Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "This medication works great for pain and it absolutely changes your mood, which is how people become addicted to it. I think oxycodone should be used as an antidepressant because it works much better than the one I'm taking, but I'm not a doctor. This medicine works awesome for pain, I highly recommend it. I've taken it for over a year and it still works great. I take 2-5mg tablets 3 times daily for severe back pain. Works quickly and has little side effects, makes me a little tired and lifts my mood for sure. Love it!"

Endocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I had endoscopic sinus surgery and took 80 pills in the first two weeks. The pharmacist made me feel like an addict, and made me so mad! Now my pain is reducing a lot, it has been three weeks since surgery and I use only one pill to make it through my work day. I have no side effects and do not want to get addicted, but it really helps A LOT with pain control and lets me function instead of cry and whine."

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I was prescribed this medication for relief from "gallbladder attacks," until I could have my gallbladder removed. I have taken Norco 10/325 previously for a bulging disc. Percocet is far superior in pain relief, time between doses, and fewer side effects (in my opinion)."

Endocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I was in a very bad car accident in 2009, needless to say I've been on pain medication since then and have been given everything from hydrocodone to fentanyl patches to OxyContin. I'm only 27 so its hard to be doped up and tired all the time. And it was either nausea or headaches all the time. My doctor put me on Endocet 10s about a year ago and they are the absolute best thing for my pain. My tolerance isn't rising quickly either. I'm very pleased so far with this medication, no negative side effects aside from very mild bathroom troubles."

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I think endocet are the best pain medicine I have been on pain medicine for 15 years I have 3 crushed disc in my back and they can't operate because I have a bad heart I was driving 400 miles round trip to get them that is how much I think they are much better than any other brand"

Percocet 10/650 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "You have to remember, with an injury pain can be your friend. I've been taking 10-650 for years off and on and just because it says to take once or twice a day doesn't mean you have to. Pain reminds you that the injury is still there and gives you limits that stop you from making it worse. "

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I had a herniated disc, and at 23 years old all my doctors were hesitant to prescribe it to me. Finally one did and it was amazing how fast and well it took the pain away. I just had a lumbar fusion(L5-L4) and Percocet helped with my recovery pain. Definitely a good medicine, but take as ordered and stop when the pain is gone."

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I was on different doses of Vicodin for 2 years and I was having pains in my side from all the Tylenol and damaging my liver. I was switched to Percocet and it has been awesome. I take 3 x 10/325mg a day and I have osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia. I am only 24 so it was hard to find a doctor who would actually treat and listen to me and not think I was a drug abuser because of my piercings, age and tattoos. This medicine decreases my pain my 80% and with my Voltaren Gel I can get 90% relief. I have a 5yr old daughter and without my medication I can't take care of her or myself. I just sat around crying all day in pain. Now I can cook, clean, do activities, go on outings, run errands and do everything I did before."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "Prescribed for pain of a large ulcer on my foot, 10/325 x6 a day, it definitely provided relief until I recovered (2 months). Tapering and stopping was crummy but somewhat relieved by clonidine, neurontin and a short course of ativan. A potent pain med tho, definitely works!"

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I had knee surgery last week and I wouldn't be able to go through the recovery without Percocet. Before the pain was really frustrating. I would wake up at least every 2 hours at night because I would subconsciously move my knee. I feel its effects within 15 minutes. Although some pain is still there, it is quite minor, and very manageable. It works."

"I take generic Percocet - 30@5 mg every 6 months so I'm not a heavy user. My former generic pills worked perfectly. Recently I had Walgreens fill the prescription & I discovered that their new manufacturer, cambra, has a product that turns blue , even when stored properly in the bottle, is less effective in controlling pain & causes stomach issues, headaches & nausea. I experienced these side effects, and a quick look where this pill was rated, the majority of reviewers reported similar reactions. I researched why the pills turn blue. ( I thought I had been given counterfeit pills or molded pills). A blue dye has been inserted to prevent misuse, but I can't see how that would deter them. I read the FDA as of 2017 will not approve of dyes for the pills due to reactions such as what I had., Why would a respected pharmacy like Walgreens carry such an inferior & potentially dangerous product? Many have reported these issues so I know they are aware."

Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I've had to be on it for about 7 years because of an auto-immune disease. I have deteriorating bones. It's the only medication that I have found that will at least make my pain bearable. It has been a life saver for me."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "Percocet seemed to be the only pill that would help me while I was dealing with the pain from 2 herniated discs in my back (pre- surgery.) Although it couldn't take even close to all the pain away, it did help significantly. I was taking 10mg/ 4 times a day, and I was still in significant pain, but it worked better than advil, hydrocodone, and dilauded. Now post- surgery, I only take it for breakthrough pain."

Roxicet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I was prescribed Roxicet 5-325 for pain relief after major abdominal surgery and I have to say this was amazing! I've never had such complete relief from any medication before. One tablet every 4 to 6 hours kept me completely comfortable. It made me a little sleepy, but that was fine given that I was recuperating from surgery. It would probably not be suitable for me to take while working. The only real side effect I experienced was a little nausea, which I learned to minimize by taking it with food. Overall, the most effective pain medication I've ever used."

"After trying all of them, Actavis and Mallankroft are the only ones that work for me. I got lucky just now, normally my Publix carries the Alvogen brand, which even two at once provide minimal pain relief. I just took one 10/325, and when I picked it up from Publix, it happened to be Mallinckrodt. I just took one to make sure they are good, and they are old-school soft, work fast, not hard ineffective tablets like other generics. It's for dental work next week, so at least I know I have a few pills that will work. And he gave me the 10/325 instead of the 5 mg, which last time from the same pharmacy at Publix, they gave me Alvogen brand and they didn't work nearly as well as these. I'm thinking because instead of 5 mg, they were 10 mg, they gave me the good ones. Plus, I've been at that pharmacy a long time, and I think maybe they give the good meds if they really know you're going to be in pain, like dental work or a broken finger, etc. I'm just happy now and don't have to worry, as I know these work."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I was prescribed Percocet for a foot injury. It was a lifesaver. Percocet dealt with the pain and helped my mood at the same time. I have noticed others' comments about its help with mood, and I have concluded that there is a correlation to its efficacy and anxiety. "

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I had oral surgery and was prescribed Demerol which made me feel sick not to mention I could still feel the pain somewhat. I.called the doctor who then prescribed Percocet 10/325. Not only did it knock out the pain completely but the side effects were practically non existent. Just a little sweating and and kind of a warm feeling but I could function like normally. I didn't feel out of it like the Demerol made me feel. All I can say is it worked perfectly for me."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I have an infected tooth with a dead nerve that needed a root canal. I got half the root canal done and need to wait for the infection to clear up. I'm taking major antibiotics but it's still taking a while and I'm in a lot of pain. The percocet has helped immensely. I waited too long to take it last night and had to take a trip to the ER for morphine! the morphine was not much different than the percocet. My problem was that I waited. I have been taking one every 6 hours which is says on the bottle but I think I need to do it every 5 hours. Hopefully that's ok to do. I'm also on 800 mg of ibuprofen every 6 hours. I have not experienced any nausea but yes,I guess i am constipated but i have only been eating soup any way."

Endocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "Husband has been on Endocet for 7 years. It was the only narcotic pain reliever that works for him. He refuses to accept other generics as they do not work as well for him. I am sure body chemistry plays a roll in which med works for each individual. For him, Endocet is the best."

I am having a partial knee replacement in 4 weeks. This medicine works great, with only one exception, it causes severe sweating, mostly at night."

"Percocet 10/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: I am hoping to start a discussion about manufacturers. I have this from Amneal Pharma and it sucks. Someone else posted that they had Camber and it sucked but the one from Mallinckrodt is good. I have another med from Camber and it is also bad and switched it to Aurobindo and had no issues. For all of you let's post the manufacturer of the RX you were given. It will be listed on the bottle. Maybe we can find out who to avoid."

Percocet (acetaminophen / oxycodone) "I was prescribed this for pain following brain surgery. Take with food to prevent nausea. To avoid constipation, I took each dose with a stool softener and drank apple juice. Works good on the pain. But you do feel a little loopy on it."
