Hi all. I just got back from my Dr. and he prescribed to me what webmd calls a new morphine sulfate extended release med used for people with moderate to severe chronic pain. He started me at 60mg once daily. I also have percocet 10/650 for breakthrough pain. Has anyone here had any experience with this med? Any feedback would be appreciated!
I'll let everyone know how it works out for me.
Peace and be well, James

o.k. so avinza is out, Kadian is in anyone know about it? Thanks!

I was on Avinza for awhile last year and I thought it was great I would much rather be on it that the generic but with my part D I hit my gap too fast and the Avinza is like $363.00 oop for me to pay so I just stay on the Morphine sulphate er
