Hi, you are in a search of a pain killer,you are using vicodin es, and satisfied with it, and not like to have morphin due to sedation, but your doctor want to replace it.
I to my patient with such condition prescribe, neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, and one injection every every week, fort night, and a month. Slowly withdrwing the vicodin and starting other drug like acylofenac, or diclofenac when ever necesory, Thank you.
