    Default Percocets

    I have a question to ask, can percocets be cut in half? The reason I ask is the percs I have are scored down the middle on one side and has TEC on the other side. I just want to know because if I can just take half of one when I need it they would last me longer.

    My doctor prescribes me 60 a month as well as Oxycontin 5mg. With percs I can drive if I need to. The Oxycontin 5mg makes me drowsy and I can't drive.

    Yes they can because they're immediate release, that's what the score is for. Controlled release meds are never scored, and of course should never be cut in half.
    Dalejr, they don't call them percocet there in Canada do they, isn't it Oxycet?
