What test is used to check the level of medication in your system while using a duragesic patch?
I have been using Duragesic (fentanyl patches) for severe chronic pain caused by RSD since September 14, 2002. When my primary care doctor used a urine drug test to find out if I was really using my Duragesic patches, the test came back negative, even thoigh I really WAS using my patches. However, a blood test did show the level of fentanyl present in my blood. The funny thing is that the level of fentanyl in my blood is higher when I use my 125 mcg brand name patches from Janssen than when I use my 125 mcg generic patches from Sandoz, Mylan, and other generic manufacturers, whose names I do not remember.

If you are on several medications that say avoid alcohol does that mean only when you have taken them that day or in general?
With most medications a certain level of it builds up in your system. Once you stop taking a medication after that level is reached it can take anywhere from several days to three weeks for the medicine to fully leave your system. So if a medication says not to use alcohol it means at any time while the medicine is still in your system.

Where is the dipstick on 2010 BMW X5?
The 2010 BMW X5 does not have a traditional dipstick for checking the engine oil level, as it uses an electronic oil level monitoring system. To check the oil level, you can use the iDrive system by navigating to the vehicle information menu. Additionally, you can check the oil level using the onboard computer by starting the engine and following the prompts on the display.

How long until duragesic patch starts to work?
It is different for each person, and also dependent on how long you've been using it. Higher levels take longer for the body to remove over time. In general, you'll start feeling the withdrawals within 6 hours after total depletion of the patch contents, and really feel it at 12 - 18 hours. This does not mean that it has left your system - it means that your body's Fentanyl level is below what it has become used to and is reacting. The longer you use Duragesic, the harder it is to end your overall dependence. As I write this, I'm in the final stages of ending my own 11 year dependence on Duragesic and Oxycodone, Demerol, and just about every other known chronic and acute pain medication. It has taken 6 months of continuous lowering of my opiate levels, and 2 hard withdrawal periods. For those who haven't used it for very long, it is usually out of the body within 72 hours, assuming good kidney function. However, few people like myself are ever prescribed Duragesic for a short period, and if they are, it's due to a doctor's incompetence. Duragesic is intended for long-term, opiate tolerant, chronic pain patients only, and not as a short term pain medication. Fentanyl is 30 times stronger than morphine, and I can tell you it is not easy to end your dependence at all. For those who disrespect and attempt to misuse Duragesic, it's not a problem, since most people usually kill themselves in the process, not realizing just how strong it is, and how fast it can kill you if you are not tolerant to opiates - and by opiates, I don't mean minor street drugs like Cocaine or Heroin. For true long term opiate patients, stuff like that is nothing, and it's why addicts fail to realize the dangers of Fentanyl misuse until it's too late.
