Group Seeks Federal Ban on Darvocet

Darvon, Darvocet and related painkillers should be phased out and eventually banned, a watchdog group said Tuesday in a government petition that cited the accidental deaths of at least 2,110 people between 1981 and 1999.

woah.

how well do you tolerate codeine or vicodin? Not well? darvocet always felt more gentle to me, though I know others who reacted horribly to it.

Sometimes Vicodin makes me dizzy. I'd never be able to drive or do a massage under its influence. I have the same experience as you do. It's much gentler, my Darvocet generic just takes the edge off. Of course, I only use one pill at a time, for a six hour period, so by many standards, I'm not getting any. But I was afraid of so much acetaminophen so I'm careful with it.

But I'm not supposed to take aspirin with Celebrex, and motrin seems to help headaches but not much else. So this implies going to a lot of other choices with side effects that get much nastier. Celebrex has been threatened, too. ARGH!
