Hi Tracie,

I haven't tried Nucynta (Tapentadol) specifically, but looking at its indications, this medication appears to be marketed for use in treating moderate to severe (acute) pain.

Running a search for Nucynta here on MedsChat (in the search bar above) you can find a number of patient reviews pertaining to its efficacy. Based on what I've seen posted, it looks like it's effective for many individuals, but others have also raised concerns about its long term use and safety.

At the end of the day though, I think the reality is that each individual reacts/responds differently and the only honest way to know for certain how you'll respond is to at least give it a trial run of some sort in order to gauge how you feel.

What other meds are you prescribed along with it?
