If you got the OxyContin from a legitimate pharmacy, ask the pharmacist to verify that it is extended-release oxycodone.  If you got it from some other source, I would have no way of knowing.  Getting OxyContin from any source other than a reputable pharmacy is extremely risky because you have no way of knowing what is actually in the pill.

If it has any writing at all you could look it up on WebMD under the section called pill identifier.They ask for number or letters, color, and shape. Good luck.  Scooter
