For Chronic Pain "I have been taking Vicodin for near 20 years now due to chronic pain in my lower back and chronic pain & burning in my shoulders from Factory work.I have been on six 7.5 Vicoprofens for a few years now. That amount works fine if I just sit around all day. If I want to take long hikes, Lift or move furniture, do extensive house cleaning then 6 is NOT enough and I was using 7 or 8 a day. Doctor wanted me to try Morphine ER 15MGs..2 a day and try to get down to 3 Vs a day. A month into this trial period and I'm not liking the Morphine ER (and I've tried 300MG Tramadols & Butrans Patches) The morphine just leaves me feeling sleepy, it just takes the edge off and like so many other medicines ,I have FLU like symptoms. If I had 10 mg pills that would work."

For Chronic Pain "Giving me life back. My chronic joint pain is being lessened with its use. I am not pain-free, but more mobile and can exercise daily. I have been able to better enjoy living. I have been on stronger meds but gained significant weight with OxyContin. For me, morphine is great!"

For Pain "I have had excruciating pain for 4 years. I used from fentanyl patch to morphine sulfate CR. The change is dramatic, no third day withdrawals. Have 24 hr coverage, not for 48 hours. Living in the South, the auto's temp rises to 140 in the car and the patch is not meant for dramatic temperature changes."

For Chronic Pain "I have been in acute chronic pain for the last 26 yrs. I was at a dosage that actually gave me pain relief. Morphine Sulphate ER 30 mg gives me about 2 1/2 hrs of relief from my pain. I take it 3x per day if you can get your dr to prescribe a different medication for pain I definitely would."

For Pain "This medicine claims to be 24 hour extended release but it is not. It releases total dose within hour. This is not an effective generic equivalent to Avinza 24 hour ER or Kadian 12 SR or Kadian 24 hour ER. The pain control is not effective or consistent. The side effects are severe and dangerous. I had severe headache daily, liver enzymes elevated, no appetite, severe nausea, caused chest pain and shortness of breath."

For Chronic Pain "I started at two 15 mg, then three 15 mgs, and now four 15mgs along with two 10 mg oxy for breakthrough pain. Each time it has done an adequate job until tolerance sets in. It is 5/2022 and I started on 12/2021. I am waiting for it to reach the blood plasma max which is 1-2 days. I hope to get 3-4 months at this level. Last month it got rough right before my appointment. I am at a new doctor because my old one left to start her own practice. He’s good so far."

For Pain "They say this form of morphine is resistant to being abused. Which basically just means that it makes you feel like complete garbage. Worst headache of my life if it is not broke don’t fix."
