Only that this medication is not nearly as effective. I think the time release mechanism is off because the new covering is not allowing the pill to dissolve in the stomach timely and in the amount intended as in the original version. It's a real shame because this slow release medication worked wonders for me for over 5 years and now I am back to square 1, along with my doctor, having to explore other options. Now the abusers of this drug have moved on to heroine and other illegal drugs and the ones of us who truly benefited from this medication, by taking it the way it was intended to bee taken, are left we are left with a medication that is no longer as effective as it once was. This is truly an injustice and, in my opinion, inhumane!!
I tried searching around for information on this but haven't come across anything explaining where it's metabolized, only how it's metabolized. It's a simple question you ask, but very difficult to find reliable information on.
In terms of drug testing, Oxycodone is excreted through the urinary tract. Whether or not or it broken down first by the stomach or bowels is beyond my knowledge of the drug. I would think however that it is dissolved in the stomach acid, the same way most foods and drinks are metabolized, before they are discarded as waste. Just my opinion.
Does anyone else have any information to add on this subject?
