Is All MS-Contin in Sustained Release Form?

[Asmodeus]

Is all MS-Contin in the sustained release form? If not, then how can I find out if the pills I have are or are not SR (there doesn't seem to be anything on the bottle to indicate either way)? Also, is Roxanol oral liquid morphine in SR?

The ones I posted about mine, the label on mine says "Morphine Sulf 30MG tab SA-(this is from what I read (SA means extended release)
That's what mine says, I believe that there is another 2 letters that mean extended release. Someone else might be able to tell you for sure, take a look at your label and search on the internet for what you medicine is, there should be a ton of pages to find further information, if so needed.

Contin means time released, anything with the word contin after it such as MS contin or oxycontin is going to be time released.

Yes, all MS Contin is time release, hence the name, Morphine Sulfate CONTINuous Action/Release ... but not all Morphine Sulfate is...

Roxanol is immediate release.
