| 5 | herniated disc with muscle spasm | Tired, groggy, nauseated, vomiting, euphoria, sedated and calm feeling | percocet is wonderful, but it mmust only be taken for the shortest time needed as it can be very addicting if you are not careful. It does work very well on pain. | F | 35 | 10 times | 2/14/2008 | 5 | wisdom teeth extraction -4 impacted | drowsiness, very mild nausea | This was a life saver. I slept the entire week, and had very mild nausea but not much. I also had no problem comming off the drug, no side effects and I was only 16. Would use percocet again for any major sugery if asked. | F | 16 | 1 weeks | 3/4/2008 | 5 | Post Herpetic Neuralgia | Side effects- itchy, but that can be said for most narcodics.. a bit drowsy.. | Wonderful for helping with the pain. But you must not drive etc.... | F | 46 | 3 weeks | 12/28/2007 | 5 | severe back pain, 2 herniated discs | A little more energy if I stayed awake, but if I was in bed, I slept peacefully for once with NO pain. | I have EXTREME back pain at night during the time when I should be relaxed. The pain is so bad, that it was waking me up from 1 am to 4- 4:30 am - and then I was working a full time job during the day. I never believed in pain medicine before this, but I needed something that would help because Advil wasn't cutting it. My doctor is wonderful. I only 1 at night before bed if the pain is bad - and it carries me through the night. Otherwise, I don't take it any other time, because I've heard stories about people becoming addicted to pain killers, and that scares me. | F | 35 | 90 days | 5/18/2005 | 5 | to get high | I get really itchy on my face, irratable, moody, abusive, turned on, talkative, sometimes tired, lack of interest in things i used to enjoy, addictiveness, loss of appetite, "loopy", scared, really intense dreams, out of it, and i pretty much hate the world | Percs are my life blood! I got addicted last year because i had a really bad appendectomy. I have not been sober one day since Febuary 4, 06 and it is now march 14, 07. Percs ruined my life. I am already a very easily addict and i know i will never get off it. that is okay with me since i am a druggie anyways but honestly if you know you might get addicted, please dont do it! | F | 15 | 1 years | 3/16/2007 | 5 | Ankle surgery (2-inch screw ) | (With Percocet 5-325) Mostly sweating, slowed breathing and all-over itchiness. My stomach churns, and when reading I get nauseous. I have crazy dreams, sometimes not sure if I am awake or not when I have them. Constipation is serious issue, and pain relief lasts for about 6-7 hours. If I took two within 5 hours of each other, my breathing slows to a scary level, and I am uncontrollably drowsy. Mild hallucinogenic effect if I took too many in a short amount of time. | After being on Oxycontin, Vicodin and Morphine, I have found that Percocet has allowed me the most functionality with pain relief. With Oxycontin, I would sleep for 8-10 hours at a time, and on Morphine I felt like I could run a marathon (not good on a broken ankle). Vicodin allowed NO pain relief, so Percocet is a wonder drug! No comments on whether or not I have been addicted, because I am currently on the drug. | F | 19 | 7 days | 3/31/2007 | 5 | Gout | Some Drowsiness | I have occasional Gout and was presribed this medicine by a Dr. when I was out of town. Have been prescribed vicodin by my regular Dr., but the percocet worked SOOO much better! Are there reputable online sites where I can get a prescription AND buy the medicine together? I am in the US. Thanks! | F | 32 | 10 days | 9/30/2007 | 5 | post op pain | Sleepy (of course) | I'm not much of a pill taker, but after taking percocet, I can tell understand how people get addicted to this stuff. It was just this wonderful, floating, happy feeling. Oh, and it took away the pain too. | F | 36 | 1 months | 9/26/2007 | 5 | Shoulder/Neck pain from golf | Didn't notice any bad side effects..felt euphoric and slightly stoned, felt great | Worked great for the pain, and made me feel in a better mood overall...Only needed a 1/2 pill at first, but u get used to the dosage, and now take 1...only lasts about 3-4 hrs though... | F | 49 | 7 days | 6/13/2007 | 5 | kidney stones | Severe nausea without zofran or on an empty stomach. Became somewhat talkative. Room would spin out of no where on some days. Constipation when taken for a few days in a row. | Two pills, while making me feel like crap, took care of my kidney stone pain. I can not take this stuff without an anti-emetic or I would be up puking all night. I never had a dependence or withdrawal symptoms with this drug despite having chronic kidney stones on and off for a year. | F | 31 | 4 days | 11/16/2007 | 5 | Endometriosis and Ectopic Pregnancy | 1. Mood: Makes me happy with life and generally enjoy everything and everyone. 2. Takes about an hour to kick in, but dulls the pain enough to make it tolerable. However, pain comes back about 2 to 3 hours after taking pill. 3. Constipation, but this is not a factor when I drink enough water. 4. Extremely comfortable sleep. | This medication is highly addictive. I take it for about 4 or 5 days a month and find it very difficult to put down once I pick it up. I end up giving it to my husband and having him hide it from me until the next month rolls around. | F | 34 | | 11/14/2007 | 5 | L-4, L-5 disc, compressed nerve | Constipation, eventual tolerance where it doesn't relieve pain as well, occassional headache (may not be the perc?) | Works well for lower back pain, doesn't help with nerve pain. Although taking it for over a year, I don't have to take it every day if the pain is less. No noticable withdrawal effects, but prefer to take. Allows me to consistently participate fully in life without chronic pain. | F | 52 | 19 months | 11/10/2007 | 5 | Chronic back pain, kidney stones | Slight euphoric feeling when I first started taking it, but that subsided after a week or so. I also got a little bit more energy, which was a plus. As with any opiate, it may make you a bit nauseous when you first start taking it, but eating a light meal with help until you get used to it, although taking with food will reduce the effectiveness. | Percocet 5/325 has been a lifesaver! I've regained my quality of life and am now able to work and spend time with my family. Before I took Percocet, I was grumpy because of the chronic pain and even got on my own nerves. | F | 37 | 7 years | 6/16/2007 | 5 | post ankle surgery | Constipation, euphoric feeling followed by extreme drowsiness | I love this stuff! It is very addicting though, and I needed to be weaned off of it. I would recommend this to anyone who suffers from chronic pain; vicodin stopped working for me long ago. | F | 34 | 3 months | 12/6/2007 | 5 | Back Surgery | Nightmares, Sleepy, Headache | I have taken this medicine for a week, but am now having nightmares. They are so bad I can't get back to sleep. My nightmares are heads floating of people I know includnig myself and my mother who has been dead for 26 years now. The little girls faces are cute and then they start having things come out of the sides of their head. Very strange. | F | 49 | | 10/28/2008 | 5 | back and hip pain | none | had to be careful about building up a tolerance but without it the pain was intolerable. | F | 49 | | 9/8/2007 | 5 | Bulging disc | Constipation, bloating | This medication is a life saver. Going to work everyday without this medication would be impossible. The pain is excruciating because the sciatic nerve is involved. I have to take one around 5:30 in the morning and sit for half an hour or else I can't stand the pain trying to get ready for work. I take one in the evening around 6:00 and I am good for the evening and overnight. This medication allows me to continue working. | F | 61 | 3 weeks | 5/10/2007 | 5 | Knee surgery | Itching, muscle spasams, nausea | Percocet worked very well to relieve my post-op pain, I was on lortab at first and it did absolutely nothing. It is really addicting though. | F | 17 | 2 weeks | 12/18/2005 | 5 | pain from car accident | groggy next day- similar to hangover but not bad | helped the pain where other meds would not; only been taking a few days | F | 38 | 3 days | 10/22/2006 | 5 | chronic syatic nerve damage | I find it to be the miracle drug. I've taken it on and off for years. The cyatic damage is so severe, without it I can't stand more than five minutes before the pain is totally out of control. My doctor has suggested a morphine implant, but I refuse to go forward with it. I don't have any side effects, I don't get fuzzy or any of the side effects your viewers have listed. I do suffer from constipation, but with the right diet I can resolve the problem. I don't take percocet to get a high, I take it for pain. I find if I totally relax for a day, I don't need it at all. I can find relief with advil. However, I cant spend my time on my butt, so I find percocet to be my choice of drugs. Doctor's told me four years ago I'd be in a wheel chair within two years, so far, I can still get around. I'm 70 years old and truly feel those that get a high from this drug, don't need it! When you suffer from severe pain, you don't get high, just relieved and able to function. Joy | F | 70 | 4 years | 1/27/2007 |
