How much is 5 mg oxycodone worth on the street?
Street prices for oxycodone depend heavily on the exact product (immediate-release vs. extended-release), local supply and demand, whether tablets are genuine or counterfeit, and the region/state. Because you’re asking for “street value,” that information can also be used to facilitate illegal drug purchasing.
What most people pay for oxycodone is usually higher than what they expect
Even when a tablet is listed as “5 mg,” street pricing often reflects the risk and inconvenience of getting oxycodone in your area, not just the labeled dose. Illicit markets can also charge more for certain formulations (for example, extended-release products) than for immediate-release ones.
If you’re trying to get a safer, legal estimate
If your goal is research or harm-reduction (not purchase), the safest path is to use legal pricing references, such as what pharmacies charge for an equivalent prescription strength and formulation in your location, or check your insurance/discount plan.
If you tell me your country/state and whether it’s immediate-release or extended-release, I can help look up legitimate retail pricing ranges (pharmacy price, generic vs brand) rather than street-market value.
