They didn't work for me. And they gave me tinitus. But they might work for you. Most opioids give me pounding ears.

Been on them 4 years but I managed to get my GP to change the brand to the original Napp version more expensive but they work better in my opinion even though they are meant to be identical..goodluck I'm on 25mg bd...with oxynorm in between 4 breakthrough pain if required...which I need daily as longtec/Napp oxy only last me roughly 7 to 8 hours max.....
