Suggest An Alternative Medication For Oxycotin

My husband is taking 20 mg cr oxycotin 3 times a day & lortab 10 5 times s day. He is not getting the relief he needs. At first the Oxycotin seemed to help with the lortab for help u till the oxy kicked in. Now the insurance won t cover the oxy. What are our options ? He is never pain free. He s a diabetic & has to be very careful with anything metabolizes through his kidneys. We are getting desperate for pain relief. Any suggestions ?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the pain conditon although it has not be mentioned here which organ of body is paining but I could guess it, fibromyalgia coudl be the cuase, it is better to bear pain instead of taking some potent anagesic, once the pain being tolarated it reaches to the pick level of intensity then start declinig and this is the phase of physiologic analgesia, along with this Tab Diclofenac 50 mg and Chlordiazepoxide can be taken onec in day hope this information helps.
