Ok I'm not sure if this is in the right area sry if it isn't still kinda new to knowing where everything gets posted
Ok here's my question why don't all pain patients get perscribe the same pain meds like I know some are stronger then the other like if ur pain is really bad u mjght get like methodone and if it's not as bad maybe Hydrocodone but I'm talking like u have chronic pain but someone who has the same problem gets a different medicine example say 4 ppl have chronic ankle pain same level of pain same reason but one gets oxycodone one gets oxycotin one gets Vicodin on gets Percocets one gets Hydrocodone and on gets methodone like why do they give so many different opioids for the same problem with the same level of pain some of those meds are the same thing but why give one Vicodin and one Hydrocodone what's the difference and why give one oxy and one methodone like it doesn't make sence to me those are two completely different meds so to sum up my question again why do doctors perscribe different medicine for the same problem
Also a side question why are there multiple names for the same drug? Like Vicodin Hydrocodone norco zydone lortab lorcet hycet maxidone stagesic verdrocet xodol zamicet and Zolvit like all of these meds are all the same but have different names and are perscribe to different ppl with the same problem
If someone could make sence of this for me pls that would be greatly appreciated because honestly it makes no sence in my mind maybe I'm wrong and they are all different or there is a huge difference or they arnt perscribe doe certain things if I am my bad pls correct me
Thanks once again I appreciate it ?
