In reply to Drs/pharmacists please- anyone know opioid equivi?, posted by kerria on August 8, 2005, at 0:14:56
Hello,
>i just want to find out what the exact equivilant is.
There is no exact equivalent. As you say, they are quite different.
>The Kadian doesn't stop working so suddenly but has the bad effect of sedating so i hate to take it.
Perhaps you could try a different opioid. If your doc won't prescribe OxyContin, Duragesic might be a suitable alternative to morphine.
Kind regards
