OxyContin Side Effects

OxyContin side effects are so dangerous that a former OxyContin worker from Purdue Pharma claims he was fired over it. The former employee has filed a lawsuit against the OxyContin makers, claiming his complaints over OxyContin flaws that could possibly cause OxyContin side effects resulted in company pressure for him to stay quiet. Purdue has been criticized for over-advertising OxyContin for financial reasons while not emphasizing the OxyContin side effects if not taken properly.

Due to the dangerous OxyContin side effects, the FFDA has now required that OxyContin labeling reflect strengthened warnings and precautions. The strongest FDA warning, called a black box warning will now be found on OxyContin labeling to reduce the risk of OxyContin being prescribed inappropriately and having OxyContin side effects suffered because of it. Due to the quick popularity of OxyContin, the drug became the number one prescribed Schedule II narcotic in the U.S., allowing some critics to believe that OxyContin side effects were not communicated to patients as well because it became a more common prescription.
