Is This Unsafe?

Updated

Is it unsafe to take eight 10mg oxycodone pills in an eight hour span? Is this unusual or harmful? Would this be considered drug abuse? I'm worried about one of my friends.

Not necessarily dangerous. Doses go that high. More important is why your friend needs this much pain medication and why the MD who wrote the script isn't addressing the problem adequately.

It could be unsafe, if the person is not used to taking that much, so their body has no tolerance to the medication.

And it could be considered abuse if they have not been prescribed that many to be taken in the short of a time period.

Yes, there are higher dosages of it available, as was stated, but normally just a higher dosage pill would be prescribed. Someone is not usually prescribed 8 of the 10mg tablets to be taken in 8 hours.

Do they have a prescription for it?
