My Dr prescribed Hysingla er 20mg, 1 daily with hydrocodone 7.5/325 for breakthrough pain. The Hysingla worked great and I seldom had to take extra hydrocodone. The only problem is the price, over $400 for 30, 20mg pills. Why so expensive? I will go back to Norco.

This medication only has any kind of pain relief 15 hours after you have taken it and that moderate relief only lasts 6 hours. It should not be rated as a 24 hour solution for pain. I would rather just take 3 10 mg norco"s a day that would give good predictable relief.

I started at 20 mg and slowly moved up to 100 mg. I now rarely have to take anything else for breakthrough pain. It has made made a big difference in pain control. The important thing is for your doctor to get you up to your effective dose and to give you enough medicine for breakthrough pain on your way up in dosage.

Very disappointed although its nice not having to take morph 3 times a day.

Lower dosages did not work at all. Higher doses took 2-3 hours before I could feel any pain relief, which was barely noticeable, and of which began to wear off after the 4th hour. So, a 24-hour pain medication, for me, was not any better than a med I would have to take 4-6 times a day. It also caused more pain in areas where I previously had no pain!
