Oxycontin OC 5 mg Medicine

Oxycontin OC 5mg is classified as an opioid analgesic and serves as a controlled-release formulation containing the semi-synthetic opioid oxycodone. Its mechanism of action within the body mirrors that of other opioid analgesics by interacting with the opioid receptors located in the brain and spinal cord. The efficacy of these medications is particularly pronounced when the body experiences pain. The binding process initiates a series of intracellular molecular events that culminate in the desired analgesic effect.
