Does oxycodone make you mean or ill? ?

Question

My friend has been taking them after he got out of the hospital for a kidney stone (he still has it, it hasn't passed yet) He seems really ill & very mean to everyone! What's up???

Answer 1

I think it is more likely he is miserable because kidney stones are extremely painful.  It's hard to be nice when you are in pain (and oh God, I know how that is,and so does my poor husband, lol!)

Oxycodone is a perfectly useful medicine--don't listen to people trying to frighten you.  I've had to take it for a prolonged period of time, and nothing bad happened.   Mostly, oxycodone can make you sleepy.  It can upset your stomach, too, but so can kidney stones.  I'm sure he'll be fine once he passes the stone, and don't worry about the pain medication.  He really needs it right now--kidney stones *hurt*!

Answer 2

when you're withdrawing from the oxycodone you get cranky and u aint in the mood for peoples b.s.

but i dont think its the oxys thats making him act like that. he's a man..and he has to pass a STONE out of his urethra (the pipe he urines from)...

do u have any idea how painful that is? or how stressful that is? of course he'll be ILL and MEAN. cut him some slack.

Answer 3

It's hard for a person who's in pain to be at their best, try to understand.

Answer 4

Well a very common reaction to too much Oxycodone is irritability (Where anything will set you off the deep end) and too much can make you sick. In a lot of ways this is good. Throw them away and never take them again. A lot of people wish it had done this to them. They are highly addicting. But a kidney stone and passing it honestly is my worse fear ever! I will pray for him and you. and................

the day this happens to me (I pray to god it never does) they better knock me out with liquid Valium. ANd one h**l of a big dose too.

Answer 5

have you ever had a kidney stone? it's one of the worst pains there is.

Answer 6

I have Kidney stones on a regular basis and it is the worst pain I have ever felt in my life and I am mean to everyone around because I am in so much pain and when you are in that kind of pain you seem to take it out on people that you shouldn't.  Think about it to pass that stone he has to pass it through his manhood it is a medical fact that when you pass a kidney stone it is the closest to the kind of pain a man will feel to having a baby.  as far as the oxycodone if anything it will make him happy not mean trust me if I take a narcotic pain pill and I am a happygo lucky man!!!!

Answer 7

Oxycontin can really change a person.  It is extremely habit forming and can cause physical discomfort such as nausea, can make your head fuzzy and makes you not think straight.  The drug company that produces Oxycontin has a class action suit against them because of the description and information that comes with the script.  Tell him 'DO NOT TAKE THEM'.
