I don't know about Oxycottin, but I definately know from experience and reading that narcotics in general can GREATLY slow down your bowels. At one point I was on quite a bit of Percoset and I found I had to keep myself extra hydrated and used natural aids such as prunes to help keep my bowels functioning at even minimal level.
