Yes, doctors and healthcare professionals often times prescribe Oxycodone (Percocet) to patients who are allergic to Codeine/Hydrocodone.

Hydrocodone is an extract of codeine, so they are the same. You just have to take more hydrocodone


Can you take percocet if you are allergic to codeine?

Lortab is identical to Vicodin - it is a combination of hydrocodone and paracetomol (acetaminophen). If you are truly diagnosed allergic to Codeine (hydrocodone), you should not take it. Allergy to acetaminophen is extremely rare.

Yes. Hydrocodone is a synthetic derivative of codeine. It does not contain the actual substance. I would also add that in my experience, the nausea seen with use of codeine is rarely seen with hydrocodone.

Can you take Vicodin when allergic to penicillin?

I am allergic to morphine as well. I can take Vicodin, Lortab, Norco etc, but at higher doses (10mg or above) I do sometimes get very slight hives on my face, but not like with morphine. Anything 10mg and below and I've had no problem. That is just my experience. That being said, I cannot take oxycodone, Percocet or any of it's derivatives as it causes MAJOR hives, itching, burning sensation, and respiratory distress. Hope this helps.

If you are allergic to codeine is it safe to take roxicet?

If you are allergic to opiates in general then taking roxicet is a terrible idea, there are tests that can be done to determine if your allergic or not.


Allergic to morphine can you take Fentanyl?

Most probably. However, there are subtle differences that may allow you to take codeine. There are other opioids that you may be able to take. Hydrocodone (Vicodin) and oxycodone (Percocet) may work for you. You might also consider tramadol which is totally synthetic. Good Luck.


If you have codeine allergies will you have Oxycontin allergies?

It's technically possible for someone to exhibit an allergic response (hives, difficulty breathing) to codeine, but have no problem taking oxycodone. That said, the odds are probably against it, and as such should only be attempted at the discretion of a trained medical professional (with OTC antihistamines on-hand, just in case). Molecularly speaking, codeine and oxycodone are very similar. Codeine lacks the hydroxy group at the 14- position, and has a 7-8 double bond. Also, the 6- position of codeine contains an alcohol group instead of a carbonyl.
