Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Any Suggestion For Nausea, Trouble Sleeping With Faster Heartbeat After Started Denpax?
I have been on denpax 50 for about 6months now, had have been having some side effects, like nausea, and having trouble sleeping, also my heart has been beating faster, I ran the pharmacist and he told me to keep the patch on and see my dr on monday just want to now if this is the right thing to do or should I take the batch off .
In my opinion, you should not discontinue the patch without informing your doctor first. Denpax is an opioid and abrupt discontinuation can cause withdrawal symptoms, which are likely to be more troublesome than the side effects you are currently experiencing. When you see your doctor next, tell him about the side effects. I expect he may suggest a lower dose of the patch to reduce the side effects, after assessing how much pain you are having.
Best wishes.
