New Pain Killer Opana (Page 2)

Updated

I was just prescribed this medicine and do not feel very comfortable taking it. I would like to know if any one has tried this drug and how did it work. I was previously on oxycontin and the Dr. just changed me to this. Also i am allergic to mophine, alot of people have told me including the doctors that i work for that i should not take this due to my allergy. I have not filled the prescription and the Dr. that prescribed it has not called me back yet. Please give me any answers from anyone

hi this is my first time doing anything like this! ok i have been on oxy ir and oxy er for several years now for numerous congenital bone problems. i had searched for years for someone to help me and by the time everything was diagnosed and determined to be unfixable even with surgery the doctors were more willing to treat my pain. for years i was on vicodan and was never told a rx was suppose to last 30 days so naturally when i ran out i would have withdrawls wich i thought was part of my sickness. it took me years to figure out it was wd, and that this small amount was suppose to last 30 days!! but now that ihave been on the oxys for awhile things have been so much better for me. i got the op pill this last time and since i take mine orally i thought there should be no problems with the coating, i was wrong.. i have been having gas and stomach discomfort along with little bouts of wd every morning because they do not last as long and they take awhile to take effect.

Coloradocitzen I am just floored that you couldn't figure out that if you only saw the dr once a month that you took years to figure out that the scripts he wrote for you were to last for the whole month until you saw him again for a rescript.
did you NOT read or understand the pain contract that you most surely had to sign, stating that meds would only be given once a month and if you took them all beofre the month was up that well 1 you are SOL and 2 you have broken the contract by taking more then what was told to you to take daily in effect causeing you to run out of the meds.And if there is or was no pain contract, I am from Colorado also, who and where is your dr ? I don't like the one I have now.Because of he's asst mistake I have been without anything for 5 days now until tomorrow if Ieven get any then cause of he's medical asst and her not understanding what i had said about break through pain meds and the amount taken.
Myself with the Opana Er use, I take 40 mg a day,twice a day and have had very good pain relief with it,still have the nastey break through pain though by the afternoon, and this cooler weather makes it worse.

Opana er 20mg. is the best pain medication i have ever taken, it works great!! If your doctor is willing to put you on this medicine, let him. You will not be disappointed. i have been prescribed oxycontin 80mg. x3 a day and they do not work as well as opana 20mg. x2 a day

I am so sorry for the loss of your cousin, my 20 year old son died from one of these pills given to him by a friend. I doubt he had any clue he would die from this. There is all together to much pain medicine given out in this country to people who truly do not need it. To think that a 20 year old could get his hands on this murder pill is unbelievable to me.

I correct. It is MG NOT Grams. I have come to one conclusion. Those who say that Opana doesnt wover their pain is obviously stating that they arent getting the rush that Oxycontin provides. Opana more than covers your pain. As a matter of fact I guarantee that once I say this you'll all of a sudden (mentally) think that Opana is better than Oxycontin. It takes 2 oxycontin to equal 1 opana. Therefore 40MG's of Opana equals 80MG of Oxycontin. SO if you take 40MG Opana ER twice a day, it is like 2 80MG Oxycontin.

I have no scientific proof of this, only my expieriance. I take large doses of gabapenton for nerve pain. As strange as it sound, this medication seems to lesson withdrawel symptoms to a tolorable level for me. Just a thought

I was prescribed opana ER 40mg and it did not work as well as oxycotin. So I went back to oxy. and asked my Dr. to put me on opana IR 10mg. It is the most addictive drug I have ever been on. I am an addict and I love/hate this drug. I ran out of the opana and had the 2 worst days and nights of my life. I am trying extremely hard to get off this drug and it has proven so far to be next to impossible. If you are fortunate enough to have never tried opana IR do yourself a favor and stay as far away from it as you can.

I have been taking 4 - 80 m.g. Oxycontin, and 4- 5 m.g. Tylox, a day for several years. I was injured in a car accident 15 years ago. I had been denied narcotics at first. Finally I had an M.R.I. which showed several disc injuries, all of which cannot be repaired by surgury. I saw a surgeon, who told me that my injuries were so severe, he told me he, nor any other surgeon wouldn't touch me surgically w/ a ten foot pole. I was told by another surgeon that the likelyhood of me being paralyzed was too great of a risk. I am asking, if anyone that knows if Opana would be a benefit to me, as the Oxycontin 80 m.g.- 4 times a day is not taking the pain away. At a 0-10 pain scale, I am currently at a 7-8 most days. And my Dr. will not increase my Oxycontin. And I do not want to take such big doses that nothing in the future will help. I would appreciate any help, with a knowledgable person. Negative comments, DO NOT APPLY.

The only time anyone I've ever known to have withdrawals from suboxone is when they still have a pain med in their system. Your suppose to wait until you are going through mild to moderate withdrawals from pain meds to take it. Theres a chemical in pain meds that stick to the brain receptors the same way the stuff in suboxone does. If you haven't given the stuff in the pain meds time to detach from the receptors(therefore,going through withdrawal), the stuff in suboxone tries to fight the pain meds off,thus making withdrawals 10 times worse. If taken correctly suboxone is a life saver

As with all drugs, you will find them on the streets. Opana is no different. They can bring in a ton of money in a very short period of time. Opana is being sought by more and more people because it does not show up on a normal 5 panal drug test. I believe the drug should be banned immediately.
