User Reviews for morphine oral

When I was prescribed Morphine the side effects were unbearable, although I did get some pain relief.I experienced excessive mood changes such as rage and it felt as though I was crawling out of my skin,(a hallucination). My pain specialist doctor told me even though the side effects I experienced were rare, he suggested I try Methadone HCL to treat my severe pain. I take Methadone and another pain med for break thru, along with a muscle relaxer and this has helped me for about ten years now. I don't have terrible side effects as I had with morphine and My "MG" dosage hasn't increased even though I've been on it for an extended period of time. Read More Read Less

does anacids effect the pain control of this med

Found med not to have long acting pain relief

Using Morphine to releave back and leg pain due to spinal Stenosis. Finding that I need more of this medicatrion to remain comfortable. Concered with amount that is a danger to my breathing.

OA, DDD, Carpel Tunnel both wrists, 7 deteriorated disk with 3 pressing on nerves in the spine from herniation. Numbness in both hands and both legs from the hip down, It started with numbness in the thigh region 12 years ago. I have used Morphine for pain management for two and a half years. Starting with 15mg SA's two times a day. I am now at 3 30 SA's a day with 10mg Oxycodone for break-thru pain. Gabapentin 800mg 4 times a day helps with stiffness and joint movement. And Methocarbamol 500MG for muscle pain. Morphine works great with on my back and joint pain. I have had many talks with my Primary and Pain Management Doctors about the addiction properties of Morphine and we have come to the conclution that I will become addicted, if I am not already, and should expect to be on the drug for the foreseeable future. It gets my vote for pain management. Read More Read Less

Prescribed to help w/fluid on lungs and phantom pain from leg amputation. Ran out of pills and had severe episode of body shaking the night prior to suffering a heart attack and passing on. Had been off the drug for three or four days and could not obtain an interim supply.

I just started this a couple months ago because I have rheumatoid arthritis,degenerative disc disease,pinched nerve and just found out I have fibromyalgia and I take a 30mg extended release tablet every 12 hours.The thing is it doesn't last but about 9hrs for me so I take 10mg lortab for break thru pain.When I go for my appt next week I'm going to ask her to jump me to the next strength of morphine then I think I'll be fine.I like the morphine because it helps,it doesn't make me groggy,I don't itch and it doesn't hurt my stomach.The morphine and lortab has a tendency to cause constipation but the right diet can help that.Read More Read Less

I have a muscle disease called Inclusion Body Myositis (Inflamation of all of the muscles in my body) The MS Contin I take is the 60mg tablet which helps with the pain, but I also have to take percocet with it for breakthru pain. Since this medicine is made to last over a long period of time, it is dissapointing that it requires an additional medication to make it work for the entire time that it is supposed to work.

this medication can be helpful but be very careful. Don't think that addiction can't happen to you. If the mental addiction doesn't get you the physical addiction will. The body does get used to the med and eventually it will need it. Some of the physical addiction signs that I noticed was feeling like I was coming down with the flu. It is the best med for pain I have taken with the fewest side effects. It's worth a try and remember to take it even if you feel ok cause the pain will be harder to get control of again.(use as your doctor prescribes)Good luck with in your WAR with pain.

i suffer from extrem pain do to a blood disorder and blood clots.my doctors put me on morphine it work for a while,but my pain was to server.iwas on 30mgs of morphine,but i was taking to much cause of the pain,iam also on fentanly 75mgs.i take two patches and morphine

I was given morphine tablets (MS Contin 60mg tabs 3xday) after several years of treatments with other pain meds (Oxycontin, Fentanyl patches & methadone). It keeps the pain at a tolerable level & I can also take OxyIR for breakthrough pain when needed. The only thing I don't like is the constipation, but it seems to cause less constipation than the patches & the methadone did. 80mg Oxycontin worked better, but my doctor will not prescribe it anymore because too many people were abusing it.

Its really hard to rate this drug my pain is so sever im on fentynal. but ths drug does help on a mild pain level condition
