http://www.medications.com/effect/view/41123 I've been on the fentanyl patch for almost 3 years. I started on the 25 patch, then went up to the 50. Now I've weaned myself back down to the 25 patch. I was put on it for chronic back pain caused from a car accident. I'm determined to get off this drug, Sat, 02 May 2009 11:29:14 +0000 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/41123?item=19436 please try accupuncture. western medicine is not very good with chronic pain, except as you well know, with chronic drugs. other healing traditions are more effective, less destructive http://www.medications.com/effect/view/41123?item=19436 Tue, 30 Jun 2009 09:43:13 +0000 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/41123?item=21060 I hope you are doing OK! That was pretty clever of you on reducing your dosage with the protective covering. My husband removed his patch 2 days ago, after we reduced him from a 50 to a 25. He did the 25 for about a week. We were worried about the dog find http://www.medications.com/effect/view/41123?item=21060 Fri, 10 Jul 2009 22:20:40 +0000 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/41123?item=21371 I have been on the patch for 8 years currently still @ 75 I too have in the past tryed to get off , for me, its not worth it the withdrawls is terrilble, The patches for me still work however I do change them more often @48 hours.
