Could Hydrocodone And Addreall Cause Weird Sharp Pain Below Rib Cage?

worried about my soon to be 32 year old girlfriend. she recently had some health issues and spent time with hospital (umass Worcester) due to a Liasion on her spine that was bleeding.....long story short, I know she has started abusing the hydrocodone, she has been given. She is also prescribed 30mg Adderall, and 10mg celexa, at least I think the celexa is 10mg, she said its the lowest dose you can get. Tonight, she has complained she has a very weird sharp pain, just about her stomach, just below rib cage....she said its happened 1 other time, few weeks ago....I think it has something to do with all the drugs, she s taking, but don t want to say that.....she s had her appendix and gall bladder out years ago.....I guess my question is, could side effects of all the rx she is on, cause this pain she has....

Hello,

It can be due to conditions like costochondritis and not due to drugs.

As of now you can use analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist, it is better to consult a physician and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
