My friend smashed her finger in a 700 pound metal door and it literally exploded. She is highly allergic to codeine and opiates and has been prescribed Darvaset but it is making her depressed and not helping her pain. She is going to the Doc again but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for another medicine. Thanks!

    Ow! It’s painful just hearing about that!

    I have to watch prescription painkillers too: Some will literally make me sick if I try to take them in the intended dose. The last time I needed any, I took Tylenol. I don’t know if it will help your friend or not, but it did help me.

    Good luck!

    her doctor -the kind who goes to medical school -is the person to consult.
