Butorphanol for Labor Pain "I am literally on this medication right now. I got a dose through my IV, and yes, at first it was intense and made me very loopy and hot. But now I am just much more relaxed. This is my fourth baby. I'm not quite full term, so they used this to see if I could relax enough for contractions to stop. They haven't, and I can still feel them, but it's much more bearable now. I didn't have this with any of my other deliveries, just the epidural. Everyone reacts differently to different medicines and doses, so I don't think that basing what is right for you off of other people's experiences is a good idea."

Butorphanol for Labor Pain "My labor went so quickly that my baby was born only 30 minutes after I checked into the hospital. I asked for a pain med, and they told me it was ‘too late,’ so they gave me Stadol. It didn’t help at all with the pain, but it did make me very loopy. Very disappointing. It probably caused my baby’s issue with not latching on right away since it was administered only 15 minutes before her birth."

For Pain "I was given Stadol a time ago while going to the hospital for a bad migraine. The medicine worked so well that I asked my doctor if I could have a prescription. I took this medicine for over a year for all my pain. When first taking it, I was loopy. I had to take Phenergan with it to control the nausea. But this painkiller was a blessing. I used to get sick from home movies and motion sickness. After taking this, I was able to watch home movies and even got to ride on a ride with my child for the first time in a while without getting sick. After my body got used to it, all I felt from it was relief. I am off it now, and I had no side effects from stopping. I did not stop slowly either. It was not addicting at all. Not having pain was addicting."

For Pain "I've had migraines for years. Butorphanol was prescribed at one of my many hospital visits. It works well! Gets rid of the pain, helps me sleep, and I wake up feeling good and not having that loopy, hungover feeling!"
