Overview
0xyc0d0ne 30 mg is a powerful opioid pain medication used to treat moderate to severe pain that requires continuous, around-the-clock management. It belongs to the narcotic (opioid) analgesic class and works by altering how the brain and nervous system respond to pain.
Because of its potency and potential for addiction, 0xyc0d0ne 30 mg is classified as a Schedule II controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).

What is 0xyc0d0ne 30 mg Used For?
0xyc0d0ne 30 mg is prescribed to manage:
- Severe acute pain (post-surgery, trauma, or injury)
- Chronic pain conditions (such as arthritis, cancer pain, or nerve pain)
- Pain not controlled by non-opioid or weaker opioid medications
It may be used alone or in combination with other pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen.
How 0xyc0d0ne 30 mg Works
0xyc0d0ne acts on mu-opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord to block pain signals and alter emotional responses to pain.
It provides fast relief (typically within 15–30 minutes) and lasts about 4–6 hours. For this reason, it’s known as an immediate-release (IR) opioid.
Dosage and Administration
- Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
- Usually taken every 4 to 6 hours as needed for pain.
- Swallow the tablet whole with water.
- Do not crush, chew, or dissolve the tablet — this can cause rapid drug release and may result in fatal overdose.
- Avoid alcohol or sedatives while using 0xyc0d0ne.
Note: 0xyc0d0ne 30 mg is for patients already tolerant to opioid therapy and should not be used as a first-choice pain reliever.
Common Side Effects
- Nausea or vomiting
- Constipation
- Drowsiness or dizziness
- Headache
- Sweating or flushing
- Itching or dry mouth
These effects often decrease as your body adjusts to the medication.
Serious Side Effects
Seek medical help immediately if you experience:
- Slow or shallow breathing
- Blue lips or fingernails
- Confusion, hallucinations, or extreme drowsiness
- Fainting, weak pulse, or slow heartbeat
- Seizures or muscle stiffness
- Severe dizziness or loss of consciousness
0xyc0d0ne can depress breathing, which can be fatal — especially in elderly, debilitated, or respiratory-impaired patients.
Addiction, Misuse, and Overdose Warning
⚠️ Boxed Warning:
0xyc0d0ne has a high potential for abuse, addiction, and overdose, even at prescribed doses. Misuse can lead to fatal respiratory depression.
Never share this medicine with others, especially someone with a history of drug abuse or addiction.
Overdose Symptoms
- Extreme sleepiness
- Slow or stopped breathing
- Pinpoint pupils
- Cold, clammy skin
- Loss of consciousness
➡️ Call emergency services (911) immediately.
If available, administer naloxone (Narcan) — an opioid overdose reversal medication.
Drug Interactions
Avoid combining 0xyc0d0ne with:
- Other opioids (hydrocodone, morphine, tramadol)
- Benzodiazepines (Xanax, Valium, Ativan)
- Alcohol, muscle relaxants, or sedatives
- Antidepressants, antipsychotics, or seizure medications
- CYP3A4 inhibitors (such as ketoconazole or clarithromycin)
These combinations can dangerously increase the risk of sedation, coma, or death.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
- Pregnancy: Prolonged 0xyc0d0ne use during pregnancy can cause neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) in newborns.
- Breastfeeding: 0xyc0d0ne passes into breast milk and may cause breathing problems or extreme sleepiness in infants.
➤ Avoid breastfeeding while using this medicine.
Storage and Disposal
- Store at room temperature (20–25°C / 68–77°F).
- Keep away from moisture, heat, and light.
- Store securely — even one dose can be fatal to a child.
- Dispose of unused tablets through a drug take-back program or flush them if no program is available.
