APAP is shorthand for acetaminophen.
the dose of acet is 325 mg and the 5 is the amount of oxy, same with vicodins. ASAP is aspirin.
As far as I know, ASA is aspirin

To answer your question. Oxycodone 5/325 APAP contains 5mg of oxycodone and 325mg of acetaminophen (tylenol). APAP is an abbreviation of acetyl-para-aminophenol - the chemical name of acetaminophen.

Very nice reply Sable.
Hi pampgh, I don't really understand your answer. Oxycodone w/APAP is generic for percocet 5 (meaning 5 mgs. of oxy) and yes APAP is for acetaminophen. Now this is where you lost me propoxyphene is generic for Darvon. That would mean if he had a script for Darvocet, that would be propoxyphene w/APAP (acetaminophen) Thanks Fall Queen
What does the second p in APAP stand for? I'm curious, haven't been able to find this information.
