Oxycontin 40mg Controlled Rel Tabs Substitute
(Newest replies first)

My insurance no longer covers Oxycotin 40mg ER. I was taking it 2 x a day and also taking Oxycodone 30mg 3 x a day due to my injury. I will like to know what will be a good substitute for Oxycotin 40mg ER. Thanks a lot.

Hello, Matraquita! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you've run into.

There are several other options available, including MS Contin and Opana ER, both are time released and are available as generics.

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.

However, only your doctor can decide what would be right for you to try.

Is there anything else I can help with?
