging for help he wrote me for 50s and i said i want to go less so he did 37 so then i see him in 2 weeks. Will i get suboxone for pain and addiction??? Will they listen give me the 12mcg and 5mg of vics that i did with zero addiction for years?
Stay away from fent, or at least have enough till next time or weening off cause youll be suicidal. Do you have any proof of one person dying from chewing fent. One can measure the amount chewed. A 100mc patchis 420 sq,mm. Doing the math, you can safely cut a size that is not dangerous.
A first time user can have problemswearing a patch if he has no tolerance. It is a matter of being careful, no matter the choice of intake. Unless you havesolid proof to support your contention, please don't offer misinformed statements. They don't serve a useful purpose.I'm not promoting oral consumption, but reckless pronouncements don't help anyone. Chewing is a reasonable form oftitrating, since you can accurately configure the amount to be consumed. Obviously, someone chewing a large amount at one time, is playing w/fire.
Just use it with prudence, and you are not going to die. I’m allergic to adhesives and I have fentanyl prescribed to me every month. I started out putting them on my skin anyway, but after 2 weeks of pulling my skin off, I had to find another way to use them and they still work for my pain. I take a 100 mg patch and cut it into 3 pieces as close to the same size as possible and I chew on a piece once a day. It works for me because I don’t have the adhesive on my skin for 3 days at a time and it makes my prescription last the 30 days it’s supposed to.
I don’t know if this helps you any but maybe it’s worth a try. Good luck, my own dr who wanted to keep writing it said oh well then my hands are clear its up to our NP. So she said we will ween you then no, then clondine and baclofen. Hahaha does nothing.
On a drug 100 x more potent than morophine. Why not just ween me on morophine, vics, beuphorine patch which is less evasive. I understand you need a special lisc. To write methadone and suboxone but when your own dr wont help you, the ER says sorry bye, and the local detox methadone place is full and you have to call every hour to check for a spot at 4, 5, 6 am. And there is no help its insane. Thank god this dr took the social workers call bevause i was ready to die or hop a counter and with pure adrenaline rip open the spot where the fent was.
If you want to get off make sure you do it after you save some or have a fresh script because look at me, dr turned there back er turned there back and the one place that could help couldnt they were booked. Now if your like me and you ask to come off at least less evasive they look at you like your nuts. If you have to take meds for life and they take your life over ween yourself so that you can keep taking them l had to with xanax now l only take them when l have anxiety l am on fentyl but take it off at night so my body does not become use to it.
It does still work and l have rods down entire spine l know doctors say dont take them off l see the point if u have cancer leave them on l just do not want to worry about addicition because this is my only relief meds do not help they just make u high time released meds has totally helpef me. I've been clean off the fentanyl patch 2 years today. And I was getting them from a friend. I was also sucked the fentanyl out of patch.
I had no choice to get off my friend up and moved no warning. I went in to terrible wd. Something I've never went through. It landed new in the hospital they said IM lucky I came in when I did cause I would of died or should of been dead cause nobody can quite cold turkey on fentanyl without the possibility of dying. Help your friend as much as possible even if Thy think there fine cause there not. I've been clean off the fentanyl patch 2 years today. And I was getting them from a friend.

Both are whopping doses of opiates!
Yes, I hope we are scaring the poster of this question - and anyone that comes along and reads this question years later. Perhaps you have built up tolerance and your body can handle this level. But, you are most assuredly addicted, and abusing these meds.
No doctor would prescribe you 5 Norcos at a time, or enough to take much in a month. You are chasing the high all the time - and what you are putting your body through! How much time each month are you in withdrawal, which puts incredible stress on your body? And each time you take it - you may think we are dramatic, but I assure you it comes from experiencing helping people - and seeing enough of them die. And yes, each time you use that much it could very well be your last.
I hope you're alive long enough to read this warning. Medically supervised withdrawal may feel horrible, but at least you're alive to feel it. I have had the same dr for almost 3 years, prior to that I had the same dr for 8 years. I have been on several different meds, bc I have several problems. Download play endless war 123 hacked. I won't write everything now and have to repeat it. Has led me into a pure hell, night and day.
I worry about my pain, my patches, and what will happen if something happens and I can't get them, ex extreme weather, dr. Leaves, or something apocalyptic. I have tried all I know,as I was successful with other rx narcotics.
Can You Chew Lidocaine Patch
This is a death row sentence. I am humbled by a small rectangular sticker. I can't go without it, can't sleep, legs jerk I FEEL AN INTENSE AMOUNT OF ANXIETY IN MY SPINE, I TRASH ABOUT.
I have tried every month I get my rx to taper off, but I can't make even a days worth of progress. If anyone has any info to help me I would just be so grateful,I know this drug is lessening my life span, keeping me in bed, maybe out of bed long enough to make dinner,I can't even eat with my family, I'm drenched with sweat, exhausted, and have this craving to get that patch in my mouth. If anyone sees this and can give me advice I would be so grateful, and honestly would cutting the patch in sections help me, would it stretch my patches longer to keep me from running low?? Please be honest. I am so tired of not being me.
For almost 3 years the woman I was has been crippled by this PATCH. Wow unless you are on this drug you have no Buissness trying to answer this question. First of all it depends on the kind of patch he is on. If it's the ones with the gel inside that looks like clear jelly then yes really bad idea to eat that cause he will get the whole 7.5mg of fentynal all at once. If it's the patch from Mylan then that's a whole different matter.
It takes awhile to get all of it off of that patch. Plus by chewing it you don't get the whole 7.5mg in your system only about 50%.
Please tell your freind fentanyl stays in your system as long as any opioid so at least 3 and up to 7days also it will show up in her hair if its tested and that cannot be removed eg (dosent wash out has to grow out,remember brittany spears shaving her head?thats why she did)If she is going to continue which i hope and pray she doesn't.make sure she dosent continue chewing after she feels the effects of the patch as this is when things like passing out with the patch still in the mouth,swallowing a whole patch or choking on the patch may happen which CAN and WILL cause death. PLEASE try and get her into a program where they can help her come off this,give her a safer controlled drug to ween her off,and possibly look at why she dose this besides the buzz there are often deeper reasons as to why! Please tell her to be and stay safe. A sad day today for sure. I am not a healcare professional nor claim to be so. A lot of the comments on this topic truly amaze me. Until you’ve walked this Fentanyl road, you really don’t know anything about it.
Opinions are just opinions and Data is just data. The real world trumps opinions and data every time. Yesterday, 12-5-17, a new acquaintance of mine, a friend of a friend that I just recently had the privilege of getting to know, died of a Fentanyl overdose. 23 years old and yes he was chewing the patches. I don’t know the kind, that’s irrelevant. What’s not irrelevant is that he is now gone. It’s a dark place that people are in and many times we don’t see it until they open up and let us in.
Lidocaine Patch Schedule
Please pray for this family as they bury their son this week. They will need all the prayers they can get. May God help and bless you all this week. Be compassionate and caring this Christmas season. God bless you all! The patch is designed to release medication over a three day period.
If you chew it you get the meds quickly, how quick is unknown since each chew may be longer or it may rip the patch can't say. I don't chew it but fold it in half and simple place it in my mouth, it is released faster than normal but not that fast normally lasts two days rather than three.

I'm fine with that and hope I don't have to make it worse for myself I have cut it open after a full 24 hours in mouth and released what is left into my mouth but that doesn't appear to do anything.
