About

Oxycodone is another opioid analgesic used to manage moderate to severe pain. It's commonly prescribed when other pain medications haven't provided sufficient relief. Like Opana, oxycodone works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, altering how the body perceives and responds to pain.
