Pain
"Nucynta has been working great to control my pain and back pain. I have Crohn&#039;s disease and arthritis in my lower back. I took a combination of Vicodin and Percocet in the past with great results as well, but after 4 yrs I built a tolerance. I was skeptical at first since I read that Nucynta was a type of tramadol, which it is kind of, it&#039;s a mu opioid. Takes longer than Percocets to provide relief, no nausea, even on an empty stomach. Had some bizarre dreams the first few nights. Big downside is the price even with insurance it is costly. I am just happy to be pain free, no head rush like percocets, able to take them at work too, unlike other narcotics I have been prescribed. I am taking 100mg ER every 12 hrs."
