ok
oxycodone is stronger its like 5mg of oxycodone is = to 7.5 of
hydrocodone they have the about the same effects. but i would say if you have a stronge stomuck oxycodone would be better but if you are a light weight person and a weak stomuck hydrocodone will be better. I have been a pain management pateint since i was 14. I was perscribed
percocet 5/325 which is oxycodone. Befor i could see a doctor after i was injured my grandmother gave me loratab 5s and vicoden 5s to help me those are hydrocodone. They worked but they had lots of draw backs compared to oxycodone. They took the edge off for atlest 2hrs and you can only take them every 4-6 hrs. the percocet was much better i would feel comfortable for atlest 2 hrs and the edge off for 2hrs after that. It wasnt long befor it was not working as well as it was. a year later i found myself on percocet 10. then i told my doctor that im taking 1 after the other because im always in pain and he realized i was misdiagnoised. I had Chornic pain. So i started a 24hour pill called
avinza. started with 30mg and in 3 months needed 160mg but it didnt help. it was determind that my liver was absorbing the
morphine stoping it from entering the blood stream. So the only next steps were
Duragesic fentanyl patchs or
Oxycontin. My doctor said the patches were more effective and i would need break threw pills less often. he was right. at this point i had been on pain meds for 2 years not i stayed on the patch for 2 more years i went from 25micro gram patch to a 50micro gram patch in those 2 years. I have to say the patch was the best and constant pain releif with no pain. But you have to shave your chest where u put it on and by now i was getting hairy and it became painful to take the patches off so i began oxycontin last november. The problem i found with the oxycontin is it does not releve pain for 12hrs your lucky to get 6-8. Instead of 2 a day i take 3. In this way i am getting 24 hr pain releif but the patch is still the best. It to had its drawbacks. It would last 2 days and your 3rd day you would need short acting medication to make up for the short fall of the patch. Because of this my doctor gave me enough patchs so i can change them every2 days instead of every 3. Because he said taking alot of short acting pain meds in a short time will make you aquire a mental addiction. which is worse then just physical addiction.
