Anyone Use Lortab Liquid For Post-Op Pain?



Recommended Posts

Yuch Yuch Yuch. I have generic Hydrocodone and I used it only the first two days. It tastes DISGUSTING. I also think it contributed to my nausea. I started using the liquid Tylenol, Cherry, and it tastes just as gross. I'd rather stick out the pain. I should go get some chewables... that would be easier I think. My antibiotic is not as bad... it's red and has to be refrigerated, CEFACLOR.

Most pharmacies can flavor liquids for a small fee. I know wal-greens does it for about $3. ~Mandy

It was nasty, but I found it very helpful on the days where I was in pain.

Pain is not your friend when you are healing from surgery. Don't let it get away from you, it's easier to control when you stay on top of it, rather than waiting until you are in agony.

They gave me 5 of the 16oz bottles with a refill for 5 more, but I didn't like the taste at alll. Seems like it is better in the fridge. I called the Dr. back and he put be back on the pill form of the 10mg. and I half it and it goes down fine. I just make sure and drink lots of Water after. I'm not taking them from the pain from surgery, I didnt need anything for that pain. I use them because of earlier 3rd degree burns, skin stretching, and disc removed in my neck last year and now spinal Fluid building up in my neck and another ruptured disc. They are my friends right now, I've tried percocet, darvocet, all of them and Loritab is the only one that works for me.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
