Brief Answer: no different drugs Detailed Answer: Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic No oxycontin and endone contain oxycodone. Oxycodone and morphine belong to the same class or family of drugs but they are not the same. Similar but there are differences between them. There are site differences in the mode of action and metabolism They belong to the class of drugs called opiates or opioids.
