Just curious what post-op pain medication is prescribed. Thanks!

I was prescribed hydrocodone in liquid form for post op.

I had liquid lortab and anti nausea meds because the lortab makes me nauseous

It depends on your doctor and your specific needs, everyone is different.

I had percecet. Worked great. Only needed it for the first 2-3 days, then I was fine.

Thanks!! Getting scared!! Up until now everybody been telling me this is no big deal. Now I'm hearing how bad gas is after, just had coworker tell me he had hard time catching his breath after surgery & how horrible it was & the pain he had. Now I'm freaking out about going through process.

It's easier than child birth!

Not to worry! Everyone different on how they deal with discomfort. I had Gbypass 18 years ago and THAT was pain! Had my band put on in July in Mexico, they have me tramodol which is their equivalent to Vicodin. I walked through the border line 2 days after. Some of us also like a little "extra" med so we can get some well deserved rest. The had pains went away the more you get up and move. Just toot toot toot along... Well worth it!

*the gas pains... (Auto correct). Lol

I had roxicet - liquid Percocet - and it was great. I needed it for about a week but it was mostly just at night or first thing in the morning.

I had Lortab elixir and Phenergan, but I only needed Tylenol. I had a really easy recovery though.

Immediate release oxycodone and promethazine. Both very small and easy to swallow. Works great. Gas pains are bettered with walking.

Mine was liquid lortab (pain) and zofran (nausea) that was a dissolvable tablet
