You're welcome Patty. This has been an experience. Depo Med has a resource that will find in your area who has the quantities you need. Glad this site is available. I believe it was helpful to a lot of people, including me to you. Be blessed & much success!

Re: Butch J (# 12) Expand Referenced Message

Thanks. I was able to get 100 of the 120 in my script at the only pharmacy that seems, to have any. I think the drs get kickbacks on this or something. I wanted the dr to write for something else instead of having to do all this running around when I can barely take more than a few steps,at a time. Anyway, he wouldnt.

Nycunta ER has not been discontinued. I put a phone number for Depo Med contact but it was removed; the reason for removal of the number was that it could not be verified. I suggest you email/call Depo Med, they will respond. I had my prescription for Nycunta ER filled 10/16/17. Janie at Depo Med said the product number had been changed because Depo Med acquired the company that made the product. But it is still being made.

Just wanted to give an UPDATE in the situation:

I just spoke with Depomed (Monday, October 16th 2017 @ 6:45pm EST) who makes/distributes Nucynta and I can confirm that Nucynta is not being discontinued nor is there an actual lack of availability (see below) for any reason having to do with production. The only thing that changed with Nucynta was it’s “NDC number” which identifies the labeler, product, as well as the trade package size and part of this number is assigned by the FDA. As of the end of September, it is readily available at distributors and any lack of availability is likely a result of the distributor catching up with orders that may have been impacted by the change prior to that time. Walgreens is simply giving out blatantly incorrect information. If you are unable to find the medication, you can call Depomed directly and they will take your information (including which pharmacy you use) and have someone from patient services (I believe that’s the name of the department) call you back in order to try to help you. Depomed’s number is (866) 458-6389.

Re: Butch J (# 8) Expand Referenced Message

I just got off the phone with Walgreens. I dropped a script for Nuycnta. Walgreens first said they had to order it. I just called them and the pharmacist said the manufacturer discontinued it and they tried to get it from two distributors and couldnt. So i called the drs office to ask for something else and she said theyre still making it the problem is it comes from Puerto Rico and thats why they cant get it now.

My doctor lowered my Nycunta from 150mg after a couple of years to 100mg with no explanation. Then Walgreens advised it was discontinued by the maker and the doctors knew it. Hmmm not sure what's going on but I think further investigation is needed.

Has it been discontinued or is it a manufacturer issue? Walgreens told me they have discontinued the med. Is that how you find out you're no longer taking the medication...? The pharmacy has had my prescription since 9/14/17 and notified me yesterday when I called.

My mother has been taking nucynta for years. It's the only drug she doesn't have a reaction to. Her pharmacy has said it was a manufacturing problem and they would have it in a few weeks. Doesn't help right now as a believe she is having withdrawals.

I'm sorry, what thing are you looking for?

I am not finding any information, at this time, that Nucynta, which contains the active ingredient Tapentadol, that is used to treat pain, has been discontinued. However, if it was a very recent action, it may not be added to the FDA databases, yet.

Do you have a source for this information?
