I M Having Pain In My Pancreas ..ive Had It

Posted on Wed, 28 Oct 2020

Question: I'm having pain in my pancreas..ive had it before & have been treated. I think Naproxen might have agitated it. Is there something I can get prescribed to help me with the pain? When I was released from the hospital (in Canada) the prescribed a very low low dose of morphine for the pain. I am not throwing like I was back then but I do have pain right now.

Brief Answer:
Codeine is recommended to treat the pain.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I am sorry to hear that you are in pain.
Pancreatic pain can usually be treated with painkillers.
I suggest to try Codeine 15 mg three times a day.
If you don't have any relieve you may also use Tramadol 25 mg per day.
Both medications can be taken on prescription.
We can not give prescriptions in this platform.
So it is needed to consult your doctor to take it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Kind regards!
