Oxycodone is the generic name for OxyContin, although OxyContin is actually a time released version of Oxycodone. This means that instead of the drug being released into your bloodstream from your stomach all at once, it slowly releases it over a period of several hours.

There is no such thing as roxicotin, but there is such thing as Roxicodone, which is a brand name for a preparation containing the opioid analgesic oxycodone. Oxycodone would be the generic name for the opioid analgesic in Roxicodone.

How many oxycodone can you take before it sHow is up in urine test?

"ANY oxycodone (the generic term for Vicodin) will show up in a drug test." The persom who posted this answer is only 1/2 but VERY wrong! Oxycodone is not the generic for Vicone. Oxycodone is a completley different drug and is much stronger than vicodin. Vicodin is made of hydrocodone. Hydrocodone and oxycodone will NOT show up as the same drug. Yes any amount of oxycodone will show up for at leat 3-4 days after taking just one pill.
