Suggest Dosage For Oxycodone

Doc i need to ask you a question about my pain meds. I am prescribed 40 mgs of oxycontin 2 times a day. Also prescribed 30 ngs of oxycodone 4 times s day. I am going through s custody case for my youngest son. I took a urine screen and a hair folicle test for the court. They are saying my levels are to high? Which is not possible. I take my meds as prescribed. Could u tell me what my levels ishould be the medication im on. I think they didn t know that the extended release eith make it seem high. Also i have been on this medication for 10 yrs. Any information you could supply would b greatly appreciated. Please call or email me and let me know what you fin.d out thank you Sincerely, Sean Conville Cell 514-285-0061. Zconville99@gmail.

Ok, the usual dose for oxycodone runs between a total of 30 to 60 mg a day. The amount you are on is much more than the usual dose. More discussion can be had iwth a direct consult directed to me. but
cannot say in your particular case, but generally, this informaiton would apply in most situations.
