    Taking Codeine while on OT?

    I'm going to be needing to take some codeine after I get my wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow. Should I be worried? I'm taking T-Bol/OT at 50 mg ED.

    You could tell your Doctor what the situation is. I always tell my Doctor what I'm on and for how long. Its the safest way, I feel.

    I couldnt imagine there being a problem. I've ran pain killers and anti-boitics with no problem on Tbol/Test Enan.

    Jayhawk, this is from Hooker's profile,

    OT is notorious for increasing the time it will take for your blood to clot because it has spontaneous fibrinolytic properties. “Fibrinolytic effects” means that the destruction of fibrin (an insoluble fibrous protein produced in the liver from the soluble protein) is happening in your body. Fibrinogen is important during the blood clotting process, as it is a soluble protein in the blood that is converted to insoluble fibrin by the action of the enzyme thrombin in response to tissue damage. (6)(7) Thus, you will bleed for longer than usual when on this stuff….combine that with the fact that steroids raise your hematocrit and you’ll be spending your entire morning trying to stop the bleeding if you cut yourself shaving. Well…that’s probably an exaggeration….but not by much.

    Taking this into consideration I would tell your dentist this before he pulls your wisdom teeth. It might cause problems with controlling the bleeding. Not trying to scare you but it is something that you should consider and advise your dentist of the possibility.

    Good info deal me in. I have noticed nose bleeds that take a long time to stop, which I thought was from high blood pressure but this definitely makes sense. When I shave, I have a thick beard and I have noticed it takes a little longer to stop the bleeding, and I'll have a little more irratation because of the bleeding.
