There are two main types of morphine. Oxycodone and oxycontin. MS contin is another name for oxycontin which is the time release long acting form. Oxycodone is the short fast acting kind used for break through as needed pain control. The mscontin form is the kind people usually will take daily for primary pain management then they usually have the quick, short acting kind, oxycodone, for break through pain. Hope that clarifies your question
