Guest guest Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 i guess it does depend who is prescribing it. However, I remember reading it, either in the insert or the pdr that it is usually taken by people who have a tolerance to narcotics.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2005 Report Share Posted May 6, 2005 Also, if you had problems with the adhesive on the original patches try the generic. They are smaller and they don't itch me at all. You might like them better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 Gretchen, I am now on the patch - did you tolerate, no nauseau or anything? Joyce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 Joyce, The Fetanyl pain patch did not make me nauseous, but it caused my skin allergies to flare up - I started scratching, bad, all over. So my time on the patch was about 2 weeks (I think I lasted all of maybe 6 or 7 patches). After none of my skin creams worked, I knew something was wrong. Once I stopped the patch, the scratching stopped too. Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 The patch is not stopping the pain in my hands. Did it for you? I just started on 25mg what about you. What is anyone doing to control the burning pain, any new meds, please help I'm at wits end. Joyce *** Joyce, I never had pain in my hands. I can't quite remember what mg the patch I used was, I think it was 100, because it was post-op pain. For my burning feet, I use Elavil (Amitriptyline). Neurontin also helps some people. The newest one for pain in Lyrica, maybe ask your doctor about this for your situation. ~ Gretchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
