There are some Dr's that will prescribe it as part of the detox/withdrawal process.Fentynal is one of the strongest pain killers there is and they give to late stage cancer patients so use caution with these patches.Going from Vic's to Fentynal is a big jump in potency and I would probably not go that route.Good Luck

My f-i-l was given a duragesic patch when he had cancer on his spine- before sugery-so- that is how strong it is. I would use this as an absolute LAST RESORT! Just my opinion!

Hang in there- sorry you are having such a rough time with your back,
