Been in pain clinic for years. having trouble coming off of the oxycodone. was taking 60mg every 6 hrs. i'm down to 7.5mg every 4. almost out. help?

Most likely because: In my experience the most likely cause is an opiate use disorder not recognized. Indeed, I would assume so given the doses, duration of care, your age, and troubles you are having in reducing the dose. Patients who have opiate use disorders benefit from medication assisted treatment whether they have pain or not. Check out DrRotchford.com and elsewhere for information about same.

Doing a report and can't get a definitive answer. If someone took Oxycodone that was over 5 years old would it still work? If yes, would it work just as well as it originally did?
