Okay, so all this waiting and turns out my insurance won't pay for Oxycotin. I got MS Cotin. Anyone heard of this or taking it? I would like to get some opinions on this before I take my first one.
Anyone know anything about this med?
Thanks

Scooby,
I posted on your other thread, but I will list the same info here to make sure you get it one place or the other. Sorry for the repeat.
Oxycontin is oxycodone HCL time release. It has a back pain effectiveness rating of 8.5
MS contin is morphine sulfate time release. It has the highest back pain effectiveness rating of 10.
I would say, as long as you can take morphine, your pharmacy did you a favor by substituting a stronger med.
Take care.
