I have chronic pain 24/7, %365.. I am taking oxycodone and want to know what other pain medication can be prescribed with oxycodone to relieve this horrible pain. I need to know what can be prescribed according to Medicaid or Medicare. I am so miserable. I ve tried OTC lidocaine 4% patches, they don t work. What other drug, even if a low dose can help me?
Hello, You can consider higher end analgesics like gabapentin or hydrocodone. In severe cases you can try ketamine sublingual preparation after discussing with your physician. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
