"Talwin was first given to me when I had wrist surgery to reattach tendons and ligaments torn from the bone during a car accident. Plus, I have fibromyalgia and psoriatic arthritis. And I'm allergic to all the morphine, codeine types. My wrist surgeon coupled Talwin NX with Phenergan, and it worked like a charm. Now, I use that very combination for psoriatic arthritis flares. It's wonderful!"

"Great medicine for controlling pain/chronic pain. Non-addictive. The nclenal stands for Nicene, which is arcane. An opioid and drug overdose reversal medication. It works by blocking opioids and other addictive medications from building up in cells/body. As Talwin contains small amounts of opioid, the amazing thing about this medication is while using it for chronic pain, it took away all mental urges or desires to think about drinking alcohol, which I had stopped years before but had those mental desires or thoughts to drink. Cravings, so to say. It may have the same long-term result for addicts who crave other drugs... amazing! An important fact that is not a warning from the drug company is it blocks relax meds before procedures such as colonoscopy, relax medication. Scary."

"Complete joke! I’ve had 9 different back surgeries, and I was in horrific pain the entire time. I thought very seriously about suicide to relieve the unbearable pain. I finally retained an attorney and sued the pain management doctor. The judge said his treatment amounted to sadistic torture. I won my case and was able to hire a compassionate doctor. Talwin made me feel severely anxious and sick the entire time that I took it. I would never take it again."

"I was on this for most of the '80s and '90s. No need to up dosage, I would give anything to get them again. Last year, I weaned off morphine because it was too low of a dose: 60 mgs per day! I moved, and back home I got up to 120 mgs of methadone per day. Plus, pain docs are very scarce here, the few there are either won't take new patients and/or my insurance. So, to answer the question: Talwin NX works really well on pain. It can cause anxiety in some people."

"I had a head-on collision with my car and another vehicle in 1996. My neck, shoulder, and back were affected. Initially put on Loritab, but I was nauseated and also worried about becoming dependent. I then tried the injections in my back and did pain management. My job was physically demanding, and it was difficult to just walk. My doctor prescribed me Talwin NX about 10 years ago. Initially, my pharmacist told me that it was an older pain medication and that I needed my doctor to change me over to Loritab or something else. I told the pharmacist my concerns about opioids, and he has started keeping the Talwin Nx to fill my prescriptions. I only take them when I need to be very active. Thirty pills usually last me 45-60 days, as the most I have taken in a day is 1 pill. I have gone without taking any for over a week. I have been injured multiple times since that car wreck but will only take Talwin for my pain."

"Used Talwin NX for Carpal Tunnel. Worst feeling ever! I felt drunk, carsick, had horrible dreams - it did not help with pain relief. I would not take it again!"
