Take this medication only as prescribed by your doctor. Take no more of it, no more frequently, and no longer than your doctor has prescribed. This is especially significant for senior people, who may be more susceptible to the effects of pain relievers. If this medication is taken in excess for an extended period, it may become habit-forming (creating mental or physical reliance).
You must understand the rules of the Opioid Analgesic REMS program to prevent oxycodone addiction, abuse, and overuse. This medication should also be accompanied by a medication Guide and a patient information leaflet. Read and follow these directions carefully. Read it again every time you refill your prescription.
