I take prescribed Oxycontin and have for a couple years now. In fact, I'm on my way to my doctors appointment in about 15 minutes. If this drug is not taken as prescribed it is very dangerous. It is time-released and many users crush open the pill and release the narcotic ingredient at once. They come in 10mg, 20mg, 40mg, 80mg and a discontinued 160mg for obvious reasons. If you crush an 80mg tablet you are releasing the equivalent of 16 standard strength percocets. This is the problem.

Oxycontin is medical heroin...nothing else.
