Well, there isn't a whole lot you can do about the nausea...you can speak to you doctor about a precription for phenegren, an anti-nausea medication...or you can try a nice strong homeade ginger tea. If you are interested..let me know..I will tell you how to make it...it's actually quite effective.

Speak to your doctor about it. There are prescription strength anti-nausea drugs that work well - they were designed mainly for cancer patients during chemo so you can imagine how strong they are. I don't know if they have something for the constipation that narcotics also tend to cause, though.

Hi DBD, here in the Uk when I was taking Morphine and got nausea the doc gave me Metoclopramide and it stopped. It's worth a chat with your doctor :o)

Marijuana? Although I don't suppose mixing pot and morphine is all that smart of an idea... I have no idea what the counter-indications are for those two. You can also try peppermint candy or tea, that helps me sometimes when my stomach is freaking out.

I took morphine for a few months after lung surgery. The nausea got so bad it wasn't worth taking. Phenagan worked for a while with the nausea, compazine made me sicker. Call your DR. there are other pain meds that can do a good job with pain and stop the nausea. good luck.

I've never taken morphine but have had to take meds that cause horrible nausea. Ginger tea and ginger pills worked for me as well. Saltine crackers helped too when my stomach was in the mood to receive them. As others suggest, talk with your doctor. It may be more comfortable to get a less nausea inducing medication than adding another for the nausea if possible. I say this because the nausea medications they gave me were only somewhat effective and made me feel weaker. I hope you get to feeling better soon my friend; know that my thoughts are with you.

I've not been on morphine, but I've been on other pain killers that made me nauseous like codeine and midrin...both of which make me horribly sick. I took compazine, which did help. I hear ginger tea is good, but I've not tried it. Drinking ginger ale helps me, though. Ginger seems to be really good for easing nausea. I drinking white soda always makes me sicker. I can't recall what other medication I've taken for nausea...last time Kristie got that sick they gave her compazine as well.

Hey dude, feeling for ya. I amputated half my ring finger last year when closing my back door and was prescribed the same doses for pain control after my operations. However I experienced the same side effects, vomiting, dizziness and basically having to spend my life asleep. I was able to manage the pain with marijuana, but you must be sensible. I am very good with pain so I was able to cut back my doses of prescribed meds to begin with during the day and manage it with a joint here and there, just leave any rehab or exercises for night when you have your regular dose as it may be too painful in the beginning with just pot. I also found my recovery time was halved as I was able to do more Physio and get back to life quicker that when on the morphine. Anything you can do to start dealing with the pain and rehabilitating is better. I could only take 2 months before I needed to find a way to start living my life again. Just be careful, and remember a little pain now is better than a mad addiction later! Those are some scary drugs!!

I don't take morphine, but when I've been on high dose pain meds in the past, I've been put on Reglan, and that controls the nausea and vomiting for me.

Medications, called antiemetics, can help reduce or prevent nausea and vomiting in patients undergoing chemotherapy. 'Aloxi®' and 'Ansemet®' are but two. I don't know whether these would be effective for morphine reactionary side-effects. I did come across some coping tips for you: • Eat small, frequent meals slowly. Chew food well, and eat food either cold or at room temperature. Do not get hungry. Carry a snack with you as you go about your daily activities. • Let others cook for you when possible. Smells may bring nausea and vomiting. Have food prepared outside the home or eat out so you are not exposed to the food aromas before eating. • Avoid very spicy or acidic foods on an empty stomach. • Drink at least six to eight 8-ounce glasses of water-based liquid. Hydration is extremely important, especially if you are vomiting. • Rest after eating to help your digestion, but be careful not to lie flat for a couple of hours after eating. • If you feel nauseous, practice relaxation techniques and other types of soothing distractions. [+ I have found 'diversion therapy' to sometimes work well for me when I am in pain! That along with my 'serious' drugs, when needed!] • Talk with your doctor about your side-effects. Don't assume that s/he'll take you off your pain medication, especially if its working. What other types of narcotics have you tried? Is morphine the only one that 'really' helps? What about Percocet, Darvon, or OxyContin especially in higher doses? I'd go as far to discuss medical marijuana with the doctor. Who knows? Remember to trust your experience. YOU are the one having it! Don't be bullied into being afraid of addiction! YOU are 'the president' of the company we call 'you.' You will make all the correct decisions you need to make, get supported by a team of your choice (don't forget you can do that), and do whatever is necessary one-step-at-a-time.

I take morphine 3x a day I think you need to ask for a lower dosage. I take 30mg 3 x a day and I do not have any nausea at all.

I also take 100mg morphine pills and what i found that helps me with the nausea and vomiting is gravol.When i take a a morphine pill i also take 2 50mg gravol pills with it and i have no nausea nor do i vomit whatsoever.
