My mother takes alot of painkillers for her back and I want to know where each of the pills she has taken stands compared to the next one. I need to make some sense of all the pain pills she has been on.

Go to your local pharmacy and ask for a book called The Merk Manual. This is a book that is used by the entire medical field when it comes to researching medications. You could also check your local library but I don't know how up to date it would be. These books are issued each year. With new meds. Good Luck

On her next doctor's appointment, she should bring up her concerns and have the physician explain each one and why she needs it.
Otherwise, here is a website with a lot of info on prescriptions. You can look them up there: http://www.rxlist.com/
