OXYCONTIN
PAIN

†
Oxycodone is a mild analgesic used to relieve moderate to moderately severe pain, such as that associated with bursitis, injuries, dislocations, simple fractures, and neuralgia. The drug is also used in the treatment of postoperative, postextractional, and postpartum pain. Pain of an acute nature appears to be more responsive to therapy with oxycodone than is pain of long standing.
