Guest guest Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Lyndi, Does the Opana ER work and how does it feel from what the Methadone felt for you? If there is another medicine that gives the same relief that Methadone does then I'm all for it. It's been my experience that all medication with ER ( extended relief) hasn't done me any good. Thanks, >Lyndi wrote: , Doctors all over the US are taking their patients off methadone and putting them on something else. My pain doctor switched me to Opana ER last Friday. Apparently, the powers that be (DEA, FBI etc) have been letting the doctors know that they " shouldn't " be prescribing Methadone for so many of their patients.

So far, so good. It seems to hold up fairly well for the time period it's supposed to. I guess the jury is still out, but I do know it is working better than back when I took 12 hour Avinza. With any of these meds, I usually need to take 600 mg. of Ibuprofen at least twice a day. The Ibuprofen works better for me as a breakthrough medication than Oxycodone does.
