Default Morphine brand w/ lowest abuse potential

Hello,

I need an answer for this sort of quickly (I'm calling the doctor tommorow). My question is simple (I think).

Which brand of sustained release morphine tablet has the lowest abuse potential. Or, perhaps looking at it from your perspectives, which brand of morphine is the least desirable to you?

I want to switch off of methadone because it makes me sweat so much and because it really messes with my sex life (I thought we got the timing down, but it's been more of a problem than I realized) and I think causes some mental confusion.

I've talked to the doctor in about it in the past but he hasn't been willing to because, me having had addiction and abuse problems in the past- and wanting to keep them there- am a risky patient to have at all, so I've got to take what I can get. I'd just like to have as little of that stuff as possible. He let me try fentanyl for a while, but either the dose was way too low or it didn't work well for my pain.

I see morphine as a good alternative for me. From what I've read, it doesn't work well to insufflate, some people saying that it takes almost as long to come on in the nose as it does in the stomach. So that leaves me with chewing, IV/IM/SC and smoking and eating more than I'm supposed to.

I'm not interested in IV/IM/SC or anything else that might involve a needle. But whatever I find should be difficult to prepare for this method.

Smoking is probably not something that can be avoided for any sort of pill. I don't know if there's any type of pill that can't be smoked. Even those that 'can't' really can if you're to sacrifice your lungs.

I don't know if there's a pill that can't be chewed. Is there? From what I can tell, MS Contin seems to be the best for this, I don't know. I was told that the've got this sort of waxy inside that really needs to be broken down by the stomach acid to get it into your body.

I thought that even smashed up wax needed to be dissolved first because the morphine is still inside of it. Like, a pellet of morphine, with a slow dissolve core broken in half exposes the morphine right away; In a wax core, though, with morphine spread evenly in the wax, you can't just crack it open to expose a bunch. Thats just by my understanding (and is quite easily wrong)

If my understanding is right, this would mean that the design of MS Contin would prevent IV/IM/SC, snorting and chewing. There's no way to prevent eating too much (other than the withdrawals that'll come when I run out early). I think theses might be the best.

The other one I looked at was Kadian. I guess the pellets are hard as shit to crush up. They're un-injectable (without doin a lot of work). I don't know if you can crush them for oral use.

Are there any others I should be considering that are harder to abuse? Does anyone have enough knowledge of these to be able to make an ordered by abuse-potential list? I'd really appreciate it. I can't find anyone I know personally who does.

Any help is incredibly appreciated.

Thanks!
