What Is The Next Dose Up For Oxycodone 10 325

I AM TAKING HYDROCO/APAP 5-325MG TAB 1 PILL EVERY 6 HRS FOR PAIN I AM IN TEARS. ISN'T THERE A STRONGER PILL FROM DR. ## Yes, there are many stronger pills. You should call your doctor and tell them that your medication is not helping the pain. I hope you get some relief soon. ## Hi Gary, Post #1 is right about there being a lot of other options for pain relief; many of which are stronger than a 5mg dose of hydrocodone + 325mg of acetaminophen. If it were me, I would talk with my doctor about upping the dose of hydrocodone to 7.5mg or 10mg, since that is considered to be the "next step up" in terms of potency. From there it seems like oxycodone, opana, dilaudid, fentanyl, extended release meds, etc, are reserved for more serious or long term cases of chronic pain management.....

I'm on oxycodone 10-325mg every 8 hours. I'm having my 4th cervical/thoracic surgery in less than two years, next week and it will be changed to every 4 hrs. I will run out before my time to get it filled. What should I do? ## Hi Roni! If your Dr. Changes your dose 2 take more medication, then, they will realize u r going 2 run out earlier. And, when u do, they should give u another prescription. That's happened 2 me. The Doctor increased my meds.After surgery, and, I ran out early. They gave me another prescription.

I've been on oxycodone for almost 2 years, following a bad automobile accident. I became dependent and was taking upwards of 75-85mg per day. I'm finally on a step-down regimen, starting with 60mg per day for a week, then 50mg a day/ per week, 40mg per day/week and so on, until I finish 10mg per day for a week. I foolishly took more than I was supposed to this week (had a death in the family that put me over the edge). I can't fill my next Rx until the end of this week and was petrified of withdrawal, so I slapped on a 25mcg fentanyl patch. It's been 25 hours and I developed a terrible headache. Last dose of oxycodone was yesterday afternoon, 5/325. Put patch on at 10pm. Just took patch off at 11:30pm tonight and was wondering - if I start taking my oxycodone again tomor...
