Switch from hydrocodone to Oxycodone?

@kayraymat I have never had motility problems with the Percocet or Oxycodone. I take a 5-7 milligram dose (a half of a 10/325 percocet) and half of a 10 oxycodone. It has no known side effects if you drink adequate water and don't take it with alcohol. Except as with any opioid - concerns of addiction if you have addiction issues.
Drink a lot of fluids is always helpful and get yourself moving! Eat a good array of fruits, veggies, and whole grain breads and you should be fine! You can even add a laxative.
I think I am active and eat enough fiber. I drink some coffee in the morning and the warm liquid makes everything "go."
Everyone is different so of course, check with your doc. The only time I have a problem is when I have surgery and anesthesia it puts my intestines to sleep for weeks!

@loriesco
Thank you. It is the increase in Tramadol that has caused the problem, so
I am going to try to get out more to at least walk. I am not eating much at
all so I will also make more salads.
