Percocet7.5 And Oxycontin 15mg
UpdatedI have been taking 2 7.5 percent every 4 he's a 1 oxy 15 mg for over a year now and its gotten to where its only taking the edge off for maybe an hour. I have crohns disease with multiple surgeries I have tried the fentanly patch and they made me sick I need some suggestions on what I need to ask my doc for next? We have a good relationship but I just don't know where to go next it. Seems the percocet is what's not working anymore is that from taking it for so long?please I don't know I need suggestions! Thanks

I meant 2 7.5 every four hours and 1 15mg oxycontin every 6 hours for breakthrough pain
I too have Crohns Disease. I have run the gamete of pain meds. I am now taking methadone, and have been for about 3 years. I can say that this has been the best medication to mask the pain,and not put me to sleep. it is a long acting drug. i take it 3 times per day.
good luck,
I have just started taking methadone but seems it is not near affective as my other meds I wake up n horrible pain and it takes the edge off but the pain is still unbearable! I don't know if getting off the percocet and just having the oxy dose upped is what I need! I need another surgery but told its too risky! Idk what to do anymore but its so hard raising a child when I can hardly get out of bed!
If you don't mind me asking what dose of methadone are you taking and how of often and what form is it? Pill or liquid? Thanks for the feed back
10mg tab every 6 hours
Yes, your body will eventually get used to any medication that you've been taking in the same dosage, for a long period of time. It's called tolerance and it happens to everyone, though there is no specific time frame for it.
There are larger doses of Oxycodone available that you could try, which may help you more. The time released formulation is called Oxycontin. Have you ever discussed using it with your doctor?

There is also another step up of the Percocet that you can consider, it contains 10mgs of the Oxycodone.

I hard that perc are part of the opana problem and that they are quit hard to find. Ask for oxycodone 30 and ask for morphine pops which come in a verity of strengths. Those work really well and I have found that I don't really get high just relief. Ask your dr. Can't hurt.
I live on long island new york and my doc currently passed...i was on 2 80mg oxycontins and 2 30mg oxycodones and cant find a doc who will give it to me again...i have chrons disease and in severe pain...methadone in high doses helped with 10mg Percocet but the methadone kills your bones....any suggestions for docs please
Re: Jeremy (# 1)
If you are made to stop methadone, from what I hear the withdrawal is a nightmare and horrible. It is very common to build up a tolerance to any of these meds...and there are some people who seem to metabolize these meds and they need higher doses. If you are asking for specific meds the doctors anymore flag you as a drug abuser and seeker and many believing they had a good relationship with their doctor found out it wasn't... and get dumped, I suggest you tell your doctor that what you are taking is not working and then let him make the total decision on what changes he wants to make based on his expertise.
