Hi Sandy.

I have been taking Nucyenta for four months now. My PM prescribed it for pain. It a class 2 narcotic and is very similar to Morphine. It comes in several dosages. Mine is 50mg three ties a day. I live in MD and have had a horrible time finding a pharmacy that carries it. My hometown pharm. took three months to finally get it for me. He said it is very new and outragesly (sp?) expensive, so not too many prescribe it. I had to pay for it with my primary insurance (not w/c) and my copay was $40.00 for 90 pills! Well worth it for me, as I cannot tolerate narcotics, but I am not constantly vomiting with this. Hope it works for her.
Kim
