5mg is a very low dose. But it is strong, oxycodone is about 40-50% stronger than morphine, and is 8 times more easily absorbed than morphine. I currently take 30 mg and you have to be careful. It will make you sick.

Wow....5 mg. seems pretty strong to me. I can't imagine 30 mg. But I realize it's like with any other narcotic. Your body develops a tolerance and it requires higher and higher doses to attain the same effect as what they lower doses used to provide.

no 5mg is made end of story Actually this is incorrect, there is a 5mg just not in the US its used in UK and Canada. Please research your answer or don't answer if you don't know its found quite easy on a Google search... Anyway 5mg Oxycontin is 5mg of oxycodone just in a time released form, Oxycodone is the main ingredient in Oxycontin which is basically just a time released version of the Oxycodone to make it easy. Supposedly it will release 5mg of oxycodone into your system over an 8-12 hour period.

The synthetic opiates are significantly stronger than the naturally occurring ones. Morphine and Codeine are natural. Oxycodone is synthetic.

What is stonger oxycocdone or morphine sulfate?

Orally, 10mg of oxycodone is considered equivalent to 15mg or morphine sulfate but everyone is different. Oxycodone isn't usually used medically by injection so a conversion is unavailable. 5mg morphine by injection is equal to about 15mg of oral morphine. 5mg morphine is probably about equal to 5mg oxycodone by injection. So orally, oxy. is stronger!


What is the difference between oxycodone 5mg and oxy codone 5mg325mg?

Oxycontin is time-release oxycodone. so, oxycodone would be instant release. YOu can scrape the coating off the OC 80s to make them instant, but ir you have an OP 80 then its stuck as extended release cuz purdue is replacing their stock with "unabusable pills"


Oxycodine or Percocet which is stronger?

I think you mean oxycodone. Percocet IS oxycodone (5mg) and acetaminophen (325mg). So youre question can't be answered.


Does oxycodone 5mg imm rel capsules have Tylenol in it?

No, it has nothing more than oxycodone. I have an allergy to Tylenol so this is what i was prescribed while I awaited surgery. Percocet has Tylenol, Percodan has aspirin and these are just oxycodone!!


How strong is percocet 5-325?

It is not strong, although a good pain reliever. 5 is the percocet (oxycodon) and 325 is Acetaminophen (Tylenol). Oxycodone is one of your stronger pain medications, so take with food to prevent a queasy stomach.
