Default Need info about Tylox please!!

I posted on the pill id board about this, but no responses. I have gotten percoset for my back before, usually it's 5mgs oxcodone, 325 tylenol, and in a pill form. This time I got generic Tylox, which says it is 5mgs oxycodone, 500mgs tylenol, and it is in a capsule form. I realize oxycodone is oxycodone, but what if any difference does it make that this is in a cpasule instead of a pill?

Thanks,
Lil

None, both are an instant release form of Oxycodone.

Oh, and Oxycodone is not just Oxycodone, there is a controlled release form which is the generic of Oxycontin, and lasts 12 hours, then there is the Oxycodone IR (immediate release) as in these pills, that can be taken every 4 to 6 hours.

My information is not guaranteed correct. I do not get them right all the time, but I do enjoy the hunt~
