A Stacy Wiegman, PharmD , Pharmacy, answered. There is no generic version of Nucynta (tapentadol). Nucynta is an opiate (narcotic) analgesic -- medication prescribed for people with chronic pain who need relief around the clock and will likely have pain for an extended period of time. It's not used to treat acute bouts of pain.
Nucynta although synthetic and has a half life of 4 hours will show up as a class 2 narcotic in a urine test. However don't count the half life in terms of it not being detected.Multiply the half life times 4 and then it will be 99.9% gone from your body.So at 50mg that would be roughly 7.4 days. 4 people found this useful.
