Oxycodone is a semi-synthetic opioid medication used to relieve moderate to severe pain. It is a Schedule II drug under the Controlled Substances Act, indicating its high potential for abuse and addiction.
Oxycodone is prescribed for the following conditions:
* Severe pain after surgery or injury
* Chronic pain conditions, such as cancer pain, arthritis, and lower back pain
* Breakthrough pain in patients with chronic pain who are already taking other opioids
Oxycodone is typically taken orally in tablet or capsule form. The dosage varies depending on the severity of pain and the individual’s response to the medication. It is important to take oxycodone exactly as prescribed by the doctor to avoid overdose or addiction.
