Thanks for the helpful post!

That is correct, there are two different narcotic medications.

The Oxycontin contains a time released formulation of Oxycodone and the MS Contin contains a time released formulation of Morphine.

The Contin is just used to denote that they are time released.


Since they are both narcotics, they share a similar side effect profile, which can include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
