i take a combination of 80 mg oxycodone daily
broken down to (2) 20 mg oxycontin and (4) 10 mg
oxycodone Because oxycodone is covered by my insurance and oxycontin is not entirely, I want to medicate with all oxycodone. I can only get oxycodone in 10 mg. What is the best way to take this medication. Thank You

Oxycontin is just a brand name for Oxycodone in a time released formulation, so you've already been medicating with all Oxycodone.

Learn more Oxycodone details here.

The only different between it and the 10mg you've been taking is that the 10mg is a regular release, so it doesn't last 12 hours, like the Oxycontin is designed to do.


To switch, you should talk to your doctor to figure out the best dosing schedule for you to use, so the regular release Oxycodone gets control of your pain.

Has your doctor provide any advice?
