The sulphate in morphine sulphate is the Base of the drug and is chosen based on how your body absorbs the drug. Thats called the "salt" such as HCl: hydrocloride salt. Its different from "sulpha drugs" Oxycodone, hydrocodone, hydromorphone and oxymorphone are all HCl bases. If you are in the united states the most you can take a day is 90mg of morphine or its equivalent. for oxymorphone and oxycodone this is 30 mg. For hydromorphone i believe this is 24mg but could be low as 18mg a day. This is the TOTAL you can take, so you can mix and match but never go over the 90mg or its equivalent. The only exception is if you have cancer. Morphine can give you swelling but its not necessarily because its a sulphate base.

But what type have you reacted to?

For instance, I am allergic to sulfa antibiotics, but don't have a problem with any of the others.

It is possible to be allergic to one, but not all. It varies from person to person.

Hello, Tazz! How are you?

Have you ever tried the extended release Morphine?

The FDA classifies it as 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.

Does anyone else have any suggestions?
