Re: Morphine vs. Oxy
      08/03/04 07:49 PM

Having used both separately and concurrently (and presently using oxy for break through pain,) I will contribute my personal experience...

It took comparatively high doses of morphine (specifically MSContin at a range of 100-160mgs every 8 hours) to give me adequate pain relief. I also had more of the physical side effects with morphine than I did/do with oxycodone (especially nausea, constipation, sweating and pinpoint pupils.) It was however, by itself and in conjunction with oxycodone, a very effective pain management tool at appropriate doses.

Morphine administered IV drip/PCA pump, however, was an absolutely ABYSMAL pain control mechanism for my post-op pain. I do not know what the dose was, but it was so ineffective that I made the staff remove my IV and requested oral medication instead. This is no exaggeration. I got ZERO pain relief from the slow drip--even though I got great relief from the sustained-release oral formulary of the same drug. A paradox, perhaps?

As far as oxycodone, it has always been a great pain reliever for me. The biggest problem I have with oxy is rapid tolerance development. After continuous administration for a few weeks, the medication loses its effectiveness substantially.

Those are my abbreviated experiences with those two drugs.
