Acetaminophen / oxycodone "This medication has been a lifesaver for me. I have lived with pain my entire life. Only after the birth of my twins did it become something I could not live with. Every joint and muscle in my body feels like someone is stretching them out with saver pressure. I am not able to sit still because of the pain, but the more I move, the worse it gets. Frustrating. I cannot take Advil/Aspirin. I could not live nor take care of a family before this medicine. I have no side effects except relief. I am so thankful this drug has literally given me my life back, and I have no side effects, good or bad."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I'm 19 and have chronic TMJ joint pain and clicking. I get spouts of breakthrough pain that disables me from talking, eating, and other things that require mouth movements. I recently had the worst pain ever in my jaw and had to go to the ER. Was given Percocet 5/325, and it took away my pain COMPLETELY and helped tremendously. I've tried Vicodin in the past, but it didn't help my TMJ as much as Percocet does."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I have taken Lortab 10/325 since 2008 for severe DJD and rheumatoid arthritis. It became ineffective. Dr. recently started me on the Percocet 10/650 mg. It has worked so much better controlling my pain."

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."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I recently had a 9 mm and 7 mm kidney stone between my kidney and bladder. Too large to pass, so I had to have a stent placed to prevent blockage while waiting a week to go back for the procedure to break up the stones to a passable size. I had been given several types of pain meds through I.V. while in the hospital, including some that were very powerful, including Dilaudid among others. I was sent home for 5 days while waiting for the procedure and was given Percocet 10/325, 1 every 4 hours. Without it, I couldn't have tolerated the pain. Also had very limited side effects, nothing like what the I.V. meds caused, and I felt much safer taking it versus the other more powerful meds. I would recommend this to anyone suffering from kidney stones."

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 said on the bottle, but I think I need to do it every 5 hours. Hopefully, that's okay 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 anyway."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "Had an elbow arthroscopy a month ago and was prescribed Percocet for the pain. I have to say I was severely disappointed that it didn’t do its job. Granted, this could’ve been for many reasons (my body reaction, the procedure, the actual strength and dosing), but nonetheless it didn’t touch my pain whatsoever."

"My doctor gave me a prescription for 5/325 oxycodone. I have pain issues from time to time, and oxycodone works well for me. When I went to my local Walgreens to fill my prescription, I was given pills from a different company. The company's name is Camber. These pills are bad!!! Do not accept them, and for sure do not take them!!! I took one pill at 6 am, and it made me sick until about 6 pm. I then had a horrible headache. The next day, I could still feel this poison in my body. This company's version of oxycodone is unacceptable! And downright criminal. Camber sucks!"

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I was prescribed Percocet 5/325 for a displaced distal radius fracture. It was great at helping to manage the pain until I could have surgery to implant hardware to keep the fracture in place and dealt with post-op pain well too. Vicodin was the MD's original choice but leaves me wired and sleepless. I've only used this for 4 weeks and am now down to just one tab at night. The primary side effects I've noticed now are some pretty extreme GI distress but have been told this is normal. All in all, this has been a very painful injury, and I'm not sure just what I would have done without consistent pain relief. I do suggest using no more than necessary."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "My finger was partially amputated and reattached. Vicodin didn't help the pain, but Percocet is excellent. I only take a small dose, so the pain is not wholly gone, but I don't care once I've taken it. It has made this manageable, and I sleep well, too."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "Without my Percocet, I couldn't have performed most of my daily functions. I had severe pain due to a herniated disc in my lower back. Usually, I take one Percocet at bedtime with one or two Flexeril (muscle relaxers) in order to sleep without being awakened by pain. In between (i.e., while I'm at work), I use Tramadol with Soma to manage the pain of sitting at a PC all day."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "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!"

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."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I've had two knee replacements since 2005 (same knee) and two surgeries on foot for Morton's neuroma. I've had nothing but problems with both and have been in moderate to severe pain since 2005. After my doc tried several medicines for pain, the only thing that has worked was Percocet. I've been on it for several years, however, I quit for a month and a half, and now I'm back on it. I'm taking 3 a day, and it's absolutely amazing how I can work and function normally while on this. I also believe that not only does it relieve the pain, but I'm alert and have so much more energy, and I'm able to remain productive at 60 years old. I sleep like a baby at night too. Great stuff."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "These generic brands are not working. I complain with pharmacy, doc, FDA, MedWatch, anyone that will listen, even call the head pharmacy of LSU in Louisiana. They don’t care! I don't know what else to do! Hydro's don’t work either! I guess I go to heroin or find some fake pills from Mexico! Ha ha, everyone should file with the FDA, MedWatch, their doc, pharmacy, etc!"

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "When diagnosed with a kidney stone, I was prescribed Percocet 5/325 to manage the pain. A warning that if you don't keep ahead of the pain, it is hard to get back under control. I took a dose 2 hours late, and it took 6 hours to get the pain reined back in. Take it properly, and it keeps the pain manageable."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I have a primary brain tumor that has spanned the midline (glioblastoma multiforme GBM4). My prognosis is I have just 6 months to live. I was prescribed Percocet 5/325 while in the hospital to recover from brain surgery about 1 month ago. I take (4) pills per day (2) at a time. Can I become addicted?"

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I have a total hip replacement and a fused ankle due to a motorcycle wreck. So far, this medicine has helped. I give it around 8.5. The side effects I have had are that it makes me sleepy, but other than that, it helps."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "Double knee surgeries for sport-related injuries and when I tore the meniscus on my right knee. It was a weekend, and my knee swelled 2 times normal size. The doctor sent me off with Percocet to get through the weekend, and although it didn't cancel out the pain, it was certainly manageable until I could get to my ortho."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I had my tonsils out a little over a week ago at the age of 30. My doctor prescribed Percocet for the pain, and although it helped my severe throat and ear pain almost instantly, it was very hard on my stomach. After 2 days, I had to stop taking it due to the amount of nausea I was experiencing. As a pain reliever, it worked wonders, just be sure to eat before you take it to avoid an upset stomach."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "They really need to make this easier to obtain in small quantities; the quality of lifestyle improvement cannot be exaggerated. I suffer from neuropathy, herniated discs, etc. I break pills in half and take 2 times a day to keep a lid on pain without making me loopy. The only drug or natural treatment that works, and I've tried many."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I am 73. I could not exercise due to arthritis pain. I was advised to have my knee replaced but was not willing because of many other medical problems. I was fearful of further strain on my body. Percocet (5/325) allowed me to return to swimming laps 30-40 minutes a day and to walk 30-40 minutes a day. I only take it before exercising. It is wonderful. My strength has increased and my arthritis is better. My knee has stabilized to some extent."

Acetaminophen / oxycodone "I have tried many different pain medicines, and this one seems to be the best at temporarily taking away my pain and making it possible for me to continue to work. All Percocet 5 mg, 7.5 mg, and 10 mg work better than much stronger pain medicines like OxyContin."

"I received my Camber T194's from Walgreens, like many, for pain after hip surgery to remove hardware inserted when it was broken. In between, I had an appendectomy, so this was my third time taking Percocet (generic) but first time on T194s. I immediately got extremely ill, nauseated with a headache and unsteady on my feet. I also developed pain in all of my arms and legs, making it hard to use the walker. My surgical pain was not relieved very much. I tried to return the prescription, just asking not for my money but to get credit for not using it. Walgreens said that was not possible, so I couldn't get another prescription."
