| 5 | mellow feeling | was great! | F | | 1/2/2001 | 5 | S/p quadrupal wisdom tooth extract. | Dizziness, lightheadedness, difficulty urinating. | M | 20 | 5 days | 6/19/2001 | 4 | stomach pain | edgy & ichy | F | 41 | 3 days | 3/29/2002 | 3 | post-surgery | anxiety | I wasn't all that satisfied with the effects of the drug. Allthough it did in fact kill any pain, it also killed all other peripheral senses. I found that I wasn't comfortable with the overall effects of the drug and requested to be discontinued from it and switched to something else. | M | 38 | 1 months | 3/29/2002 | 4 | break through back pain | constapation | M | 29 | 2 times | 5/7/2002 | 3 | Broken,leg&neck+fractures | none | helped decently still had some pain,I just had to rest alot and take percocet 2pills every 4-6 hours | M | 24 | 6 weeks | 5/27/2002 | 5 | chondromalacia patellae | drowsiness, itching, drymouth, shallow breathing,and restlessness. | I was prescribed this medication shortly after my first Vicodin prescription ran out. I find Oxycodone to be a much more effective pain reliever than Hydrocodone(Vicodin, Lortab). Be sure to drink lots of water to get the full effect of Oxycodone and to prevent constipation. A very excellent medication for moderate pain. | M | 23 | 1 months | 6/20/2002 | 2 | Back pain, wisdom teeth operation | Vomiting | If you're sensitive to this medication you probably can't take anything with coedine in it. Its a great pain killer, I just can't take it. I tried it off and on (5 mg), even with phenergan, the nausea just wasn't worth the benefit of its properties. | F | 21 | 10 days | 8/13/2002 | 5 | Pain after tubal surgery | Extreme drowsiness, fatigue, nausea/vomiting (espcially when taken without food), loss of coordination. | Despite side effects, did a lot for the pain! | F | 17 | 1 months | 11/17/2002 | 4 | back pain | none | M | 46 | 1 months | 11/23/2002 | 5 | chronic pain due to IBD | percocet relieved all my pain symptoms, very effective but VERY addictive, which wasn't realized till I tapered off it. Terrible insomnia and mood swings. Percocet eliminates the pain, so you feel you can do more physically, but remember the pain is still present along with the physical problem, so take it easy. | F | 35 | 3 weeks | 2/9/2003 | 4 | back pain | didn't really have any side effects at all. | most of the time need to take two to relive the pain. it doesn't completely go away just makes it bearable. | M | 46 | 5 weeks | 2/13/2003 | 5 | fibromyalgia | none | they helped me with everyday pain, but for breakthrough pain, they were less effective | F | 44 | 2 days | 3/4/2003 | 4 | Jaw pain | some drowsiness, itchy | worked great for the pain, felt great while on it, is very addictive, used on and off for a couple of months | F | 33 | | 3/27/2003 | 2 | After gallbladder surgery | Percocet made me itch all over. I could not tollerate the itching long enough to sleep. | I was told by my pharmacist that since percocet and lortab make me itch that I can't take vicodin, percodan, darvocet, tylenol w/codeine, etc. | F | 28 | 2 days | 4/27/2003 | 2 | Fibromyalgia/Migraines | stoned, difficulty voiding bladder; constipation; buzzing in ears. | Took 1 to 2 hours to work, if it worked at all. This drug seemed to completely lose its potency with me after only 3 days, so I stopped taking it. | F | 27 | 3 days | 4/30/2003 | 4 | Endometriosis | Itchy attacks and a skin rash | Percocet worked better than Tylenol 3 with chronic pain from endometriosis. | F | 29 | 2 weeks | 5/21/2003 | 5 | Chronic Back Pain | Constipation, Euphoria, itching, and pain relief | I think Percocet is on of the best pain relievers around. I notice a bunch of dentists prescribe it for extractions and root canals. Doctors usually do not like prescribing these unless you are in legit pain. I'd rather take the than Tylenol #3 or #4 because they don't bind you up as does the tylenol. These pills are very addictive and should not be taken by people who have habitual drug problems | M | 37 | 4 months | 6/3/2003 | 5 | | 6/27/2003 | 4 | | 9/2/2003 |
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)
