small,white,round, w/line in middle.other side54/583 ## This is NOT Roxicontin nor any form of narcotic. This is Furosemide 40mgs, a generic for the Diuretic Lasix. ## roxicontin pills generally have either an m in a box or a v on them although there used to be ones with a's on one side they are always a light blue color thus earning them the nickname blues in my town lol but the v's are a dark blue

I received orange round pills turns to gel immediately taste just like an oxy but I don't know if it is safe to take ## Hello, Jojo! How are you? What are the markings on the tablets? That is what would enable them to be identified for you. Can you please post back and clarify? Thanks! The FDA classes Oxycodone 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.

blue round pill ## Are you supposed to take 4 tablets a day? ## It really depends on what they are talking about. There is no Roxicontin! It is either Oxycontin, which is a 12 hour time released medication, meant to be taken twice a day or Roxicodone, which is meant to be taken more frequently.

is roxicontin similar to oxycontin?what narcotic is in roxicontin? ## First of all, let's clear up the fact that there is no medication called Roxicontin. Many people confuse them, but it is actually two different products. One is called Oxycontin and it is a time release formulation of the narcotic Oxycodone. The other is called Roxicodone and is a regular release formulation of the same narcotic, Oxycodone. So, both contain the same active ingredient, one is just time released.

Does anyone know the difference between Roxicontin (Roxycontin) and Oxycontin? ## The correct drug names are Oxycontin and Roxicodone, they both contain the narcotic Oxycodone, but Oxycontin is an extended release formulation that is taken every 12 hours and Roxicodone is a regular release formulation. ## As far as ROXYCONTIN or ROXICODONE, what are the different milligrams that are available? I know of 15 & 30. Is there a 80 milligram ROXICONTIN? ## Do oxycontin and roxicontin come up as the same substance on a U/A? ## Yes, Jen, since they both contain the narcotic Oxycodone, they will both come up as an opiate on a drug panel. Oliver, no, there is no 80mgs of Roxicodone, it is only available 5mgs, 15mgs and 30mg tablets. ## Is the round light blue pill with M on front and scored o...

Hi, I am currently prescribed 10/325 oxycodone 4 times a day, I REALLY want to get my PM doctor to switch me to Roxicodone but don't know how to go about asking him without sounding like a druggie, I have tried my husbands Roxi's twice and they help me better and last longer, just not sure how to word the request, last visit the dr offered to switch me to morphine but honestly that scares me to be on morphine ## I'm not surer why the Morphine would scare you, when it's not as strong and dangerous as the Oxycodone you are currently taking. What does is his Roxicodone? It contains the active ingredient Oxycodone, which is the same as the narcotic in your Percocet, but the Percocet also contains Acetaminophen, which helps the Oxycodone to work better. ## Tell your doctor yo...

There is no roxicontin its roxicodone 5, 10,15 and 30mg. Then they have oxyir, oxycodone. Those are instant release! ## You are correct, the actual name of the medication is Oxycontin and it contains a time released formulation of Oxycodone. Thus, it has the same active ingredient as the others you've mentioned, but it is taken every 12 hours. Learn more Oxycontin details here. Are there any questions or comments?

oblong pill , purple, nothing on it , white powder inside ## There is no medication called Roxicontin, there is Roxicodone and Oxycontin. They both contain Oxycodone, but the Oxycontin is time released and Roxicodone is not. As to what your pill is, if there are no markings, it is going to be very difficult to narrow down. If it was a legal, U.S. version of any type of Oxycodone, it would have an imprint of some type on it. By law they have to have markings to enable their identification, in case of emergency. The name brand Oxycontin originally had an OC on one side and a number on the other that denoted the dosage, the new product is almost the same, except the marking has been changed to an OP. This could be any one of a large number of over the counter items or foreign medications. ...

round and light blue pill with A 215 on one side ## First off, I would like to state that there is no medication called RoxiContin! The name brands are Roxicodone, Roxicet and Oxycontin. This tablet contains 30mgs of Oxycodone, generic for Roxicodone. This means it is a regular release tablet, were as Contin would signify a time released medication. This is a very strong, narcotic pain reliever. Some of the most common side effects include: drowsiness, nausea, dry mouth and constipation.

I have undergone a total knee revision. My local pharmacy refuses to fill my prescription for roxicontin 5mg that my surgeon has prescribed to manage my pain. Why is this a problem? ## Hello, Lester! How are you doing? Sorry about the problem that you're having. What reason did the pharmacy give for not filling it? They should've told you something as to why. Without knowing more details, I can't accurately answer your question. Learn more Roxicodone details here. This is 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.

I have a huge (9cm) bone spur in each armpit. My question is "why are the percosets more helpful than the roxicontins, eve with the added.acetaminophen?" ## Hello, Denise! How are you? The Acetaminophen augments that efficacy of the narcotic in some people, so it may be helping it to work better for you. 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. Are the 15mg tablets Roxicodone or Oxycontin? Because, if they are time released, then they also don't work all at once, like Percocet does.

30 M ## The medication names are often misunderstood, so I like to add details to posts, whenever I can, that can clear this up and hopefully prevent some confusion. There is no medication on the market called Roxycotton or Roxicontin and there never was. This is actually a confusion of two different formulations of Oxycodone. One is a regular release of it that was originally under the name brand Roxicodone and the other is a time released formulation that's under the name brand Oxycontin. That said, while I don't have a picture to include, due to copyright reasons, yes there is a 30mg Oxycodone tablet with the marking 30 M, it's a very light blue color, round and has the 30 over a score line on one side and the M in a box on the other. It is one of the generics for the reg...

little round,white,with eph on one side ## Is the marking EPH or ETH? If it is ETH is made by Ethex pharmaceuticals and to be sure what it contains, you will need to post back and provide the complete imprint that is on the tablet. That is the only way to identify the ingredients. There is also no such things as Roxicontin, the correct names would be Oxycontin, which contains Oxycodone in a time released formulation or Roxicodone, which contains Oxycodone in a regular release formulation. The said, Ethex does make several of these, if it has the numbers 446 on it, with the ETH, it contains 30mgs of the regular release. If it has the numbers 416 then it contains 10mgs of Oxycodone in the regular release formulation. Both are generics for Roxicodone. Oxycodone is a very potent narcotic pa...

Why is the blue potassium pill so different from the beige capsule? My Aunt suffers (78 years old) with extreme dirherah. She was told that she needed to take this one as a substitue. She has worn a colostomy for the last 20 years. Your opinion please. ## I live in Miami FL and it is pure HELL trying to find a pharmacy that carries Roxicontin/codone 30mgs! I seriously need this medicine bad for myself because I was shot in my back from being victim to domestic violence and the bullets that are still in my back and cannot be removed and leaving me wheelchair bound, cause me extreme pain daily. After the DEA/FDA got involved and cut out seemingly 90% of the availability of this drug that stops my pain to be found in FL because of all the bad press our state have gotten.

blue pill ## 15 mg. roxicotin?? green or blue?? found in sons room!! ## I am a fully recovered addict using oxycotin and other pain medication. The green is usually a roxicotin 15 and the blue one commonly refered as blues are 30 mg's. Most 30's also have a imprint of r215 on one side. ## The colors actually don't mean anything, since these tablets are now available for generic manufacture, the only way to tell what it in them and what the dosage is would be from the imprint on the tablet. If you post back with this information, I will gladly look it up for you. I would also like to state that there is NO medication called Roxicontin, it is either Roxicodone, which is a regular release formulation or Oxycontin, which is the time released formulation, they both contain the ac...

I have to take a drug screen for my dr nd I am prescribed opanas nd Percocet but I have takin more opanas than prescribed nd am out is there ne thng I can take that will show up in a drug test as the opana ## Opana is an opiate so any kind of opiate will blow positive. I know dilaudid is an opiate, I know this sounds off the wall but lomotil will blow positive and it's an antidirreaha medication, tincture of opium will show up too, do a web search for opiates I'm sure there's tons out there I just don't know them. ## bulls*** do not listen to this person, opana is not an opiate it is a synthetic opioid, it will show up on a drug test as oxycodone. You need to take an oxycodone pill to show up the same. These include roxicontin, oxycontin, percocet, opana, dilaudid etc. G...
