what is the generic brand for oxycontin
Is there a generic equivalent of OxyContin? Actually, oxycodone is available genericallyâjust not in a form that is equivalent to OxyContin. The generic oxycodone on the market is an immediate-release formulation, whereas OxyContin is 12-hour extended-release tablet. Since a pharmacist can only substitute a generic that is identical in activity to the original brand name drug, generic oxycodone, in its current form, cannot be substituted for OxyContin.
