Pain
"I have been on various medications for years, some have been Lortab, non-narcotic pain medications, Ms-contin, Oxycontin and fentanyl patches.  I was on 150 micrograms of fentanyl/48 hours before switching to Opana ER.  Initially I was taking 20mg of Opana 2x/day and it was not sufficient for my pain, but I couldn&#039;t handle the side-effects of the fentanyl patches (narcolepsy) so I worked with my doctor to increase my dosage and frequency so that I now take 30mg 2x/day and 20mg 1x/day.  It is expensive but I am finally able to live a near-normal life.  I play with my kids, I don&#039;t miss work, and I even keep the house up (with great help from my better half).  Opana ER has been great for pain relief with almost no side-effects!"
