I was on a 50mcg/hour fentanyl patch for over a year till there was an end of year shortage and was forced off it simply due to insufficiency. The prescribing Dr. was shocked I had no withdrawals.
Now I take hydrocodone in a moderate dosage as needed a few times a week.
BTW psa: prescription drugs are allocated to the states on an annual basis. All narcotics have been on a decreased allotment for the last few years. The results are end of year shortages or just plain unavailability.
So if you or your loved ones are reliant on pain meds advise them to stockpile if they can. The last forecast I heard was compounded decreased allotments means the shortage will start in the Fall and run through the rest of the year 2024. (Senator Cassidy is on the congressional committee overseeing these decreasing allotments of meds, he was my pain Dr.’s cadaver partner 1st year med school)
As longs as your doctor can prove that a patient has a legit reason to be prescribed pain meds, meaning a person should have a specific code written on his or script and have tried alternative methods that have been proven to be unsuccessful, those meds will always be available. Although i agree it is getting much harder to obtain a script of oxycodone or norcos.
