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)

 5   I feel that by other pain meds I have been prescribed hydro codone and lortab used to work, but the fda did something tomake the hydro codone I have been prescribed many years ago used to work within 15 to 20 minutes taking the pain away from my foot which I severely broke and didn't get the proper help making it heal wrong.i have been in chronic severe pain the very first day I injured it which has grown worse as time passes.so I feel that by taking morphine sulfate will work, unless they have changed it to be unaffected Please email me back and if you have a true knowing that morphine sulfate will work well for me.

 4  chronic neck and back pain At times I feel unable to focus. The best I can describe it is like trying to carry on a conversation while your kid repeatedly says "dad, dad, dad". However, in my case it is often hard to concentrate due to the pain, so I call it a wash. Constipation is a minor problem considering how much it helps. Also, when it is wearing off I tend to get irritable for about half an hour so I try to isolate myself when it is wearing off(for me about 8 hours). I find it helps with the pain but doesn't totally take it away. I actually like that because it helps keep me from over doing anything. I still do mind you, but at least I am aware of it. I still have my job and without morphine it would be impossible. I try to take it only when needed or when I am sure it is going to be a rough day. For example on weekends fishing with my sons or doing any long standing or physical work. M 39 4 years

 4  chronic low back pain Constipation.was the worst side effect but can be remedied with softeners. I've been on narcotics for 21yrs due to an on the job injury. 2 herniated disc 1 cracked vertebra and tore stomach wall off pelvic. 12 major surgeries.narcotics had stopped working except for high doses. Percocet oxytocin and the doses just kept getting bigger. I started taking morphine sulfate er 15mg every 12hrs 4 days ago. Doc told me we would have to adjust but we'll start low. What I've found is it does work but my breakthrough pain starts abt 6hrs. So when I go back in 3 days we'll move it up and go to a breakthrough med every 6hrs and I think I'll be able to function as normal as possible under the circumstances. That will take me from 360 pills to 180! I wish it were none but I'll take it. M 43 4 days

 3  I had surgery on a toe from mrsa Drowsiness, dry mouth sometimes when I awake, severe headache, legs kicking uncontrollably when about to fall asleep, strange vivid dreams, same hallucinations only at night felt like my head was being forced to shake or slammed repeatedly only when I was seconds from falling asleep forcing myself to become conscious (happened quite often and was kinda scary) Seconds of euphoria. By the way it was given through an iv p.I.c. line each time.For me it helped me fall asleep more than anything as for pain Motrin 600mg is way more effective (my other option for pain relief) M 21 7 weeks

 4  Pain relief aft motorcycle accident Dry throat/dehydration, Constipation, sleep difficulties, mood swings, depression, lethargy, sweating/feeling hot all the time, acne (mainly on back and shoulders). 1 night of proper scary hallucinations (was convinced people were grabbing my face/head and trying to stab me!). Had been taking Tramadol for back pain for 18months prior to motorcycle accident, which I feel reduced my reactions to morphine sulphate as my system is used to opiate type pain relief (Tramadol initially caused itching, dizziness/light headed and mild nausea). Morphine Sulphate is great at relieving the pain of my complex talus, pelvic and lumbar fractures, however it doesn't seem to help with coxsyx pain and it wears off within approx 4hrs. I also have Oramorph for relief between the 12 hourly tablets. M 31 4 months
20mg 12hrs
