Family Doctor Who Will Prescribe Pain Medication In South Jersey
(Newest replies first)

I live in southern New Jersey. I am currently prescribed roxicoden 30 mg, every 4 hrs. My family doctor has been prescribing them for me for the last 4 years. Due to new laws, she can no longer prescribe them. I'm having a hard time finding someone who will take my insurance. I have NJFamily Care.

Re: Tara (# 20)

I pray that is still the case for you. My wife's Dr just decided they are no longer prescribing and now we are desperately trying to find someone. She has been on these medications for over 20 years now so her dose is high, but has never had an issue with failing a drug panel, random pill counts, or anything but none of that matters. Now we are searching for a doctor knowing the most likely outcome is going to be us becoming criminals in order to save her life. Great job DEA! I hope every single one of you clowns develop a severely painful, long tern, condition and receive zero help thanks to your work.

Please, someone help! This has been excruciating thus far. I am in need of a legit pain management Doc in south jersey. I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis, diabetic neuropathy, carpal tunnel, lupus, ra, & other anti-inflammatory diseases. After the new laws, my Doc can no longer write my scripts. I'm new to the world of pain management. My life is falling apart while I search for an MD only to help me. Can anyone please help?

It's tough all over as far as getting pain pills. Especially oxy and opana. They can cut you off for any reason nowadays. I used to get 30's when there wasn't even anything wrong with me. The reason I was getting prescribed was that I had an MRI and xrays to back up my claims of being hurt. My continued prescriptions were not for pain but to keep me out of wds. This went on for at least 3 years. The fun was over when I was caught drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana and having an unprescribed narcotic in me during an unrelated ER visit. I am now going to a suboxone clinic where my addiction continues.

She has chosen not to continue prescribing pain meds. The new laws give each Dr the choice to do so or not.

That's NOT TRUE ! It is up to the provider . I've been on pain meds for ten yrs and even with the new laws on effect you can still get pain meds from your primary Dr as well as pain management.

Vingo,
I live in ocean county just a stones throw from toms river ( brick twp. ) Sadly since the beginning of the month ( Jan 03,2017 ) It has become even harder to aquire a legit rx for an opiate/opiod containing pain medication.From reports I've heard only providersspecializing in pain medicine may provide a limited amount of these scheduled narcotics ( csn ) but ONLY FOR SHORT TERM. ACUTE PAIN RELIEF. All others are going the way of interventions pain management . The only exception are those with a defined end stage diagnosis. I wish I had better news to report but reality is opiates are being ushered out because of the liability that accompanies its use.

I'm pretty sure Dr. Eddie Santiago had his license revoked in July 2014 for at least 3 years for writing too many/bogus prescriptions.
