Default Tal...I don't know who is taking it, but it is very addictive too.

Tal.

I found this online.

"The following adverse effects occur less frequently with opioid analgesics and include those reported in OxyContin clinical trials, whether related or not to oxycodone.

General and CNS: dysphoria, euphoria, anxiety, depression, depersonalization, nervousness, agitation, hyperkinesia, hypotonia, twitching, tremor, speech disorder, vision abnormalities, hypesthesia, paresthesia, thought abnormalities, abnormal dreams, hallucinations, confusion, abnormal gait, insomnia, vertigo and tinnitus.

Cardiovascular: tachycardia, palpitation, faintness, syncope, vasodilation, postural hypotension, chest pain, ST depression and migraine.

Respiratory: bronchospasm, pharyngitis and dyspnea.

Gastrointestinal: dysphagia, anorexia, taste alterations, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dyspepsia, eructation, flatulence, hiccups, gastritis, increased appetite and stomatitis.

Genitourinary: urinary retention or hesitancy, dysuria, polyuria, hematuria, antidiuretic effects and impotence.

Dermatologic: urticaria, exfoliative dermatitis, other skin rashes and edema.

Other: lymphadenopathy, malaise, chills, fever, dehydration and thirst.

OxyContin tablets should not be broken, chewed or crushed. "


I found the above information on RXmed.com. I cannot vouch for the validity Tal. I think you should call your doctor.

Kindest wishes,
