Oxycodone 40mg is a powerful prescription opioid used to treat moderate to severe pain, often for patients with chronic pain conditions. It works by altering how the brain and nervous system perceive pain. Due to its high potential for misuse, addiction, and overdose, it should only be used as directed by a healthcare provider. Common side effects include drowsiness, constipation, nausea, dizziness, and respiratory depression. Misuse of oxycodone can be fatal, so it’s important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and avoid combining it with alcohol or other sedatives.
