3 100 mcg patches? No, not equal! The 3 100 mcg patches are way stronger than 2 100 mg MsContin. I am very sorry for all the pain you've had to endure and what has caused it all. I'll be praying for you to have more good days than bad.
I donk know if its equal, but one thing is for sure with the patch, its a constant delivery..No peaks or valley's, so its constant for the most part. I, myself was never really able to get the same kind of constant relief from an oral medication. Im just saying...I hope you feel better, and good luck
