Ladies/Gents:
These more recent two posters put much of their time and energy into answering what is an extremely important, possibly the most often asked/wished they knew, subject/question among all us pain patients and certainly should be one that every pain patient should educate themslves about as best as possible...

...would a qualified person (these most recent & lengthy posts are great starts, almost all the info in fact) write-up a simple three or four column chart that sneers these HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE posting this same question and the thousands who wntto know who haven't yet posted:

HERE's MY ATTEMPT AT VERBALIZING THAT QUETION THAT DOZENS OR HUNDREDS OF US ARE ASKING AND THAT WE ALL WANT AND SHOULD KNOW:

How do the most commonly prescribed pain pills/meds compare in strength (milligram to milligram??) and effectiveness to those other most common and similar pain pills/meds that are most commoly prescribed for pain?

Some initial decisions to narrow down what could end up being an encyclopedia-like flow chart. To do that, my thoughts (but im open and can undertand most nything hrownmy way....decide for the"aversge Joe" is my first narrowing suggestion; (2) only include "opiates" and then incluing a "Note" at boton giving the general comprison with the Patch (which is indeed only available in milligrains .... making a infusing comparison impossible.... as compared to milligrams for the others discussed); (3) merge those with the same base/root drug {Oxycotin/Oxycodone, Morphine/Daludid/Fentynile ETC.} in order to reduce the number of headers/columns to a small number, 3 or 4 (I know that's small and we all have access to Excell but for this blog and or the masses I feel strongly that the simpler the better,,,with obviously some Obvious common sense standards); (4) then limit those up & down options to the same three most common strengths (maybe I can suggest it: .50mg, 5mg, 10mg & 30mg)...maybe not...doesn't the Opanna come in much .50 & 1.0 & 5.0 tiny milligram numbers?

If someone truly is certain, and if they wouldn't mind taking up their time doing so, it seems to me [and it's no coincidence that it would answer/address the question I had which brought me to this exact, VERY popular subject/question] that many past, pending & future questions would be more easily understood and answered more efficiently and with more confidence....

This would be the most important and impact full question & answer EVER POSTED here and unite possible could change lives or the better; possibly even save lives too! Warm Regrds, "Tenn-Timmy"

Diludid is not a time released med so it's always going to work better than a time released med like OxyContin. Exspecialy now a days the new way they make time realesed meds is horrible the actual drug doesn't release into your body like they used .to
