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.
is oxycodone 10-325MG stronger then oxycodone 5-3 Mg
Yes, both Oxycodone HCl 30 mg tablets and Roxicodone 30 mg tablets contain the same active ingredient, oxycodone hydrochloride, at the same dosage strength of 30 mg. Roxicodone is a brand name for oxycodone immediate-release tablets.
An M30 pill typically refers to a 30 mg dose of oxycodone, while 16 mg of Dilaudid (hydromorphone) is a strong opioid as well. Generally, oxycodone is considered to have a lower potency compared to hydromorphone on a milligram-to-milligram basis. Therefore, 16 mg of Dilaudid is likely to be stronger than a 30 mg M30 pill of oxycodone. However, individual responses to opioids can vary significantly.
Oxycodone 10 mg is a stronger dose of the active ingredient in Percocet, which typically contains 5 mg, 7.5 mg, or 10 mg of oxycodone combined with acetaminophen. However, the strength comparison depends on the amount of oxycodone in each specific Percocet formulation. If comparing oxycodone 10 mg directly to Percocet containing 10 mg of oxycodone, they have the same opioid strength, but Percocet includes acetaminophen, which adds to its overall potency for pain relief.
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.
Of the manufacturers of the 30 mg oxycodone which has the highest number
need a dr near 32218 that gives you 30 mg. oxycodone IR
30 mg oxycodone
Everyone is different , but generally oxycodone is better.
Dilaudid (hydromorphone) is generally considered to be stronger than Percocet (which contains oxycodone and acetaminophen). An 8 mg dose of Dilaudid is roughly equivalent to about 30 mg of oxycodone, making it more potent than 15 mg of Percocet. However, individual responses to medications can vary, so it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
That is an oxycodone 30 mg tablet manufactured by Actavis.
It most definitely is why do you think it says 30mg instead of 20mg
