I Get 90 10mg Oxycodone From My Doctor Each Month - I Want To Know What Minimum He Can Give Me Per Month (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I want to know why my dr. will only prescribe me 90 pills of 10mg oxycodone for a month yet know people that get up towards 120 a month. Because by the end of my month I have to live in pain for a week and a half before I can drive to his office wait in the waiting room and finally be see, just to get the same 90, which aren't enough.

Years ago I took 1800mg of oxycodone per month for. About a year. Decided to quit cold turkey it was about a week of hell, but as of may 2010 I have never had another!!!

Hi, I am on 70mg of methadone a day and 20mg of oxy a day, which the methadone blocks the oxy, so I dont even no why i take it. The methadone takes away my libido too. Before the methadone and oxy i was on suboxone. It was great, no withdraw, had a healthy libido. It works great and helps with pain too. Before suboxone i was on 80mg oxycontin and 40 mg percocet. My doc went to jail and I had to get suboxone through other means. I did very well on suboxone for two years. Till i found another pain doc. Now last week my doc told me she is retiring and i don't no what to do. Trying to wean off methadone and find a new pain doc. I am actually kind of happy this is happening as I hate the methadone. I went from 70mg to 40mg in one week with the help of kratom, which is another good thing for withdraw that you can order online. It's all natural and it helps. I think im going to try and get off this crap altogether with kratom. I am sick of the huge monkey on my back. These pain meds suck. No way to live. Yes i have pain but, don't know what's worse pain or addiction. I hope this helps ya. My suggestion is go to suboxone then from suboxone to kratom and get your life back. God bless.

I'm sorry that you are also dealing with chronic pain, but how can you imply that someone is in less pain than you? I'm sure you have no idea what kind of pain this person is in. Regardless of the cause, living with chronic pain every day sucks.

It's a shame that there are people that abuse or sell their narcotic medications. It just makes it harder for people that legitimately need them to get the pain management they really need.

I suffer on a daily basis with IC and 5 other chronic conditions. I can't eat or sleep and doctors are at the point that nothing is working. They have tried PT and botox. I take oxycodone but both my doctors want me to find a new pain management doctor that will work with them. My present one won't even take their calls.
I live in Delaware County PA and really need some names of good pain doctors.

Hello,

I started pain management here in Florida today. My doctor was amazing. He switched me from tramadol that my primary gave me to roxicodone 10mg because he found that I actually have 3 different painful back/neck conditions. But the answer to your question, this is exactly what my pain doctor said today. Because i used to take 30 mg roxicodone (oxycodone ir) i requested to be switched back to that. My doctor said that the dea has banned even pain doctors from prescrobing oxycodone 30mg. The dea (in florida) has determined that there is no medical use in such high doses of oxycodone. Its been deemed a dose that has no medical value or benefit. He said that the dea says 15 mg is the highest mg needed to achieve pain relief. HOWEVER the dea allows 30mg oxycodone to be prescribed to ONLY people who are in chronic pain from cancer or who is about to die. Otherwise dea in the state of Florida has banned all doctors from prescribing 30mg of oxycodone..

Yes.. i agree.. its total bulls*** that the dea thinks they have the right to decide what doctors can and cant prescribe.. because I was prescribed 30mg oxycodone 4 years ago and omg it worked. Today i took 10 mg of oxycodone.. no where near the same relief of pain. Therefore it is a medically needed drug in high doses. The dea just thinks because some people abuse the drug that everyone should suffer in agony. So they block drugs that work from being prescribed...

So no I wouldnt ask your doctor for 30mg of oxycodone. He will assume your drug seeking AND he has to say no anyways because of the dea rules. So save yourself the trouble and just tell him you need something stronger. Dont specifically ask for oxycodone 30mg. Its gonna set a red flag..

Hope this helps..

Ps.. some doctors may break the rules and still prescribe it. So know if your doctor does then your laws may be different. Or your doctors eventually getting arrested!

Hope this helps!

Hi everyone I have suffered enormous pain in feet neck and back, not to mention pain due to 8 heart surgeries within 18 months. Doctors have refered me to pain management. Thursday will be my first appointment. These conditions are excruciating and I will need the maximum pain dosage. I will be requesting 30mg roxicodone. Should i have any problems with this request or treatment.

Diclofenac may increase your risk of fatal heart attack or stroke, Diclofenac may also cause stomach or intestinal bleeding, which can be fatal. These conditions can occur without warning while you are taking this medicine.

Great! The FDA should be disbanded. A mythology/agenda.. You, other docs and medical experts have either been sheepled into or scared into. People in real pain are absolutely displaying "drug seeking behavior". Why? Because they are in pain. But oh my the docs are scared (rightfully and shamefully so) by the FDA's enforcer- DEA and DEA # on script. It's our body! Hello- Roe vs Wade. It's not the government's place to be the compassionate enforcer of medical decisions. It sickens me. Crazy thing- schedule drugs became scheduled about 100 years ago (mostly moral and religious). The irony of course is the incredible rise of abuse since the Scheduling Act. I won't even bother with pot.. Crap, the least addictive "illegal" drug is a schedule 1.

hello,
I am new to this site.. and have a couple questions.. i Injured my left knee about 4 months ago, had an MRI with all clear results (showing nothing wrong), so I was reffered to physical therapy, and luckily (because I am still experiencing a lot of pain in my knee 3-4 times a week) the therapist told my doc that she believes I have a meniscus tear despite negative MRI Results.

So with that said, my question is I am prescribed 60 10mg OXYCODONE HCL tabs prescribed twice a day..for the past two months. However, they work but only for a couple hours when i need them, and i dont feel they are accurately treating my pain. And I dont want to seem like a junkie or whatever as I am 25y/o and know that these are addictive, so I am not sure how to approach my doctor about this. Im not sure if i should ask for higher dose (such as 15mg), or more pills a month, etc...?

any info would be great.. Thank you!

Anyone know a doctor in the Greenville area of SC who will prescribe Oxycodone 30 mg.? I am moving to this area. I have been taking this medication for almost 3 years. It works well for my knees. I can provide my medical records.
I have called numerous doctors and been told I would need to wait 6 months after becoming a patient to be given this medication, even though I have valide medical records.

I see where some comments say you are taking a lot now. That's not really accurate. The people I know who go to Pain Management get 120 30 mg roxicodone's a month and 3 80mg Oxycotin's monthly, so just tell your Dr. that you need more, heck your in pain.

I also was on excessive opioids for about ten year's.I started out on 80mg oxytocin 4Tid +30mg roxiecodone 30 mg 4 Tid + 2 mg xanax 4Tid and finally 4Somas a day.As of this year the doc's are on strict limits on what they should prescribe.You must go to pain managment once a month now and their even cutting back.I was lucky and had a morphine pump implant which controls leftleg sciatica.Not much for lower back though.It's extremely hard to drop your dose so quickly but can be done.I now take 15 mg oxycodone 3 Tid.I'm still in pain but its tolerable. Believe me if I did it anyone can lower their dose.We don't like it but that's what the law is doing not your doc.Good luck and God bless.

I CAN TELL YOU YOU NEED NO OPIATE DRUGS FOR PAIN. HAVE YOUR DOCTOR PRESCRIBE DICLOFENAC INSTEAD.

oxycodone is probably one of the more addictive prescription drugs out there, I Had similar experiences like the terror at night for no apparent reason and libido problems. Plus it always seemed to wear off really quick and I found myself constantly wanting my next dose. You could try Suboxone. One half of an 8mg pill will relieve all of your oxy withdrawal symptoms and youll have your libido back. one 8mg will hold any opiate user out of withdrawals and help you get your life back.

This medication can cause your heart to race and it can also stop your breathing. If you take sedatives along with it for anxiety there is a higher risk of stopping breathing in your sleep. If your chest tightens that's a sign you need to go to dr ASAP and tell them your symptoms and maybe they can switch your medication. Have you ever woke up in middle if sleeping and start choking, coughing, gasping for air? if you have thats a very scary sign that your body was shutting down. It's also a very hard drug to come off of, I have a friend who has been off of this medication for almost a year and she still doesn't feel right. Good luck and I hope you can get things figured out.
