Doc put me on 5 mgs ER. Doesn't make me sick to my stomach like other meds but it also doesn't work for me. It's like taking a baby aspirin instead of Demerol. I have several dxs that include chronic and/or severe pain so need to find something that actually works. Hydrocodone, dilaudid injections and tramadol don't work and make me violently ill

I suffered severe broken neck 35 years ago. Have had two cervical reconstructions. Morphine sulfate stopped working after 5 years. 40mg Opana 2x day with 15mg x 2 up to 4x for Brea through works, but wears off completely after 8 hours. While the morphine at 120mgmedications with bad sidecaffecregiment was not as effective, at least it helped a little for the full 12 hours. Pain management doctors have no idea how these drugs actually work as far as true effectiveness and don't listen to patients well. The ratio for opana to morphine is supposed to be 33%, but a little more than 50% seems to be closer to correct for someone with long term opiate therapy. I now take several other medications that are a waste of money and have undesired side effects because my doctor won't give me a simple 20mg middle day dose.

Opana ER has given me my life back. I am able to sleep nights and make it through the days without severe pain

I have been in chronic pain for 10 years. I am 48 and after a 25 year career as a contract specialist with the federal gov, I had to retire with a disability. I have had 2 spinal surgeries due to OA, DDD, spondylosis. Opana ER saved me
