REPORT

Zydot last month I tried the name brand Opana ER, it is garbage, I waited 48 hours, and it passes through to my bowels still in tact as when I put it in my mouth. I took it straight to Dr s office, it was destroyed and he wrote me for my og mscontin. Doc and I were trying to find something a little stronger as I have new diagnosis, but helluva time w ins. Covering after searching for a pharmacy that had the Opana ER, nobody in 15 mile radius had it so in had to wait 5 days for it to be. ordered in.

What dosage of the Opana?

The Oxymorphone in it is actually twice as strong as the Oxycodone, so if you were taking 40mgs of it, then the equivalent dose of Oxycodone would be 80mgs.

Both can be effective at controlling pain, it just requires a dosage adjustment.

You should also know that there are no more Oxycontin OCs. Purdue has changed the formulation and they are now Oxycontin OP.

Are there any questions or comments?

Does anyone else have advice to add?

I guess peoples body's work in different way's. I'm a chronic pain patient and was on 3 15 mg Morphine ER and 6 Hydrocodone's a day, my dr switched me off of the Morphine and to 15mg Opana's 3 a day and I think it's a miracle drug !! Not to mention that if you chew the jelly buggers you get the pain relief a LOT sooner and a hyper chatty type feeling. I think they're the best thing since sliced bread, I've had FOUR hip replacements two of which dislocated and a torn meniscus due to being hooked up to the medical equivalent of a come-a-long to put my hip back in place.

Yes and the GENERIC Opana 40 mgs. are both cheaper and more effective at managing pain. The non-generic ones are crap.

Ask your doctor for the GENERIC Opana ER-HUGE difference and it doesn't have that (basically plastic) coating coating around it that keeps the name brand ones intact. Generic is also cheaper too and insurance will cover it!
