What do you tell your dr. to get morphine prescribed?

Tell them you are addicted to illicit opiates, and in the effort to practice good harm reduction that should provide you with a legal, prescribed, alternative. Worked for me.

I agree with the above answer if you really are addicted, then you need help, and that's the best place to go and get treatment, but they won't give you morphine, they will give you a synthetic version 'methadone'.

That it worked for the first poster is probably an anomaly. When you tell doctors you are addicted to opiates, they test it by injecting you with naloxone. If you are addicted, you immediately show physical withdrawal symptoms (the kind of symptoms that cannot be faked).

They definitely will not prescribe you morphine if you tell your doctor that you are addicted to opiates. That is one of the most ridiculous things I have heard in my 21 years of life. Morphine is one of the strongest and one of the most addictive opiates out there. If you go to your doctor, and any in-patient/out-patient center they will most likely prescribe you suboxone or subutex. Doctors are cracking down on prescribing methadone to drug abusers/addicts because it, itself is an opiates were as suboxone and subutex are an opiate blocker. I am prescribed suboxone, I have only been on it one month so far, and I will only be on it for 2 months all together, it is helping a lot with my opiate addiction..but it isn't a magical pill you also need to work the program if you want to stay clean. In your situation, if you want to be prescribed opiates I would say that telling your doctor you are addicted to illicit opiates is not the answer.

Doctors giving opiates to known drug abusers is one of the fastest ways to have their license and DEA registration revoked. The only exception to this is Suboxone and Methadone therapies.
