go with her to her next doctor's appointment or inform the prescribing medical provider that she is addicted and abusing this dangerous narcotic. you are wise and caring for being concerned but only your wife can stop. have her seek help from a self-help 12-step program. if she is truly in pain seeing a pain specialist is the best way to go. her doctor can refer her. there is really no way for me or any medical provider to make blind pain medication suggestions since we do not know her particular case. she needs help and you can help her get this help.
