Oxycodone otherwise known as "Oxy" is a prescription drug typically prescribed to those who experience moderate to severe pain. It is easy to become addicted to this particular medication especially if you are not correctly monitored. Like morphine, Oxycodone is also considered an Opioid and can be found in a number of different drugs you may have heard of like:

• Oxycontin (can be prescribed after removing wisdom teeth)
• Percocet's
• Roxicodone

When taking this medication, the side effects can leave you feeling "loopy" and very out of it. These side effects can leave someone who is addicted to oxycodone wanting more. Much like other addictive medications, the withdrawals can be so much that a person will continue to use so they don't feel bad which can lead to several long-term health problems.
