About

Oxycodone is available in various formulations, including immediate-release and extended-release formulations. Immediate-release oxycodone is typically taken every 4 to 6 hours as needed for pain, while extended-release formulations are designed to provide around-the-clock pain relief and are taken less frequently, often every 12 hours.
