Hello, Holly! How are you?

There is no 20mg instant release Oxycodone on the U.S. market. The IR is only available in 5mg doses. Any others are either regular release, or time released.

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.

That said, there are no Oxycodone tablets that I can find listed on the U.S. market that match this description.

Has anyone else seen these tablets?
