Oxymorphone Reviews

Show: for
Prescribed by the pain clinic doc. Seems to be one of the better pain relievers Ive been on. Funny half the healthcare professionals I see have never heard of it.
Working / Worked
Working quite well but my tolerance builds up pretty fast
Working / Worked
Amazing Im on 90mg a day 30mg extended release twice a day 10mg instant release three times a day. Typical side effect profile.
Working / Worked
Works well, but my teeth are rotting! DDS says it's from opiates. Quit taking it.
Working / Worked
Am taking 40 mg. of Opana extended release Dilaudid. It helps a bit with the all over pain. If I forget to take it I can tell the difference.
Working / Worked
I take Opana ER and IR. This is actually my 2nd time taking it. The first time I tried it I didnt give it enough credit and TRIED to find something that would work better. Well needless to say I am now back on it and find that it works best when taken at regular scheduled times. I also dont get any kind of euphoric feeling from it.
Working / Worked
Does take the edge off especially when first getting up out of bed.
Working / Worked
using with kadian and it's good for a break through pain med along with Muscle relaxer
Working / Worked
a combo pill of Oral Morphine and OxyContin. Works the best of any meds I've tried with fewer and less severe side effects of either drug individually as long as directions are followed EXACTLY. Still very tired, can't work/drive, confusion, disoriented, some mood swings, sleeping gets disrupted.
Working / Worked
Took the ER-Extended Release. Worked well for this. Some days my back didn't bother me at all. No upset stomach but constipation. Very few side effects.
