how does propoxy measure up?
Answer:
Of the 3 propoxyphene (Darvon, Darvocet) provides the least analgesic effect.
I would say Propoxyphene %26lt; vicodin %26lt; percocetIt's pretty weak.
check 'em yourself:
Propoxyphene is a pain medication that is more for short term use, such as after an acute injury or surgery. If used for chronic pain such as cancer or permanent injuries with pain it looses its effects and you end of with its metabolite instead of pain control, just like demerol.On the otherhand, Vicoden, which is a combination of hydrocodone and tylenol, and percocet which is a combination of oxycodone and tylenol, are first line treatments for chronic pain. Percocet is often better because oxycodone does not have a dosing ceiling and once a patient has built up a tolerance the tylenol can be dropped from the combination and the patient can then be given straight oxycodone with adjustments to keep the pain undercontrol.
It doesnt. Take the opioids for better pain control as it is for more serious rececptor influence. The brain will tell you that propoxyphene isnt as good and send signals to your hand gragging the right stuff. Studys have shown that a couple of Vicodins are far more better than the Propoxyphene junk the doctor tries to give you at first. Percocet on the other hand is good if you take them on a empty stomach. Dont mix cause it is a waste. Ask for the number 10s' and dont take no for an answer, remember its your BUZZ........
propoxyphene isa narcotic also but not as strong i dont think as the other two but its a nardcotic nun the less its DARVON
Darvocet or Propoxyphene is the weakest. Additionally, it interacts poorly with drugs like valium. The (vicodin)hydrocodone versus the oxycodone (percocet) depends on the dosage. If I had a choice between a 10mg/325mg vicodin or a 5mg/500mg percocet I would choose the vicodin. Unless I can get a 7.5mg/200mg vicoprofen.
