Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: I been suffering with migraines for months now. I tried the over the counter meds none ever works. My doctor gave me migraines medicines still never works and I decide to go to the E.R. and they gave me Percocet 5/325 and it was great. It's a great pain killer ever.
Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: I take 2 x 5mg pills for kidney stones. It's like morphine it will make you lightheaded and dizzy. Constipation is a problem with this medicine too.
Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: Highly recommended! No side effects beside the slight dizziness that can be expected with any opiate (always make sure to take it with a bite of food!). Works great, but you'll have to taper off your dosage little by little so you don't experience withdrawal symptoms when you don't need it anymore.

Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: It does very well for pain; I have fibromyalgia and it works for me. It allows me to be able to keep up my 4 active boys; ages 15, 10, 7 and 2. The only reason I don't give it a 10 is that is works quick, but it completely kills my appetite. I otherwise love this medicine.
Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: When I first began taking Percocet 5/325 for disc protrusion L5-S1 I became very constipated. My doctor prescribed Polyethylene Glycol a powder for oral solution. This is Malox and it has been a God send for me. I am no longer constipated since about 6months ago. Just take it as prescribed and it truly works.
Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: Percocet is the only medicine that gives me relief from chronic back pain, sciatica, trochanteric bursitis, fibromyalgia, and restless leg pain. I don't even waste my time on any over-the-counter medicines. Been using on and off for about ten years. I can quit anytime I want without any withdrawal symptoms. I'm very pleased with the way it works for me!

Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: I've been on it for about 2 years for chronic back pain and it works great. The only problem I see is my doctor has to keep upping my dose because after a while it doesn't last as long.
Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: I am recovering from last weeks shoulder surgery (scope without repair). My medical team used a nerve-block as they performed the procedure. I was sent home the same day with percocet 5/325 as my pain reliever. My doctor's nstruction was to: "make sure you get the percocet into your system before the nerve-block wears off." I complied and my pain is managed well.

Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: Finally something that works. I was given this for pain expected after surgery. I only needed to use it twice but I have a neurological disorder and it relieved the pain I was experiencing from that. My neurologist had tried me on everything but this for my pain. I use on occasion for when I really can't take the pain any more

Percocet 5/325 (acetaminophen / oxycodone) for Pain: I have chronic back pain. I take this medication as needed. This medicine has allowed me to go back to enjoying children, gardening, camping, etc. I have small children so this medication really helps with pain while allowing me to be fully functional as well. Doesn't make me loopy or nauseous. This has been a wonder-drug for me.
