MS Contin (morphine) is an opioid medication. An opioid is sometimes called a narcotic.

MS Contin extended-release tablets are used to treat moderate to severe pain.

MS Contin extended-release is for around-the-clock treatment of pain when other pain treatments, such as non-opioid pain medicines or immediate-release opioid medicines, do not treat the pain well enough or cannot be tolerated.

MS Contin is not for use on an as-needed basis for pain.
