A member asked:
I am taking oxcycontin 10 mg ir 4 times a day. after the last dose h ow long will it stay in my system? what kind of after life does it have?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
About 4 hours: the half life is about 4 hours. This is why you are taking them 4 times a day. they do not build on each other. Do not take more than prescribed as this can be very dangerous.
