Oxy is the term used to describe a number of opiate based prescription pain medications including Oxycodone and Oxycontin. Both of these as well as other opiate medications can be very highly addictive and dangerous if they are abused or if the user becomes addicted to the medication as a result of prescribed medical use. Oxycontin addiction can lead to overdose, coma and even death if it is left untreated but there is hope. Oxy rehab centers provide safe, effective treatment for addiction to various opiates including Oxycontin, Oxycodone, Roxicodone and other prescription medications.
