Yeah. It's usually extended release instead of the percocet, which is immediate release.
Not all the time but that's what I've seen.

Hello, Katy! How are you?

No, Raine, you are correct, both contain Oxycodone, but Percocet also contains Acetaminophen/Tylenol and Oxycontin just contains Oxycodone in a 12 hour time released formulation.

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 I can help with?

Suzie,
Both medications contain oxycodone xtampza er is an extended release preparation so the frequency of use should be reduced.It is about 40% stronger quantifiably speaking.Hope that helps.Regards,Kenie
