OXYCONTIN VS OXYCODONE

Both OxyContin and oxycodone are opioid medications that physicians prescribe to treat chronic pain. Technically, these two medications are the same. Though, many medical professionals consider oxycodone to be the safer of the two options. Acetaminophen and iBuprofen are often present in specific formulations. Other medications, including Percocet, Percodan, Tylox, and OxyContin, all contain oxycodone in their make up. What sets OxyContin apart from the rest is the fact that oxycodone is the only ingredient.
