hydromorphone hydrochloride (8mg) for kidney cancer
Started using oxycodone (OxyContin and oxynorm) but I just had to take so many of them and was drowsy all the time. And because I now only have 1 kidney, I was switched to Palladon-SR 8 mg 3 x a day and if necessary, supplement up to 6 x a day with Palladon-IR 2.6 mg no side effects from this.

sunitinib malate (62,5mg) for kidney cancer
