"As with any narcotic, use with extreme caution and check before mixing with other prescriptions. Highly addictive for some people. Mother lost her job and ultimately her life as a result of quack doctors and ultimate addiction to this controlled substance. Wrecked my life."

"A torn kidney caused me to be in extreme pain, and I was hospitalized. After two days, I got tired of being injected with Demerol every four hours, so I asked a nurse if I could have pills instead. Out came the Talwin. It gave me relief from the pain, and I laughed a lot. After a day or two of laughing, things got scary. Not health-wise, but instead of laughing, I began to have such horrible nightmares that I was afraid to close my eyes. But either way, I was pain-free. I would recommend that people take Talwin if prescribed, but I would not recommend a torn kidney, prescribed or not. Get well soon."

"No side effects. Takes a little to ease the pain in the right leg and back. Do not eat at the same time you take the pill, it has a bitter taste."

"I have been on this drug Talwin for 6 years for peripheral neuropathy. If I didn’t have this medication to control the flare-ups, I might not be here today. I was so extremely miserable, and this medication helps so much."
