Things like Percocet , which they gave Peter, do contain opiates along with acetominaphen, I think, and it's not obvious they are in there. Be sure to check with her neuro if you have a question re: this, as nursing staff and surgeons might not know----Peter's surgeon begged off, saying, "I don't know about drugs---I'm a SURGEON!" And of course Demerol isn't good, especially if she has been on Eldepryl within the past few weeks." ****************************** Hi! Why shouldn't PWPs have opiates? Should they also not have acetomnaphen?? Why is Demerol not good? Thanks! Bill
