| 4 | No side effects at all | Actually I am taking 2 Darvocet N-100 tablets every night with a Restoril sleeping capsule (30mg) whigh helps me sleep a good 8 hours. Without the darvocet I sleep less hours before waking. I have just started having Anterior right hip severe pain as of Dec 2007 and am taking two N-100 tablets 3 to 4 times daily for the extreme pain without any side effects but it appears to help reduce the pain considerably! I have to wait a week before my doctor will see me to further diagnose the hip problem. After reading many of the reviews printed here, it is obvious the Darvocet affects different people in different ways. End result.... Very good for some... Not too good for others!!! | M | 79 | 2 years | 12/13/2007 | 4 | low back pain / Darvocet N-100 | constipation | Darvocet N-100 did not work alone, but worked well in combination with aspirin. 2 Darvocets + 2 325mg aspirin every 4 hours works well for me. | M | 48 | 4 weeks | 12/12/2007 | 5 | car accident/neck pain | none | i have had neck pain and upper back/shoulder pain for over 4 years from a bad car accident i was in, darvocet for me works very well. i only take it when the pain is becoming to much for me to handle. i use it along with skelaxin | M | 41 | 4 years | 10/28/2007 | 2 | Migranes (n-100) | None | Does nothing for a headache. Over the counter Ibuprophen works better. It was prescribed for migrane relief but didnt work at all. I bruised my ribs while on vacation and took these in a pinch, they did help take the edge off but they are weaker than non-prescription pain killers. | M | 32 | 12 days | 10/26/2007 | 1 | abdominal surgery | nausea, racing heart, dizziness, bloating, runs | I was prescribed Darvocet-N 100. DOES NOT EVEN TOUCH PAIN. Better off taking eight or nine extra-strength aspirin--sure, still damaging your guts but you actually get a smidegn of relief with none of the side effects. WHAT A WORTHLESS DRUG. Tried nine doses, threw the rest in the toilet. | F | 41 | 14 days | 10/1/2007 | 1 | broken hand | Slight depression, aggrivation because it does NOTHING for pain. | Seriously nothing makes me more mad than this drug. Doctors these days constantly give you this when you have pain that is far beyond its potential to cure. Sure it probably helps a stubbed toe, but anything beyond that this stuff is as worthless as a placebo pill. Its constantly prescribed because its not abused, and theres a reason its not abused, IT DOESNT WORK. | M | 29 | 1 months | 9/13/2007 | 5 | backpain neckpainHelpsW/AnxietyToo | There are some...don't mix with anything illegal...or too much alcohol...you can get some frightful effects...not that I have or anything | One of the better painkillers....less drowsiness inducing than codeine or vicodin... mildly energizing in fact...kills moderate pain so you can function..and takes the edge off disc problems also helps with anxiety and phobic responses to flying etc I find | M | 52 | 6 years | 9/4/2007 | 1 | 3 broken ribs | Anxiety, dizziness, slow breathing, panic attacks, thoughts of suicide, depression. Also was prescribed Xanax. I will never take this drug again. The first night I was afraid to go to sleep for fear of dying in my sleep. It took about a week before depression and suicidal thoughts came. I just stopped taking it and the Xanax and immediately felt better. | I was taking N-100, 1 at a time for moderate pain. | M | 50 | 8 days | 8/18/2007 | 2 | Crohns | Drowsy,annoyed,somewhat relaxed yet not enough pain relief. | If you have severe Chron's Disease....the n-100's aren't woth a hoot in hell. | 35 | 10 months | 8/16/2007 | 2 | low back pain | sick to my stomach all the time. gave me the runs after I ate every time. did nothing for my pain. | I was on tramadol/ultram and wanted to take another medicine for anxiety and so doc put me on darvocet. I've stopped taking both meds now after 3 weeks. it didnt help at all for my pain. | F | 33 | 3 weeks | 8/3/2007 | 1 | Wisdom teeth extraction | The only thing that stands out in my mind is how depressed I got. I was very happy and never had any serious depressive ideations prior to taking Darvocet(not sure if it was 50 or 100 though.) I was miserable and threw out the rest of the prescription after about 2 weeks because I knew it was causing my negative state of mind. I was so depressed and so unlike my "real" self that my reaction to Darvocet ultimately led to the demise of the 2 year relationship I had been in! I am convinced this would have never occured had I not been taking Darvocet. My sister got her teeth out the same time as I did and she was on Darvocet as well. She reported feeling very similar symptoms as me, only not to the extreme degree that I experienced. | F | 22 | 2 weeks | 6/26/2007 | 1 | back pain | drowsiness and nausea the first time, then nothing the next times | doesn't help at all. Nothing helps anymore... | F | 34 | 7 days | 5/22/2007 | 1 | Shoulder pain - post athoscopic | Every time I take it, I am vomiting within 15 minutes | the stuff is garbage | M | 56 | 2 days | 5/5/2007 | 4 | headaches | a little drowsiness | i take about 1-2 a month for headaches that won't go away with advil. usually knocks the pain out completely. | F | 37 | 2 years | 4/1/2007 | 4 | TMJ pain | Constipation, nausea and fatigue. | Darvocet is definately good at taking the "edge" off pain- and I think probably less habit-forming then some other pain killers as I have gone off and on them for over a year without trouble. | F | 35 | 14 months | 1/31/2007 | 4 | cramps | dry mouth, feelings of relaxation, clumsiness, slight nausea, changes in hearing/perception, sensitivity to touch, impaired thinking | some of the side effects weren't necessarily bad, but I still felt some pain while on it. | F | 19 | 3 days | 1/19/2007 | 4 | wrist surgery | muscle cramps when first starting to work | it works fine but has anyone had leg pain while taking it I was tapered off vicodin to this....please e mail | M | 64 | 3 days | 1/17/2007 | 1 | back pain | I remember taking this stuff about 30 years ago and thought it was garbage. But I was out of the Lortab and offered the Darvocet 100, it was just like I remembered made me a little lightheaded, a little sick to my stomach, and highly depressed, (by the way genaric vicodin makes me depressed very quickly). Anyway I took the Darvocet for almost a week before I realized how much it was to blame for the negative effects. Never again they ought to take that stuff off he market. | M | 50 | 7 days | 12/30/2006 | 5 | Migraine | No side effects other than pain relief. | I've found that Darvocet works much better than Vicodin, Percocet, toradal injectin, or even oxycontin (yes, I had a Dr. prescribe a couple once) for tension migraines and certain other acute pain. Although some studies consider Darvocet to be no better than placebo, there is considerable empirical evidence indicating considerable benefit. In my own long term as-needed use I have found that pain relief from Darvocet is limited to specific types of acute pain. For example, doing little or nothing for muscle strain or chronic low-grade body aches while providing complete relief for acute pain (migraine, ear-ache, menstrual cramps). After 20 years of trying many Dr. suggested alternatives it is still the only med that completely removes my migraine headache. | F | 50 | 23 years | 12/24/2006 | 3 | Hernia | I just could not stay awake | M | 25 | 10 days | 11/2/2006 |
