Trying something new today for pain relief. I have been using opioids for 8 years or better. For a while now I have been taking oxytocin 10 mg 3 times a day, and it barely makes me feel any relief. I wanted a change, but not a higher dosage. I spoke with my pain management LPN yesterday and she prescribed a transdermal patch...buprenorphine. It's a morphine derivative that lasts for a week...a box of 4 will last me a month.
I'll let you know how I make out.
