Oxycodone: What Happens If I Miss A Dose
Content provided by Cerner Multum, Inc.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Since oxycodone is sometimes used as needed, you may not be on a dosing schedule. If you are using the medication regularly, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and wait until your next regularly scheduled dose. Do not use extra medicine to make up the missed dose.
 | Extended-release oxycodone is not for use on an as-needed basis for pain. |
