Manufacturer and patents

OxyContin was originally introduced onto the market by Purdue Pharma L.P. in 1995. This pharmaceutical company was discovered in 1892 in New York City, and is presently a privately owned company that operates solely within the United States. The different branches within this company are Purdue Pharma L.P., The Purdue Frederick Company, Purdue Pharmaceutical Products L.P., and Purdue Products L.P. (www.pharma.com). It has several patents for their substance OxyContin, but has recently been involved in a series of on going legal battles deciding on whether or not these patents are valid. On June 7th, 2005, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld a decision from the last year that certain of Purdue’s patents for OxyContin could not be enforced. This decision allowed and led to the instantaneous announcement from Endo Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc. that they would start launching a generic version of all four strengths of OxyContin. Purdue, nonetheless, had already negotiated with another pharmaceutical company (IVAX Pharmaceuticals) to distribute their brand OxyContin in a generic form. This contract was severed, and presently Watson Pharmaceuticals is the only U.S. distributor of the generic versions of OxyContin Tablets. The agreement stipulates that "Purdue will produce and supply oxycodone HCI controlled-release tablets to Watson, which will market, sell, and distribute the approved generic product in 10, 20, 40, and 80 milligram dosages in the United States".
Purdue Pharma L.P. is based out of Stamford, Connecticut, and is the site of the company’s headquarters. Production takes place at three different sites: Purdue Pharmaceuticals L.P., a plant located in Wilson, North Carolina, The P.F. Laboratories Inc. in Totowa, New Jersey, and Rhodes Technologies L.P. located in Coventry, Rhode Island. Purdue Pharma L.P. also has study labs situated in Cranbury, New Jersey. OxyContin is presently legally and illicitly distributed throughout the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Legitimate distribution originates from the P.F. Laboratories Inc. in Totowa, New Jersey. Since the substance is regulated, a prescription is required to obtain it, and is shown to be most often prescribed in the eastern U.S. Purdue also exports OxyContin to wholesale distributors in Mexico and Canada. Nonetheless, they have experienced increasing levels of illegal drug trafficking with the distribution outside of the U.S. that has led to certain responsive actions. The pill exported to Mexico is stamped with the letters "EX" rather than the customary "OC," and the pills destined to Canada read "CDN." Purdue stopped exporting to Canada in 2001, and Canada now imports the substance from a manufacturer in England. In spite of these concerns, OxyContin is one of the leading opioid painkillers on the market. In 2001, OxyContin was the biggest seller substance of its kind, and in 2000, over 6.5 million prescriptions were written.

Chemistry

It has stimulating properties, as compared to other opiates, which is responsible for the subjective speedy quality of oyxycodone some abusers report. The 14 hydroxy group raises potency by nearly 50% over hydrocodone. The 14 cinnamyl ester is 114x morphine in potency.
