oxyMORphone HCl
Oxymorphone is a powerful opioid medication used to treat severe pain. Its strength and potency make it effective in taming severe suffering, but just like with all opioids, its misuse can lead to addiction, overdose, or even death. Therefore, it's only recommended when other treatment options are ineffective. Typical side effects include nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, and constipation, but your healthcare provider will supervise your treatment to ensure the benefits override these challenges.
