Need Names of Drugs Like Fentanyl

Posted by juanantoniod on July 11, 2003, at 15:12:20

Hello all,
I hope you don't mind this sort of off-topic request. Since you all seem to know a lot about medications, and this is the only place I know to go, I thought you might be able to help me.
My pain doc has prescribed Fentanyl "lollipops" for my back pain. The insurance company has denied this, saying it's not on their "Recommended Drug List" and that it's not approved by FDA for this use.
Does anyone know what drugs would be similar to Fentanyl that I could check for on the Recommended Drug List? I know about Demerol, Dilaudid, Morphine, Percocet and Oxycontin and I've tried all those, with no relief of the pain.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Antonio
