darvocet n/50

i know they took this drug off the market....is there another drug that would be simular in effect...i used it for knee pain....tramadol does not work ## Based on my research, Darvocet-N 50 (acetaminophen + propoxyphene napsylate) is a narcotic (opioid) analgesic combination indicated for the relief of mild to moderate pain. So it sounds to me like you're just in need of a similar type of drug combination. Although I'd recommend discussing this with your doctor before having any decisive thoughts, a few other potential brands to consider would probably be medications like those listed below: Percodan (Aspirin + Oxycodone) Percocet (Acetaminophen + Oxycodone) Norco (Acetaminophen + Hydrocodone) Ibudone (Hydrocodone + Ibuprofen) Demerol (Meperidine) I hope this info helps!
