Useless after that. In 3rd day, cannot even go from computer to kitchen without a ton of pain | M | 70 | 3 days 15 2X day | 2/4/2017 | 1 | A vascular necrosis and | Slight constipation | Was taking hydrocodone 10/325 5 x daily. Switched to morphine 15 mg 5 x daily. I have received absolutely no pain relief. Taking them on a set schedule and never have a moment of relief. I was having better relief on hydrocodone. I was told that this would be a step up and actually this has been like taking nothing at all. | M | 40 | 9 days 15mg | 1/29/2017 | 1 | Had no effect on my pain | No side effects, no relief it was like taking a tic tac. | Dr. swears it is 2x stronger than Percocet, I am out of Percocet Morphine Sulfate is useless. Can't see Dr. until 5/16/2016 and the only thing he says is "Make it work" Does Tim Gunn have that copyrighted? | F | 46 | 3 weeks | 5/9/2016 | 1 | Hip replacement. For pain | Headaches stomach upset intestine upset for two months | Upon stopping this drug I had terrible headache for 2 months | F | 77 | 1 months 15mgs 2xs | 4/11/2016 | 1 | because I was taking hydrododone wi | Nausea brain hurts and feel all my pain but with a feeling of borderline numbness and harder to breath normally | F | 4 days | 3/29/2016 | 1 | To her high | Terrible, feel like throwing up | don't do it | F | 16 | 1 days 1/2 | 9/16/2015 | 1 | Pain in hospital | Could not breathe, dizziness | Be careful with this drug. | F | 1X day | 7/13/2015 | 1 | 2 broken vertebrae & 2 ruptured dis | Slight euphoria, tightening of the throat | F | 58 | 1 days 15 mg. | 9/5/2014 | 1 | RA and herniated disks in neck | It pretty much stops my RA as much as I can do normal activities. Doesn't do anything for my neck. Makes me itch no hives or welts just an itch. Also have noticed I have to just push to pee. I don't like taking it. Will ask my RA Dr for a change of meds. Also no sleep at night so stay sleepy all day Would not recommend this medication. | F | 64 | 5 months 30 mg | 7/27/2014 | 1 | Pain management P | Extreme apathy... | F | 70 | 3 years 30 to 60 m | 4/2/2014 | 1 | neck | Constipation | F | 49 | 6 days 60 mg | 11/5/2012 | 1 | Pain reliever after surgery | I was given this after kidney stone surgery. I had an allergic reaction at the injection site. (I was given it intravenously). Rash and swelling at injection site, ears ringing, tightness in back of neck. | The nurse immediately noticed the reaction and then gave me Benadryl (intravenously). The rash disappeared after a short while. The swelling, however, took a few hours to disappear. Fentanyl, by the way, has caused no problems in me. | M | 50 | 1 days Unsure 1X day | 10/2/2012 | 1 | broken back | my mom is still in so much pain she cant stand it. | F | 74 | 2 weeks 15 mg. | 2/6/2012 | 1 | Chronic Cervical pain | THE WORST...bar none. My 86 year old Mom was taken off Fentanyl patches because they were not cutting it anymore and if she took more fentanyl, she would become loopy. So the pain mgmt doc put her on Morphine, which has been a nightmare start to finish. Her legs no longer worked because the morphine rendered them useless. THEN, she lost the ability to urinate. Talk about one miserable lady. So we are weaning her off, and going to start the hydrocodone again. The withdrawals are NOT fun. If you are elderly, I would NOT suggest you taking Morphine. | F | 86 | 30 days 30 Mgs 3X day | 11/3/2010 | 1 | lumbar fusion within the month | None | Lumbar surgery due within 1 month. Fusion of two discs, titanium rods to be used. Stenosis, osteoporosis, degenerative disc disease, buldging discs. I was changed from Hydrocodone to Morphine about 7 months ago. Morphine has been increased to now 60 mgs 2 X day and 30 mgs 4 X day. It only takes the edge off. I am still in a lot of pain. Side effects of constipation only. Morphine Sulfate has not effected me mentally at all. I handle all mental responsibilities as before. I drive occasionally, not because I can't do it, but because I am afraid that if there were an accident even if not my fault, that I may be sued due to taking this medication. I do not recommend this medication to anyone for the problems I have. I feel it really does not do me any good at all. I just want my quality of life back. I need to be rid of this pain. | F | 65 | 7 months 60 2X day | 7/14/2010 | 1 | cervical fusion c4-6,degenlumbar3-5 | living in a false reality, 60% relief from pain | i was taking 240 mgs a a day for 10 years an recently stopped cold turkey, not a real good idea but the only way you can quit it period rehabs etc will not take you if over 100 mgs a day less then 30% success rate of quitting the dragon drug akin to heroine, I am a Ph.D., sorry to the so called Pain mgmt specialist, you are drug dealers will a license. After a liver transplant from the Univ. of Ala.Birm. Try prayer and exercise it works! | M | 51 | 10 years | 10/19/2009 | 1 | I had a relatively minor surgery | At first nausea, then sweating, itching, my chest seized up - my heart started loudly in my ears. My eyes got all swollen and started watering, my whole body came out in a red bumpy rash. My throat started burning and breathing became almost impossible. The nurses attending to me said that i also changed colour to a light shade of blue... | It did not help with the pain at all. No relief what so ever. | F | 35 | 1 days | 10/5/2008 | 1 | post-op pain hip replacement | No side effects and NO, ZERO! pain relief!! | Had surgery outside U.S. (no insurance)--morphine only post-op pain med available. One previous surgery morphine didn't work either, but demerol did. Check into this before surgery if you have any doubts! | F | 58 | 2 days | 6/24/2007 | 1 | Scoliosis & herniated discs | This pill was a nightmare, in terms of side effects. I began sweating at night so bad that I had to wash my pillows & bedding several times a week. It made me terribly thirsty, but no matter how much water and other fluids I drank, I couldn't stay hydrated. I could NOT get an erection, even with ED drugs. And, worst of all, I became *TERRIBLY* constipated. Laxatives, stool softeners, and even enema kits did NOTHING. It got so bad that, to defecate, I had to put on a latex glove and insert a finger in my rectum to dislodge my fecal matter. It came out in small marble-sized pieces which were VERY hard and dry. As time went on, the pieces got harder and dryer and irritated my colon, causing bleeding. Gross? Yes, not only that but horribly embarrassing, disgusting, humiliating; thank God my wife is a medical professional and understood. As soon as my new medication becomes available, I'm quitting. | It never really helped in terms of pain, other than leveling off the "peaks" and "valleys" that I felt from taking Percocet. I slept a little better; that is, until the sweating (mentioned above) got so bad that I was tossing and turning every half-hour. On its own, even in larger doses taken experimentally (up to 3x the level prescribed), it NEVER ONCE took the pain away. It was, at best, a tool to help manage it. In contrast, Percocet and methadone can take the pain away completely for a time. | M | 28 | 4 months | 4/1/2007 |
MORPHINE SULFATE (MORPHINE SULFATE): This medication is used to help relieve severe ongoing pain (such as due to cancer). Morphine belongs to a class of drugs known as opioid (narcotic) analgesics. It works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain. The higher strengths of this drug (100 milligrams or more per tablet) should be used only if you have been regularly taking moderate to large amounts of opioid pain medications. These strengths may cause overdose (even death) if taken by a person who has not been regularly taking opioids. Do not use the extended-release form of morphine to relieve pain that is mild or that will go away in a few days. This medication is not for occasional ("as needed") use. FDA Approval Date: 2006-10-27 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)
