Hi

I was wondering what people's experience are of these patches

I currently take morphine slow release and get terrible constipation.

Does this improve on this patch.

Are you not to dizzy with it?

FYI, The maker of these analygesics has a new model. It is about the size of

a credit card and is worn against the skin. However, it has a recessed button

that alows the wearer to control the dosage of the medicine by pushing the

button. and has a " letter of approval " for this device but I

don't think that means full approval yet. Hopefully it is a better method and

those who use " the patch " might benefit.

Best wishes, Poncho - GA

Hello,

I was given the Duragesic Patch during one of my hospital stays where

I had hospitalists caring for me instead of my own doctor. It was

horrendous, although I really don't remember much. I became extremely

psychotic and sometimes combative. I was told I did some very abnormal

activities: wandering the halls, pulling out my IV, and even more

embarrassing activities regarding clothing (or lack thereof).

Evidently, I am very sensitive to that medicine via patch. I've not

heard of others here who reacted like that, but I have a friend who

did that because of another medicine. We need to be careful what we

let in our bodies...but then again...we won't know until we try it.

Hope that helps...and doesn't freak you out!?!?!?

I did the same thing on the patch, very psychotic, pulled everything,

drains, iv, punched a nurse. I ended up in a coma from all the damage I

did. Turns out I was allergic to morphine. They switched it to Fentanyl

and delaudid(sp). It was a little too late. Almost killed me, I went

septic in the coma and was near death for 22 days.
