Question 1

how long does one 15 mg oxycodone dose to leave urine?

Accepted Answer

2-4 days: depending on how you metabolize it.  The larger question is what is behind what you are asking.  I would guess that you are being drug tested.  If you are in a position where drug testing is possible, yet you still take a drug that is NOT prescribed for you, with the possibility of getting into trouble, perhaps even going to jail, if you test positive, to me that means a drug problem.

Question 2

how can i comfortably get off of oxycodone? dose isn't high enough to warrant suboxone. past benzodiazepine dependencey, so i won't use those either.

Accepted Answer

Suboxone: Suboxone comes in low enough doses to get you off  oxy. It remains your best bet along with substance addiction counseling and support groups. See a certified Suboxone prescriber for a consultation at least. I am one and i frequently help people get off oxycodone.

Question 3

what's a good starter dose for roxicodone (oxycodone)?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Under the care of a physician who is familiar with opioid medications and provides the appropriate education on their use this dose may be as low as 5mg.  Always start low and slowly increase as needed under the direction of your physician.  Medications should never be altered or changed without physician direction.

Question 4

is 35mg of oxycodone a high dose?

Accepted Answer

Oxycodone: Oxycodone is a powerful opioid.  It is used to treat moderate to severe pain.  It comes with different dosages.  35mg of oxycodone is quite high.  Please see a doctor before you start taking any narcotic.

Question 5

what is a normal starting dose of roxicodone (oxycodone) for chronic pain?

Accepted Answer

No standard answer: There is no specific starting dose although 5 mg is common. This medication is most intended for short term pain or for breakthrough pain.

Question 6

what dose of oxycodone would have the same pain relief effects as one dose of fentora 800mcg?

Accepted Answer

It depends: Even among experts the notion of opiate equivalences can be considered controversial especially if one becomes overly specific.   Genetic and other contextual variable including the amount and duration all play a role.   This is not a question for you to try and figure out.  It is challenging enough for your physician!

Question 7

how long should i wait to take suboxone after my last dose of oxycodone? i can't wait 24 hrs.

Accepted Answer

If you are dependent: on oxycodone, and you take Suboxone BEFORE you are in active withdrawal, you will very much wish you had waited!!  SUboxone will cause precipitated withdrawal in people who are not already in withdrawal, and precipitated withdrawal is far more severe than naturally developing withdrawal, and can actually be life-threatening, with seizures, delirium and very very severe withdrawal symptoms.

Question 8

how long would it take oxycodone to leave your system if it was a low dose of 5 mg i have only been taking it about  2 months periodically for pain?

Accepted Answer

3-5 days: The drug will likely be out of your system 3-5 days after the last dose. You may consult this site for info:

For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 9

i have 7.5/325 oxycodone for pain. i hit the 4000 apap max for daily dose yesterday but stayed up all night. when is it safe to take more and not od?

Accepted Answer

Hmmm: 12-13 pills a day and you're worried about acetometophen overdose.  You are addicted to opiods and experiencing increased pain due to this.  Get help or you'll soon be wondering why 20-30 pills a day  isn't enough

Question 10

if someone took oxycodone 6 times a day for many months then started skipping three consecutive doses of the regular six. so only taking it half the day and skipping half the day, would this produce any odd effects because of the long gap in between?

Accepted Answer

: The best thing you can do if pain is minimal is to continue to decrease the dosages. This drug can be highly addictive and it seems with 6 doses a day you may be on your way. Cut back now and contact your PCP for further advice.
