Difference In Strength/Effectiveness RE Oxynorm 1ml V 5ml
Posted , 1 user is following.
Okay this may be a silly question but is there a major strength or effectiveness difference between the 5 mg/5ml bottle which it says each 5ml contains oxycodone hydrochloride 5mg versus the 1ml/1mg which bottle says each 1ml contains 0.9mg as oxycodene hydrochloride which would equal 4.5 (Slightly less but not considerably so?)
In my mind, the numbers equal out(close enough) and should mean 5ml of either is pretty much the same, right?
I ask because anything with numbers can confuse me, and my mum who the medications for, seems to be experiencing more pain since being prescribed the 1mg/1ml bottle when compared to the 5 mg/5ml bottle, and the agony she's in is making me wonder if its a strength/dosage difference that I'm not understanding.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
