what is lexotanil? and what are the normal uses for this drug and side effects? I am in pakistan working as a contractor and I am suffering from severe nerve pain radiating from my neck down my right arm. I have a herniated disc in my neck causing this.  I have seen 3 different doctors here in pakistan. I am very unaware of Pakistani medication.  When I was seeing a physician in the states he normally prescribed me with oxycontin or percocet.  I have been trying to tell these Pakistani doctors that I need a strong narcotic pain med to just kill the pain until I go home and have surgery.  Any knowledge of narcotic pain meds that would be equivalent to percocet or oxycontin in Pakistan?  I need something to suggest to these doctors.  I have been trying to explain that I'm not just trying to get high, I just need to kill the pain until I can go to my nuerosurgeon and have the microscopic discectomy done.
