I googled for percocet and constipation. and am grateful for the info on this site. Here is the full story, hope it helps someone else. Had Knee replacement surgery 1 week ago. 3 days in hospital, all OK so far. came home. used percocet 5/325 for pain. had to use 2 every 4 hours to get relief. NOTE 1 every 2 hours did not work, after talking to doctors assistant, you need to take 2 to "overwhelm" the pain receptors. Fast forward 2 days. Took 2 Tablespoons milk of magnesia, and 1 D.o.s. stool softener. I don't think she took near enough water. Stopped taking the Percocet that evening, next day, SEVERE constipation and hemorrhoids from straining in previous days. No help from Doctor. No help from Emergency room, other than come on in. Here's what finally worked. Fleet saline enema. that just hurt because of salt??? fleet mineral oil, about 1/3. not much I think she was so plugged up that nothing would have much effect re-filled the | 4 days | 9/3/2008 | 4 | | 9/2/2003 | 4 | | 6/9/2004 | 4 | | 6/9/2004 | 3 | 1X day | 8/1/2014 | 3 | | 1/25/2005 | 2 | Pain for wisdom teeth extraction | Insomnia, constipation, itchy head. | I don't like it. The first dose I took helped with pain and relaxed me. After that it didn't work and I was unable to sleep the entire night. I tried it again the next night and I hear I sit at my computr at 4am wishing I could sleep. I don't get it...thought it was supposed to make me tired. Lame drug. Oh...the itchy head thing was annoying. Again...lame drug. | M | 2 days | 8/29/2009 | 1 | Total knee replacement | I only take them when the pain is unbearable. It stopped the pain - BUT - severely impacted ability to sleep. When sleep finally came I had bizzare nightmares, waking up in a panic and shouting. Needless to say, trying to work the following day was a disaster. It has happened 3 times - I'll not take another one. | M | | 1/23/2009 |
PERCOCET (ACETAMINOPHEN; OXYCODONE HYDROCHLORIDE): This combination medication is used to help relieve moderate to severe pain. It contains a opioid (narcotic) pain reliever (oxycodone) and a non-opioid pain reliever (acetaminophen). Oxycodone works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain. Acetaminophen can also reduce a fever. FDA Approval Date: 2001-11-23 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)
