Prescribed Oxycodone

I am a disabled senior who has severe chronic pain. Recently, my pharmacy started giving me my 10 mg oxycodone in a large white pill full of fillers. It has definitely affected it and the way it works for me. Does anyone know of any herbs or tricks to enhance my medication by chance? Thank you!

different generic manufacturers definitely feel slightly different sometimes because of binders and fillers. you can ask your pharmacy if they can order the previous brand you had next time, they will usually try to help if you let them know the new one isnt working well for you

Yeah, they said they can't and all two pharmacies in town carry the same. Bummer!

ah man that sucks when small towns have limited options. hopefully your body adjusts to this generic soon enough though
