OxyContin

OxyContin is a prescription medication that contains oxycodone, a powerful opioid pain reliever. It is designed to treat moderate to severe pain, particularly for those with chronic conditions. OxyContin is time-released, providing long-lasting pain relief. However, due to its potency, there is a risk of addiction, misuse, and overdose. Concerns about these risks have led to increased regulation and scrutiny of its prescription and use. Patients are advised to use it strictly according to their doctor’s instructions to minimize risks and ensure effective pain management.
