Oxycodone, is the generic name for a narcotic pain medication in an immediate release form. Some of the brand names of oxycodone are Roxicodone and OxyIR. (for Imediate Release). Some of the doses available are 5, 15 and 30 mg pills. There are forms of oxycodone that are released slowly over an extended period of time, eg, 12 hours. Some names of these preparations are OxyContin, probably the most well known one and comes in tablets of 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 60 or 80 mg. There are other time released products and liquid preparations of Oxycodone as well. These time released doses are designed for use in patieents that are already tolerant to the dose prescribed and are being changed over to a preparation that will cause a more steady blood level. If chewed these pills can release a very large dose of drug at a time, which makes them popular as a drug of abuse and also very dangerous in that it has caused many fatalities when used this way.
Other drugs containing Oxycodone AND Acetaminophen or Aspirin (e.g. Percocet or Percodan) usually contains 5 or 7.5 mg of Oxycodone. However they also contain anywhere from 300 to 700 mg of Acetaminophen or Aspirin in doses that can seriously upset your stomach, lead to heart or kidney problems, and cause permanent liver damage. So if you're using it recreationally, make sure your pills don't contain Acetaminophen or ibuprofen. And if they do, I'd say do not ingest more than 1500 mg of either within a 4 hour period. But I'm not a doctor, its just that when I take say 2000 mg of Acetaminophen that's when I puke, and I'm pretty sure that when you put something in your body and it makes you puke that somethings probably wrong.

What is the difference between oxycodin and mophine?
Morphine is obtained from the latex of opium poppy seed pods. The opiod oxycodone is synthesized from thebaine, another alkaloid found in opium. Oxycodone and morphine differ in their mode of metabolism. Unlike morphine, oxycodone is metabolized by enzymes in the liver that detoxify a number of prescription drugs. One benefit of oxycodone is that it has fewer side effects than morphine. The latter drug brings on a very strong feeling of pleasure and euphoria. There is pleasure after taking oxycodone, but fewer euphoric side effects than from taking morphine. This should cause oxycodone to be less addictive. Street availability is another difference between oxycodone and morphine. Since morphine is so rarely prescribed for home use, it is not commonly sold on the street. There are large numbers of prescriptions filled for oxycodone in the United States. The drug is available in a slow-release form called OxyContin® that is highly popular with recreational drug users.
