Best Answer

It depends on what you mean by "worse". Oxycodone and codeine are very different painkillers. Oxycodone is more powerful than codeine. The first is more addictive than the latter. However 30mg codeine will cause more stomach upset and constipation than Oxycodone. Ask your doctor and or pharmacist.

Codeine is what is known as a pro-drug. The codeine by itself has very little, if any action at all until it undergoes first-pass metabolism via your liver. An enzyme system known as the Cytochrome P450 system. Codeine is conjugated with glucuronic acid to Codeine-6-glucuronide, and 5% of the dose is O-De-methylated to Morphine. Those are responsible for the analgesia and other effects.

The popular opioid Vicodin was named as VI (roman numerals for 6) Codin (Codeine) since it is roughly 6 times stronger than codeine.

Here is a small chart of common opioids and respective strengths compared to Morphine

Codeine .05

Dextropropoxyphene(Darvon) .05 - .07

Tramadol(Ultram) .10

Pethidine(Demerol) .36

Hydrocodone(Vicodin) .6

Morphine(oral) 1

Oxycodone(Percocet) 1.5 - 2

Methadone 3-4

Morphine(IV/IM) 4

Diacetylmorphine(Heroin) 1.9 - 4.3

Hydromorphone(Dilaudid) 5

Oxymorphone(Opana) 7

Buprenorphine(Suboxone) 40

Fentanyl(Duragesic) 50 - 100

Carfentanil (Wildnil) 10,000 - 100,000 : Use for Tranquilizing Large Animals - Not for human use.

What is stronger Oxycontin or oxycodone?

Oxycontin and Oxycodone are the same thing. Oxycontin is made from Oxycodone. Oxycontin is time released so it continuously release the medicine and oxycodone is not time released. It depends on how much of each you take. Say if you take a 40 MG Oxycontin pill and and 4 Oxycodone 10/325, you feel the effects of the 4 oxycodone pills because the Oxycontin time released but they are the same thing. Whichever one you take more MG of will be stronger.


What is stronger oxycodone apap 10-650 mg or oxycodone hcl 15 mg qua?

the oxy 15 is stronger. the 650 you see is only acetaminophen which is only Tylenol. acetaminophen increases the effect of oxycodone so if you want just take a Tylenol with the oxycodone 15. However, depending on the pain, the one containing acetaminphen could be more beneficial for things having to do with nerves or inflamation.
