So I have small amount of 5mg IR oxycodone tablets to take at only at night to help me fall sleep with back pain mostly caused by muscle spasms. I'm wondering how frequently I can take these without developing a significant tolerance or dependency. Right now I'm limiting myself to 10 mg max every other night, but I'm worried I'm starting to become physically dependent after only a few nights of use. When I took about 9mg the other night, I didn't have the nausea that I usually experience and It felt like it wore off pretty quickly even though I staggered my doses. I've felt mildly energy zapped/mildly anxious during the day, but I'm also under stress right now, so It's possible that I'm just psyching myself out.
I was hoping to get something like hydrocodone or codeine which I thought was better for sleep, but the oxycodone does help. I used to take tramadol daily but I haven't touched the stuff in almost three weeks. I want to avoid a drug dependency, but I also seriously need some relief so I can fall asleep at least some nights.
BTW I don't really enjoy the Oxycodone high, but I do "crave" something at night, but that might be a psychological dependence I developed from all the other different meds I used to take every night for sleep
