Suggest Medication For Chronic Pain Despite Taking Oxycodone

I attend a Pain Clinic for Fibromyalgia and pain from 4 surgeries on my right shoulder. I have constant, bad pain, and allowed to have only 4, 10mg of oxycodone per day. At my last visit my physician asked me if I d like to try Phoenix F.A.S.T, a fast acting, sublingual Tablet. Can you tell me what this is and if it is supposed to alleviate pain. Thanks, Gwyn

Hello,

You can consider higher end analgesics like gabapentin which is quite effective in this condition.

Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
