Darvocet-N is administered to patients suffering from pain, ranging from low to moderate intensity. To get the best results follow the doctor’s advice: Take the right dose at the right time. Keep it out of reach of children and drug addicts. Darvcocet-N can be purchased Online; it is available in tablets of 50 mg and 100 mg.

Darvocet-N contains Propoxyphene Napsylate [opiate type which acts on specific brain centers to give relief from pain] and Acetaminophen [non-opiate, non-salicylate analgesic and antipyretic] that are both white, odorless, crystalline powders having a bitter taste; Acetaminophen is a little less bitter. Propoxyphene is known to cause constipation, so it is important for the patient taking Darvocet-N to drink plenty of water, at least 6-8 glasses every day. Darvocet-N can be taken with water, even food – if your physician advises. Make sure that your food is rich in fiber content to overcome the problem of constipation, and exercise daily. Set the time for your dose of Darvocet-N – as indicated by the doctor – and take it at the same time each day. A missed dose can be taken as soon as you remember, but if it’s shortly going to be time for the next dose, then leave out the missed dose.

Darvocet-N, an opioid agonist, has a tendency to encourage psychological and physical dependence, and must be taken under a physician’s advice. Once treatment has started, patients should not stop taking the medicine on their own; only the doctor can decide when to do so. Before treatment with Darvocet-N begins, the treating doctor must be informed of all the medicines the patient is taking, including vitamins-minerals-herbal remedies. The physician must also thoroughly know the patient’s entire medical history, especially if there has been any serious disease related to any organ, if there has been a history of seizures/ depression/head injury, if the patient has difficulty in urinating, is addicted to alcohol, is above 65 years, is allergic to Propoxyphene or Acetaminophen, or if the patient is taking anti-depressants/sedatives/water pills/birth pills [by mouth], so that the doctor can decide the precise dosage to be given.

As with any other medicine, Darvocet-N also has side effects, which may include dizziness, nausea, abdominal pain, skin rashes, headaches, diarrhea, euphoria, dysphoria, fatigue, influenza-type of illness, visual blurring, hepatomegaly, gastrointestinal bleeding, hallucinations, convulsions, confused state leading to abnormal behavior, cardiac or respiratory arrest.

The maximum prescribed dose of Darvocet-N 50 [50 mg Propoxyphene Napsylate and 325 mg Acetaminophen] is 12 tablets a day [2 tablets once in every 4 hours]; while the maximum prescribed dose of Darvocet-N 100 [100 mg Propoxyphene Napsylate and 650 mg Acetaminophen] is 6 tablets a day [1 tablet once in every 4 hours]. An overdose of Darvocet-N alone, or combined with alcohol/any CNS depressants, can be fatal. Patients should heed their doctor’s advice and never increase the stipulated dosage on their own.

Those who drive or operate heavy machinery should avoid doing so until they are sure of how Darvocet-N effects them, as this medicine makes people feel sleepy. For the same reason, elderly and debilitated patients are given the lowest prescribed dose. Doctors don’t usually give it to pregnant women or nursing mothers. This medicine should be kept away from children, pets and drug addicts. The medicine should be stored as instructed. Darvocet-N benefits you by providing relief from that horrible pain, but follow your physician’s advice.
