In reply to oxycontin converts to how much avinza?, posted by kerria on September 14, 2009, at 8:36:30

> Anyone know what's the right conversion dose?
> i was taking 80mg of oxycontin three x a day and breakthrough 5-10 mg oxycodone.
>
> the conversion chart says 270mg(25% for cross tolerence - whatever that is) oxycodone to morphine.
> so would that be three 60mg and one 90mg avinza(270)?

> a pharmacy said that it was about equal.
> would that be two 90mg and one 60mg avinza (240mg)?

> yesterday i took 100mg kadian at 6am but was in terrible pain and took one 90mg and one 60mg avinza with that at 9:30am and felt better but not all pain gone. pain became worse towards 6pm - kadian lasts only 12 hrs but it was a mistake maybe , when i took another 100mg kadian- felt terrible - it was too much or maybe just bad medicine bc expired.

> what should i take? anyone know?
> it's so hard for me to make decisions and not to worry bc of making mistakes so much that seem right and afraid of medicine:(

> i have to take it very soon.
