Sometimes: Pain management can be very challenging, and often, chronic pain pts take a long-acting opioid with short-acting rescue narcotic, to control symptoms. Please schedule appointment with pain specialist, and get fully educated regarding the specific strategy.

No: I do not think so. There is no reason to use multiple drugs that do the same thing at the same time. At most, one long acting and one short acting drug, but not multiple drugs with similar mechanisms of action.
