Hello, Rose! How are you?

Oxycontin is one and a half times stronger than Morphine. Thus, 80mgs of Oxycodone is actually equivalent to 120mgs of Morphine.

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.
