Oxycodone Hcl 10 Mg

Updated

I am taking oxycodone hcl 10 mg tablets. my pharmacist filled a new script with np 12 brand. I occasionally divide them to dose only as needed; which does not work very well. They dulled my pill cutters. Is this normal? Does anyone else have this problem?

Hello, Dust! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you've had.

No, that is a new one that no one else has mentioned, at least not yet. Are you making sure to line it up and cut with the little scores that are on the tablet? That usually makes it easier, since that's where they're intended to be cut or broken.

The FDA classifies this medication as being 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.

Has anyone else encountered this?

I realize that you submitted your post quite a while ago, but I just wanted to comment that I also use a pill splitter occasionally and to avoid the build-up on the cutting blade, you just need to wipe it off after every few uses! Be careful though as it is much sharper than you would expect! I have used a Kleenex, both dry and dampened. And it does help to have it lined up correctly too!
