Maybe: This will depend upon how frequently you are needing to take pain medication during the day and the cause of your pain. In general it is a good idea to limit the duration of the use of opiates and to see if there are alternatives treatments. Long term opiate use can actually make you experience more pain. I would recommend discussing this with your prescribing physician regarding your situation.
