"after orthopedic foot surgery i was prescribed percocet.  after side effects my medication was changed to nucynta.  for me, i prefer the nucynta.  my problems with constipation went away immediately.  i had a little itchiness from nucynta, but nothing i couldn&#039;t tolerate.  i got much better pain relief from the nucynta too.  good thing i have insurance as it&#039;s very pricy."
