If you have pain every day that lasts for a large part of the day, and the pain is moderate to severe in intensity, OxyContin may be a good choice for you. Only a physician can determine if OxyContin is right to manage your pain. If you only need a pain reliever occasionally and this adequately treats your pain, OxyContin is NOT the right drug for you. If a pain reliever is only needed for a few days, for example following a dental or surgical procedure, OxyContin is not the right drug for you.
