Difference Between Oxycodone Amn And Kvk (Top voted first)

I've had two surgeries, received oxcodone for both surgeries. I just noticed I've got the same dosage (5mg) but at the end one says amn, the other says kvk. How do the two prescriptions differ, if at all?

REPORT

Those are just abbreviations for the manufacturer, amn stands for Amneal Pharmaceuticals and the KVK is KVK Tech, but the medication is the same.

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.

Is there anything else I can help with?

After surgery my doctor prescribed KVK Tech. pills which were smaller and made me feel very alert. Subsequently my physiatrist prescribed AMN Tech Oxycodone.. The AMN oxycodone tends to make me really sleepy. Perhaps there are other substances added to the Amneal ones that cause this effect.
Thank you in advance of a more detailed explanation. Best Wishes.
