What is Demerol?
Demerol is a brand-name prescription drug that relieves moderate to severe pain. Demerol is not intended to be used for chronic pain, but some physicians will prescribe it for that purpose. The active ingredient in Demerol, meperidine, is an opioid that attaches to the brain's pain receptors. Pain signals sent to the brain are either partially or completely blocked from getting through.
Demerol is taken as a tablet or injection. The dose will depend on the severity of the pain, but, in general, the lowest possible dose that provides effective pain relief will be used. Therefore, the initial dose may be a low one. Pain relief is typically experienced within an hour of taking Demerol.
What are the side effects of Demerol?
Demerol is an opioid, so commonly experienced side effects will include sleepiness, drowsiness, dizziness, and lightheadedness. Mental and mood changes caused by Demerol include mental clouding, confusion, and mood changes. Other common side effects of Demerol include, but are not limited to, nausea, vomiting, itching, rash, sweating, constipation, headache, urination problems, flushing, slow heartbeat, fast heartbeat, lowered blood pressure, tremors, and decreased sex drive.
Demerol is an addictive drug that is often abused. Overdosing on Demerol will slow down or stop one's breathing, lower blood pressure, and could result in seizures, unconsciousness, coma, or death. Demerol dependence can occur within a few days, but if Demerol is taken for a few weeks, discontinuation of Demerol will have withdrawal symptoms. Unless taken for a short time, Demerol should always be discontinued under the care of a physician.
Allergic reactions are very rare.
