User Reviews for oxycodone oral

I have been on this med for 2 yr's now and am very pleased.The only problem i have is constipation and it is horrible.I have now became dependant on laxatives. Anybody out there got any advise?

In the last 2 years I have had both hips replaced and am looking at a knee replacement within the next year or so. Without this medication I would not have been able to continue with my daycare business, as all three joints have been rubbing bone on bone..............Very painful. I will probably have some type of addiction to this drug when the time comes that I won't have to take it anymore (after my knee surgery) but I will worry about that when the time comes. It helped me get through the last 3 years.Read More Read Less

I don't swallow pills well, so my doctor gave me elixir Oxycodone. I experienced LOTS of side effects, like dry mouth and nausea. It also made me light-headed. I don't know about other experiences with O.C., but I found it only relieves pain for 3-4 hours, forcing you to keep taking it.

I had never had this medication before. I used it for severe pain after having diverticulitus. I was able to sleep pain free. I realize it's a narcotic and have never taken any before but it worked very well for me when other medications weren't even taking the "edge" off the pain.

THE OVERALL EFFECT OF THIS DRUG IS VERY HABIT FORMING.THE WITHDRAW SYMPTOMS ARE EXTREMLY BAD ,FEELS AS IF YOU ARE BURNING UPFROM THE INSIDEOUT. BOTTOM OF FEET,HANDSALL OVER BODY LOSE WEIGHT BADDRUG IN MY PERSONAL OPINION IT SHOULD BE MORE RESOURCH DONE PEOPLE ABBUSE THIS DRUG AND NEVER RECOVER FROM IT PEOPLE ARE DYING AND NO ONE SEEMS TO REALIZE IT

I have used oxyodone for pain for over 4 years now. Lately somebody told me to try Ultram long acting instead. Does anybody have experience with switching and which is better ?

I use this drug for Interstitial Cystitis. Nothing takes the pain 100% away, but this drug does a good job of allowing me to live my life.

i have had a pinal fusion on s1,l5,l4

I was put on this med after back surgery.I ound it very effective and had no effects.

caused vomiting

I was put on this for severe pain several years ago. I had tried and taken so many other pain meds that really did not work. This drug works great. I have severe neck pain due to damage and three failed surgeries. Also joint pain, bone pain etc that all seemed to come on after failed surgeries. This medication has allowed me to function much more than any other. I understand its addictiveness and will address that if I ever find a way to end the pain. I also had to take a lot other types of meds for pain due to stomach. This drug does not hurt my stomach either. I am very thankful to have been put on this medication. I cannot get any highter strength that 40mgs 3xs a day because I cannot stand feeling fuzzy headed and I can't stay awake. The dosage I am on now controls the pain pretty good. I have other meds for the break through pain.Read More Read Less

I was prescribed this medicine after a motorcycle accident. Me arm was repaired utilizing hardware. It was very effective in treating the pain. Problem is, the Dr kept me on it too long and I became dependant on it. It is a VERY hard drug to stop after using for a while.
