Oxyneo Replacement

I'm taking oxyneo 3x20mg dayly for fibromyalgia. Can I replace the oxyneo with Ralivia or Tramacet. At what reduction rate should this be done safely?

Hi pibird,

I have read of Oxyneo users switching to the medication Ralivia, so I'm sure it's possible. When it comes to the dosage you should really ask your doctor, since it will be based on a number of factors like medical history, age, weight etc..

If you'd like, you can post in this thread where other users discuss switching from Oxyneo to Ralivia:

@pibird,

In my honest opinion, switching over from such a high dose of Oxyneo (oxycodone extended release) to what's considered to be a much more noticeably weaker opioid, should probably be done under the supervision of your doctor or health-care provider.

Reason being is that the jump over to a weaker medication may provoke withdrawal-like symptoms. (Especially since OxyNeo is in extended release form and the other two options you mentioned are not).

Sitting down with your doctor and drawing out a tapering schedule would also probably be your safest bet in order to move forward with one of the other alternatives.

I hope this helps!
