Which Is The Strongest And Weakest Out Of Oxycodone, Gabapentin And Hydromorphone?

Hello, I was in the hospital over the weekend with a sprained back. They sent me home with way to many pain pills and I am trying to decipher what is what. I was wanting to know which of these is the strongest and which is the weakest. No, I have not been using all of them. So I have Oxycodone APAP (Percocet) - 10-325 MG, Gabapentin 100MG (Neurontin) and Hydromorphone 4 Mg. (Dilaudid). Which one is strogest to weakest?
