Default What is better for pain: Vicodin, Percocet or Ultram? - 12-31-2008, 12:52 PM

I have chronic migraines, and my doctor says the medication he prescribes can be"my choice."I've never been on any of them ... Please, this is a serious question, so no jokes.

Vicodin makes you sleepy, but it worked for me! Try it out, if it doesn't work try a different one.

Those are really strong drugs. Have you considered preventive migraine medicines like Inderal or Topomax?

i have chronic migrains as well...along with pain medication you may want to try a preventative medication as well (it didnt work for me but i do know it works for some people) and as for pain medication my doctor gave me something called fioricet (im not sure if thats EXACTLY how its spelled) but what's nice about it is that the narcotic in it is a VERY low amount so youre not risking dependancy or getting so used to it that youre going to have to increase the amount you take as time goes by. but as of now i would say get the vicodin and only take half of it at a time, and if that doesnt work then take the other half. i think a percocet is too much for this situation. good luck with everything and if you have any questions fell free to email me.and i strongly suggest you do NOT use topomax...every one i have seen use it has changed...the medication has a stong side effect of making you very apathetic and you wont care about anything in your life anymore.

Percocet is the most potent.

Vicodin and percocet are both pretty strong. Ultram is not at all strong. Hope you feel better

I've had one percocet in my life after i had my wisdom tooth pulled, that was lli needed as the procedure was not that bad.I have had plenty of vicodin, It's one of those drugs that works at first but like after the third day of taking it it's almost worthless and if you take to much like five pillsfrmo morning to night it can make you throw up. As i had to do with sever dental pain two months ago.I never experienced any HIGH effect like some people say that they experienceABout the people who are saying all the stuff about vicodin. It does not make me tired at all even when i took multiple pills in a day.Also I would not consider it to be VERY strong, Percocet is supposed to be like 2.5 times stronger.i mean there's stuff out there like ACID which from what i hear is like 30 times stronger. Like you could be stabbed nad have it take care of the pain, WHere vicodin or percocet would never do that.
