Hello, Ken! How are you doing? I'm very sorry that you're in pain.
How did your doctor's appointment go?
The only thing you can really do is be honest with your doctor about the current dosage regimen not handling your pain and then see what other options they offer to help. Many do prescribe a long acting medication to enable someone to get better pain control, so it's actually kind of odd that they've not tried you on one.
According to the FDA, this is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
