Oxycodone is used to relieve moderate to severe pain. It belongs to the group of medicines called narcotic analgesics (pain medicines). Oxycodone acts on the central nervous system (CNS) to relieve pain.

Oxycodone extended-release capsules or tablets should not be used if you need pain medicine for just a short time, such as when recovering from surgery. Do not use this medicine to relieve mild pain, or in situations when non-narcotic medication is effective. This medicine should not be used to treat pain that you only have once in a while or "as needed".

When oxycodone is used for a long time, it may become habit-forming, causing mental or physical dependence. However, people who have continuing pain should not let the fear of dependence keep them from using narcotics to relieve their pain. Mental dependence (addiction) is not likely to occur when narcotics are used for this purpose. Physical dependence may lead to withdrawal side effects if treatment is stopped suddenly. However, severe withdrawal side effects can usually be prevented by gradually reducing the dose over a period of time before treatment is stopped completely.

This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription. Xtampza® ER is available only under a restricted distribution program called the Opioid Analgesic REMS (Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy) program.

Treatment of serious bone and joint infections caused by susceptible Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Used as an adjunct to other appropriate anti-infectives.

Treatment of serious intra-abdominal infections (including peritonitis) caused by susceptible Enterobacter, E. coli, or Klebsiella. Used as an adjunct to other appropriate anti-infectives.

Treatment of CNS infections (meningitis) caused by susceptible gram-negative bacteria.

Aminoglycosides should not be used alone for treatment of meningitis; usually used as an adjunct to other anti-infectives in initial treatment. Used in conjunction with ampicillin for initial empiric treatment of neonatal Streptococcus agalactiae (group B streptococci) meningitis or for Listeria monocytogenes meningitis.

Treatment of serious respiratory tract infections caused by susceptible S. aureus, Enterobacter, E. coli, Klebsiella, Serratia, or Ps. aeruginosa. Used as an adjunct to an appropriate β-lactam (e.g., ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, cefepime, piperacillin and tazobactam, ticarcillin and clavulanate) or carbapenem (e.g., imipenem, meropenem) for empiric treatment of nosocomial pneumonia.

Administered by oral inhalation via nebulization for management of bronchopulmonary Ps. aeruginosa infections in cystic fibrosis patients ≥6 years of age. Safety and efficacy not established in pediatric patients < 6 years of age, in patients with forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) <25% or >75% of the predicted value, or in patients colonized with Burkholderia cepacia (formerly Ps. cepacia).

Treatment of septicemia caused by susceptible E. coli, Klebsiella, or Ps. aeruginosa.

Used as an adjunct to an appropriate β-lactam (e.g., ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, cefepime, piperacillin and tazobactam, ticarcillin and clavulanate) or carbapenem (e.g., imipenem, meropenem) for empiric treatment of life-threatening septicemia.

Treatment of serious skin and skin structure infections caused by susceptible S. aureus, Enterobacter, E. coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, or Ps. aeruginosa. Used as an adjunct to other appropriate anti-infectives.

Treatment of serious complicated and recurrent UTIs caused by susceptible S. aureus, Citrobacter, Enterobacter, E. coli, Klebsiella, Proteus, Providencia, Serratia, or Ps. aeruginosa. Used as an adjunct to other appropriate anti-infectives.

Not indicated for uncomplicated UTIs unless causative organism is resistant to other less-toxic alternatives.

Empiric anti-infective therapy of presumed bacterial infections in febrile neutropenic patients. Used in conjunction with an appropriate antipseudomonal cephalosporin (e.g., ceftazidime, ceftriaxone), extended-spectrum penicillin (e.g., ticarcillin, piperacillin and tazobactam, ticarcillin and clavulanate), or carbapenem (e.g., imipenem, meropenem).

Consult published protocols for the treatment of infections in febrile neutropenic patients for specific recommendations regarding selection of the initial empiric regimen, when to change the initial regimen, possible subsequent regimens, and duration of therapy in these patients. Consultation with an infectious disease expert knowledgeable about infections in immunocompromised patients also is advised.
