Hi, You have to deal with one problem at a time. To use the two meds you have got, in order to reduce pain, you need to take a single dose of Oramorph and a single dose of Zomorph together, then every twelve hours take another dose of Zomorph, and take the Oramorph according to the instructions from your GP/medics. Once your pain is under control, you can then start to take laxatives or wean off the Oramorph.

Yes the zoramph is one every 12hrs and the oramph is 2.5 upto 5ml four times a day but i have cut rite back of the oramoph .its terrible dealing with all this 😒 thanks for replying x

You need to ask the doctor for some lactulose to help with the constipation or even senna.

On a lighter point, isn’t it funny discussing things like this with basically strangers knowing you will get answered by people who care?

Hi

I'm on those two meds plus duloxetine and nortriptyline. You definitely need lactulose. Please take care . Love and hugs Lynne xxxx
