What Does Extended Release Mean in Medications? Over-the-counter pills come in many formulas, such as time release, controlled release, extended release, delayed release or sustained release. How does time release work, and what are the advantages and disadvantages to it? What should you know before choosing a standard or time release formula?
Yes, mpvt is right, it comes down to the release of the medication, there is Oxycodone controlled release, or extended release, which is taken every 12 hours, and the generic for Oxycontin. Then there is an Oxycodone immediate release, taken every 6 or so hours. So the main difference is just in how long the med lasts.
