User Reviews for OxyContin oral

pain from an car wreck

sofar the drug is not working far

Its a wonder drug it works great for me. I take 4 80s and 6 30ir a day been on it for 15 years

I had a 15,000 lb. forklift crashed my right foot almost 9 yrs ago. I have been in constant pain since then. I have been seen by up to a dozen Drs. including the head of the Neurological dept. at Mass. General in Boston. I've done everything that have suggested - nerve blocks, lidocain infusions, P/T and more meds. then I can remember. The only medication that has been of any help - has been the oxycontin. The best were the OC - but now all you can receive is OP. I'm on 60 mg. 3-4 times a day plus 20mg. as needed - probably 2-4 daily with 5mg. oxycodone break through. With the meds. I'm a pain level 4 to 5! I have to live with this - as it's the only relief I can get - I don't want to go any higher as its affects my day to day functions. I should also say that my final diagnosis was permanent soft tissue damage and permanent nerve and vascular damage. It's not a perfect life - but its better than being at a 7 or 8 pain level all the time. Read More Read Less

Zappa this is for u. I had no insurance besides workers comp which just pays for work injury of course. The hospital clinic signed me up for that Obama care Medicade. Tell him to sign up for it. At a clinic or call wellfare department ask them to send u forms. Good luck !

It helps for a short time, I find myself taking more and more and I do not like that. I need real help.

After trying Morphine-ER and morphine I-R for breakthru pain, it wasn't working for me. I had issues with the medication so my Dr. switched me to Oxycontin 40mg 2x daily with oxycodone 10mg for break thru pain. I've been on this for about 6 months and it has truely worked for me (chronic severe lower back pain) I rarely need the break thru medication as the dosage I'm on seems for the most part to work as intended. No weird feelings, no slow feeling etc. If you take the OxyContin don't miss your doses. Keep on schedule as this is a pain management/maintenance medication and is intended to be taken continously as prescribed.Read More Read Less

I have un-operable back pain. I am using 1 to 2 20mg per day. WITHOUTH this medication I am absolutely useless and in sever pain. the side effects are: constipation, slower memory and edgy.

It Worked well at first...Bot now I Feel my pain got worse. I Hurt so Bad everyday. and getting worse.

I have the itching, but it has been controlling a great deal of pain

It has affected my mental status.I feel "flat" agitated,& restless. Also thoughts of death creep in. Don't be alarmed, I see my pain doc on Mon. & I don't live alone.

I have been on this product for years with no problems. My quality of life has greatly improved with this drug.

Great as I am allergic to; Aspirin, NSAID's and all other aspirin derivatives. Have Rheumatoid Arthritis and DMARD's make me vomit and don't relieve pain. This medication has enabled me to continue to enjoy life, even though tolerance is an issue occasionally. When this happens, I skip one tablet for a couple of days, then return to the correct dose and find that the tolerance has disappeared for a while.

I don't like the feeling of being on this drug. It does not relieve pain and I refuse to take a stronger dosage. I am in the 'withdrawal' phase - feelings of anxiety, depression and hating others for no reason.

I HAVE BEEN ON PAIN MEDICATIONS FOR OVER TEN YEARS. Nothing seems to work for me anymore.

side effects were not pleasant. They put me in agitated mood, had hallucinations. I was dizzy and almost fainted.
