— -- Question: Morphine Makes Me Nauseated. Does That Mean All Pain Killers Will Have The Same Side Effect?

Answer: If morphine makes you nauseated, in certain cases if you can tolerate it with other medications, over a period of time, the nausea may go away.

Or on the other hand, you could rotate to another opioid, and you may have no nausea at all with that particular medication.
