For Chronic Pain "I'm so sick on these new pills I got at Walgreens. I've been on generic Percocet for many years, and now I'm going through terrible withdrawals from this brand named MFG Camber. I agree with the others on this site - there is something wrong with this brand. I can't even get myself out of bed. It is making me shaky, nauseous, and unable to function. I'm about ready to go to a hospital if I don't start feeling better. Plus, I'm sweating like I've never sweat before. Don't get these Camber generic Percocet...you will be sick as a dog."

For Pain "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 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."

For Pain "I am taking Percocet 10's 4 times a day for severe back pain (post 2 spinal fusions, sciatica in both legs, and 3 knee surgeries). 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."

For Pain "I have several chronic back conditions: herniated disc, moderate spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease, and kyphosis. I have been taking 5/325 mg Percocet, 3-4 tabs daily for almost 2 years now. It relieves probably 80% of my pain and allows me to function. Most of the itching, sweating, nausea, etc. disappears after about a month or so of use. As most people noted, take the minimum strength needed to relieve your pain and take only as directed. At 61, I'll probably be on these the rest of my life, but at least I can function. I have found Percocet to work better than even Morphine, at least in my case. Highly recommended for chronic pain."

For Pain "I had a total knee replacement at the age of 32. I have to say that I was in nasty pain 8 out of 10, and Percocet helped me tremendously. I can actually sleep now and rehab more effectively. I wake up every couple of hours at night and have some cold sweats as well, along with cotton mouth, but I think it's worth the pain relief."
