Nope, absolutely not. OxyContin (OC and OP) as well as Roxicodone contain the active ingredient or chemical that produces therapeutic effects called Oxycodone.

A drug screen itself, unless you are required to bring your medications with you, may specifically test for Oxycodone or just opiates in general, however, there is a separate test to test for oxycodone itself.

If a positive result is returned, then the specimen will typically be sent to a laboratory for a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry exam which may be able to detect the different active ingredients, but I seriously doubt that they would do that. It is just to confirm if there is a false positive or false-negative.

It doesn't have to - oxycodone is oxycodone no matter whether you add acetaminophen or not. The test would probably show more oxycodone in you system than you should have, assuming you are supposed to be taking Percocet and are illegally taking more oxycodone than that.

No, these drugs contain the same active compound, and thus would be identical on a drug test.

What is a Ten point drug screen?

I'm assuming that its the same as a 10 panel drug screen. It means that 10 categories of drugs are being tested. In a typical 10 panel drug screen, the following are tested for: 1. THC (marijuana) 2. cocaine 3. methamphetamine (this also includes MDMA - ecstasy) 4. amphetamines 5. barbituates 6. benzodiazepines 7. PCP 8. opiates 9. methadone 10. oxycodone tricyclic antidepressants may also be tested for on the 10 panel drug screen. The most notable of these would be amitryptaline.


Does percocet 10 325 and oxycodone hcl 30mg tablets show up as different drugs on employment urinalysis drug screen and will it reveal higher levels of the drug if you have been taking oxycodone hcl?

Percocet and oxycodone are synthetic opiods, and both have the same active narcotic oxycodone. Percocet is oxycodone 10mg and acetominaphen 325mg. Oxyxodone HCI is 30mg Oxycodoe and basically a salt additive. They do not metabolise into morphine which is what they test for in a standard 5 panel opiate drug test. They would have to order an extended opiate panel to test for synthetic opiates such as oxycodone and hydrocodone.

Does Oxycontin show up on a drug test for opiates?

Ok guys...im sick of seeing people posting on forums acting like they know what theyre talking about. So, I'll make it short and sweet. "oxycodone" is sometimes classified as an opiate, but its truly and opioid. Simple 5 or 6 panel drug tests DO NOT test for oxycodone and therefore, will not yield a positive result in the "opiate" section of the screen. However, a 10 or 12 panel drug test (depending on the brand) does specifically test for oxycodone, so if in your system, it will show a positive result in the section labeled "oxy"

What mg of Oxycontin is comparable to 30 mg of codeine?

Hydrocodone and Oxycontin contain the same active drug... oxycodone. So 10mg of Hydrocodone and 10 mg of Oxycontin have the same amount of Oxycodone (10 mg) in them. The only difference is that the Hydrocodone contains Tylenol in addition to the Oxycodone. So on the Hydrocodone bottle it might say something like 10/500. So the Hyrocodone in that instance has 10 mg of oxycodone and 500mg of Tylenol.


Does percodan make 10-325 strength?

According to Nursing 2011 Drug Handbook, the answer to Percodan-325, the answer is no. Percodan is a compound of two different formulas for oxycodone to equal 4.88 mg of oxycodone (again two formulas) and 325 mg of aspirin. Percocet is a compound of oxycodone and acetaminophen (Tylenol) and is manufactured in varying strengths of both oxycodone and acetaminophen.


What is the difference between loritab and oxycodone?

Lorcet is a brand name drug consisting of 10 mg of hydrocodone and 650 mg of acetaminophen (Tylenol). As a generic it is normally written "hydrocodone/APAP 10/650." Hydrocodone is a semi-synthetic opioid with a potency equal to morphine. Hydrocodone is also found in several other combination drugs including Vicodin, Lortab, Norco, and Vicoprofen. Oxycodone is, like hydrocodone, a semi-synthetic opioid however it is considerably more potent. Oxycodone is found as a single preparation drug (OxyIR), as a combination drug (Percocet, Percodan), and as a controlled-release drug (OxyContin). Under US law Lorcet it a schedule III drug and all drugs containing oxycodone are placed in the more restrictive schedule II.
