Roxicodone Concentrate

Pronunciation: ox-ee-KOE-dohn
Generic Name: Oxycodone
Brand Name: Examples include Oxyfast and Roxicodone

Roxicodone Concentrate is used for:

Treating moderate to severe pain. It may be used before surgery to sedate the patient and reduce fear. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Roxicodone Concentrate is a narcotic pain reliever. It works by dulling the pain perception center in the brain. It may also affect other body systems (eg, respiratory and circulatory systems) at higher doses.

Do NOT use Roxicodone Concentrate if:

• you are allergic to any ingredient in Roxicodone Concentrate or any other oxycodone- or morphine-related medicine (eg, codeine)


• you are taking sodium oxybate (GHB) or you have taken furazolidone or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) (eg, phenelzine) within the last 14 days


• you have severe bowel motility problems (eg, paralytic ileus) or severe diarrhea associated with antibiotic use (pseudomembranous colitis)


• you have severely slow or difficult breathing or severe asthma, or you are having an asthma attack

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Roxicodone Concentrate:

Some medical conditions may interact with Roxicodone Concentrate. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

• if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding


• if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement


• if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances


• if you have a history of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or other lung or breathing problems


• if you have a history of recent head injury, increased pressure in the brain, growths in the brain (eg, tumors), or seizures


• if you have a history of heart problems, low blood pressure, liver or kidney problems, an underactive thyroid, adrenal gland problems (eg, Addison disease), stomach or bowel problems, gallbladder problems, inflammation of the pancreas, a blockage of the bladder or bowel, an enlarged prostate, or the blood disease porphyria


• if you have a history of drug or alcohol abuse, mood or mental problems, or suicidal thoughts or behavior

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Roxicodone Concentrate. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

• Cimetidine, furazolidone, MAO inhibitors (eg, phenelzine ), phenothiazines (eg, chlorpromazine), or sodium oxybate (GHB) because the risk of side effects such as severe drowsiness, slow or difficult breathing, confusion, and seizures may be increased


• Buprenorphine, butorphanol, nalbuphine, naltrexone, or pentazocine because the effectiveness of Roxicodone Concentrate may be decreased

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Roxicodone Concentrate may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.
