Hello, Mary! How are you and your father? I'm very sorry about the problem he had.

However, that is a very common misunderstanding of medications. Both of the tablets you mentioned contain the same substances, Oxycodone Hydrochloride with Acetaminophen. The Hydrochloride is not a separate substance, it designates the specific chemical salt that the Oxycodone is derived from.

The FDA classifies this medication as being 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.

Since those symptoms came on so rapidly, after taking the new tablet, it is most likely that it is slightly stronger than the other one that he was taking, so he was experiencing some new side effects, which is very common as his body is adjusting to it. However, since the differences are slight, it usually only takes a week or so and then things improve. This would also explain why the hospital could find nothing wrong.

Has he consulted his PCP?

When taking the ip204 he has to wait 4 hours before taking any of the others or he has those horrible symptoms but if he continues taking ip204 through out the day he is just fine. I just learned that hydrochloride was in all oxycodone. I really don't understand why the ip204 is so different...
