    yup
    when you take them and you don't itch that's when you should start to worry

    yeah I get painkillers (Oxycodone) sometimes for my migraines and I used to itch the first few times

    It goes away after a while.....Doesn't mean you're addicted minet (Just that you have developed some kind of tolerance)

    Don't take painkillers every day for a while or one day you will feel really shitty and wonder why, then you take your medicine and you feel great.....Rinse and repeat.....

    I just had a hernia operation Monday. Prescribed oxycodone for the pain. It does make me a little itchy, but the not being able to #2 is much worse. Usually doctors prescribe milk of magnesia to go along with pain med, but that stuff don't help too much. I had to get the Ex-Lax flowing to help out.

    happens almost all the time for some people and some has no problems at all with it.
    I usually take a bath when it happens, feels rly cosy and makes me stop think about it Also heard magnesia can help this?

    No joke, used to be addicted to pain killers for 5 years. Was so constipated at work once, I own a restaurant, had to dig the big balls of shit outta my ass with a plastic spoon. Was ******* awful. 2 lessons here, don't get addicted to opiates and use metal cutlery!

    Taking an antihistamine like zyrtec/claritin/allegra or benadryl may help with itch...be aware the narcotic & antihistamine may make you drowsy.

    And the poster who commented @ the stool softner is 100% correct.

    all those class 2 opiates will make you itch. i used to love the "itch". imo, it was a pleasant feeling. also very easy to get addicted to...be careful.
