How Long After Taking Opana-ER Should One Consume Food?
I m starting Opana ER 20mg for pain this evening. I know I must take the medication on an empty stomach. When may I eat after I ve taken my dose? It is absorbing slowly into my system,but how long do I need to wait before I can ingest. It would be my morning dose I m concerned about. I m going to take the night dose at 10pm, so I need to repeat the dose at 10am. That s a long time to wait to eat. So if you can answer my question I would really appreciate your feedback. My breakfast gets closer to lunch time. I have always been a small framed and built. I weigh a 100lb soaking wet. So you can see my issue about skipping a meal. Thank you you your time and attention to my question. As always, YYYY@YYYY

Hello.
You can eat about an hour after you take the Opana ER. Or, alternatively, you can eat something half an hour before you take the medication.
So, really, no need to skip breakfast--just eat at nine AM or a little earlier
