Mylan 100mcg/hrfentanyl Transdermal Patch
(Newest replies first)

Updated

Since being on this patch fourteen days, my restless legs have become much worse.Can this be related to the pain patch? I now take 1 MG of Klonopin, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Has anyone had this same problem?

It is possible, since this medication does affect the central nervous system, it basically acts as a depressant.

The FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, constipation, and headache.

Are you on any other medications?

Have offered information about fentanyl patches 100 ul.1-Q72·Hrs.because of the war on Drugs,mainly,marijuana,we, veterans are getting treated as criminals as though it's strange for us to have extraneous pain.We couldn't call in a sick day,had to work-sick/well.war is really hell.NOW,we've become the bottom feeders according to any VA doctor who takes a dislike to you.Please..Anyone who has issues with chronic pain,don't stop voicing opposition to the way politicians are NOW making medical decisions.if it can happen to veterans,civilians stand no chance.

I do have a question..you think prisoners in Gitmo,ever had to beg for care,as we Americans or the multitude of illegal aliens overwhelming our medical facilities to the degree they can't function?? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE? American patients have to beg for proper pain medication: YET prisoners in Gitmo- illegals get whatever they need... maybe someone has been smoking that funny marijuana..... If you're not afraid, I'd really like to hear from other veterans. please/PLEASE FOR THE PERSON ASKING ABOUT THE FENTANYL PATCH AND INCREASED FRUSTRATION WITH RLS- I know rls is a neurological disorder that causes pain/involuntary movements of the legs upon relaxation.It's listed as a sleep disorder, and a physician I have talked with suggested using Requip-a drug for Parkinson's disease. THINK,WHAT DOES THE DISEASE DO, it causes involuntary movements of the body. Check the list of drugs that cause increased problems and you'll be surprised at the different ones we never consider to be the culprits. Seriously, benzodiazepines can increase the problem, so can benadryl... Check the list. look up rls/drugs that cause involuntary movement. Also ask your Dr about the Requip. If you're already miserable, what can it hurt to research for yourself? there's a wealth of information at your fingertips on any medical issues.enter it as a question...you'll be overwhelmed with information,GOOD information.
