Re: Started MS-Contin today

Just my 2 cents- as I am sure many people at this site know, you should never split a timed-release med. Remember-that dose is designed to be released gradually over a 12 hour period and you DONT want to take all that medicine at once I took 10 mg oxycontins after a horrible fracture of my femur in a car accident. They were a godsend. Anyway, my point is, titrate the dose with your doc and don't break oxycontins up in a well-intentioned but potentially dangerous attempt to "cut back." I, too, am so happy you are getting the relief you need for your pain.
