Oxycontin Vs Roxicodone (Top voted first)
UpdatedI have a precipitation for Oxycontin 40 mg 3 times a day. One night before going to a doctor in the morning I took a Roxicodone 30 mg at 3:00 AM cause I didn't want to take my Oxycontin. The next morning around 7:45 - 8:00 AM my pain doctor did a urine drug test. I was told 2 different stories. One said the dr would be able to tell I took a Roxicodone and several pieces of advice said they are the same ingredients and the lab and dr would not be able to tell I took a Roxicodone. Can someone help me and tell me if the test result would come back that I took a Roxicodone rather than an Oxycontin?

They both contain the same active ingredient, which is Oxycodone. It is an opiate narcotic, the FDA warns that it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth.
The issue on such a test, however, could be due to the levels. Based on your height, weight, age, and other factors, your doctor has an idea of what your average levels should be, so anything that might fall out of that range could be questionable.
Why did you not want to take your Oxycontin?
How in the world did you find a Dr. who will prescribe an adequate amount of morphine? I live in California and you can barely find a Dr. who will prescribe morphine at all.
