ok ok so the new opana are out and its pretty obvious that they dont work. i have even seen proff that im not digesting these little plastic pills. i go to pain management in 2 days and report how the morphene 60mg replacement is working for me (it did not, my only savior was the 5mg ir opana prescribed for breakthru) does anyone know what we can use as an effective replacement? can this really be all we have to choose from? where is the pain relief medication? what the hell is going on? i was told they were change (truthfully) because people were selling them to addicts and making a ton of money and the govt wasnt getting their share (taxes) so they stepped in and put a stop to it. if you think that our govt gives one s*** about anyone being addicted to drugs or dieing from overdose, think again. they DO NOT GIVE A S***. ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IT MONEY! now, the word is.. that addicts are using herion (very readily available) as a good replacement for the pills. hmm...so who is left out in the cold. cronic pain suffers! if i know about this then sure as s*** the govt does too. so, i want to know dammit! how the hell can i get some sleep and get up and go to my job everyday???????

Sadly, I am not really surprised, since the same thing happened, when Oxycontin was reformulated to help prevent abuse. There were many posts saying that it didn't work as well as the original formulation and/or that it caused odd side effects and the same is happening with the changes to Opana.

As to what may work better for you, have you ever tried the Fentanyl patch? It is a very potent narcotic skin patch that lasts for 3 days.
