OxyContin 20 mg is a prescription, extended-release opioid pain medication used to manage severe, around-the-clock pain when other treatments are not sufficient. It is intended for long-term pain management and is not for occasional or “as needed” pain.
Key points:
Active ingredient: Oxycodone hydrochloride (20 mg, extended-release)
Typical use: Chronic severe pain requiring continuous opioid treatment
How it’s taken: Swallowed whole, usually every 12 hours, exactly as prescribed
Do not: Crush, chew, split, or dissolve the tablets, as this can release the full dose at once and greatly increase the risk of overdose.
Common side effects: Drowsiness, constipation, nausea, dizziness, dry mouth
Serious risks: Slowed or stopped breathing, overdose, dependence, misuse, and addiction—especially if taken differently than prescribed or combined with alcohol or other sedating drugs.
