Heroin and oxycodone are both opiates derived from the opium poppy, but each one is based off of a different alkaloid.
Roxycodone is the brand name for an oxycodone instant release (where Oxycontin is oxycodone continuous release). It is a painkiller and is based off thebaine, an alkaloid from the opium poppy. The effects are a little more speedy then heroinas thebaine has some stimulant properties. It makes you extremely happy and social for a bit then makes you nod (drift in and out of being alert) and just feel good.
Heroin is based off of Morphine, another alkaloid of the poppy plant. Morphine is much more depressant like then thebaine. Along with the euphoria you get much more numb and you nod more then you would on oxy.
Oxy: more of a head high, slightly stimulating but also depressing
Heroin: More of a body high, complete numbness.
Both cause intense euphoria, itchy skin, nodding, constipation, and insomnia since they are both opiates.
