Chronic Pain
"I have been on different forms of this since January. I started on the buccal film but after my insurance didn&#039;t want to cover the brand name (Belcuca) I switched to a higher dose sublingual generic. I now take 2mg sublingual 2x/day (nasty taste! But works and dissolves fairly quick this way) for a chronic ovarian pelvic pain disorder. It&#039;s a good medicine for this kind of pain. Sometimes the pain does not go away and I&#039;ll have to either take more or ibuprofen. Problem with this opiate is that it&#039;s one of the strongest and most other opiates won&#039;t overpower it so breakthrough pain meds are most time useless. Regardless it&#039;s a good pain med and doesn&#039;t make me tired or feel out of it."
