I don’t know about any super-tylenols (acetaminophen), but post-shoulder surgery I got the oral version of voltaren (diclofenac)- it’s a strong NSAID, so call it a super-ibuprofen or super-Aleve.
As an NSAID, it’s non-impairing and non-drowsy.
Regular tylenol, aleve, etc don’t do much at all for me, but the diclofenac was pretty decent.
Just throwing it out there. Good luck in your search.
Maybe Toradol - anti inflammatory - usually given with a shot or iv first then pills to carry on for the course of the treatment. Works wonders on bad knees and is non opiate
Could’ve been Percocet
Eight ball of coke.
“Leo Getz”
LOL!
Like the others said, probably Tramadol. They say it is a narcotic but most don’t consider it in the same class as codeine or hydrocodone type derivatives. Not really a drug to get high with.
“Does anyone know what that was?”
How about asking your doctor ...
You’re probably thinking about NSAIDs... commonly sold under the names “Alleve”, “Naproxen Sodium”, “Ibuprofen”, etc.
I’m almost two months into recovery from hip replacement. I started on oxy. I wanted off of that as soon as possible. I changed to Tramadol and hated it. It didn’t really cut the pain and my stomach was upset. So I went to Advil which was okay but I wanted to sleep all night so I took Aleve. After three nights of taking Aleve I broke out all over in hives. It was horrible. I quit taking it and three weeks later I still see where the hives were. I switched to just Advil but it also makes me itch, just not as much although it woke me up last night. So I’m going to stop with it too. I may just take some aspirin. God gave us pain so I may just go cold turkey. I hope I don’t need any more surgery. I’ve had five surgeries in the last four years. Sigh
Tylenol (325mg) w/ Vicodin (5mg), possibly. The acetaminophen (Tylenol) can damage your kidneys, if you use it regularly.
Give me some 150mg Tramadol, or a bucket full of 30mg Oxys. Heh.
Yep.
Tramadol. Its a synthetic opiate that some pass off as non-narcotic BUT IT IS NOT!
Be careful.
i used to get a lot of stones, and took opioids, fairly strong ones, that did practically nothing to cut the pain-
They say that combining tylenol with something like motrin i believe it was, acted ‘like opioids’ but without the high- I tried it- meh- wasn’t impressed with the pain relief
Could’ve been Percocet
They gave me Percocet after back surgery. I felt soooooooooooooooooooooo good after one pill that I threw the rest away.
Tramadol is a Narcotic-Opiate.
LOL! Memories of the 80s.
Tramadol has a buzz too
Norco?
Toridol?
It could be Toradol. Its a super NSAID that is a good short term reliever. Toradol, like ALL NSAIDS, will aggravate your tinnitus if you have any.
