Oxymorphone 10mg

Why is Oxymorphone 10mg prescribed?

Oxymorphone 10mg is prescribed for the relief of severe, acute pain in Australia. The immediate-release tablets are used for pain that begins suddenly and is expected to go away when the cause of the pain is healed. The extended-release tablets are used for severe and persistent pain in individuals who require around-the-clock pain medication for an extended period and cannot be treated with other medications. It’s important to note that the extended-release tablets should not be used for pain that can be managed with as-needed medication. Oxymorphone belongs to a class of medications called opiate (narcotic) analgesics and works by altering the body’s response to pain.
