Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | Treatment benefits were to address pain and discomfort. It was perscribed to me after I was in the hospital instead of Vicaden (spelling?), as Vicaden does not suite me well. The medication began working after about 45 minutes of taking it and (for me) lasted over 6 hours. |
| Side effects: | | Treatment side effects for me were nausea and feeling unclear or 'loopy'. I found that if I took more than one pill within six hours, I became very nauseated. In addition, I would not have been able to function properly or drive a car comfortably because of the side effects with my clarity. |
| Comments: | | The treatment was for pain and was taken by myself for a situation that could not have been allieviated by medical attention. I had an ovarian cyst rupture. My doctor and the ER told me there was really nothing for them to do other than wait for it to be reabsorbed. So, pain medication was my last resort. I took a few of these pills over two days to help alleviate my extreme pain. |
