Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does OxyCONTIN Work?

Oxycodone works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, altering the perception of pain and the emotional response to pain. This action leads to analgesia (pain relief) and a sense of well-being.

Common Dosages

  • Extended-Release Tablets: Common strengths include 10 mg, 15 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, 40 mg, 60 mg, and 80 mg.

Typical Dosing

  • The dosing regimen is individualized based on the patient’s pain severity and previous opioid exposure. The usual starting dose for opioid-tolerant patients may begin at 10 mg every 12 hours, while opioid-naĂ¯ve patients should start at a lower dose, typically 5 mg every 12 hours.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Management of Chronic Pain: for patients requiring continuous opioid analgesia.

Who Shouldn't Take OxyCONTIN?

  • Known hypersensitivity to oxycodone or any component of the formulation.
  • Severe respiratory depression or acute asthma.
  • Paralytic ileus (a condition that causes a lack of movement in the intestines).


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Take OxyContin exactly as prescribed; do not crush, chew, or break the tablets, as this can lead to a dangerous increase in the release of the drug.
  • Avoid alcohol and other central nervous system depressants, as these can enhance the sedative effects and increase the risk of respiratory depression.
  • Regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider are important to evaluate pain control and monitor for signs of misuse or dependence.
