At the hospital with heart and chest pain. Already on a Fentanyl patch and its not working. Is there anything stronger than the Fentanyl patch?

Dilaudid IV. But with heart problems you probably can’t take it.

Well it's not a drug, but a spinal cord stimulator helps a lot .... I researched them for 2 year b4 I decided to go with it ... during my research I like the boston scientific reviews the best (you tube has both company & end user videos) I was on 75mcg patch. & 6 10/325s I am now on only the morphine equivalent of 50mg a day & doing better than when on patch & pills there is a videographer on YouTube that has a 3 year long history of videos on his experiences with boston scientics stimulator his channel is djporkchop73 his videos help me considerably....... just some info (oh yeah no drug fog/hangover neither just say n)

Hi Chris, I was on methadone year's ago
and that doe's work really good, but if you wanted to stop that, it's withdrawal is just as bad as opioid withdrawal, I have been on suboxone now for 4 year's, the best decision I ever made.

Diconal and Palfium are very strong opioids, don't know if still available however. Good luck.

Worst thing they ever did was take heroin off the medical list, my Neurologist told me that. Apparently nothing like the rubbish they push on the streets, but something that stops pain. Why should people be forced to put up with pain when they have the cure? Think it all comes down to money again, who made them gods??

That used to be true, but now the strength depends on the manufacturer, where more and more pharmacies are going to India's Pharmaceutical companies to both improve their profits margin "and" comply with our "feckless" POTUS's continued lies of a fake epidemic that have no basis in fact

Methadone or suboxone if you are quitting opiates but still need pain control.....both are very well tolerable.

Don’t do it.... I’ve had a deep brain stimulator installed last year. It was a horrible procedure and the electricity that passes through a damaged nervous system would hurt more then the original issue. I wouldn’t do it again if I had a choice. They don’t have it down yet and is highly experimental. I’d advise against it from someone who went through it for neuro pain brought on by MS.

Desuvia is the strongest pain medication on the market. It’s pharmacology name is sulfentanyl. Recently approved by the FDA for use only in hospitals and emergency rooms. For acute pain only.

Yes there is a drug only administered in a hospital that is called Desuvia and is more potent than fentanyl by 25 times. The FDA just approved it 1mo ago. Sulfentanyl is used for oral administration when pain relief isn’t able to be controlled under normal circumstances. Ask your doctor or nurse. My name is Chris

There is one medication, however getting it is now impossible but it’s called cot-fentanyl. It is 100 times the strength of fentanyl. You must have a high tolerance.One sand of grain of it would kill you. It has to be delivered in micrograms.

What would b strong enough if I quit the opioids
If I were to come off of the opioids because I'm hearing a lot of dangerous things about the opioids if I were to come off the fentanyl patch and the morphine what can I take that would help me with this pain and be as strong or a little bit stronger than the fentanyl in the morphine together

Of course, the patch is used more for chronic pain, even a hyromophone if would be better, or an i.v rent drip,

God help us all, when it states that a med is x times stronger than another med this is all bulls***. Fentanyl is not xx times stronger or more potent than morphine, which sucks anyway. The fact is mg to mg or mcg to mg yes it is but that is not the proper way to look at it. Look in the PDR from a few years back and it will say buprenorphine (subutex) in IV or IM form is 10000 more potent than morphine. A single dose ampule is .03mg. You have to convert these dosages.

It's all in the math which is manipulated. Did you know the United States uses over 95% of the worlds hydrocodone? Well of course we do, because most other countries do not use it. Go to a hospital in Europe and their first line moderate to moderately server pain med they start you with is oxycodone. The USA is wrong in many areas related to analgesics. Example, Diamorphone is a safer and better pain med than morphine and it affects the respiratory system less. That's why it's used in England and other parts of the world.

W-18 is 100 times stronger than Fentanyl. Am on Fentanyl & was concerned about that sort of thing too. Did have oral surgery & forgot Meds changed around same time I saw him last. Wasn't in pain but could have been my last mistake. Hope you feel much better.

I have an implanted pump that delivers a mix of painkillers and a muscle relaxer. The painkiller used in my pump is Sufenta, also known as sufentanil, which is about 5 times stronger than fentanyl. In addition, I take 15mg morphine sulfate up to twice a day for breakthrough pain. Perhaps the pump is an option for you? Because it's continual, people have found to need less overall and since it bypasses the usual oral route, it doesn't produce the "high" from working on other systems but rather goes right to the root of the pain and delivering a more profound level of relief.
