To keep it very simple and non-technical hydrocodone is a fast acting pain med. It's mixed with
acetaminophen when RXd. Oxycodone is a much stronger pain med and can be mixed with acetaminophen as in
percocets or can be RXd by itself. Oxy can be RXd in either a fast acting or time released form. Hope that helps. God bless.
