Oxycodone 3 40 Mg A Day

Updated

I get prescribed three 40 m a day of oxycontin for chronic back pain. Is there anyone out there who gets a simular prescription and takes other pain meds? If so what other pain meds do you take?

That is correct, many chronic pain patients or those suffering from severe pain due to an injury, get an additional regular release or immediate release medication to help bring their pain under control faster, while waiting for their main medication to kick in.

It is usually a lower dose and can be of the same or a different narcotic.

Roxicodone is a regular release medication that also contains Oxycodone, which is also available in an instant release formulation.

Morphine is another that is also available in these different formulations.

Are there any questions or comments?

IR roxys are the best. Time release oxycontin sucks. for all those people who can't seem to get their scriptgs filled, either ask the managing (boss) pharmacist to order them or get your doctor to write you a lower mg. with a higher quantity. Where there's a will there's a way. Good luck.
