Hello, Jenny! How are you?

It would be equivalent in the amount of Oxycodone, but you'd be getting double the dose of the Acetaminophen. Taking too much of it in a day can result in fatal toxicity, so you have to be careful not to exceed 3,000mgs a day and no more than 1,000mgs per dose.

The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

It's best to stay away from the extra Acetaminophen, if you can and just take one of the 10/325mg Percocet, unless your doctor instructs otherwise.

Is there anything else I can help with?
