Hi guys,

Don't post much, am pretty private but have been a member for some time. 

I recently bought some ER Nucynta from an approved vendor here (international) and after researching more (what I should have done before placing the order) it seems this med is formulated to try and break the 'high' that comes from traditional pain killers and just go for the pain relief.  When I saw that it was listed I just jumped at it as my old pain dr had recommended it when it first came out before this war on drugs but I opted not to use it and just stick with my tramadol (which I now have to get from said vendor also) 

I need something for breakthrough pain and don't anticipate that this will work for that. I have RA and RA related OA which has become quite severe. The strongest med I can get thus far is co-codomol. I'm always scared when trying a new med especially from other countries but b/c I take tramadol wonder if I should make sure I do not take them on the same day as I have read that nucynta has similiar SNRI properties. And b/c it's ER (once again I didn't know when I ordered, if so would have passed) how will I even know if it's working? The tramadol I take is for my depression (if you haven't read the studies they can be found online) so for me I would not be able to take both. How they made it a S2 is beyond me as it seems so innocuous from what I've read. I could be wrong though so am looking for some insight. 

Thanks, and cheers.

Most people I know who are scripted Tramadol use Hydrocodone for breakthrough. I’m certainly not an expert, and this is purely anecdotal. I would find a site where you can check for interactions to Tramadol. This is one I have used. It does state that Tramadol and Nucynta have a major interaction.

Nucynta is like a super Tramadol. I was increased  to Nucynta from 400mg Tramadol (recc maximum amt daily) and it didn’t give me any pain relief...at all. Tramadol is weird stuff because of the SSRI/SNRI effects and it’s a weak opioid.  The serotonin effect acts as a mood elevator. Use Duck Duck Go search engine  vs. google for privacy and search Oregon MME conversion chart ( It’s very user friendly) or just “Morphine Conversion Chart “ to see the difference between Tramadol,Nucynta,Codeine etc.

Nucynta is one of those extremely expensive newer synthetic drugs that disrupt the brains perception of pain ( like gabapentine, topomax, cymbalta and lyrica rather than pure morphine based pain meds. @Gracie5 is absolutely correct that breakthrough pain is best managed by hydrocodeine or a pure opioid agonist. Your depression may be from pain but I’ve not heard it being rx. strictly for depression.

I don’t know if this helps but my Nucynta was not ER and I think it was 50mg bid (x2 a day) or every 12 hrs. Really crap...to put it bluntly !!!

 
Absolutely use GoDuckGo (that’s what I used too). 😊 @Nitetrainis much more knowledgeable than I. I never could use Tramadol, nor Nucynta because my doctor said it was essentially the same drug, only Nucynta was stronger, and if I couldn’t tolerate one, I couldn’t tolerate the other. Again, just like Nitetrain explained well. Just be careful @savingtessthat you don’t use anything too strong, which is why I recommended Hydrocodone. One thing I’ve had a lot of experience with is having my pain meds increased too much, too quickly, and building a very high tolerance. Keep your doses as small as possible.

 
Thank you guys. I wish I had gotten the IR but my vendor didn't carry it yet - says he believes he will be soon. 

As for cutting through acute pain though - which I have a lot of because of my RA/OA since I was young, has anyone crushed them to get a quicker effect? Because of how new this med is in comparison with other drugs I haven't heard much about this at all and am very wary of trying. 

Thanks again for your comments; I haven't tried them yet but when I do I will repost will update. 

Tess.

  1. CalFresh @ CalFresh: Thanks everyone. My family and I are safe ATM. @mellowella thank you, but they cleaned me out. the shelves are empty but I'm hoping to call in some favors to restock ASAP. @xenxra I will reach out to set up a secure comms channel for us. Thanks again all. Yesterday was tough, but the support I've received from those I can share is with has been a Godsend.
  2. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Mad love to you and your family @CalFresh
  3. xenxra @ xenxra: @CalFresh if you are able to DM me (in a secure manner) the transactions associated with your btc theft, i can look into that part for you at least. i;m still 99% certain if the fbi didn't discard my leads they could have gotten some of my coins back and considering you had your coins stolen within the us, you have a much better chance of recovery than me. unless they went through mixers i could probably trace them myself.
  4. O @ Outsider9173: @CalFresh Haven't been here long but I want to wish you a fast recovery
  5. crimp @ crimp: neck spine surgery 8 ribs broke and scalp split onen about 6 inches

  7. CnC5 @ CnC5: @CalFresh if theres anything i can do brother lmk!
  8. M @ Mokachin0: @CalFresh email me I may be able to assist
  9. mellowella @ mellowella: I will always remember what you did for me the very first time I donated. I have been waiting to pay that kindness forward.
  10. mellowella @ mellowella: @CalFresh are you and your family safe? You’ve helped me in a pinch and were more than generous, and I’m sure you’ve helped others. How can we help you? Does it help at all if we completely buy out what’s left? Maybe that gives time and funds to restock and rebuild? I don’t want to break any rules here, but please let us know if we can do anything. All on your time of course.
  11. CalFresh @ CalFresh: thanks guys. I'm pulling together what I have left and leaning on the kindness of folks who support me to restock my shelves so that I can keep the lights on. Having my savings drained and my security vanish in an instant is paralyzing and the repercussions will only be realized in the coming days and weeks. for now I'm just trying to stay focused on the immediate priorities for ensuring this doesn't. cause cataclysmic failure to the life I've built for my children and I.
  12. H @ hotdog45: @CalFresh hey man if I can do anything, anything at all to help you get back on your feet let me know. Truly my heart goes out to you. I sent you an email also

  16. CalFresh @ CalFresh: everyone here is safe. I was here alone.
  17. CalFresh @ CalFresh: friends, about a few hours ago my home was invaded by two punk thugs with guns. They stole everything I had in my home: cash, electronics, and mags, and forced me to transfer $20K in Bitcoin. it is a huge loss and I'm still reeling trying to figure out what i.can do to recover. For now I'm just trying to secure what little I have left so they can't take anything else. I'm telling you guys cause theres not many others I can tell. please bare w/ me, it'll take a few days to get back up and running
  18. CnC5 @ CnC5: @xenxra awesome
  19. giantsquids @ giantsquids: don't jinx it now haha
  20. xenxra @ xenxra: bitcoin is probably going to $120k in the next few weeks, screenshot this.
