Re: Diladid Dosage in Medtronics Pain Pump Question

[Guest guest]

Did you ask to see the study that he was referencing because I find that highly

suspicious. Be sure to remind him at every appointment and call them about it

whenever you can. There is no upper limit to opiates (except NSAID/APAP

combinations, Darvon/Darvocet, and Buprenorphine.

Best of luck and please keep me up to date.
