What The Difference Between Oxycodone & Hydrocodon (Page 2) (Top voted first)

I was just wondering what the difference between Oxycodone and Hydrocodone, it seems to me they both have the same ingredients. Why Oxy or Hydro, what does this mean?

Mr Davis, In my opinion, The Oxy would be better. But DON'T take my word and run with it. ASK your MD as everyone has different effects to MEDS such as OXYCODONE, PERCOCET, and the like. Like myself, OXY just made me sleep better at night. I didn't get high or drowsey or any of the warning sign effects. But I know some people that swears that two pills at once and they fill light headed and dizzy. GO FIGURE?

Frank has provided some good advice here, Oxycodone is well know, and warned about in the advisory leaflets, for causing dream disturbances and nightmares. I know it sure drove me crazy until it wore off. I was waking up all the time, thinking AH it was just a dream, oh good LOL!

So those with sleep problems already, from pain, insomnia, or whatever, might not want to rely on it as a before sleep pain med, and may want to speak to their docs about something else.
