Hi
I have recently tried the Transtec Buprenorphine patch. With great success with pain relief - however due to excessive nausea/vomiting had to stop. Tried taking Domperidone and Stemetil for the sickness without success.
Would be useful to know what anti-sickness medication were found to be most effective with this drug induced sickness.
Many thanks
(Great website ) :-)

Ive just gone onto the Fentanyl patch. What is your pain - what is it caused by?
Just wondering as im not having that good experience with the Fentanyl, as it doesnt have the pain reliefe of the Methadone I used to take.

Hi, I started using Fentanyl about 4 months ago. The sickness is horible and I have tried many different sickness tablets without success. I was on the middle strengh of 50. I have sinse gone down to the lowest strength and top up with co-codamol 30/500 4 times a day. I find the pain is much better and the sickness has stopped ( but I do sometimes feel sick). Maybe you could try this combination of pain relief as I have suffered over 2years with back pain and have had 2 spinal operations. These operations do not take the pain away by the way.

Hi ask your doctor for ondansetron wafers. You will feel better in minutes
Guest for the life of me I don't understand how you say you have tried Transtec Bupremorphine patch with great success!! Then you go on to say you had 'excessive nausea and vomiting!' You call this successful?
I also suffer nausea from Fentanyl and to control it I use Ondansetron 4mg wafers. If that hasn't worked within 15-20 minutes I then take a stemezine.
