I have been on pain killers for the past 16 years to try to relieve the pain in my lower back and legs. I take Kadian, Actiq and the latest drug on the list is Nucynta. I find that since I started taking the Nucynta I have been very dizzy, I have loss of short term memory and I have been using wrong words in conversations. One other problem that I noticed is that I could be lying down in bed an ... Show Full Comment

I find that since I started taking the Nucynta I have been very dizzy, I have loss of short term memory and I have been using wrong words in conversations. One other problem that I noticed is that I could be lying down in bed and I'll drift into dream land and I can hear myself talking outloud, then I'll wake up with my eyes closed and I keep continue holding a conversation with nobody. I didn't take Nucyenta today and I won't take it again until I see my doctor on Monday. That's my experience

I thought it was just becasue i hadn't taken the next does (to scared) but finally took it and it seemed ok. I felt like I was having a panic attack and now Im affraid to start all over in the morning!!

As a sufferer of chronic pain for the last 10 years I've been on everything with every known side effect and then some. I'm currently seeing how this fares long term with my doctor and so far so GOOD. Yes there are some side effects however everything has them. It numbs my pain and doesn't "fog" me up like other narcotics. Im also on other meds SSRI's and still no issues ... Show Full Comment

As a sufferer of chronic pain for the last 10 years I've been on everything with every known side effect and then some. I'm currently seeing how this fares long term with my doctor and so far so GOOD. Yes there are some side effects however everything has them. It numbs my pain and doesn't "fog" me up like other narcotics. Im also on other meds SSRI's and still no issues worth mentioning. I've read nothing but horror stories of this medication and I just want to voice a positive opinion. It worked better than norco, vicodin or percocet, for me anyway.

I can't believe that this made it out of clinical trials to be honest.

I have been on Percocet 10/325 for 3 years. My doctor gave me this Medication to try. It did a good job on the pain but put my depression on HIGH SPEED. I felt like I wanted to go to the top of a high building and Jump. Also made me feel really odd in the head, like my head was the only part of my body in a pool. Be careful if you take this medication. Good Luck.
