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.

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢

  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP

  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
