[dalek84]

hey guys i have recentley been put on oxycontin and lyrica the oxycontin really seems to help dull the pain im on 80mg a day of oxycontin 40mg in the morning 40mg at nite and 300mg lyrica 100mg 3x a day. i just wondered what you guys are taking

my dose of oxy is zero. i take 2.5mg hydrocodone every 4 hours, 300mg gabapentin every 8 hours, and 50mg tramadol with the hydro. i also discovered that naproxen helps with gabapentin absorption so i take 1 of those with the gaba. i had oxy at first and it was not as effective as hydro for me.

I 'm not on oxy anymore. It didn't exactly do the trick. I'm now on 150mg Lyrica, 100mg of codeine contin 3 times a day, 100mg of Arthotec twice a day and 25mg of Nortripyline at night. I tried Gabapentin but it didn't seem to work for me.

Hi, I take between 100 - 120mg of Oxy a day depending on how things are. Ive tried just about every med and Oxy is the only one that has helped take the edge off, still a stuggle tho!

I got off of Oxycotin very soon after my accident. I was on 36,000 gabapentin for the next 2 years after. Recently Dr. Li switched me to Lyrica. I take 300mg per day and I am responding "pretty good" to it. I have struggles of pain from time to time but that is all I am taking now for it.

Wish you the best of luck.

I recommend following dosage to my patients.
Oxycontin is approximately 1.5–2 times as potent as morphine when administered orally. However, 10–15 mg of Oxycontin produces an analgesic effect similar to 10 mg of morphine.
when administered intramuscular. Therefore, as a parenteral dose, morphine is approximately up to 50% more potent than Oxycontin.
