Is There Any Substitute Medication For Oxycodone?

Hi.. I m currently prescribed oxycodone 10mg 5 times a day. I really need an extended release, but that would be oxycontin, which without prescription drug coverage, I can t afford. Is there another pain med in an ER, that would be affordable? I currently pay $60 a month for the 150 10 mg of generic oxycodone? I m a liver transplant patient that is on disability and pain management for RA & other issues. Thank you.
