User Reviews for Demerol injection

I use this shot as a last resort for relieving Migrains. It has worked better than percoset etc. It has always worked when taken. I take it with fimigan because it can cause neasua.

While my daughter received this medicine she had a serious allergic reaction to it.She suffered seizures with it and they continued for 4 days.This was very traumatic for her and her parents.

I have had severe migraines for more than 30 years and have taken probably every medication that is prescribed for them over the years. The only thing that has consistently worked is Demerol. I am also unable to afford imitrex and other meds like it so Demerol has been a wonderful alternative. I have to take it with Vistaril so that I don't vomit. Without Vistaril there is no way that I would be able to take Demerol. The vomiting would increase the pressure of my migraines and make them worse. So the two together has been a godsend and I am so happy that my doctor has prescribed it for me. I don't know what I would do otherwise.Read More Read Less

Was hospitilized after my 2nd ER trip for Gallstones and Pancreatitis. Was givin this in the ER, for the rest of that day, and after my surgery & following days i was kept. It worked sooo great! The pain was really bad and every time after being given this through IV within seconds the pain was gone. Happy Patient!

Ihad a migraine and had to go to the hospital. The nurse gave me demerol and it worked after two doses. Made me sleepy but took the pain away. She also gave me phenegran for nausea which was a blessing.

Allergic to this medication. Had surgery and I had a severe case of hives. Be careful

My doctor prescribes it for my migraines when all else fails, Relpax 40 mg. I am usually injected in the hip and it takes effect imediattley

I received this drug while in the hospital with abdominal problems along with a anti nausea drug. It works fast (was given IV) but stings like wholy heck! Make sure your nurse dilutes well and pushes it slow!

Used w/Versed for colonoscopy. I was out before the nurse finished putting the meds in my IV! It worked the way it was supposed to and I had no side effects. It was good.

I was given this medication for migraine headaches and it was so helpful. It did cause me to sleep almost immediately which is a problem depending on the time of day but it was a God send.

In 1982 I burned my hand badly and went to ER. They gave me Demerol Inj. I passed out within a minute and my heart rate dropped to 40. ER staff reversed it with Narcan Inj and I recovered quickly with no after-effects. They told me not to take Demerol again. I haven't.

I used this combined with Vicodin in an injection given by a RN. I had a migraine that had lasted for about a week and this stopped the pain, it did MAKE me sleep for about three hours but who cares the pain was gone, and i returned to my normal self!

I suffer from terrible migraines and Inj. dermerol is the only drug that will work for me. In 5-10 minutes the pain is gone.

It immediately took away my pain and was used to induce anesthetic effects.

This drug while it did ease some of my pain after major gall bladder surgery caused me to have terrible, frightening hallucinations. I would not recommend it.

After having a stroke, I was experiencing severe headaches while in the hospital. So they chose to give me a shot of Demerol IM. Within less than a minute I began getting very dizzy, and withing 20 minutes began vomiting profusely. This lasted for about 7 hours. After this event, I was continually dizzy, and at times nauseated for quite some time. I was later labeled as being highly allergic to this medication.
