Yes it contains 30mg or Oxycodon ot is not a very entended relaease tablet but usuallt these pills are made for a time of 8-12 hours.
As far as frequency of use is concerned that should be done according to what is prescribed by your doctor. Dose should not be changed by the person himslef because there can be dependency problems. With time body stops responding and dose has to be increased and on the other hand dependency can be there so I would suggest you to use it according to prescription.
