Dr.Hanson:Wife will have hip surgery Oct. i incredible pain. Taking propoxy-n-apap 100. Addictive?No coedine?
Yes Darvocet N-100 is addictive, the propoxyphene part of it is...the other part APAP is just an abreviation for Acetamenophen (Tylenol). Too much Tylenol can cause liver problems, if she's been on the darvocet for long periods of time,or other pain relievers containing tylenol then yes, she can develop liver problems....I hope she isnt taking any more tylenol on the side....if she needs more pain relief then she should take something like Advil,Ibuprofen,Aleve...but no more tylenol. I could be totally wrong on this but i know there is 100 mg of the propoxyphen (for sure), and 650 mg of the APAP (tylenol), it should say on your bottle or in the paper work that came with the prescription..it would say something like Propoxyphene Napsylate/APAP 100-650, the first set of numbers is how many mg's are in the first part of the drug name and the second set of numbers is how many mg's are in the second part of the drug name......You need to talk to her doctor
