Opioid: It is an opioid medication. Same as oxycodone or oxycontin. Has high addiction potential. Best used as a short-term intervention for non-cancer pain. Long-term use is best avoided (due to addiction potential) except in case of chronic cancer-related pain. Avoid taking without prescription from your own doctor for any indication. Hope this helps.
