No, it is not an NSAID which is the nonsteroidal antiflammatory drug. NSAIDS do not contain narcotic meds as a rule, unless the doctor prescribes that script in such a fashion. Some of the most common NSAIDS are Advil, Motrin (ibuprofen generic name), Naproxen and Alleve.
Some can be purchased over the counter (OTC) or be prescribed by a physician depending on the strength of the NSAID.

Oxycodone and oxycodone-acetaminophen (often referred to by its brand name, Percocet) are not the same.

Therefore, oxycodone-acetaminophen contains both active ingredients, whereas oxycodone alone does not.
