Percocet (Oxycodone) 10mg

What exactly are oxycodone and percocet?

Oxycodone is a semi-synthetic opiate created by altering thebaine, an organic molecule found in opium.

Oxycodone is available in several forms. This includes:

immediate-release pills and capsules (Oxaydo, Roxicodone, and Roxybond), which are immediately absorbed into the circulation

extended-release pills and capsules (OxyContin), which are gradually delivered into the bloodstream oral solution, are used for pain management in persons who cannot swallow tablets and are commonly supplied via a gastric tube

Oxycodone works on your central nervous system (CNS) to inhibit the sensation of pain. Percocet performs the same thing, but it also contains acetaminophen, a non-opiate analgesic that also reduces temperature.

Because of the acetaminophen component in this combination medicine, patients with liver impairment or who consume high amounts of alcohol may be at increased risk of liver damage. This opioid is frequently used for addictive purposes and can readily lead to dependency.

Percocet (oxycodone/acetaminophen) can cause sleepiness and interfere with your ability to think, react, and focus. Do not drive or engage in activities that require concentration until you know how this medicine affects you.
