Oxycontin makes you sweat?

Im taking 20 mg of Oxycontin three times a day for a severe back injury and siactic nerve damage. Ive been taking it since November. The one thing I hate the most is it makes me sweat for no reason. Has anyone else had this problem or should I be looking at other causes, and not the drug.?

Narcotics are the oldest and safest form of pain relief available. I take Oxycontin for PCS since July 06 and it works wonders. Yes, it does make me feel warm/ flushed and sweat for no reason... I wake up at night bathed in sweat sometimes. I say the sweat is worth it since it relieves my pain.

Don't be afraid or ashamed to take these meds. If your doc precribed them and you genuinely need them, they aren't dangerous. The danger comes from people trying to take it to get high or increasing their dose without doctor supervision. Alarmists who automatically jump to how dangerous and addictive narcotics are are buying into the propaganda Opiophobics are putting out ther. Narcotics have their place. Sometimes nothing else works. They have been around for centuries, and if you genuinely need them, they are a Godsend.

all and any nacotics can and usually will make you sweat and itch!!

It didnt make me sweat but it made me vomit horribly. It I believe has strong side effects. i stopped them and asked for another pain killer. Change I suggest.
