Oxycontin is the time-release form of oxycodone, an opioid analgesic usually prescribed for chronic and severe pain.
Because it contains such high amounts of oxycodone, it has become one of the most abused painkillers on the market today.
Prescription drug abuse is currently one of the biggest killers in Ontario, with about ten people dying accidentally from prescription opioids every week, often in the prime of their lives.
Trafalgar offers oxycontin addiction treatment as part of our comprehensive addiction treatment programs.
