    Hydrocodone and oxycodone are two different things. Oxycodone is also known as OxyContin. Vicodin is a mix of hydrocodone and tylenol (acetaminophen). Is that what you were thinking of? If you want to know whats actually IN hydocodone you would have to look at a break down of its chemical structure. Hope that helps.

    Oxycodone is an opiate analgestic with acetaminaphen. It alters your pain perception, or inhibits ascending pain pathways.

    if I'm not mistaken, it's anacetametaphene and codeine (pardon my spelling, I'm not near a dictionary)

    i think it is its own chemical, with carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
