What is Longtec Prolonged release tablets

Longtec Prolonged Release Tablets are a prescription medicine that contain oxycodone hydrochloride, a strong opioid pain reliever. They are used to manage severe, long-lasting pain when other pain treatments may not provide enough relief. The prolonged-release formulation is designed to release oxycodone slowly over time, helping provide continuous pain control for several hours.

Longtec should only be taken under medical supervision because oxycodone can cause side effects such as drowsiness, constipation, nausea, and breathing problems. The tablets should be swallowed whole and not crushed or broken, as this can release too much medicine at once. Patients should follow their prescribed dose carefully to reduce risks.

Longtec Prolonged Release Tablets should be used exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional. The dose is based on the level of pain, medical condition, and previous pain treatments. It is usually taken at regular times to provide continuous pain relief throughout the day.

The tablets should be swallowed whole with water and should not be crushed, chewed, or broken because this may release too much medicine at once. Try to take each dose at the same time each day for the best effect. Do not change the dose without medical advice.

Longtec may cause side effects such as sleepiness, constipation, dizziness, or nausea. Avoid alcohol and sedatives unless approved by a doctor. Regular medical reviews help ensure the medicine is working safely and effectively.
