I've been taking 5mg of oxycodone but to get pain relief I take 3 or 4 ,I'm
percribed 2 at a time. Today my hospice nurse wants to add ms cotin 30mg every
12hrs. and take the oxycodone for breakthrough pain,why not just increase my
oxycodone to 10mg?
U should ask for a non narcotic like Cymbalta or Lyrica that help with pain than have your oxy for the break through pain.. One thing the meds your on are very habit forming and the more u take the more u need..Your body is getting use to the dose and is not working how it should on your dose you take..A long acting pain medication is good so it works in your body longer..The nurse is probably doing this because it does become very addicting after awhile..
