OxyContin is the brand name of a time-release formula of oxycodone produced by the pharmaceutical company Purdue Pharma.[ 11] It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 1995 and first introduced to the U.S. market in 1996.[ 11] By 2001, OxyContin was the best-selling non-generic narcotic pain reliever in the U.S.; in 2002, over 7.2 million prescriptions were written for it, for total sales of $ 1.5 billion.[ 11] An analysis of data from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration found that retail sales of oxycodone " jumped nearly six-fold between 1997 and 2005."
