I am taking oxcycontin 60 mg three times a day but since they coated them i find that they make me sick and raising heck with my blood sugar, what else can i take in its place. ## Ask your doctor if methadone is a alternative for you. My husband takes this instead of the oxy and works far better for his pain, but not all doctors are willing to prescribe this. Good Luck ## We have had many posts with similar complaints about the new Oxycontin formulation, on top of the odd side effects, many also say that it is not as effective for pain. I am very sorry to read of what you are going through. As to alternatives, other than that which Tyna already mentioned, there are some other time released products on the market that you could ask your doctor about. One that is very effective would be M...

my partner is on methadone and had a drugs test done but his not sure if there is mophine in methadone ## Absolultely not, this is a synthetic man made drug only. It is not a true opiate and would therefore not contain morphine. It does bond to the same receptors in the brain as morphine but he will not test positive for morphine on a drug test. He may want to see if they test for methadone though. I doubt it, but you never know.

i have been on methadone for 3 weeks and have just been kicked off for missing it 3 days in a row!! can this be done, is this the way chemists are told how to opperate??? ## Such practices are often done for several reasons. One would be if they were giving you the medication and a test showed that you have not taken it for those days. In this case, they have to worry that the person is selling it. Another would be if it is a limited program and you are taking up the spot that may be used by someone else in need. If you didn't need it for 3 days, they can only assume that you are not in any danger without it. And yes, they can do this, nothing obligates them to treat you or give you a medication, if you are not in emergency status. What reason did you have for missing 3 days?

My son has been prescribed this medication and since he has a history of drug abuse I'm worried and wondering if there is any way this medication can be formatted (crushed, etc) to a form that can be injected. Thank you in advance... ## In reply to if hydro's 30 ml can be injected crushed up yes, yes and I can't strive as an addictions therapist how often I see people become and are addicted! It is very serious and you should have him weanned off by a tapering system with methadone if nothing else! Good luck!!

About 3 years I was working on a telephone tower and I fell 15 feet to the ground. I severely hurt my legs. My dr. prescribed me percocets for a few months, but then stopped me on them because he felt I should be better and doesn't believe in long term pain management. Well I continually bring to his attention the severe pain i have from my prior injury and he tells me that there is nothing he can do about it. I have been referred to another dr. by some friends, whom I go see in a few days. I really would like his help with pain management. I have heard that his pain management choice is methadone, which I have tried before and it really helped but, I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions as to what I can say to be sure that he will take my pain seriously and start me on ...
