Use, or dispense?
I've had two Achilles tendon surgeries, and for each surgery I was prescribed a fair-sized bottle (30?) of oxycodone. So that's about 60 tablets that were dispensed to me. I've taken probably less than five. Why not just dispense five? Because it's a bureaucratic rigamarole to dispense oxycodone, so they just dispense more than you require and let it go at that.
