Yes, you can. Some people may not have a large enough tolerance developed like the people it has been prescribed for and an opiate overdose leads to respiratory failure so you will stop breathing and then you're heart will stop beating since it relaxes the diaphragm so much if you are not used to large doses of Oxycontin. Please stay safe and hope this answers your question.
