The clinicians in this practice have been reviewing its prescribing of oxycodone modified release tablets. This is to ensure that our patients receive the best treatment offering the best value to the NHS. As a result we have changed your future prescriptions to Oxypro® prolonged release tablets.
This is exactly the same medication and strength, only the brand name has changed. Please be reassured that this is a simple routine change. You should not notice any difference in effect or any adverse effects as a result of this change. However if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact the practice if you would like to speak to the practice pharmacist or your GP.
Your repeat prescription has been updated for you the next time you order your medication. Please complete your current supply of medication before starting Oxypro® to help reduce waste.
