Q: Why is oxycodone 30 mg not available in the last few month?
Two major producer of oxycodone had their product lines yanked by the FDA because of quality concerns. This has put a severe crimp in the supply of this drug. Because the product is so tightly monitored (because of its narcotic status) it's hard for other manufacturers to ramp up supply quickly. It's possible, therefore, that it could be months before the product is fully available again. If you can't get oxycodone you might consider trying oxycontin - a time release form of the same drug. Good luck!
