I am very sorry to read that you are having a problem.

The Exalgo and the Dialudid both contain the same active ingredient, the narcotic Hydromorphine, so if one didn't work for you, then it makes sense that the other wouldn't, either.

Opana contains Oxymorphone and from the title of your post, are you saying that the new Oxycontin doesn't work, either?

If that is the case, what other options have you discussed with your doctor?

On possibility is Morphine, it is available in 3 formulation, instant release, time release and regular release:

There is also a time released patch on the market that contains the active ingredient Fentanyl, commonly prescribed under the trade name Duragesic:

Both of these have worked well for many people, when other pain management options had failed.

They are both narcotics, so the side effect profiles are similar: nausea, drowsiness, constipation and dizziness.

i take 80 mg OP, sometimes I cut it in half. Can you cut an exalgo in half? I know they say not to and its dangerous, but can you, really?
