Ultracet and habit forming

I have just started taking ultracet today. I was prescribed 2 tabs 4x's a day. I have taken 4 tabs so far. The pain is better but the pharmicist told me and my partner to watch out for psychotic episodes since I am taking 20 mg of Paxil a day. SCARY!!! So far just stomach upset. But not intolerable. NO PAIN!! I have suffered from chronic pain for 3 years after I tore my scapula away from the muscle and ligaments. I do feel a little wired. I was also told it was non habit forming. I have taken morphine and loritab but cannot handle the withdrawl. I think 8 tabs a day is a lot. Let you know as the days progress. Especially about the psychosis. My Dr. was informed about the Paxil and said it should not become a problem. We will see.

I recently tore my ACL and my MCL in my knee, as well as having suffered some nerve and cartlisge damage. they prescribed me ULTRACET. I have found its side effects to be quite a problem, and it seems to already be habit forming. But it does make the pain go away. WHile on it i am experianceing VErtigo, Confusion, and Euphoria.... I was once addicted to sleeping meidcation and i beleive that this is triggering another addiction... in short, do not take if you have an addictive personality, but it is good for severe pain

I've been taking Ultracet for over SIX months, usually twice daily and sometimes 3 times a day. I herniated a disk a couple years ago and I've had two back surgery since then and have taken every type of prescription drug available, Perocet, Oxycodone and now Ultracet. Ultracet does help with the pain, but it's side effect are just as much of an issue as the scatic nerve and back pain. My main issue is dizziness or being woosey on a daily basis and I do get an upset stomach on occasion. I only drive short distances because of the dizziness and probably shouldn't drive at all. What concerns me is the length of time I've been taking Ultacet. I do believe Ultracet is habit forming or additive no matter what anyone else may say. I need to get off this drug, soon.
