They are very similar. My doctor has put me on and we've tried to figure out what works. best. I get 10mg Norco & 20mg Oxycodone, and I alternate, it REALLY helps!!! (I have a LOT of medical issues.)

@birdie,

I think as post #1 suggested, you pretty much just have to work with your doctor to find out what best suits your level of pain. Some people debate that oxycodone is a step up from hydrocodone. I think the answer may vary with each individual based on personal preference.

And as far as comparing morphine ER to immediate release oxycodone, there's probably no easy way to determine an equivalent dose since one is being slowly released...However if it's of any help, the following article by NIH suggests that controlled release oxycodone is twice as potent as controlled release morphine:

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10492054

Bottom line, you know your body best. So it may be worth while giving each medication a trial run if your doctor is comfortable with that approach.

I hope this helps!
