Can I Take MS Contin Along With Oxycodone And Paregoric?

I also take MS Contin 60 mg BID. How is this holding up with the Oxycodone 10/325, 4 times a day, as well as 6 tablespoons of paregoric per day. My back and knees still give me a fit, have had 3 spinal surgeries,both knees operated on, 4 heart attacks, triple by pass heart surgery, a stroke, heart failure, currently have my 2nd ICD which I have been shocked 2 times from (saved me both times). Thanks for listening Paul

You should be asking your personal physician who prescribed these medications as to what combination is necessary and/or adequate for the pain. If you are self treating I would highly recommend you seek out a physician to help with managing your pain. You are talking about combining a lot of high powered opiate drugs which can result not just in side effects but also in biochemical effects which include dependency issues and you want to avoid this pitfall. Please rate this a 5 STAR ENCOUNTER and feel free to write more questions to me at: XXXX
