How does it affect your liver to suddenly stop taking oxycodone?

I am not a doctor, but since oxycodone is an instant release pain reliever, more powerful than morphine, stopping it suddenly probably won't do anything to your liver at all. However it may affect your pain level.

Can you take Vicodin and Aleve?
Yes, combining oxycodone and aleve cause no adverse reactions. However, unless you are taking oxycontin, it is more than likely you are taking a preparation of oxycodone and a drug similar to aleve such as acetaminophen (tylenol) or ibuprofen (advil). Your prescription bottle will be labeled with any mixer in the preparation. If it has a mixer in it aleve would probably do little to further relieve pain, and taking aleve on top of a mixer could potentially be hard on your liver. unless you are absolutely positive there is no mixer, I would not suggest taking aleve with oxycodone.

If you have chronic problems with your liver can taking ibuprofen everyday have an affect?
Yes, depending on the dose and frequency taken (over 1200mg daily). It is still preferable to the use of Tylenol, though, which should be avoided in liver dysfunction.
What is more damaging to your liver morphine or oxycodone?
Neither in and of itself is damaging to the liver. Opioids are some of the safest drugs available as far as organ health goes. However, anything taken in excess can be damaging. Sometimes oxycodone is prescribed with Tylenol, and when this is the case it is the Tylenol that can damage the liver, if taken in excess. As always, take these meds as prescribed and you should have no trouble.
