The DEA wants opana er off the market. They should be taking fentanyl off the market before anything else!!! People are putting it in pills, illicit drugs, etc!!! And yes, what are we supposed to be on after that!! I hope they don't take it off, but is it ALL oxymorphome or just the formula of opana er?

First of all, i agree whole heartedly that Fentanyl needs to come off the market because it's so dangerous. In my state, the vast majority of opiate related deaths can be attributed to it. As to your question about Opana ER, just about every drug, if not all of them, have a list of ingredients. However, if your dose is 10 mg, then there is 10 mg of Oxymorphone in each tablet. I hope that gave you the answer you were looking for. I do want to caution you that Opana ER has some very strong warnings about the possibility of. respiratory depression. In addition, there are even more serious warnings about consuming any alcohol along with the Opana ER. Tcan cause very severe respiratory depression that can easily lead to death. I suppose these are the reasons they want it taken off the market. I hope everything works out for you, but whatever you do, please be careful. Good luck.

My insurance won't cover anything but the ER. I think it's because so many people want to misuse them.

I'll be 65 next month and have been dependent, addicted to oxycodone for over 12 years. Now that Governor Scott has declared a State Of Emergency along with President Trump to fight the opiate emergency, out of nowhere is cutting my prescriptions with the eventual goal of ZERO oxycodone. I blame myself for getting hooked on this crap but the Veterans Administration went way out of its way to make my situation worse. I know for a fact that cutting my pain meds is going to result in turning me into what I always feared. A burden to my wife where I will be unable to do the work around the house and yard. I will become a permanent lump on my easy chair. I am mad as hell. The government is fighting the wrong people. It is the CIA and the Chertoff Group behind the opiate crisis in America. Watch the true movie, Kill The Messenger about a pulitzer prize winning journalist that exposed CIA drug running and got the CIA to admit that they formulated CRACK to get a rich mans drug into the ghettos and as a result, got the CIA to make a public apology to East LA. Was it all along the long-range plans of the CIA to addict millions of veterans to opiates to create a huge market for their Afghanistan opium? In all those pictures of our soldiers walking through the poppy fields in Afghanistan, why aren't they burning the plants to the ground? When the Taliban outlawed poppy farms it was not long till we sent our troops to protect those poppy fields. Was it the CIA that gave the cash to pay the doctors for writing scripts for opiates?

Is Opana 10mg the same as Oxycodone 20mg? I thought Opana was double Oxycodone but someone told me Opana 10mg was like taking 50 Percocet 10s, which would be a lot stronger than I thought. What is the real equivalence here?

I'm on 15mg immediate release Roxy oxy 3 times a day you must determine whose measurement tools you inclined to use. Most doctors use a morphine equivalent standard. The person who posted a link to a calculator is probably familiar with what I'm talking about. What I haven't heard anyone talk about is the human body inside each of us as reacts different for each one of us. My doctor tried to put me on an extended release oxycontin with immediate release oxycodone for breakthrough pain he couldn't get the VA to foot the bill so I was stuck with 30mg morphine ER then all the s*** went down with everyone getting kicked off and here I am on 9 -30mg morphines a day with 12 x 5mg oxycodone immediately release.....so after about a year I noticed in the beginning the morphine wouldn't touch the pain level it was either eat two and feel nothing or eat as prescribed and it tapered off. Anyway my body was so used to the morphine I don't believe it worked correctly after the first two weeks maybe 6weeks then nothing I knew I had to change up something cause they were kicking everyone off for asking for increases so I asked for a decrease cut the morphine out and leave my oxycodone alone luckily that worked and I'm still on the same does 10 years later working fine been on opiates 19 years. So switching to opana or anything else create your self an out or a deal in writing if you can the Damn DEA makes us sign abuse contracts! Try and make your sign something saying he won't just cut you off like so many I've heard from cause once your cut your never getting out on a narcotic in this country until we all stand up and force them to change the laws...

Re: Andrew (# 65)

My liver is checked annualy and so far for the last 19 years I haven't had any other problems I know of became allergic to gluten but don't think it's related. I ask you honestly who do you think you are to dictate to another what they can and can't do? Maybe the guy has no legs because he lost them from an ied while saving your freedom to say such stupid things like stretch more and your hurting your liver. I mean your life must be so excellent simply outstanding you must be in every aspect of your life that affords you the audacity to spread your cynical views onto others. I'm ashamed to be wasting my words on an obviously perfect human being who doesn't need correction nor except criticism. It's disheartening and troublesome we share the same name good luck Andrew!
