Opana 20 With Vicodin 7 5 For Breakthrough Pain
Updated
Chick Says:
I take 1 Opana 20 mg every 12 hours, plus 1-2 tabs of Vicodin 7.5 for breakthrough pain. Does anyone think that's being over medicated?

Hello, Chick! How are you?
No, that is a typical dosing regimen for people with chronic pain. It should be fine, as long as your doctor approves.
The FDA classifies this medication 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.
Is there anything else I can help with?
