Hon, you are in the wrong community. This community is for substance abuse/addiction . Medhelp has a pain forum that will answer that question. Good luck
YES! There is a nation wide shortage of oxys. My doctor was substituting with percocets, Till I was finaly switch to the patch. Percocets is oxys with apap. The shortage is suppose to be over maybe this month.
A news article here said someting about the DEA only allows so much to be manufactured. And they came in late with thier estimates, Now production is behind. Anyways, thats what I had read.
Im surprised your Dr didnt know this already when they first wrote the initial script.
