My Doctor upped my Oxycontin dose from 10mg to 20mg. The Pharmacy only had 10mgs so they told me to take two at once to equal the 20mg. Will this change how the medication works because it is timed release?

Thanks! Sorry for my mispelling. Guess I shouldn't type with a plate of food in my lap. LOL
