Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I want you to know that oxycodone is the prescription drug and it’s an opioid. So, if you took it and doctor is pissed it means you took it without his permission. Oxycodone is semisynthetic opioid as is morphine but the potency is less than morphine.

Now nyquil is simple OTC medicine with acetaminophen and dextromethorphan so that is not a problem but oxycodone is. Don’t use it unless prescribed by a doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Shafi Ullah Khan
