Hydrocodone is Vicodin; Oxycodone is Percocet; Oxycontin is morphine. Got it? Norco is Vicodin. Stop comparing MS Contin with morphine. It's the same drug you i****s. Some are extended release tabs, such as morphine sulphate er (as in "extended release"), and some are not. They all constipate and your body becomes aclimated to all of them such that dosages must be increased to obtain the same amount of pain relief. Go to a pain management doctor, stop doctor shopping, stop lying, stop trying to get high. It's all a dead end and if you don't know that, you're a m***n. Get off of as much pain meds as you can. Only take what you NEED to think straight and function. Don't take a dosage that prevents you from fully functioning. Be tough, be disciplined, be smart, be responsible. By the way, I do have authority to speak on the subject. I have two artificial disks in my neck. I know pain. I sympathize with many, but get disgusted with all the dishonesty and abusing to get high.

I understand your pain as I've been through a similar situation. I know what you mean about family even becoming tired, I'm going to explain it to them next time like you did, I liked that. As far as getting a prescription covered by insurance when its the only one that works and they won't regularly cover it, you can have your doctor fill out what is called pre-authoriztion form. It basically states similar drugs have failed and you specifically need this one, (your doc will know what it is) and have him submit it to insurance. I don't have Medicaid but have gotten many drugs approved this way through my very picky insurance. Hope this can still help you or anyone else out there.
Keep your head up, and keep on fighting for yourself.
The question really is what gets you the highest. For best relief EVERYONE is different. No one has the same chemical makeup but twins so that means medication will work different in each individual. Oxycontin will get you high and alleviate the pain, while MSContin will be effective for the treatment of pain but not the high that Oxy gives. Your on top of the world on these pain meds but duh they are masking the pain. You can re-injure yourself or worse. These medication are blockers and should be monitored closely by a Physician while using. All are guaranteed to cause addiction and a dependency like crack. Good-luck users I'm praying for your livers!!!
Hydrocodone is Hydrocodone, not Vicodin. Hydrocodone/Acetominophen in combination is Vicodin. Norco is another name for this combination.
In the U.S. Hydrocodone is only marketed in combination with Acetominophen, not by itself.
Oxycodone is Oxycodone, not Percocet. Oxycodone is available as a single ingredient, or in combination with Acetominophen. This combination (Oxycodone/Acetominophen) is Percocet.
OxyContin is not Morphine. OxyContin is Purdue Pharma's time-release brand of oral Oxycodone.
Morphine is.. well, Morphine.
MS Contin is a trademark of Purdue Pharma also and is their time-release brand of oral Morphine Sulfate. Got it?
While you may have "authority" to speak on the subject, said "authority" is (clearly) not consistent with factual correctness.

I was takeing oxycodone and switched to ms contin.I prefer the ms contin it relieves my cronick back pain better and the research ive done says the same that people with cronic back pain tend to have better results from morphine due to the resepters they work on.For those out their stateing oxy is so much better and does anyone have any litterature on morphine morphines been around a heck of a lot longer with much more feedback and information then oxy.As far as strength they clame oxy is 1.5x stronger then morphine but as i mentioned it works better for me with less side effects.
Oxycodone and Oxycotin are two different drugs and Oxycodone is alot weaker than MS contin., just saying... the codone comes frome the codiene its mixed with.
Get OFF the Oxy., I went cold turkey, and after 8 months of extreme pain, was put on MS contin, much better and not as addictive, helps abit with pain, but you do not have the "need" to keep taking it as you do oxy's.
u gotta long haul the new pain will some what help u but from my experience get lolapin or adavans to deal with the shacks u will have from the methadomes if ur going to japan itll last 7 to 14 days for detox but ur on 82 i would say 5 to 7 days u be straight
Try Pizer patient assistance free meds google it I think they took over the company that made Oxycontin. Good luck
looks like he cant spell at all.....Ok, you have 3 types of Oxycontin derivatives. extended release Oxycontin comes in flavors from 5 to 90 mg it lasts about 12 hours. next you have IR instant release. flavor are usually 15 to 30 mg they hit w/in 10-15 minutes and last for about 2 hours. Finally, you have Oxycontin w/ APAP (apap is short hand for acetaminophen) always 5 to 10 mg of oxy w/ 325 to 500 mg of APAP. hits in about 30 minutes, duration is up to 8 hours (according to label) I hope this clears up some misconceptions.
Well, I guess YOU are retarded. I too have taken both MS Contin, and OxyContin, and you are partially correct. OxyContin is stronger, but not WAY stronger.
What people aren't mentioning are the side effects of Both MS and Oxy. I get a Sun allergy from both of them, and have to be careful aboutg too much direct, hot sunlight.
I agree about Methadone putting you to sleep. True. And it can cause irregular heart beat, which happened to me.

I was on oxycontin 120 mil 7 years ago because I broke my back , then I was on 220 microgram fentanyl patches with the oxycontin for breakthrough pain , now they don't make the 120 mil oxys which sucks ass , now the doc wants to give me ms contin , I told him that morphine don't work for me , it never did , even intravenously morphine never worked for me , what works for me is the 30 mil quick release oxycodone and 80 mil oxycontin , I'm totally disabled with 5 back surgeries under my belt , fused from my pelvis to l-2,charite artificial discs at l-4,l-5,l-5s1 , 2-9inch rods and 8 screws , stage 2 neurostimulator , when you have back pain , to tell you the truth nothing really works !!!

you are retarted...you have no idea what you are talking about..you cant even spell oxycontin right. Do you know what it is? Have you ever taken it...please dont talk about things you know nothing about. Oxycontin is way stronger on a mil per mil level.
BS!,MS Contin is stronger per mg.
Oxycotin and oxycodone are two different animals... Oxycodone is the same as percocet wheras Oxcotin is much closer to the chemical makeup of Dilaudid making it stronger then Morphine or MS cotin by ten times the strength Oxycodone is not however stronger then ms cotin although it relatively close a good way of thinking about this is you stated that oxycotin comes in 160 mg tablets whereas oxycodone only comes up to 15 mg tablets before they decide to put you on MS cotin the next higher level.. I am not a drug addict just happen to work in an emergency room
