Oxycodone can stay in your system for between two and five days depending on your metabolic rate. Things that can affect metabolism are the amount and frequency of your drug taking, your body mass (size), your age, your tolerance to drugs or alcohol, your overall health, and how the drugs were taken: Swallowed, inhaled, smoked or injected.
Oxycodone is a narcotic pain reliever, similar to morphine, and is used to treat moderate to severe pain. Because it has an extended release, it is used for round-the-clock pain treatment.
Oxycodone may be habit forming, so should never, ever be taken by someone who has a drug addiction, even if they are clean at that moment. Alcohol should never be drunk while taking oxycodone because that could lead to dangerous side effects and can even result in death. It is important, therefore, to check the ingredients of any other medications that you may be taking, and check food labels, too, to make sure that you don’t inadvertently take any alcohol while on this medication.
Don’t ever take more oxycodone than you have been prescribed, and don’t ever let anyone else take any of your prescription. Oxycodone can inhibit reactions and thinking times, so extreme care should be taken if you need to do anything that requires you to be alert when you are taking this medication.
Because of the nature of this drug, you should never just stop taking your medication or you will suffer unpleasant withdrawal symptoms; talk to your doctor to find out the best way to avoid these.
Never, ever take oxycodone when you are pregnant or breast feeding, otherwise you could harm your baby.
