Chronic Pain
"My PM doc ran me through the gamut of long acting pain killers before settling on OxyContin.  When I started seeing this PM doc I had been taking 15 mg oxycodone (IR)  6 times a day and he told me we needed to get me on a long acting medicine. We tried Exalgo, Opana, Avinza, Nucynta, and Exalgo again. They all seemed to provide adequate pain relief, just not for the amount of time they claim to.  Back to old faithful.  OxyContin /oxycodone hasn&#039;t failed. me yet."
