What Is Oxycodone? Understanding OxyContin and Percocet
Oxycodone is an opioid analgesic that changes how the brain and nervous system respond to pain. OxyContin is an extended-release formulation of oxycodone, while Percocet combines oxycodone with acetaminophen.
Physical dependence can develop even when a medication is taken as directed, but dependence alone does not necessarily mean addiction. Addiction involves patterns of use that become difficult to control despite harmful consequences.
Signs of Oxycodone Addiction: Physical and Psychological Symptoms
Common signs of oxycodone misuse and addiction may include physical and psychological changes that affect everyday life.
Physical Signs and Symptoms
- Needing larger doses to achieve the same effect
- Drowsiness, confusion, and difficulty concentrating
- Nausea, constipation, and other gastrointestinal issues
- Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when not using oxycodone
Psychological Symptoms
- Intense cravings and difficulty concentrating
- Taking more oxycodone than prescribed or seeking prescriptions inappropriately
- Anxiety, depression, and mood changes
- Losing interest in work, school, or previously enjoyed activities
These signs can vary from person to person. A clinical assessment can help determine whether professional treatment may be appropriate.
Oxycodone Side Effects and Long-Term Health Risks
Oxycodone can cause side effects such as drowsiness, nausea, constipation, and impaired alertness. Long-term misuse may contribute to physical dependence, tolerance, persistent fatigue, and difficulties with concentration.
Percocet contains acetaminophen, and taking too much acetaminophen can increase the risk of serious liver damage. Combining oxycodone with alcohol or sedatives can increase the risk of severe drowsiness, respiratory depression, and overdose.
Oxycodone Withdrawal Symptoms: What to Expect
Oxycodone withdrawal symptoms may include muscle aches, sweating, chills, nausea, diarrhea, anxiety, insomnia, and intense cravings.
Symptoms may begin within hours of the last dose, but their onset, severity, and duration vary depending on the specific oxycodone product, dosage, duration of use, and overall health. Acute symptoms may improve gradually over several days or longer, while cravings, sleep disturbances, and mood changes can persist beyond the initial withdrawal period.
A medical evaluation can help determine the appropriate level of care. Medically supervised detox provides monitoring and clinical support during withdrawal.

Why Inpatient Treatment Matters for Oxycodone Addiction
Detox alone does not address every factor associated with opioid use disorder. Although detox helps manage withdrawal, ongoing treatment can help clients work on underlying triggers, behavioral patterns, stress, and co-occurring mental health concerns that may contribute to substance use.
Our inpatient residential program offers a structured, live-in environment with ongoing clinical support. Through continued treatment, clients can develop relapse-prevention skills, strengthen coping strategies, and work toward sustained recovery.
Our Inpatient Oxycodone Addiction Treatment Program in Sherman Oaks
Our inpatient program in Sherman Oaks provides structured residential care and individualized treatment plans based on each client’s clinical needs and recovery goals. Treatment includes individual counseling and group therapy to help clients explore personal challenges, identify triggers, develop healthier responses to stress, and build accountability throughout recovery.
Our program also includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based approach that helps clients recognize connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. CBT can help clients develop healthier coping strategies and strengthen their ability to respond to challenging situations without returning to substance use.
How Long Does Inpatient Oxycodone Addiction Treatment Take?
The duration of treatment varies according to individual needs, clinical assessment, and progress. Factors may include the pattern and duration of oxycodone use, overall health, withdrawal risk, and co-occurring conditions.
Some clients may need medically supervised detox before continuing with inpatient residential treatment. Our team will discuss the recommended treatment approach and expected duration following a clinical evaluation.
Does Insurance Cover Oxycodone Addiction Treatment?
Many private health insurance plans may cover oxycodone addiction treatment, including medically supervised detox and inpatient residential care. Coverage depends on the specific policy, plan benefits, eligibility, and medical necessity.
