The new gel opanas can not be crushed anymore which blows man. The whole microwave thing u do with the op oxys doesn't even work it will just go back to its original form f*** doctors ruin all the fun in narcotics wtf if ya want a rush now you will have to just do some heroin lol ## You are defenantly in need of help. People like you are the reason I can't get any relief from pain because I take it as directed. I can only hope and pray you and people like you either get help or are caught by the law and the book is thrown at you. You are an addict and there are many clinics that can give you help the only problem is you have to want that help in the first place. I hope you have someone who cares enough for you to do all they can to get you to that help. Will be praying for you. ...

To all of u jacka***s out there bragging about abusing your med's out in the open, you're all sick in the head. That's why the drug companies are changing these meds to NON CRUSH meds, and I know for a fact they are not as effective. So u are all just hurting the ones who really need it. ## I was that person you speak of but have realized that it was the company I kept. Finally I realized I was the only one with a legit prescription and what was really going on. I have removed myself from this click and would have no problem narking on every last one of these junkies who would steal my meds and were selling them for $75 each and snorting them and everything else. I thought they were friends, wow was I stupid. I told them I no longer am prescribed these meds anymore and haven...

I TOOK A DRUG SCREEN AT WORK AND OPANA SHOWED UP. WHAT OTHER DRUG WOULD SHOW UP AS THIS AND COULD THIS BE PUT IN A DRINK AND DISSOLVE QUICKLY? I had never heard of this drug when I took the drug screen and had to come home to see what it was. I have graves disease and am very careful not to take any type of drug without consulting with my physician.

My doctor has me on opana er and with insurance it is still very expensive! I just can't afford it! Do you have any coupons or discounts that could help? ## Hello, Mimi! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you're having. Medications can be quite expensive. There is an assistance program available for Opana ER, you can contact them for more information by calling 866-824-4747 to see if you qualify. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

hello... I recently was rx'd oyxcontin 30mg, 2 x day and I am thinking of switching to opana. first, is opana available as a generic?? second, does it " feel " the same as oxy's?? the oxy's cost me about $ 150.00!! WITH insurance...just looking for something similar without the high cost.. thanks for any and all input.. ## Hi House, I'm only going off my own research here, so I'd like to leave some of the more specific details for those to contribute who've already had personal experience between the two medications. However from what I've read on several threads concerning how it feels in comparison to Oxycodone, information I'm finding reportedly states that it has a less euphoric feeling than Oxycodone. It also is thought to be similar to a str...

My pharmacy (Safeway) will no longer accept Dr. Osborne's Schedule 2 med scripts. Does anyone know here in Tucson of one that will. I get 180 30 mg Oxy and also 20 mg Opana's. Have several auto immune disorders in severe pain. Thanks for the help ## You can no longer get anything filled by dr Osborne his medical license has been revoked ## Anyone know of another good doctor for pain management? ## I recommend Canyon Healthcare. They are accepting new patients, and have had quite a few of Osbournes patients. Call and ask for Tony for an appointment. The fee for office visits are the cheapest in town. ## I agree, Canyon Health on Speedway and Craycroft took my in and treated me real good! ## Did you go to canyon heath ? How did it work out I get 180 too will they prescribe that many

My doctor did a mouth swab test on me friday..unexpectedly..for the most part..i take my medicine correctly..but this month someone decided to help themselves to my pill bottles and took some of the opana and the percoset..so i was low..but the meds were in my system. but my question is.. can they tell the amounts that were in my system..i am scared..due to the fact that i have a back injury and i depend on my meds to let me be able to move.

I take opana 10mg & roxy 15mg. I recently was screened & was told a small level of morphine was detected & there is no reason 4 it, that I can think of. Usually its a urine test given but this time I was given a Salvia test. Im wondering if the salvia test is less accurate? Does anyone have an answer?

i would like more information on the ADF TIMERX in the opana er 40 A.D.F. abuse deterrent features and the side effects of the gell and silicone.that are in this opana er 40. ## Hi Jeffrey, From what I could gather, this formulation of Opana ER 40mg made by Endo Pharma is said to use what's called Grünenthal Group’s INTAC Technology - "which reportedly preserves the extended release characteristics of the medication while at the same time, imparting crush-resistant properties." Ref: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3411218 However, upon approval, the FDA also verified that the addition of this INTAC Technology does not significantly impact the rate of absorption from the actual active ingredient. Though you can find more specific details pertaining to the abuse-de...

Can prescription medications show up positive for drugs in a urine drug screen? ## Hi Scott, To answer your question, yes, the number of medications or substances responsible for causing false-positives are quite staggering in my opinion, considering that labs have the technology to identify the exact substances in question, but prefer to use cheaper methods for standard drug tests. Did you happen to take any sort of over-the-counter or prescription medication that came up positive for something else? ## Can your employer fire you for testing positive with legal prescriptions for pain management ## I was wondering does heroin show up in urine if I'm taking Opanas? I am prescribed Opanas 40mg 3x & roxi 30mg 4x. In a drug ursine sheet from my pm doc. I noticed beside Opana it sys ...

I am in pain management and I currently take oxy 30mg 3x's a day... my doctor is willing to switch me to something else if I want, since the oxys do not provide enough relief. when I asked her what kind of dose I would start at the only thing she would match mg for mg would be morphine..opana she will only start me at 20mg 2 per day. does anyone know if this would be equal to the oxy I take now?? I have read all about how opana is supposed to be about twice as strong as oxy but still I was afraid to switch.. also, does opana " feel " the same as oxy??? thanks to all for reading and replying, HOUSE ## Hello, House! How are you? Morphine is actually weaker than Oxycodone, so matching mg for mg likely won't work. If you were taking 30mgs of Oxycontin, you'd need 45mgs o...

WHY WHEN I TAKE A OPANA 5 MG I CANNOT EVEN TELL I TOOK ANYTHING ?? ## Hello, Cat! How are you? There is no immediate release Opana. As to why it doesn't feel like you took anything, are you tolerant to opiates? That is a fairly low dosage, so if you're used to taking it, or usually take higher doses of other narcotics, this dosage might be too low for you. This medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

I have a urine screen on Monday. I am prescribed Opana40 mg and oxycodone 30s. I ran out of my opanas and hxycodobave been taking morphine pills instead. I still have the oxycodone 30 but the test they do breaks down the opioids. Will the morphine show up as the opana since is oxymorphone hcl?

What is this? I was told it was a 20mg "opana"? Some kind of pain pill..similar to oxycodone or oxycontin? Please help before I take it. It has a light yellow coating. Is it for pain? ## Hello, Julia! How are you? No, this tablet contains 0.5mgs of Ropinirole, which is used to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's Disease and RLS. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, hallucinations and sudden daytime sleep attacks. So no, it will not do anything to alleviate pain. Is there anything else I can help with?

I've been taking 8-12 mg of diladid a day fir servere pain n my back I've run out an I have opana 15 mg ERs so will it be ok to take one a day til I see my doctor ,as in it wont make me o.d. They are both strong meds so I'm thinking since I've built up a tolerance to the diladid that I will be able to take at east one pill a day to keep from being sick an in pain without it being too much ? Any thoughts ## Hello, Filly! How are you? You shouldn't make such a switch, without your doctor's approval. Each 8mg of Dilaudid is equal to 10.67mgs of the Opana. Both of these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. And what could cause an OD depends on each individual p...
