Anyone who takes this medication PLEASE beware! I am by nature optimist even with a sever pain condition.But this medication put me in a VERY dark place.I started thinking very dark thoughts that really I never have considered. I also felt no pain relief. I believe that these ineffective drugs are being pushed on pain patients by big pharmicutical companys because effective proven meds no longer are big money for them. And they are lobbying with our representitives to take away truly proven opiods away from pain sufferers for their own profit and our endangering our quality of life note:I have never abused or used opiods or any other drugs before having to have them help me survive a painful and devastating pain condition. Real pain relief should always be available to the suffering people. I question whether these positive reports are really true accountsRead More Read Less
