Suggest Treatment For Chronic Pain

I am chronic pain patient after 23 major surgeries now on suboxone 8mg a day. One film each day. Also take catapress .1 mg 3 times daily for hypertension. Flexeral 10 mg 3 x day. Just started today nurontin 300 mg 3 x day. I need sleep may I take one or two soma 350 mg to help me sleep. How sad I thought some how this was a site set up to truly care. But money is first and foremost I am sure. I will call my pharmacist. Thank you for your time though.

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You can take drugs like zolpidem or sedatives like clonazepam for sleep. You can discuss with your physician and start either of these drugs for adequate sleep.
Soma is not a good idea for sleep.

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