Thanks,

it should work just as well for oxy. Mix caps (3) with

pureed baby food- apricot and peach seem best for

doses w/ syringes. Voila- 3.75 x 4 = 15mg. More than one

way to skin a cat. Thanks so much.

Hi Wanda,

Can the pills dissolve in water? That is another

method to taper down.

For example dissolve 5mg in a cup of water then

drink 4/5ths of the cup which reduces the dose to

4mg. This may be a better idea then what the doc

told you.

and now at 9mg and ok. Am also on oxycodone 7.5mg

4x day. Now doc has reduced Oxy to 5mg 4x, so I am

forced into a two drug taper and feeling awful.

Also on 6mg per day zanaflex. Have multiple

myopathies and flunked most recent leg (both) EMG.

Had planned originally to taper one at a time:

Hi Jim- trap link is www.thetrap.org.uk.

I tried to link to the vid, but not that comp. savy. Site is wonderful. Chock full of info and great people.

Found a couple of YT vids, but think the trap is best.

Made up my first oxy/peach titration today. Went well and will start am Sun.
