A member asked:
How does dihydrocodeine compare to oxycodone in the relief of moderately severe chronic back pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Opioids aren't great: oxycodone is a much more potent analgesic than dihydrocodeine. The problem is that opioids are often not good for chronic pain. They often don't provide lasting results. And lots of patients get dependant on them. If you have PTSD and chronic pain and have had back surgery, it's important to get multidisciplinary treatment that helps you maintain your function. You need mind-body care
