I was not aware that any doctor would give that much orally.

The oxy base dose is one 20 mg time release pill. This much will affect your reactions somewhat and makes you a bit goofy at first. The pill comes in sizes up to 50-60mg if I recall.

BTW, this stuff is not for really bad a deep pain, it gets through. You go to morphine for that. They make an oral version called Oramorph. The dose is similar to OxyContin.I used it for a while, but there is noway anyone could tolerate 900 mgs unless they had been on it for many years.

BTW, the addiction problem is irritating but you can break it on your own.

I thought she was on pills of 150 mgs, but I may be wrong. She had the Oxycontin pill and then Oxyfast or something like that for breakthrough pain. She had a herniation in mid spine that flattened the spinal chord and has pretty much wrecked her life. Had operation on that in January but still is experiencing some severe pain. Is seeing a specialist now to determine the pain, but she's no longer on that high of a dosage to my knowledge (I know for a fact that she voluntarily stepped back as much as possible). Incidentally, her weight has almost doubled since being on the medication.
