what is ms-cotin will it help wds from vics

[leeisgettingclean]

no its harder to come off of and stronger then vics. It would be using a drug of the same type, only stronger then what you were using. It would not allow you to w/d because you be using the same class of drugs, and prob createing a bigger prob, and in  noway helping the prob. not an option at all!
here is a lil on it that i found by google.....WARNING

MS CONTIN contains morphine sulfate, an opioid agonist and a Schedule II controlled substance, with an abuse liability similar to other opioid analgesics.

Morphine can be abused in a manner similar to other opioid agonists, legal or illicit. This should be considered when prescribing or dispensing MS CONTIN in situations where the physician or pharmacist is concerned about an increased risk of misuse, abuse, or diversion.

MS CONTIN Tablets are a controlled-release oral formulation of morphine sulfate indicated for the management of moderate to severe pain when a continuous, around- the-clock opioid analgesic is needed for an extended period of time.

MS CONTIN Tablets are NOT intended for use as a prn analgesic.

MS CONTIN100 and 200 mg Tablets ARE FOR USE IN OPIOID-TOLERANT PATIENTS ONLY. These tablet strengths may cause fatal respiratory depression when administered to patients not previously exposed to opioids.

MS CONTINTABLETS ARE TO BE SWALLOWED WHOLE AND ARE NOT TO BE BROKEN, CHEWED, DISSOLVED, OR CRUSHED. TAKING BROKEN, CHEWED, DISSOLVED, OR CRUSHED MS CONTIN TABLETS LEADS TO RAPID RELEASE AND ABSORPTION OF A POTENTIALLY FATAL DOSE OF MORPHINE

Using MS Contin to come off hydro is like using vodka to quit drinking beer...morphine/MS contin..is not a highly sought drug orally as it is not the energetic high people get from hydros...it is a doc of those who use drugs iv////virtually a legal heroin but heroin is mixed with other components...heroin is a street drug....like dilaudid...orally it is not a great buzz///iv drug abusers love it tho...but using one narcotic to get off another is usually not a good idea///many condone using sub to get off a narcotic///but it is also a narcotic...in the long run try every avenue u can to stop ur doc without adding another narcotic to ur drug regime

[troubleinohio]

yep ditto to what the others have said...and btw my sister in law just died from an accidental overdose from a doubledose/bad combo of her pain meds (MS Contin and percocet). Please do not try to use this drug!

Here is an actual answer to your quaestion......I have been living on MS Contin 240mg daily for yrs and in my experience if you are having withdrawals from ANY narco like Vicodin, Lortab, Percocet, Oxycontin, MS Contin etc. then Methadone is your answer - however do not take the Methadone for more than a week or it can become addictive too. For me, I can kick my withdrawal symptoms in 1-2 days taking 20-30mg of methadone once in the morning. Methadone is said to be a pain med but I have never had any pain relief benefit, even in high doses. Go to your Dr. I'm sure they will agree that Methadone is your answer.
