Hello, Veteran! How are you?

You'd need only 30mgs of Oxycodone for each 45mgs of Morphine that you take. The time released formulation of Oxycodone is called Oxycontin.

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?
