Please help me. Nancy I am 57 yrears old. ## If the doctor put you on a lower dosage and you went down from 40mg to 30mg, then the shaking and other symptoms you had could have been from the adjustment. Even if you do not abuse a medication, your body still gets used to having that substance in your body in a certain amount and will react to any change. This is what cause...

i've been on the op oxycotin for a month and i am very disoppointed with the pain releafe i'm getting compared to the oc brand and i also get cramps in my legs and it doesent last for a complete 12 hours you should go back to the oc brand i my self are going to change meds ## this site does not manufacture nor sell any medications, this is an information website. Oxycontin OP is manufactured by Purdue Pharma and they are the ones responsible for the change to the formulation. It was done to try to help prevent abuse. There have, however, been many complaints about it. Many people have said it does not work as well for pain relief and there have also been reports of unusual side effects. If you are having a problem with the medication, it is advisable to report it to both Purdue ...

i have been on both oxycotin 80mg and opana 40mg, i started off on opana and when they were changeing the ingred. i had to go on oxycotin 80 mg, i will always say opana 40 are alot stronger than oxycotin 80s i get alot more pain relief on opanas, i read all the time its 10mgs of opana to 30mgs of oxycotin i believe it.... ## Hello, Delta! How are you? Opana is actually twice as strong as Oxycodone, so it would take 20mgs of Oxycodone to equal 10mgs of Opana and how well it works can vary from person to person. There are other posts on here from people who had better results with Oxycontin than they had with Opana. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry ...

It's used to treat moderate to severe pain. ## P.S. I mean it is an opiate. ## Hello, Nick! How are you? Just to clarify what Cats68 has said, because she is so very helpful, Oxycontin is actually both, it's a narcotic opiate. 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. What type of treatment are you referring to?

10 mg oxycotin tablet is a oblong/square white pill with 10 imprinted on it other names oxy 10mg or round white pill with oc on one side and 10 mg on the other ## There are no oblong/square Oxycontin tablets, the name brand Oxycontin is only available as round tablets. The original formulation had the OC marking on them and the new ones have the OP marking on them. There are also none that I'm aware of that contain Oxycodone with Acetaminophen (Percocet) that just have a 10 on them and nothing else that match that description. Where did you find this information? ## Do oxycontin's come in square white pill with OP on one side and 10 on the other ## Was told this small white pill with 10 on one side and a P on other is an oxycodone?? Is it? I can't find any pics of it anywhere.

Are Oxycontin ABG 80 mg.still made? ## Hello, John! How are you? No, the only time released formulation of Oxycontin that is currently available are the name brand tablets manufactured by Purdue Pharma. Due to the increasing theft and diversion of this opiate, the generics were removed from the market several years ago, in order to enable the manufacturer, FDA and DEA to keep better track of the supply. The FDA classifies this medication as 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. Is there anything else I can help with?

5mg oxycotin k 18 on one side an blank on the other. Small white round pill. ## I don't have a picture to post for you, due to copyright reasons. This is not actually an Oxycontin tablet, those are only available as the name brand and would have the OC or OP marking on them, with the number designating the dosage on the opposite side. This time released formulation is also not available in a 5mg dosage. The tablet you have, does contain 5mgs of Oxycodone, but it is the regular release tablet, which is the generic for Roxicodone. It may cause side effects, such as: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and constipation. Learn more: Are there any other questions?

Is that the complete imprint? Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you! I'll keep looking and post back, when I have information for you.

I took 1 30 mg oxycotin and felt better within the hr. How many 800 mg ibuprofen would equal 1 30 mg oxycotin?? ## I'm very sorry that you're in pain. However, the answer is none! These medications are not even comparable. Oxycodone is classified by the FDA as an opiate analgesic, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and is very potent. It may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and constipation. However, Ibuprofen is just a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that's used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding and stomach irritation. You cannot safely double up or triple up on the Ibuprofen, because that may result in overdose toxicity. If you require so...

i really could use any help or info to find my medication generic of oxycodone & Oxycotin. - things have become crazy. im hurting ! &i cant afford the gas (these days) to just drive from pharm to pharm. so please,any info on which pharmacys are currently in stock,id appreciate greatly!!! thank you all,much!! ## Well, there are a couple of options you could try. You can check with a nearby pharmacy about ordering it in for you, most will do that for their regular customers, if they don't have something in stock. And another option would be to ask them to call other pharmacies to ask if they have it in stock, since if you call yourself, you likely won't get an honest answer. Have you tried speaking to your doctor about trying something else? Even something short-term, for ...

Oxycotin Op's are absolute garbage even the Op 80's do nothing for me. ## If you want to do something about your problem with Oxycodone, why don't you ask your doctor to switch you over to something else that works for you? By all means Oxycodone isn't the only pain medication out there.
