If your oral meds stopped working consider buprenorphine patch which delivers 24/7 pain relief. I was morphine long acting pills which were difficult to get due to mail order pharmacy hoops. The patch is simpler to use and works well. I went from MS 20mg tabs LA to buprenorphine patch 15mcg for one week. That dose was ineffective and we went to 20mcg patch is I’ve been on it for 3 years and love it. Once a week patch change no fuss no muss.

I just switched from 15mg oxycodone 6 times daily to 8/2 suboxone twice daily. I have ddd and stenosis with cervicogenic headaches. I am getting better relief without any addiction concerns. I had tried the patches, but they actually made my headaches worse. This has been a life saver because oxycodone had all but stopped helping and my practitioner said I couldn’t take more.
