Oxycodone and Ibuprofen (Oral Route)
Drug Information provided by: MicromedexUS Brand Names

Description
Ibuprofen and oxycodone combination is used to relieve pain.
Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in this combination to relieve inflammation, swelling, and pain.
The oxycodone is a narcotic analgesic that acts in the central nervous system to relieve pain. If oxycodone is used for a long time, it may become habit-forming (causing mental or physical dependence). Physical dependence may lead to withdrawal side effects when you stop taking the medicine. Since ibuprofen and oxycodone combination is only used for short-term (7 days or less) relief of pain, physical dependence probably will not occur.
This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.
This product is available in the following dosage forms:
- Tablet
