What Additives Is In Oxycodone Ir 5 Mg

Updated

What does the "IR" stand for located behind the word Oxycodone and in front of the dosage amount, i.e., 5 mg. When I look up he generic Oxycodone I see that it has acetiminiphine and/or NASIDS-Ibuprophine. I believe the manufacture is Palladone. Is there an Oxycodone made that has nothing in it except Oxycodone. Thanks???

The IR stands for immediate release, which means it's meant to release the medication, as soon as you swallow the tablet.

While there are some formulations that contain Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen, this one doesn't. This one only contains Oxycodone.

There are actually 3 formulations available that only contain Acetaminophen, the OxyIR and its generics, which you've already mentioned that are instant release.

There is a time released formulation called Oxycontin, however, there are no generics for it available and there is a regular release formulation called Roxicodone, that is also available as a generic.

They are both narcotics, but the Oxycodone is more potent.

They share common side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness and constipation.

You can learn more about both at the following links:
