What else can I help you with?
Do you get a buzz or get high from the Fentanyl patch like you do when you take Oxycontin?
Not after the first couple of weeks when you get used to the dose. Unlike OxyContin, patch doses are much more steady, and there's no steep dropoff in dosage level like there is with OxyContin as the drug wears off. Essentially, you feel pretty normal, just no pain.
Does methadone block Oxycontin?
Yes, depending on how high of a methadone dose you are on. Methadone will clog your opioid receptors and make it hard for any other opiate to act in your brain. Usually, any dose higher than 40mg's will block other opiates.
How long do i have to wait to use a Fentanyl 100 mcg patch after taking a oxy 80 mg?
Everyone's different, but in general it takes several hours (especially if you're already opiate tolerant by using OxyContin) for Fentanyl to achieve a dosage equivalent to what you're taking. You want to adjust your patch attachment time so that when your OxyContin dose is going down, the patch dose is ramping up. Your doctor should have already told you this; keep in mind that initial patch doses are skewed toward the low end of the dosage chart for safety, so your initial dose might not cut it. Make sure you've got enough breakthrough meds available until you can get your patch dose correct.

Is 45 Mg of Oxycontin daily a high dose?
A daily dose of 45 mg of OxyContin can be considered a moderate to high dose, depending on individual factors such as a person's previous opioid use, tolerance, and overall health. For people who have not previously taken opioids, this dose may pose a risk of overdose and significant side effects. However, for those who have developed a tolerance due to chronic pain management, it may be within a typical range. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding opioid use.
Can you smoke with the patch?
It is generally not recommended to smoke while using a nicotine patch, as this can lead to an excessive intake of nicotine and increase the risk of side effects. The patch is designed to help you quit smoking by providing a steady dose of nicotine without the harmful effects of smoking. Using both simultaneously can defeat the purpose of the patch and may complicate your withdrawal process. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
Can oxycodone be used for restless legs syndrom?
Yes, Oxycontin can be used to treat restless legs syndrome. However, if you have sleep apnea, your doctor will probably not let you take it for an extended period of time. I have found that I can take Oxycontin for a week and not take Mirapex. This helps me restart the Mirapex at a lower dose after the week off of it. It helps keep the obsessive compulsive side effects at bay by staying on a lower dose.

What is the typical dose of OxyContin for a 10lb cat?
If available I would take the cat to an emergency vet or apply an ice pack depending on the injury/condition.
Is oxycontin op 60mg stronger than oxycontin op 30mg?
They are twice "as strong" the dosage a 30mg = 0.03grams of Oxycodon; 60mg = 0.06grams. Check the related link for safety information. Doubling the dose does not have a linear effect ( that means it is not twice as good or effective ). It will have a greater impact on the pain but also an increased potential for side effects and toxicity.
What dose of codeine is equal to 2 mg of morphine?
