As a recovering addict of opiates, and a person who consistently has ankle/leg pain, what other treatments do you suggest? Everyday I struggle with pain (restless nights, pain at work, and sometimes my leg/ankle will go to "sleep") and OTC medication do not work, but I will not let myself fall back into addiction even with the "cravings" I have. Only when the pain is at its worst do I even consider taking an opiate, but I'm glad I haven't yet.
I do think Endo Pharmacy's formulation on the ER Oxymorphone is nearly 95% tamper proof, but the bioavailability of oxymorphone orally is not enough to subdue the pain. I think if they use that formula with Oxycodone it would be a more effective medicine and more tamper resistant.
