Just started 40 op if take as directed for pain they are great. Even if cut in half works fine. Of course you can't snort or smoke, should not do that any way unless You are a dope head.

Nick, my IQ is not 32, ok man, its actually 28 ! So get your facts straight before you post , ok ! & that's all I have to say about that ! Truthfully, Iam college educated, a BA IN CRIMINAL LAW, & OWN MIKE'S Paralegal serv. I do pro bono work in cooperation for the innocence project, try as I may to free those who have been wrongfully incarcerated. I use to be one of those people ! Albeit I have multiple degenerative disc disease, bi-lateral a/c separations w/L having a humorous separation w/clusters of cysts & bone spurrs , & a host of other nasty injuries containing $ 15.00 words, I get enough pain relief on some days to where I can work on a pro bono basis, from either my bed, or couch, since I'm non ambulatory for a good portion of time, I figured since I cannot work a regular job, & I know how it feels to be wrongfully committed for variously possessing a firearm , & have the now ex wife ultimately recant her testimony , after serving five (5) years ! She was ultimately given 3 months jail & probation ! A slap in my face ! Actually, my IQ is 160 ! Just a LIL FYI trivia ! Hey , Ita my hope that all of you whom are in pain, & taking it in the rear by pharmaceutical companies, & government find believe sought/deserved, as we have all paid our dues , some more than others ! Peace find its way to you, even those who abuse to obtain relief, because I'm non judgmental, & I get it ! ! ! Peace, love & freedom to you all !

Hey Gunney, I was not trying to be antagonistic or an asshole in my last post I was just sharing with you what I understood the drug to be. I am sorry for the amount of pain you are obviously dealing with. I was in a head on car collision with a gentleman who went the wrong way on a one way feeder in League City, Tx doing 85 I was in a 1970 Mercury Cyclone and came out of the lap belt and put my left acetabular into the steering column breaking my hip into 9 pieces and twisting my ACL and MCL as well as breaking the ball and socket off of my femur. Needless to say I have had my hip reconstructed with titanium plates as well as my femur. I have lost all cartilage in my left leg due to the impact as well. I was told if I ever walked again it would be 2 years and with a cane. I was weight bearing on my injury after 2 months and no cane but I am in constant pain and my back is screwed as well. My current Dr. has me taking 15mg oxy imm release I have no idea why though because my previous Dr had me taking 30mg oxy imm release, I am 265lbs and 6' 1'' so who knows what he is thinking, lol. I apologize for the IQ remark Gunney I was having a bad day and just a lil pissed at everything so I hope you have a better day, and I am appreciative to hear that you do pro bono work for those who need it.

NICK, Apology accepted ! we all have bad day's, & I know exactly what it is like to have nowhere to "hide", or get away from the pain ! on a few occasion's, I've actually had suicidal ideation, & twice, an attempt ! ever since the did away with the 160mg oc, & then the #2 80's 3X's daily, I cannot tolerate the op's, & the Opana is really not that effective for me at all ! Actually, the b.t. med's are effective in many way's,( #2 30mg oxicodone 4 X's daily) Q: Any suggestions other than Morphine that would be better for management ? This would be invaluable, & life saving if I were to find an RX that will do that justice ! Thank you for any assistance you may provide ! O , obviously I have an extremely high tollerance, as I was taking #3 160mg a day, with 60 mg oxicodone for bt, then #2 80mg oc 3 X's with the same bt meds. any suggestions I thank you for ! & as far as forgiving , no problem ! If I cannot forgive, then I have no rite asking to be forgiven myself ! I do hope life is good as can be for you, & your pain minimal ! Again, thanks my friend ! ! !

(un)Lucky One:
GET OFF THIS FORUM. You are obviously an insensitive, truly stupid, IDIOT. No one hear understands your Ubonics (sp?) s**t. Just shut up and go away.

I need some info on Opana - is it expensive? Is there a generic version in the US or abroad? I need some real world advice on cost. I have no insurance. Thanks to anyone that can help. I appreciate it.

It is highly expensive. I have no insurance and I spend about 800 a month on 20 mg ER and 120 10 mg IR. It is very very expensive. Call around to diff pharmacies and get diff pricing.. try t ostya away from places like CVS and Riteaid. They are the most expensive.

i take the oxycodone IR30mg 5x daily for break through pain the work very well the only problem with these are they dont seem to work very long, i also take 1 percocet 10mg every 6 hours. i am thinking about asking my doc to try out the opana because the 10mg are not working at all. i blew my wrist out at work and it bothers me 24/7 now its starting to effect my elbow and shoulder. but you should ask about the IR30mg they work well for bad pain right now.

theb opana 40 works the same 4 pain as the oxy 80 but it seems different becaus it gives you a different feeling than the oxy that may be y your mite think the may not work as well I JUST WISH THEY WOULD HAVE NEVER DONE AWAY WITH THE OXY 80MG OC TO THE OP THE OC'S EVEN THOUGH THEY WORK THE SAME I LIKED THE WAY THEY MADE ME FEEL BETTER BUT I GES ITS BETTER GETTING THE OPANA THAN THE OXY 80 OP'S THEY MADE ME FEEL SICK AND DIDNT AGREE WITH ME. I WOULD LOVE TO GET THE ORIGINAL 80 OC'S AGIAN SOME HOW THEY CHANGED MY LIFE I HAD ENERGY AND COULD WALK WITHOUT HELP SOME OF THE TIME ID ALSO TAKE THE 2MG XANAX WITH IT ID LOVE TO BE ABLE TO GET BOTH OR AT THE LEAST 1 OR THE OTHER IF U HAVE A IDEAS HOW

I am so glad to hear someone with RSD found some relief. I was diagnosed with the monster two years ago and I am just about to hopefully win my disability case. It's been hell to find the right doctor and I think I have finally found him. All the past doctors had me on all these muscle relaxers that didn't to s*** for the pain, they just made me a zombie. I had no life, not that I do now. I just turned 35, went through a miscarriage and have been sleeping 10 to 18 hours a day. My knew doctor took me off the muscle relaxers and since I had been on Oxycodone 10 mg for the past two yrs he put me on Roxy 15 mg and ms con-tin 10 mg. I am also on Cymbalta 120mg daily, Topomax 400mg daily, Trazedone 300mg nightly, zanaflex (if I need it), I can't remember anything else. Anyway, I know the hell you've gone through. RSD changes your whole life and everyone looks at you and sees you as a normal person but inside your screaming. This doctor actually listens to me and is not afraid to write prescriptions that will help me with my quality of life I need so badly. I have been so depressed. I don't even care if I get out of bed most days. The weird thing is that the Roxy 15mg was like taking Tylenol for me, but I would have to take two of them which I shouldn't have had to do. The morphine helped a bit but at night it would just knock me out. At least I was going to sleep early and actually waking up at a decent time, rather than 7pm! But I was still in horrible pain. He had made an appointment for me two weeks later and at that appt. I told him the situation and he said sometimes the reason for the Roxy not working and it still being in the oxycodone family is the manufacturer. So he put me back on the oxycodone 10mg but wrote my script for 180 so if I needed to take two I could. Then he wrote me a script for Opana 10mg for a trial basis to see if they would work for me and if I liked them we would try the extended release. He said I needed something that works around the clock as well as something for breakthrough. The Oxycodone really works well for me but hearing about all these changes with the Oxycontin, which I've never taken I don't really know what to think about that. Have you ever tried that. I think you mentioned something about Methadone? I might be mistaken, but since you have had RSD a lot longer than I have do have any advice for me on any medication that has worked for you or is it what you are taking now? I now you are on the high doses because of how long you've had this disease I hate that for you, my blessings are with you. I hope one day there will be a cure in our lifetime, but I am not very hopeful at this time unfortunately. I used to be a very optimistic person and always look at the positive side of things. But after dealing with this chronic pain day after day it has gotten to me and something inside me has changed. I am not the same person I use to be. I use to always have a smile on my face and now it's hard to find anything to smile about. I am trying though, I really am. Blessed Be to you.

I was taking 4 -80mg oxys a day about two years ago,I
got changed to 2-40mg opanas a day.Of course I had to adjust to not having as much meds,but the opanas are good for my knees (which need replaced) My pain level is tolerable. I would not trade my opanas for 2-30mg oxycodone at one time.

MS Cotton is "Morphine Sulfate" which is just Morphine in a pill form. I was on them and found them to be useless and non-effective.

I'm on 2 opana 40's a day 1 every 12 hours, and 3 oxcycodone's for break through pain every 8 hours and the combination works pretty good. I still hurt but I have severe back problems. I've tried all the other meds and they dont even compare to the opana's. I would be put on those with something for break through pain. Also Fentynal aint worth a s*** excuse my language.
