Fentanyl Patch 75 Mcg Vs Oxycontin 120 Mg

Updated

Doctor just took me off 120 mg OxyContin daily and switched me to Fentanyl 75 mcg. What can I expect as far as differences in the effects? Are these two separate doses equal in strength?

Yes, Fentanyl is the strongest opiate narcotic that is available.

The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

However, the only way to discover how well it will work for you is by trying it.

Have you started using it, yet?
