30mg morphine pill?

Question

the little green 30mg morphine pill. Is that a lot? What is 30mg of morphine compared to a vicoden or percocet.

Answer 1

It's a lot, but it is an oral dose so that the bioavailable amount is much less.

It is approximately equivalent to a 10mg injection although the onset time will be slower and it will take longer to wear off usually.

It is a little more potent than percocet. It's a bit hard to say, but maybe equivalent to 45-60mg Percocet.

Answer 2

Morphine 30 Mg

Answer 3

Sounds like you have a MS Contin tablet there. It is a time released medication meant to establish a consistant blood level of morphine over 12 hours for pain management. There is no ceiling to how much morphine anyone can take. Of course, you can't take 100 mg of morphine right off the bat and expect to survive that, but morphine can be increased gradually without any ceiling in mind. (I once had a patient on 1000mg of morphine a day and she was still doing her housework)

Vicodan and percocet are different. They have narcotics in them (vicodan has hydrocodone, and percocet contains oxycodone) Both of these medications are also mixed with tylenol. Tylenol has a ceiling because it can cause permanent liver damage and death if overdosed.

If the MS Contin is not yours, DO NOT TAKE IT! If your body is narcotic naive you run the risk of having problems (including death) from it and that medicine will stay in your system for 12 hours.

Answer 4

Morphine is the strongest pain pill you can get, its highly addictive, more so than vicodin or percocet. I'm sure that 30mg of that will effect you way more than either of the other two!
