Hi
I'm new here. My friend uses 25 mcg fentanyl mylan patches and 1 10mg oxy a day for breakthrough.
She likes the buzz of oxy and takes more than the one a day so she runs out before next script. The patch works wonders for her pain but she's a little afraid of getting hooked and worries about the patch in general since she tans,exercise, etc and raises the body temp.

Her current PM won't up the oxy which is what she really wants but she has a chance to go to a new PM doc TODAY and wants to suggest to him to come off the patch and up the oxy as the main pain med. this will work hor her and give her the buzz she wants.

What do you think? Smart move? Do you think it'll work? Kinda giving away the big gun fentanyl for 3pills a day. Btw-she has patches to help with WD and the doc would help too.
Buying more oxy on the street won't work for her so it's RX only as an option.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
 
I think that person is the only one that can answer that cause they only know their pain level and what is most effective on that. Nobody here knows that persons tolerence of pain or how they react to it so my advice would be to just go with what is the method that works the best on the pain.

The only other thing i can say is i knew someone who was on the patch and they had problems with it staying on for the 3 day period. It would come off at night when she would move around or if there was sweating going on it would come off. Just seemed like kind of a bitch sometimes.
 
Since you have legitimate pain, the best thing to do is forget about the buzz and take them as prescribed. It might not sound like the answer you want, but abusing the pain meds is NOT worth it. You might take 10mg of oxy for a buzz now, but soon it'll be 15mg. Then 20mg. Then you're abusing your whole script in a few days so you won't feel sick. It's a slippery slope that you don't want to go down.

Stick to the doses your doc gave you.
