Is oxycodone stronger than Darvocet

Answer 1

Oxycodone vs oxycodone with acetaminophine are essentially the same thing. The narcotic in both medications is the oxycodone, the only difference between the two is the addition of Tylenol (aka acetaminophen). The addition of Tylenol does not necessarily make the combo drug more powerful than the straight oxycodone, but is an adjunctive therapy so to speak. The Tylenol can enhance the pain relief of the oxycodone by working with the oxycodone at pain receptors. So to answer the question, no - oxycodone is not stronger than oxycodone acetaminophen combo.

Answer 2

yes, oxycodone is said to be nearly equal mg to mg with morphine in pain relief. oxycodone is only slightly weaker than morphine.

darvocet is a very very weak opioid, less potent than codeine, is said to be 1/2 potency to codeine mg to mg.

Answer 3

yes, my Dr. put me on oxycontin and I was like a zombie. I asked her to take me off of them and give me something else.
