My wife had to switch to a different medication because she kept forgetting things. I was really shocked and worried about her. She's better now and we are both much happier.

I’ve been on Xtampza ER for chronic pain, and it’s definitely helped, but the side effects are no joke. I have hallucinations few times a week that feel like they last mini-eternities. I am looking for some advice here.

I've been on Xtampza ER for about a year now, and it's made a world of difference in managing my pain. The constipation is brutal, but adjusting my diet and using stool softeners has helped. The extended-release formula is definitely a game-changer. It keeps my pain levels steady without the constant dosing. The constipation is pretty bad, but worth it for the pain relief.

I was prescribed this for chronic back pain and I experienced some serious mood swings while on Xtampza. My doctor switched me to a different medication and that seemed to help.

I experienced a really heavy allergic reaction. My skin was itchy and peeling. Luckily I stopped taking the medication immediately when I noticed it was turning into a rash.

I have recently switched to Xtampza ER and I can swear I experienced some serotonin syndrome symptoms. I felt like I was going crazy, with agitation and seeing things that were not there. I'm sure it was just the medication. Has anyone else experienced this?

I can't believe some of these side effects you guys are experiencing. I've been on Xtampza ER for 6 months and haven't had any issues.

I've had issues with dizziness and fainting, which is scary. This can be life-threatening, so be very careful and talk to your doctor about your choices.

I started taking Xtampza ER. I thought this was a safer option than other opioids. I've been on it for 2 months and I noticed some hair loss. This can't be a side effect, can it? It's been pretty devastating, I've always had thick hair.
