Comment:
I was switched from Oxycontin to Xtampza ER and have found the medication to be as effective. I also take oxycodone twice a day between the 2 doses of Xtampza ER. I suffer from peripheral neuropathy in both legs and arms. Xtampza makes life bearable enough to make it to work everyday so I am happy with itl
