I used to work for a surgeon and when he did out patient surgery he would always give his patients chocolate before giving them pain meds. It works great!

Nausea and vomiting can be a side effect of those meds. You are probably taking too large of a dose. It is also possible that you are allergic to codeine. While none of those drugs contain codeine, they are derivatives of it. Even if this has just begun, it can be a new allergy. You can develop an allergy at anytime to anything. I developed a severe allergy to penicillin after having taken it for years. Your best bet is to look up the drugs on google, you can find a page that will give you the indications, dosages, side effects and adverse reactions to any med you'd like. Good luck!

Eat before you take the pill. It won't help much to eat after you are already nauseated. If the nausea is really bad, call your dr and ask him to change the medication to something else.

This is not uncommon in patients who have not taken much narcotic pain medication before. Try lying down and see if that helps. Also, try cutting your dosage in half, until your system is more accustomed to the drug. Eat as soon as you feel able to do so.

Smoke a joint 1st. It will help with the nausea and help you to eat also.

Call your doc and let him know you are having side effects from the med so he can try something different. YOUR DOC IS NOT A MIND READER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He has no clue the med is giving you problems if you don't call and tell him!
