I have been taking OxyContin since they were first put on the market and have not had any bad side effects.Two weeks ago when I got my script filled I got the new OP 40mg. I have a bad rash all over from head to toe that started the second day I began taking the new Oxy OP. Has anyone else had skin problems since taking these new pills AND does anyone know WHAT is in these new OP pills? I can't live with the PAIN & I hope this RASH is not the med, but this is the only new thing in my life so I'm afraid I'm having a reaction to whatever they have put in it!!!! Maybe this would be something a LAWYER might look into?

I don't know exactly what they use as the inactive ingredients, however, we have had many complaints about the new product causing odd side effects and bad reactions in some people.

Thus, there is a good chance that something in it is causing your rash, however, only your doctor can tell you for sure. Have you contacted them, yet?

I suggest reporting the problem to both Purdue and the FDA at the following numbers:


Purdue Pharma number for drug safety/medication issues:

888.726.7535


FDA MedWatch number:

800-332-1088
