It contrasts with tone, in which pitch variation does distinguish words. So when your voice rises at the end of a question, that is technically called intonation. Inflection has two meanings: it can sometimes mean intonation, as Dictionary.com shows: modulation of the voice; change in pitch or tone of voice. However, Wikipedia defines it exclusively as the form of a word, and not the sound:
Is there a generic equivalent of OxyContin? Actually, oxycodone is available genericallyâjust not in a form that is equivalent to OxyContin. The generic oxycodone on the market is an immediate-release formulation, whereas OxyContin is 12-hour extended-release tablet. Since a pharmacist can only substitute a generic that is identical in activity to the original brand name drug, generic oxycodone, in its current form, cannot be substituted for OxyContin.
OxyContin doesnât contain acetaminophen. It is pure oxycodone in amounts much larger than in Percocet. In Canada, OxyContin pills come with 10, 20, 40 or 80 mg of oxycodone. Just one OxyContin pill can have the same amount of oxycodone as 16 Percocet pills. With OxyContin, only part of the oxycodone is released when the pill is taken. The rest of the oxycodone has been coated so that it is released into the body slowly. This is how OxyContin relieves pain for so many hours.
