im on 15 mg roxicodone ir 5x aday they want to put my on phental patches witch is safer
I'm not sure of the safer of the two, however I have beeen on Durgesic(fetynal) patches for six years and they do provide considerabe relief of 
chronic pain. The majot drawback is the price and getting approval from insurance companies.
