How Effective Is Mylan Oxycodone 15 Mg Ir

Updated

I was just switched from Qualitest oxycodone 15 mg IR to Mylan 15 mg IR because my insurance won't pay for it because the cost went up on Qualitest. My question is I am concerned about the effectiveness of the Mylan oxycodone. I had good pain relief from the Qualitest green pills. I guess my biggest fear is that these new peach pills from Mylan won't take the pain away as we'll as the other brand. I hear stories where people are saying this Mylan brand is crap and another person will say it worked for her. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

There is no 15mg instant release (IR) Oxycodone, if you're taking 15mgs of it, then you are taking the regular release formulation. The instant release is only available in 5mg capsules.

That said, some people do have problems with the products from some manufacturers, but some don't. I have used products from Mylan, without any issues, most recently their Oxycodone tablets for a kidney stone and it was very effective for me.

Learn more Oxycodone details here.

This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

However, the only way to see how it works for you is by trying it.

Are there any other questions or concerns?

My wife has been taking 15 mg IR for over 2 years. Little light green pill with 15 on 1 side and an uppercase M inside a square box imprinted on the other, aka, M in the box. Made by Mallinkrodt. VERY EFFECTIVE!!! For both of us.

Make sure they are the 15mg oxy. Yes there are ir oxy pill still available. In fact they are the most common and one of the only ir pill still floating around. I don't know why. With all the new laws and regulations. . But rest assured that your message should be ir . How ever if the pill seems larger or cannot be easily crushed or smashed it may be laced with a buffer to slow down absorbtion. You should be fine. At least from the information you provided.
