I have recently started taking thhis medication and it seems to work well. Although it does not last 8 hours as prescribed by my DR. After 4 to 6 hours the pain starts to return.

It's only suposed to last that long. Half life means just that. Most ptoplr sleep somrtimes. If you have severe interactive pain ask your doctor to perscribe you Roxicodone 30 mg. tpo evr. 8 hours for breakthrough pain. If She or he knows you have that kind of pain there are no side effects of taking the two together because they are bassically from the same chromium or home as the hexagon goes. Remember not to over do it and take as perscribed, they have to last the whole month. Don't know about you but I'd rather feel something that wears off than a longacting something you barely feel at all.
