To provide for the withdrawal of the drug OxyContin from the commercial 
market. 
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 
MAY 5, 2005
Mr. LYNCH introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee 
on Energy and Commerce 
A BILL 
To provide for the withdrawal of the drug OxyContin from 
the commercial market.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, 
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE. 
This Act may be cited as the ‘‘Act to Ban 
OxyContin’’. 
SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 
The Congress finds as follows: 
(1) The drug OxyContin has proven to be high-
ly addictive.
(2) The use of over-the-counter narcotics such 
as OxyContin has risen to as much as 9 percent 
among students in middle schools and high schools. 
(3) Overdoses of OxyContin have increased by 
450 percent in recent years. 
(4) The abuse of the drug, which is prevalent 
in economically depressed areas, has been strongly 
linked to criminal activity and has in some cases 
overwhelmed local law enforcement. 
(5) Over 1.5 million tablets of the drug were 
stolen from pharmacies between 2001 and 2003. 
(6) The active ingredient of OxyContin, 
oxycodone, is twice as strong as morphine. 
(7) OxyContin’s time-released effect, an impor-
tant element of its pharmaceutical use, is easily ne-
gated by abusers to achieve a heroin-like effect. 
(8) The manufacturer of the drug has been 
cited twice for using negligent and inappropriate ad-
vertising, downplaying the potentially fatal risks of 
abuse. 
(9) OxyContin is the first brand-name product 
targeted for monitoring by the Drug Enforcement 
Administration. 
(10) Health care professionals, such as phar-
macists and physicians, have been among those ar-
rested and indicted for distributing the drug in a 
nonofficial capacity. 
(11) The burdens of this drug to the public 
health outweigh its potential therapeutic benefits, 
and given that alternative pain medicines and meth-
ods are widely available, OxyContin should be 
banned. 
SEC. 3. WITHDRAWAL OF DRUG OXYCONTIN FROM COM-
MERCIAL MARKET. 
Effective upon the expiration of 45 days after the 
date of the enactment of this Act, the approved application 
under section 505(b) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cos-
metic Act for controlled-release oxycodone hydrochloride, 
which drug is marketed as OxyContin, is deemed to have 
been withdrawn under section 505(e) of such Act.
