exactly. They are virtually one and the same. oxycodone is the narcotic active ingredient in percocet. IIRC correctly it is synthetic morhpine.

it will definitely heighten the effects but too much will knock you out. make sure you are not driving that nite.

Scarecrow, scarecrow whats that you popping?
A powerful pill they call Oxycontin
But it'so tiny, that it got you dragging
Haven't you heard big things come in small packages
I prefer the orange's with the black O-C
Take to and you cannot move up out ya seat
Some people melt 'em down in a needle and shoot 'em up
Buy I pop 'em with Seroquel like glue, I am stuck
