Description
OxyContin
OxyContin is one of the most commonly abused prescription drugs. The drug’s controlled-release formula provides chronic pain relief for up to 12 hours. Many people bypass the time-release action by crushing and snorting OxyContin or by dissolving the tablets in water and injecting the solution. This allows the user to achieve the full effect of the drug at once.
