Brief Answer:
Only available on prescription

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your question. in North XXXXXXX and Europe oxycodone is a controlled substance and so can only be obtained with a script from an MD. there are no other legal medical ways to obtain this drug.

You could try taking acetaminophen alone 1g 6 hourly and add in an antiinflammatory for your pain rather than using a prescription only opiate drug.

I hope this answers your question.

Best wishes
