[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 429631, member: 1991"] Janet, I used to take MS Contin. I now take a different form of the same sort of stuff, a once a day dose. Keep the dose as low as you can, I always aim to not eliminate all the pain. Just get it to the point where I can tolerate it. After being on it since difficult child 3 was very young, just this year (at last) I have cut my dose to less than half. I have tried before and was not successful. I figure that now, may pain has at least eased back enough to let me do this. Opiates do rapidly seem to lose effectiveness on your starting dose. Over the years my dose had gone up to more than twice my original dose. I'm now on less than my original dose. Maybe once you get your tooth pain under control, you can cut your dose back or out.
