OK, I found a better explanation as to the difference between oxycodone, roxicet and roxicodone...
The difference between roxicet and roxicodone is that roxicet contains Acetaminophen. Roxicodone has straight oxycodone in it, no fillers or buffers, or things to %?#$$ up your stomach.

Anything that ends with "cet" contains acetaminophen (APAP), like Roxicet, Percocet, etc..They still have the active narcotic in them but are mixed w/ acetaminophen. No "cet" and you are getting the narcotic only.
The "cr" after some of the oxycodone stands for controlled release...the "er" stands for extended release. Addicts usually don't like these as the effects are distributed over time, as compared to a sudden high.
