Hi Adam,
        Even for opioids , equianalgesic dosage charts are only
approximations and the exact equianalgesic dose will vary from one
patient to another. (Look up
http://www.ohsu.edu/ahec/pain/appendixC.pdf ) For non-opiods,
effectiveness of drugs vary greatly from one patient to another and it
is hard to come up with a consensus. However, the following sites
might help you with your research :
