oramorph

[lulul]

Just taken oromorph for the first time and my heart is going like the clappers..thought it would be the other way around??? GP has me on Naproxen and diazepam too for short term use whilst in so much pain. Any advice??

Maybe a little panic attack, I will have to google oromorph. might settle down?

Hi Lulu,

Just had quick look and awareness of heartbeat, palpitations is listed as side effect, so possibly will settledown, check with GP, as this looks like serious pain med, and the advice on here would probably not be appropriate,

Regards, Gina.

the diazepam is a muscle relaxant and ant anxiety med.. try taking that instead, it should help.. naproxen is an ant inflammatory pain killer, oramorph is an opiate derived pain killer and is therefore quite strong!! as all three were prescribed by your gp you can safely take them all together and as i have just explained they are all "different types of pain relief "so your gp is trying to give you maximum benefit for a short time.

I had oramorph prescibed for a bad patch.. I halved my dose though this was a personal decision because it made me feel a bit out of it.. suggest you keep to your drs prescription. directions.. I altered my dose purely for personal reasons and with some drug insight as I that is my job.. disclaimer. my dose change was purely a personal decision made with medical knowledge.
