Hi XXXXX
Welcome back to Healthcare Magic.
Duragesic patch is more stronger and has less side effects as compared to morphine patch.
It is longer acting and more favorable drug but availability may be an issue.
The drugs should be taken in supervision of a physician.
I hope the advise will be helpful for you.
