Recent surgery?!


Question: I recently had surgery and my doctor gave me 650 mg. Lorcet. He either did not tell me how many to take at a time or ive forgotten due to the wooziness... would it be safe to take 2? I am a 20 year old male and about 250 pounds.. The pain is really really bad so a response would be much appreciated

you actually have 10/650 most likely it would be 1 tablet every four to six hours if that isn't helping at all you may try 1 and a half ( it is scored in the middle to help) i would think you could handle more but the tylenol in the medicine can cause toxicity problems especially if you are just getting out from under anesthesia. i would definitly call the doc tommorrow and let him know what it is taking to squelch the pain.

Good Luck

650mg is a big dose. dude take one just once a day for now. call the doctor back or if you can't try to go to your local pharmacist and ask him/her.
