Oxycodone is a semi-synthetic opioid that treats moderate to severe pain. It is available in two forms: extended-release and immediate-release. The immediate form acts between 15 minutes to 6 hours of consumption. In other words, opioids are a well-known prescription medication for treating moderate to severe pain. It works by acting on the body's opioid receptors, relieving pain and providing a relaxed and tranquil feeling. It is because oxycodone stimulates the u-opioid receptor. When a patient consumes it by mouth, the impact is nearly 1.5 times that of morphine.
