There is no such thing as another pain med for an oral pain med....Actually you are on a lot of oral pain meds. What you should be on now is a pain patch and use the oral oxycodone for the break through pain. I am guessing you are already up to an 100mcg Fentanyl patch or whatever patch your doctor uses and then should be using lower dose oxy's for the break through. The patch gives better pain coverage and is changed every 48 to 72 hours. Good luck
