Oxycodone 80mg is a potent opioid medication. Oxycodone is a strong analgesic (pain reliever) that is used to manage severe pain when other treatments are inadequate or not tolerated. The 80mg dosage refers to the strength of each tablet or dose of the medication, containing 80 milligrams of oxycodone.
Oxycodone works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain, spinal cord, and other areas of the body, reducing the perception of pain. It is often prescribed for conditions such as cancer pain, post-surgical pain, and chronic pain that requires around-the-clock management.
