Roxicodone (oxycodone)
€556.48 – €1,082.70
Roxicodone is the brand name for oxycodone, a strong prescription opioid pain medication used to treat moderate to severe pain. It works by altering the way the brain and nervous system respond to pain, providing effective relief for those with acute or chronic pain.
Roxicodone is available in immediate-release form, which means it provides quick relief but has a short duration of action compared to extended-release formulations (like OxyContin).
How Does Roxicodone Work?
-
Oxycodone is an opioid that binds to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, blocking pain signals and producing feelings of euphoria and relaxation.
-
Immediate-release formulation is designed to release the medication quickly, offering fast pain relief, but it also comes with a high risk of misuse and dependence.
